delightful weekend dance. Grosve-
nor s Hall is fast becoming the most

most valuable assets.
Many of the boys in khaki, who are

change, for Kenosha has not been for
tunate enough to be able to entertain
many Of these men.
Several Of the girls units Of the

were on hand promptly at eight O'Clock
to help in the entertaining, and soon
after the first strains of real "jaz2
music" were to be heard.
Mrs. J. Frank Chesebro was hostess
and the chaperons for the different
units, were on hand to see that ey-
cry one had good time.
Skating, healthy diversion and ex.
ercise proved another added attraction
that helps to bring the many uniformed
men to Kenosha each weekend, and
this was no exception to the rule
Skating is preferred by many of the
boys to dancing, and those who care to
skate, can do so on one Of the most
perfect skating floors in tho state.
Many Of the girls units were also
present here, chaperoned by the heads
Of their units.
That popular institution the Army
and Navy Club was the scene of gay
party. Dinner was served on Saturday
evening, and the club was fairly jam.

gives the club touch that is hard to
obtain. Through the silent but ener,
getic efforts Of many Of Kenosha' 8 re-

Children Freeze
For Want of Coal
Will Some Kind Hearted Kenoshan
Give the Associated Charities a Coal
Heater for Mother Of Five Orphans

Do you folks who use city heat re-
member how you ,swore around when
you woke up one comparatively cold
morning about two weeks ago and
found the heat was off and it would be
a day or two before the repairs could
be made so that it could be turned on

your own furnace remember how you
tear down the patch when the janitor
sleeps too late some mornings and
does not have your apartments warm
enough for you9
How would you like to be forced to
face the winter without sufficient heat
in your rooms to keep yourself, your
wife and your children from freez-

Well, you people who read this may
thank your lucky stars that you do not

not so happily situated as you. Some

Right here In your home town Of
Kenosha which you proudly call the

children who are suffering from the
cold right now because they have not
the means Of buying a stove. They
need stove that will burn soft coal;
a stove big enough to heat two rooms
and they have not the money with
which to buy.
This widow has asked the Associated
Charities to furnish her a stove and
when Acting superintendent Elizabeth
Timme went to inquire the price of a
stove she found they were SO high
that even the Asgocieted Charities did
not have enough money on hand to
purchase one.
The next thing to do was to put the
matter up to the good, warm hearted,
kind, Christian people of Kenosha and

where who has a second hand stove
which they will give to this poor wo-
man.

Triest and Dalmatia. He spoke of the
valid assistance given to the allies by
Italy, pointing out also that in part
it was due to Italy if France won the
first battle Of the Marine, and that it
was due to Italy If the Russians were
not badly defeated in Galicia, and that
it was due to Italy if the remnant Of
the Serbian people and of the Serbian
army were saved. Captain Del Lungo
also spoke of the suffering of the
Italian people, during the war, a digni-
fed suffering, without complaining,
knowing that the Italians were doing
their part, their duty in crushing auto
cracy and in the hope Of redeeming
their oppressed brothers and the OPP
pressed nationa1ities. He spoke of the
marvellous work done in Italy by the
American Red Cross. He said: ftWhen
the boys in khaki arrived in Italy, I
could not see them, because was in
the hospital; but / was there long
enough to appreciate the work of the
American Red Cross. Those nurses
were angels, and we shall always re-
member with gratitude what the
American Red Cross did in order to
alleviate our sufferings and the suffer
ing Of all our people. After I came
out Of the hospital, T Travelled, not only
in the northern part Of Italy, where
the war was being fought, but also in
the southern part Of Italy; and IN every
little town where I went, ! always
heard some one talking Of the Ameri-
can Red Cross It had penetrated all
the small places, and had done whole
lot Of good that will never be for
gotten
The speech Of Captain Del Lungo was
often interrupted by prolonged ap-
plause. Many persons in the audience
were seen with tears in their eyes,
when the captain spoke Of the suffer
ing Of the soldiers, and Of the atrocities
of the Austrian soldiers.
Mr.. Antonio Ferrari, editor Of the
italian newspapers, i Idea, of Chicago,
was the last speaker in the program.
With warm and convincing words, he
told the audience of the dire need Of
the redeemed population Of Trent and
Triest and asked that the Italians of
Kenosha be generous in helping their
redeemed brothers.
A collection was then taken in the
hall, which Melted the sum of 1915. In
all, during the day, the italian socie-
ties, Giuseppe Garibaldi, San francesca
di Paola, San Michele, and Rocca Ber-
narda, under the valiant direction and
assistance Of their presidents, Messrs.
Raffaele Molinaro, Raffaele Niagara,
Luigi Bosco and Lorenzo Poerio, have
succeeded in collecting the neat sum Of
$65850. This sum was turned over to
Capt. Del Lungo, to be forwarded to
Rome, to the committee Of assistance
for the people Of Trent and Trieste.
