ENTERTAINMENTS PROMISED.
Company "B" Has Organized a Wei
fare and Entertainment Committee
to Furnish Interesting Programs,

Wisconsin s crack company "B"
6th Infantry met at the Armory Tues
day night 100 per cent strong, and it
was one Of the most enthusiastic and
energetic meetings of able-bodied men
assembled in this county "since the
war
Called together for the purpose of
forming a Company Welfare and En-
tertainment Committee, they went at
things with a vim, and in a short time
had an organization under way that
threw out smoke barrage which, when
it cleared up, showed every man
standing shoulder to shoulder for the
best interests of the Company and
ready for anything that was demanded
of him.
Plans were made to give some high
classed entertainments in the near fu-
ture for the purpose of raising Com
pany fund which is badly needed for
the purchase of Company accoutre,
ments.
Company "B" will go into camp
on July IA, and they will take with
them all they need in the way of camp
equipment, clothing, etc., but it takes
money to buy sugar, eggs, chicken,
ettc., and the boys cannot always live
Oh pork and beans and bully beef.
These boys are not going out beg
ging - not they - they are going to
throw on some splendid entertainments
during this month in order to raise
some needed money and they are sworn
to give their patrons their money s
worth-we all remember the splendid
party they gave On May 14th-they
will do well to duplicate it.
Corporal Charles Neiman was elected
president of the association by I'm.
animous vote and made an appropriate
speech which was loudly applauded.
By acclimation Corporal Pope was
elected vice president and gracefully
acknowledged the honor.
Harry L. Goldberg swamped all op-
ponents for the Office of secretary and
treasurer and celebrated by having the
entire Company as his guests of the
evening.
The entertainment committees pro.
gram will be full of interest and prom
Uses pep and vim.
The Company already boasts Drum
and Bugle Corps, Quarrette and Base
ball team, has developed some of the
best marksmen in the middle west and
has every reason to be proud of its
organization.

ARRIVE SAFELY OVERSEAS.
Hospital Unit No. Is With Kenosha
Boys as Members Arrived Abroad
on Tuesday Afternoon.

Cable messages received in Kenosha
today announce the safe arrival over
seas of Hospital Unit No. Is made up
largely of Chicago men. The report
is of special interest to Kenosha on
account Of the fact that the Unit con-
tains two Kenosha men, Gordon v.
Hackett, son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Clifford
Hackett, Deming street and Gerald s.
Cooper, son of Henry S. Cooper, Dun
movin.
These two Kenosha men enlisted as
volunteers for the ambulance service
many months ago and they were train
ed especially for service with the arm
les in France. The message does not
give the port of embarkation but it is
thought that they will have an early
journey to the firing lines.

GIRL SCOUT COUNCIL MEETS.
Reports Show That Many Kenosha Girls
Have United With the New
Organization.

Members of the Girl Scouts council,
together with the captains of the vari-
Gus troops in Kenosha met at the Coun-
ell Chamber at the City Hall on Tues
day evening to complete the organiza-
tion of the Girl Scouts in Kenosha.
Mrs. Tom Barden, Scout Commissioner,
presided at the meeting Interesting
reports were presented showing that Ke-
nosha girls have taken very kindly to
the new organization. Reports showed
that already twelve troops of three pa
trolls each had been organized and other
troops are ready for organization just
as soon as captains can be secured. The
need of Girl Scout executive, who will
give her time to- the management of the
organization was discussed at some
length and this matter as well as i'm
portant financial qquestions will be
taken UP at later meetings of the coun-
Gil. The Council plans to adopt the
standard uniform of the organization
and efforts will be made to provide
uniforms for the members at the lowest
possible cost.
Members of the Kenosha County
Council of Defense will go to the town
of Brighton this evening to organize
subordinate council there. James
Martin is making arrangements for the
meeting and it is expected that it will
be a decidedly enthusiastic zone.
Brighton has been doing her full share
in all big patriotic movements and it
is certain that, she will have one of the
best subordinate councils to be organ
lied in the county.

