cry woman found subject to the re-
gistration will be sent to the United

The officials in Kenosha will not have
any authority to register a woman
after eight o CLOCK tonight. Their au-

far as to send all who they find have
not registered to the marshal at Mil
waukee.

HAS high PLACE IN DIOCESE
Blood Reds and True Blues Vie With
Each Other for Honor of Raising the
Most Money to aid the Congrega-
tion for Future.

Members of st. George Congregation
started a great drive on Tuesday to
raise a fund Of $4,000 to provide for
the payment of AL the Indebtedness
Of the congregation and to provide a
fund for improvements. which are to
be made when the time is ripe for such
improvements.
In the next few days every member
of the congregation is going to get a
chance to contribute something in
cash or by pledge to this great fund
for the congregation and of course the
fund is going to be raised. st. George
Congregation never failed to meet a
call made upon it for the church and
it is not going to fail this time.
The congregation has been thorough
ly organized for the drive and the
Blood Reds under che direction of Adam
Zeyen are contending with the True
Blues under the command of Michael
F. Iens for the honor of doing the
most to bring to successful conclus-
ion this drive for funds for the con-
gregation. All the close of the first
day Of the solicitation on Tuesday eve
ming the reports showed that cash and
pledges to the amount Of ten thousand
dollars had been brought in with the
Blood Reds leading by neck in the
race.
The total Indebtedness of the con-
gregation is not large considering the
large number of members and it is ex-
pected that provision for this indebt-
edness will be made before the close
of the drive this evening. During the
coming ten days the drive will con-
tinue to provide the funds necessary
for the improvements planned for the
future.
st. George Congregation is one of
the strongest of the church organiza-
tions in the city and it is made up of
an intensely loyal membership which
has made it possible for the congre-
cation to keep pace with all demands
that have been made upon it. Old ST.
George Church was one of the first
places of worship in Kenosha and from
a small membership back in the
pioneer days the church has grown
until at the present time it numbers
among its members more than six hun
dred leading families Of the city. II
has been one of the most progressive
F.. congregations in the Milwaukee diocese
and the present drive is being made
that the congregation may be free
of debt and have funds to hold its
proud place in the rating of the
church.

WONDER WHO'S KISSING HER
NOW.

81 wonder who s kissing her now,
I wonder who's teaching her how:n
fThey are in the gathering darkness
the soldiers who are singing this.
1t is in Picardy, just backeof the great
battle line and ON the road these
same soldiers must hold to turn the
German armies back from Paris, -
writes Fred S. Ferguson to the News.
GA nightingale adds it's song. The
air is heavy with the smell of apple
blossoms. The buds on the trees are
rapidly taking the form of leaves.
Along the crooked little street that is
the backbone" on which the low,
quaint little houses of the village are
built, come other boys from home. =
CT wonder who's buying the wine,
For the lips that / used to call mine;"
"The song goes on. These other boys
join the group. 1t is like a gathering
of neighborhood pals at the corner
drug store to try out little harmony.
But they are leaning against the cold
stone of an old peaked roof French
stable and house. The military police
waves the traffic of war by, as it is a
cross road, and regulations are strict.
Caissons, wagons loaded with forage,
ammunition and supplies roll by.
There is an occasional whine of a
shell as the enemy artillery begins to
Timber up, but with more voices join
ing in, the song goes on:''
81 wonder if she ever tells him of me,
| wonder who's kissing her now.''

COUNTRY MERCHANTS
MUST HAVE LICENSE

Dealers in Poultry and Eggs who Sell
Them at Wholesale Must Have License
Under Ruling of Food Administrator.
Country merchants who buy poultry
and eggs from their customers and sell
the same again at wholesale are re-
CURED to secure license under the
ruling of the president made public,
May Ia. This class of merchants
whose business is mostly retail have
never considered themselves as opera
tors of poultry and egg packing plants
but the food administrator says that
they are.
In regard to this matter the food
administration has issued this state
ment:
''The Presidents proclamation of
May IA, requiring the licensing of
those engaged in certain lines of bust
ness, including operators of poultry
and egg packing plants not already IL
censed by the United States Food Adj
ministration," has been misunderstood
| by some of those affected.
"Under this classification anyone
who sells poultry or eggs in any other
way than at retail to the consumer,
regardless of the amount of business
done, must be licensed.
"There are many country store
keepers whose business is mostly re-
tail selling, but who buy eggs and
sometimes poultry from the farmers.
! They have never considered themselves
as operators of poultry and egg pack
ing plants, but, in reality, that is what
they are. The fact that they are in
the retail business on too small scale
to require retailers license does not
alter the case. In order to comply
with the law they must all fill cut
blanks obtained from the United
States Food Administration and have
licenses issued.

