1t. James MilIar Nominated
To Succeed Capt. Thomas
Temple AS Executive of
Company B. w. S. G.
NAME OTHER OFFICERS
LIST Sgt Carl Anderson Named as Choice
Of Co. for Commission AS First Lieu
tenant-Fred surerus Next in Rank
Election Held AT Armory Tuesday.

First Lieutenant James Millar was
the unanimous choice of the guardsmen
of Company B, 9Th Regiment, w. s. G.,
to succeed Captain Thomas Temple as
the captain of the outfit as the result
of the election held Tuesday evening
at the Armory. Other nominations to bel
sent to Governor Phillip for confirm
alton included that of First Sergeant
Carl Anderson to become 1st Lieuten-
ant to succeed Captain Millar elect, and,
Fred Surerus to become Second Lieu
tenant in place of Lieutenant Hugh
Barden, whose resignation has lately
been fled.
Several weeks ago Captain Thomas
Temple, under whose leadership the
company was formed resigned his COM
mission because of the demands made
on his time for his personal affairs.
Since that time 1t. Millar has been In,
charge of the unit and has been exc
ceedingly popular with the men. At
the election on Tuesday evening no 9TH
er names were written on the ballots
on the informal vote and this was then
declared formal unanimously.
Captain-elect Millar is ably fitted to
be leader of the company. For four
years he served as lad-o-the-line and
since his discharge from the navy he
has been active in every military orr
ganization which has been formed mi
Kenosha. He is one Of the foremost
riflemen in the Kenosha Rifle Club and
has been prominent in advancing the
interests of the competitive rifle work
in Kenosha.
First Sergeant Anderson, who wasral+
most unanimously nominated TO sue
coed Lit. Mi1lar, has been peculiarly
successful as "top-kick" in the Ke-
nosha organization. AS a member OF
the Montana National Guard he has
had valuable experience In military
camps and has added to this by his
splendid record since the company has
been organized. Sergeant Fred Sure
rus, who will probably be named to
succeed 1t. Hugh Barden, as soon as
the later's resignation is accepted, has
lately returned from service overseas
where he has attained military
knowledge and bearing which quickly
won him prominence among the guards
men.
A large representation of the mems
bers of Company B were present Tues
day evening for the election. Many Of
the members of the company stood a
little stiff1y at attention due to the
fact that they worked Sunday at the
range clearing it for the opening prae-
tice and they have not yet recovered
entirely from the days work. The
guardsmen plan to open the range for
practice in the very near future and
evidence much interest in the contests
which have been planned.

DISCUSS PROPOSED LEAGUE.
Congressman Randall Speaks on Lea
que Of Nations at Meeting OF
Bar Association Today.

Fifteen Kenosha county lawyers at
tended the regular monthly dinner of
the Kenosha County Bar Association in
the private dining room at the Elks
Club at noon today. Following the din
ner Congressman Clifford e. Randall
made short impromptu speech on the
legal phases of the proposed League
of Nations.
The speaker declared that the docu-
ment would probably meet the approval
of the United States Senate if the
promised amendments would take care
Of the Monroe Doctrine and the rights
Of America to settle her internal pro-
blenAs such as immigration. It was
also pointed out that the first draft
was very indefinite as to the nature Of
what constituted justifable disputes.
The interesting talk of Congressman
Randall was followed by short talks
by other members of the association.
Attorney James Cavanagh emphasized
the fact that the league did not prom
Use eternal peace but merely offered a
way Of settling international disputes.
It is expected that the question will
be further discussed at a later meeting
Of the association.

"S.R.O." is HUNG
out AT CONCERT
standing Room Only" Sign
Is Needed for Shaffer Re-
cital AT the First Bap-
fist Church.
FUNDS FOR sUN-PARLOR

Jerome Shaffer, brought to the First
Baptist Church on Tuesday evening
by the Young Ladies Kensington Club,
proved the truth of the age-old state
ment about the third time being a
charm. His third recital in Kenosha
was that in every sense of the word.
The motive behind the entertainment
"a sun-parlor for Mrs. Corey was
essentially charming, the offer
ings, both the artist s aud the audi
enee's, were charming, and the
crowd, from the standpoint Of the Ken
slngton Club, was the most "charm-
ing" feature Of the whole affair.
To interpret, the Baptist Church -
main auditorium, parlors, and galleries
was literally packed for the concert,
much to the satisfaction of its promo
ters, who are today congratulating
themselves on the ACCOMPLISHMENTS
round simoleons corraled for the par
sonage fund.
1t is not every impersonator can
NN~~N
within a fortnight and make better on
his last appearance than in either Of
the former two; but that is the uni
que achievement Of Mr.. Shaffer, who
held capacity crowd for two hours
and could have held them longer had not
the sheer fatigue of his strenuous arts
try compelled him to blow 3stapso for
himself at the conventional hour Of
ten fifteen. At that his last forma-
ton was greeted with roars of applause
that almost compelled an encore.
The impersonator and baritone s pro-
gram was literally sprinkled with fea-
lures, the most memorable Of which
were his vocal solos, Somewhere
Voice is Calling and elm Always
Chasing Rainbows his pianologue
" just a Wearyin' for You'', and his
reading about the widow Of seven hus-
bands who went up to New York to
see some of her many "folks''.
In his vocal numbers Mr.. Shaffer was
ably accompanied by Mrs. Edward
Glerum, one Of the most talented mem
bers Of the Kensington Society.
AS result of the concert - thank
Mr.. Shatfer and the Kensingtons, who
foresaw his unusual success "the
'ammer, 'ammer, 'ammero on the
south side of the parsonage continued
all day today and prophesied that Mrs.
Corey would actually have screened
porch or sun-parlor - whichever you
care to call it - tswhen the spring
comes back with the ilacs''.

STYLE AND EVERYTHING.
s'The Copper Kettle, Elizabeth st. s
New sweet shop, Has an
Atmosphere ALI It's Own.

Speaking Of atmosphere what
ever that isttThe Copper Kettle !,
the new sweet shop on Elizabeth
street between Rowland and Grover
streets, has 1t.
Even the casual passer-by notices it
from the time he see the simple but
quaint sign until he pays the waitress
for his order. The new shop has a
style which has made it peculiarly
attractive and its service has added
to its popularity.
To begin with there are the rose
hangings at the window which attract
the attention of the most disinterested
pedestrian. They form a fitting intro
duction to the scene inside where
French mirrors and Dutch screens help
to increase the idea that the shop has
a style Of it's own. There is "home-
like' parlor or waiting room at the
front with leather chairs, piano and
fowers-lots of them-that has al
ready become famous among the pat
rons of the shop.
"The Copper Kettle" opened on
Saturday when eleven hundred people
were served. Tt has enjoyed an excel
lent patronage since then and is fast
increasing its popularity among the
people Of the west side. Scores have
already got the habit of taking her
to the Copper Kettle, according to
the slogan of the shop, whenever they
want dainty luncheon or the more
customary chocolate soda or the like.