son per week. This division is inequit-
able; an understanding of these facts
will justify our request that the con
sumption of all meats including poul-
try, as nearly as possible, be reduced
to two pounds per week per person over
four years of age.
"In the case of sugar, we are en-
barrassed by the necessity of using
ships for carrying our soldiers and
feeding the Allies and in consequence
we must use sugar with great economy.
We must emphasize the Importance of
canning and preserving on large
scale among our people this sum-
mer and our available sugar must be
conserved for this purpose.
F'But the situation with regard to
wheat is the most serious in the, food
supply of the allied world. If we are
to satisfy the minimum wheat require
ments of our armies and the Allies and
the suffering millions of the allied
countries our consumption of wheat in
the United States until the next harv-
est must be reduced to approximately
one-third of normal 1t is inconceiv-
able that we should fail in this crisis.
For each Of US who can personally con-
tribute to the relief of human suffer
ing it is a privilege not sacrifice. All
elements Of our population cannot bear
this burden equally; those engaged in
physical labor need a larger bread ra-
ton than those in sedentary occupa-
tions. Because Of the constant daily
employment of women and the lack of
home baking facility many households
in large urban centers require a food
ration already prepared, such as the
bakers standard victory bread loaf.
Furthermore, we must constantly safe
guard the, special requirements of
children and invalids.
HTo meet the situation abroad and
to prevent serious suffering at home,
it is imperative that all those whose
circumstances permit shall abstain from
wheat and wheat products in any form
until the next harvest. It is realized
and deeply appreciated that many or
CARNATIONS and some communities have
already agreed to follow this plan.
{" 1t is hoped that you will communi-
cate this to your organization and to
your community, urging those whose
circumstances will permit to join with
US and take this stand.
(Signed) Herbert Hoover"

New Plea To Save The Wheat
Advisory Committee of
Tense Makes Plea

AT the meeting of the Woman IS Ad-
visory Committee of the Common Coun-
Gil of Defense, held at the Chamber of
Commerce ON Tuesday afternoon, a
strong appeal was made to Kenosha
women to heed the latest procla-
nation of Herbert Hoover, the federal
food administrator, for the conserva-
ton of wheat.
Kenosha women have periodically
responded to all calls of the nation and
members of the Kenosha committee
believe that this is the most import
ant call that has been made on them.
The proclamation says:
Save Wheat and Wheat Products.
Our boys and the allied armies across
the Atlantic are crying for wheat. The
situation is serious, very serious.
Hoover appeals to us to give up all
wheat and wheat products until the
next harvest. Will you help? You
must or we will lose the fight.
Give this message from Hoover wild
est publicity. Every clergyman is ask
ed to preach it from his pulpit on Sun
day morning. Newspapers are asked to
print the message. Fraternal organiza-
tons, women s clubs and schools will
please read it at the earlier possible
convenience. Copies should be placed
in banks, post offices and stores.
"The confidence of the United States
Food Administration that the people Of
the country would respond enthusiast
tica1ly and whole-heartedly upon pres
entation of the facts to any necessary
requests for reduction in consumption
of food has been fully justified. We
have demonstrated our ability not
only to think together, but to act to-
gether. This response of the people is
the reason for the present appeal.
"Our work is not yet complete. In
spite of the encouraging results of our
efforts, in spite of the fact that our
exports of food stuffs are constantly
increasing and are approaching the
ninimum requirements abroad, the need
for renewed devotion and effort is
pressing While all of the require
ments of the Food Administration
should be constantly observed, there
are certain matters which I desire
to stress at this time.
ftIn the case Of meat and meat pro-
ducts the necessities for shipment
abroad are very great. Whereas the
allied consumption has been reduced to
an average Of about one and one-quarter
per pounds per person per week, we
are today enjoying an average of about
three and one-gaarter pounds ped per-
