ENEMY'S PRO .,ERTl
10 BUY LIBERTY BONDS
Post Office Authorities Instructed to
Scour KenosIla for Any UnrepoTt-
ed Enemy Property in Kenosha.


That even an enemy may help to
win the war against Germany was
demonstrated in the latest bulletin re-
ceived by the Kenosna postal authcri-
ties directing that Kenosha be'searched
for any property which might be owned
by enemies in Germany whose property
according to the Trading With-the-
Enemy Act'' is sequestered and adj
ministered by the alien property custo-
dian and wherever possible the prop
erty is converted into Liberty Bonds
to be held until the close of the war.
The bulletin states that it is believ-
ed that there is large amount of such
property in Kenosha- proI ertY owned
by Germans in Germany-or belonging
to heirs in Germany and the appeal is
to help authorities in locating it.
One instance Of the transference of
alien property into Liberty Bonds has
already occurred in Kenosha when re-
Gently the property owned formerly by
Mrs. Lisetta Gleichmann, deceased, and
left to heirs in Germany, was taken
over by the alien property custodian.
Any information which may lead to
the sequestering Of other alien proper
ty in Kenosha will be welcome at the
post office and the locations of moneys
or property Of this kind can be help
ed by the patriotic response of the
citizens, who report the same to the
proper authorities.

Private Gottlieb Herman,
First Kenosha Soldier to
Die at Cantonment Bur-
led at Sheboygan.
WAS ONE OF BABY QUOTA"

Gottlieb Herman the first of Keno
sha s "Selected Men, to meet death
in cantonment, was laid at rest with
all the honors of a soldier at Sheboy-
gan on Sunday afternoon. Letters re-
ceived in Kenosha today announce his
death and burial Herman was twenty
three years Of age and he was one of
the members of the "baby quotao of
three men which Kenosha county sent
to Camp Custer on December 10th last.
He died at Camp Custer on last Fri
day afternoon following a two weeks
illness from pneumonia.
The body was sent to the home of
the soldiers parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Phillip Herman, who reside at, 1415
Erie avenue, Sheboygan, and on Sun
day afternoon they were taken to the
Trinity Lutheran Church there where
a military funeral was held. The serv-
ices ended with the sounding Of taps
over a soldier IS grave at the Lutheran
cemetery. Members of the State Guard
Company at Sheboygan acted as a
guard of honor for the remains to their
last resting place.
Private Herman was born March z,
1895 in Russia. He came to Sheboygan
four years ago and had worked in a
factory there until the summer of
last year when he came to Kenosha
county and worked in the sugar beet
fields in the town of Somers. He was
registered as a resident Of that town
and he was sent out as selected
man. by the county exemption board.
AT Camp Custer he was member Of
Company G Of the a4Q Infantry which

Thomas L. Peterson, of Racine,
sailor in the United States Navy who
was reported as drowned in the Medit-
eraneanan sea appeared in person on
Monday night to insist that the re-
ports of his death were exaggerated.
He came to Racine to spend a furlough
and later he will visit relatives in Ken
osha. He had no apologies to offer
for being alive more than the fact that
the present way of reporting losses
in the service must have mixed him up
with some other Thomas L. Peterson.

MUSICIANS DO MORE
THAN PLAY 'AMERICA'
Local Union Exemplifes the Spirit of
the National Song by Buying 5000
Worth of Liberty Bonds.

Kenosha musicians believe that they
can do more for the cause of Freedom
and Justice than play the national airs
and develop patriotic enthusiasm.
Accordingly they have subscribed
two hundred dollars to be invested in
Liberty Bonds Of the Third issue de-
spite the fact that they have already
done bit of their bit in the
donation of their services for military
gatherings.
"These are only the least things
we can do, said one of the musicians
this morning in comment on the ac-
tion of the Union.
"When men over there are giving
their lives we certainly can afford to
give some of our services and invest
some of our dollars. tt not giving,
you know anyway. It's lending and
saving and most everyone ought to be
glad of the chance to do that. We'll
need the money after the war as much
as we need it now and if it invested
in United States Bonds we re sure to
have it when we want it.
H'Then, too,'' he added, "being mu-
siciars we wanted to get on the band
wagon as soon as possible asd make a
little noise for the Birthday Drive"
