Order Bids for New Trucks.
The council declined to buy fire
equipment or police patrol wagon
without getting bids on them and the
members of the committees In charge
were instructed to get bids for the
proposed new patrol wagon and also
for a fire wagon to take the place Of
the present equipment of the north side
engine house. The police committee
had recommended the purchase of a
Pierce Arrow patrol wagon at a cost
Of $1,000 and the fire committee had
suggested a Whittier fire truck at a
cost Of $3.50 but the council said Get
Bids and the matter will come up
again at the next meeting of the coun-
ell. It is proposed to purchase both
of these motor driven vehicles at
once.

work in the city was elected as Super

w. e. Nelson will give all Of his
time in the future to his work as dairy

the street work will continue under
the direction of the street commission
ers.
The council fixed new schedule of
pay for street workers. One man work
ing with each division will receive
forty cents an hour as sub-foreman
and the remainder of the men will be
paid at the rate Of 371a cents an hour.
The hours for work were placed at from
s a. m. to 5 p. m. with the understand
ing that men working with teams will
work as long as the teams are kept
on the jobs.
The salaries of sewer inspectors and
sewer foremen were increased from
four to five dollars day.
| There was much routine work to be
taken care OF by the council. The
{ Aldermen found themselves without an
appropriation to close up the deal for
the proposed coal yard but the commit
tee was given power to complete the
purchase of the site by paying one
third of the purchase price down with
the understanding that the remainder
will be paid at the time the next tax
levy is collected. The plans for the
operation of the yard were placed in
the hands Of the committee in rather
indefinite manner no appropriation be-
ing made for the equipment of the
yards or the purchase of coal.

Can't Afford Pile Driver.

The Council took up the question of
buying a municipal pile driver and
decided that the city could not af-
ford it this year. A proposition for
the sale to the city of pile driver,
skow and launch was made by a
Milwaukee company and the total cost
Of the equipment was little over ten
thousand dollars. Many of the alder
men expressed the desire that the city
have such an equipment and some of
them thought that the city could save
money but that it would be better to
wait for the purchase until after the
war is over.

Advance Big Movements.

The council showed willingness to
advance movements to aid working
women and to bring comforts to Ke-
nosha 3 people and the city's visitors
in the matter of the day nursery for
children was taken up. 1t was present
ed by H. o. Whitbeck, former chair
man Of the board of education who
told the council that the call to wo-
men to work had brought real pro-
b!em of taking care of the children Of
these women He said that the school
board saw the need of one or more day
nurseries which would have the sane
ton of the city but which would pro-
badly find their greatest support from
private sources.
The council showed a willingness to
cooperate in the matter and special
committee composed Of Aldermen
Shearer, Holderness and Gouty was
named to confer with representatives
of the school board and other inter
ested organizations to work out the
plan.
Secretary r. F. Kaiser of the Cham
Der of Commerce made strong plea
tc the council for some action for the
erection of a down town comfort sta
ton in Market Square Park. This
matter was referred to the board of
Park Commissioners with request
that a report showing plans and esti-
mated costs be sent to the council at
it's next regular meeting.
No New Huber Law Ordinance.
The council had report from the
Judiciary Committee and the City At
torney showing that it was impossible
for the council to enact any ordinance
which woul daid in the enforcement of
the Huber Law. City Attorney Slater
spoke at length on the matter and de-
clared that Kenosha could put it's idle
men to work by proper enforcement Of
the vagrancy act He declared that
this was the only way that the big pro

be taken care Of. 1t is probable that
there will be a crusade on the part
OF the police department to get va
grants into court.
The Committee on Building and Wa

council meeting the demand of the
State Railroad Commission and recon-

Last half Hour of Day Is
Most lmportant-Time to
Review and Resolve Anew

The most important period of all
your day is the last half hour.
That 'home stretch" that silent time
when the eyes begin to cloud and the
clock must be wound and the cat be
put out doors.
For life is a business and a Gay is
significant.
Each one of our days is like unto
a certain number in the one great col
umn that makes up your life. And
every figure must be added-some
time.
Do you ever stop to consider how
great is each figure that you add daily
to the great column that is to repre-
SEN the sum total of what you are to
be at the very end?
The last half hour What a time to
think things over. To take invoice. To
review. To resolve anew. To deter
mine-and to will.
And what a time to dismiss all the
little ripples of worry and discomfort.
And to bury every bitter thought, to
resurreet every fine deed done and
every useful effort attempted or &C
complished.
Start tonight to make a chain of
your last half hours. And as the years
roll on, a new and strange power is
sure to accumulated sort of re-
serve strengthen anchor, maybe, that
snail keep you from drifting as some
unexpected storm sweeps its way to-
ward your frail craft.
Also, if you wisely use your last
half hour, like as not you may sound
ly sleep as the storm spends its rage
and passes on.-EXchange.

NEEDS WALNUT WOOD
Government Makes Appeal to
Owners of Trees.
Best Material for the Manufacture Of
Gun Stocks and AirpIane
Propellers.

Observation-Disclosures walnut has
proven, under a four-year test in this
war, to be the best wood for the manu-
facture of airplane propellers and gun
stocks.
Our government will need all of this
wood it can Secur during the continu-
ance of the conflict. 1t cannot buy
either logs or trees, as part of the lum-
Der produced by the log is not suitable
for either of the above purposes. How
ever, it urgently petitions all owners
of trees or logs to sell them 20 one or
more of the sawmills which hold gov
eminent contracts for gun stocks or
propeller lumber. Fight with your trees.
Don't let them remain idle slackers.
Owing to their inability to purchase
sufficient logs the sawmills have not
yet been able to supply the present re-
quirements of the government and its
allies, and as our participation in the
actual hostilities is increasing rapidly
our requirements in this wood are
monthly growing heavier. Every tree
counts. Half a dozen will provide lum-
Der to build a propeller blade and put
a gun stock into the hand of each nan
in the platoon. The lack of one ma
chine in the air or one platoon in the
fight might turn the tide in a battle.
Picture your own son or the son of
your neighbor holding on and fighting
against desperate odds until the com
pany or regiment your trees have
armed can come to his relief. Make
this relief possible. Turn your trees
loose. Wake up and get into the fight.
In this way you will be fighting for and
with him as truly as if you stood be-
side him in battle. And you have nc
right to do anything else. Act quickly.
If you have walnut trees write today
to Capt. R. L. Oakley, production d.
vision, small arms section, ordnance
department, Sixth and B streets,
Washington, D. C. He will put you in
touch with several sawmills holding
government contracts, any n of
which will buy your trees and pay you
a fair price for them.

immigration Promises to
Set New Record-SmalIest
Since the Colonial Days

When the present fiscal year ends
June 30, it is highly probable that 6
new immigration record will be set
the smallest since colonial days, say:
the Washington Herald.
immigration statistics of the frs
six months indicate that the year:
total may be less than 100000 persons
For the half-year ending January 1
1918, only 57,715 came to America, ant
since then the monthly totals have
dwindled to a few thousands.
The war, of course, is responsible
The real dwindling began when the
United States entered the a Since
hat day only one country has sen
anything like the normal number o.
immigrants. That is Japan, which
country now leads all nations in send
ing immigrants to America. Japanese
immigration this year will reach 1900
as against 1925 in 1917, Sill in 1917
and 5000 in 1915. During the frs
half of this fiscal year 6,00S japanese
arrived and they've been coming owe
at the rate of more than a thousand
q month.
Italy, which before the war sen
over seven times as many immigrant:
as Japan then did, this year will sen(
less than a third as many.
Mexico, which sent 16,43S immi
grants in 1917, will send less thai
three thousand this year.
