MEASLES SIGNS NUMEROUS.
Monthly Report of the Health Depart
ment Shows Big Increase in
Disease of Children.

Johnny's got the measles.
Nellie's got the mumps
Something wrong with little Joe
Always in the dumps.
This is the plea of Kenosha mothers
today as the report of the Health de-
partment shows that there has been q
considerable spread in diseases of chill
dren during the past month. The re-
port shows twenty two cases Of measles
the largest number of cases of this dis
ease reported in some time. There are
also four cases of whooping cough,
twelve of scarlet fever and eight of
diphtheria which is held by the de-
partment to be far from really
healthy condition for the children of
the city. The report shows four cases
of chicken pox to poster the children.
There have been no deaths from any
of the diseases in several months but
the number of guarantees is keeping
up pretty regularly.
Smallpox has disappeared entirely
from the city and the health officials
dc not expect a return of the disease
until some time next fall or winter.
The department is making the usual
call upon the parents of the children
to be little more careful with the
children and save them from contagion

er on patriotic subjects at the various
schools in the city and county.
Leading members of the Grand Army
in Kenosha today brushed tears from
their faces as they paid tribute to the
memory Of the dead commander.
"He was man and a soldier, the
idol of the men who served in the
ranks; a man who always placed his
country before his own interests and
"a man who gave unselfshly of his time
and his energies for making brighter
the lot of the men who had served with
him. said one of the leaders of the
post 1T would be impossible to pay
too high tribute to his unselfsh de-
votion to his duty as a soldier and as a
citizen. In his death Fred S. Lowell
Post has felt loss that can not be
over estimated. His loyalty and his
patriotism had done much to inspire
young men to enter the service of the
nation in this trying time and up to
the last minrte of his life he gave the
full mead of DEVOTION
Commander Likes was born on June
7, 1916, at Washington, Ohio, and he
was married to Anne E. Hess on Sep
TENDER 4th, 1886. The Likes family

years later came to Kenosha. Mr..

Angeles.
He is also survived by one sister

Der of the Methodist Episcopal Church

Charles r.. Likes.
Senior Vice Commander Of the Wiscon
sin Grand Army Of the Republic
Who Died Thursday Night


sin Grand Army of the Republic
Who Died Thursday Night.
Civil War, died at his home on Grover
street at eight o'clock Thursday night.
Death came as a result Of an attack
similar to apcplexy which he suffered
while at work at the plant Of the Black
Cat Textiles Company just before noon
on Thursday. The stricken man was
taken to his home in an ambulance and
while members Of the family and
friends had been hopeful during the af-
ternoon a relapse came at the close of
the day and Mr. Likes answered the last
muster just before eight o'clock.
His death has brought deep sorrow
among the members of the Grand
Army in Kenosha and among the
citizens who had known and loved him
for many years.
The death Of Commander Likes marks
the passing of one of Kenosha S and
Wisconsin 8 bravest soldiers and most
patriotic citizens. Few men were more
widely known or more universally re-
spected among the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic. He was
the great favorite of the men who had
served in the ranks during the Civil
War and in after years he had shown
tender solicitude in the welfare of
Athese men. They considered it an
honor to call him "Comrade" and he
took it as his highest privilege to
minister to their every need.
Commander Likes had a notable war
record. He was one of the youngest
men enlisted for the service. He volun-
teered when he was but fifteen years
of age and served six years in the
army, seeing some of the hottest
fighting that was the part of the boys
who wore the blue.
His army record shows that he en-
listed on June 5th, 1861, in Company f
of the 85th Ohio Volunteers Infantry.
He was also in the three years serv-
ice of Company E Of the 122nd Ohio
Volunteer Infantry. For three years
he served under General Phil Sheridan
in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia.
He was under General Grant in the
Wilderness and at Cold Harbor and
Petersburg and at the surrender of Lee
at Appotomatox Court House. After
his service in the army he gave service
in the National Guard in Ohio.
Commander Likes had been most ac-
tive in the work of the Grand Army
in Kenosha and in Wisconsin,. He
served for thirteen years as commander
of the Fred S. Lowell Post and probably
gave more than any other man to the
work of holding the Post together
and toward making it a great patriotic
force in the community.
He was one of the leaders among the
veterans in the state. He had attend
ed many of the state and national en-
campments. He was elevated to the
high post of senior vice commander of
the department of Wisconsin at the
last encampment of the Wisconsin di-
vision held in Kenosha. At the tine
he was stricken he had been making
active plans to have part in the r.
union of the Wisconsin veterans SEIZED
uled to be held in Ashland next month.
His patriotic work was not limited
to the Grand Army circles. He had
been a leader in instilling patriotism
in the minds of the children of Keno
sha and he had been frequent speak