that the summons card which is be-
ing sent to every resident of the city
and county is an exemplary order.
eve want to get the fellow off the
fence said he. Eve want to know
where he stands. If he is out and out
for Germany we want to know it and
know where to place him and want to
do with him. But we don t know where
to put the fellow who sits on the
fence
Secretary Francis then paid tribute
to the Girl Scouts and told what great
work they have been doing in this
campaign. He admonished the mem
bers to buy largely and explained that
as no one could purchase more than
1000 that therefore there should be a
large number Of buyers. He also told
them that flags would be presented to
the counties having the largest per cent
of sales and that Kenosha had never
yet let a flag go by her.
The matter was also discussed by
George s. Whyte and Mrs. Mary D.
Bradford and it was decided that
employees of the factories could
register there.
The street car matter then was taken
up and Secretary Francis reported that
he had talked to the secretary of the
Wisconsin Railway Commission who
gave him no satisfaction other than to
say that the matter was now in the
hands of the court of preparation and
that he would telegraph him today
as to the disposition of it,.
A communication from James Bailey
in regard to building houses for Ke-
nosha's increasing population, was re-
ceived with favor.
In discussing this matter George S.
Whyte stated that his factory was hit
harder by the discontinuance of the
street cars than any other in the town.
That they were going to build num-
Der of houses near the factory, but
the lack of street car service will be
a great draw back.
The matter of the jitney ordinance
coming up on the suggestion Of Mr..
Whyte, the question was submitted to
the vote of the entire membership of
the body and the secretary was directed
to send out questionnaires at once.
The question of park concerts was
taken up and after some discussion by
President Dan o. Head, G. w. johnson
and others, it was suggested that the
Common Council be asked to appropri-
ate $4,000 for this purpose.
The Chamber decided to put float
in the Fourth Of July parade and Fred
Dunnebaeke offered to donate the truck.
David Korf was appointed chairman
of a committee to decorate it.
E. L. Grant, chairman of the Kenosha
branch Of the National Dry Federation
was present and submitted the matter
of endorsing wartime prohibition to
the Chamber and it was decided to
submit it to a referendum vote along
with the Chamber action on the
jitney ordinance.

FOUR SONS IN ARMY.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Bedore to Send
Fourth Son to War
Friday.

In the ranks of those who leave here
Friday with the june quota will be
Frank Bedore, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Bedore of 726 Pearl street,
and his going away is going to mean
q good deal more to his parents than
to the average sparents Of conscripts,
because he is their fourth son to go to
war. Bedore enlisted some time ago
but was rejected because of weak eyes
and now is happy to go with the selects
and join his three brothers two of
whom are already on the field Of bat
tie.
His departure is going to leave big
gap in the already lonely home, but
his parents are proud to make the SUI
preme sacrifice and will send him away
with smile.

GOOD PAST RECORD
WINS TWO PAROLES
Chicago Boys Arrested on Charges Of
Attempting to Steal Automobile
are ParoIIed to Their Parents

Norbert ]. Cullens and Walter Hell
delmeier, the two Chicago boys picked
up here last Thursday night on charge
of attempting to steal an automobile
belonging to DR.. s. W. Murphy, have
been parolled to their parents in Chi
cago. Relatives of the boys came to
Kenosha and convinced Judge Tullg
that this was the first time that the
boys had ever been in any sort of
trouble and that the parents were per-
fectly able to see to it that they did
not get into trouble again. 1t was
on the recommendation of DR.. Murphy
that the court directed that the boys
be turned over to their parents. They
returned to Chicago at once and they
will make reports to the Municipal
Court there for a year.

Red Cross Fire

About seventy comfort kits have not
been turned in and as the kits must be
finished this week, allowing time fol
putting on the fasteners, it is impera-
tive that they be turned in Immediate
".
Several women have left completed
kits at the headquarter without nam IS
on them. Every kit is charged to
someone so if you have brought yours
up and have forgotten to notify the
officials, do so at once SO that they
may keep their records straight. The
work on the kits has been excellent
this month and it is hoped that those
who have been in the habit of re-
spending to the calls for helpers will
not turn deaf ear to the next request
which will soon be forthcoming.

Registrations for the Red Cross group
in the July 4th parade are coming
along fine and the officials are hoping
that by Friday every woman who has
ever done any work for the chapter,
no matter how little or in which de-
partment, will be registered to march
for the cause in the great demonstra-
tion ofNloyalty. Any information re-
garding the parade can be had by phon-
ing the Red Cross (2o7). Chairmen of
the units and branches, especially
those in the county townships, are
urged to round up their workers for
the event. Every unit ought to be well
represented.
+
Junior Red Cross members will not
cease their efforts during vacation.
While they were in the schools they
could be reached more easily but or
ganization work among the children
has gone so far that the chapters are
still closely in touch with them and
benefting vastly by their help.
At present many chapters are ask
ing the Junior members to help get out
some rush orders for knitted articles,
comfort bags and hospital supplies.
They are doing this in preference to
their regular Junior work.
Any Junior Red Cross member who
has lost contact with the Red Cross
organization since school closed should
go to the local chapter headquarters
and offer his or her services.
Of course, any child not now mem
Der of the Junior Red Cross will be
cordially welcomed by the Red Cross
chapters and given an opportunity to
enroll.
