hostesses for a charming dinner party
given on Monday evening in honor Of

comingly gowned as bride. From the
slippered feet of each of these white
camoufaged with lilacs and smilax
AT the conclusion of a most delightful
fve-course luncheon the guests were
told to pull on the ribbons that led
to the plate Of each. Tiny cards were
drawn from the Ilacs about the chan
delier, which when put together, puzzle
like, carried the date of Miss McNama-
ra 8 wedding, Thursday, June 18th. =
The rest of the lilac time !, which
was the party, was spent with bridge
and the usual pre-nuptial music and
conversation.
Miss Mcnamara Is one of Kenosha s
most beautiful and charming young
women. Her fance, 1t. Paul Mccain,
has distinguished himself in the serv-
ice of the United States Army and is
now serving with the Regulars at Fort
Riley, Kansas, where he and his bride

Captain Edward Dayton
Pays High Compliment To
American Soldier In Ad-
dress At Noon Today.
PRAISES TRUCK DRIVERS
Kenosha Captain Declares That TO His
Belief the Truck Drivers Were the
Most Wonderful Men In the Army
Describes ''War Traffic.

1t is well know fact that Ameri-
can speed won the war, y declared Cap
tain Edward Dayton in stirring speech
delivered before two score members of
the Kenosha Retailers Association at
their regular MONDAY luncheon at the
Elks club at noon today. The Keno
sha captain then gave a graphic de
scription Of his months at the front
showing how American spirit had
brought an end to the great war long
before it had been expected by the
European war experts.
" While rejoicing with those who
have come back from over there" said
the Captain, II must first make a 81
lent prayer for those whom we left
over there and for their relatives more
desolate now because of the joyous
Homecoming of so many Kenosha boys.
Remember us if you will, but do not
forget Them
Captain Dayton told in detail of the
exploits Of old Company NJ and explain
ed how the unit had at Camp Douglas
and Camp Macarthur been split UP in
to many branches Of the service and
that as result he had been with the
men whom he recruited but very little
He told of his own experiences in AM
erica and France and how at Chateau
Thierry, SCISSORS and the Argonne, he
had been in charge Of unit which had
carried ammunition night and day to
the front trenches.
To my mind, = said Captain Dayton,
& the truck drivers were the most wen
derful men Of the war. They drove all
night without lights on roads that they
had never seen. They had every hour
narrow escapes from death and they
got back. / don It know how they did
it but they did it time and again. He
also praised the Americans for the
discipline which had marked the Ann
orleans and which had surprised ali Of
Europe.
In telling of his own experiences
Captain Dayton recalled ore incident
when he was seven miles behind the
line He had just ridden up to his lieu
tenant and was giving orders when one
of the biggest shells used by the Ger
man artillery burst less than twenty
feet away. 'SThat was the nearest
came to going west, he said, land it
just goes to show that the boys in
the ammunition train and even in the
Service Of Supply were often facing
death every minute
In closing his address Captain Day
ton emphasized the traffic congestion
that sometimes held up the work of
war and the Importance Of which had
not been emphasized properly HsThere
were miles and miles of crowded roads
worse than the heaviest traffic Of New
York City or Chicago and the fact
that it moved often meant life or
death, = he said in giving brief IDEA
of the situation.

KENOSHA GIRL
QUEEN OF may
Miss Natalie Wilkinson Is
Voted High Honors By Stu
dents of Rockford Wo-
mans College.
WAS CROWNED in STATE

Miss Natalie Wilkinson, daughter Of
Mrs. r. E. Wilkinson, Durkee avenue,
reigned as "Queen Of the May" at
the annual May party recently held on
the campus Of the Rockford Woman Is
College at Rockford, Illinois, winning
what is considered the highest honor
that is given to any member of the
student body Of the college. She reign
ed as graceful queen and received
the homage Of the entire student body
at one Of the greatest parties in the
history Of the annual custom held on
the campus on last saturday
To be Queen of the May at the col
lege is an honor which comes from the
student body. Every year the Queen
is elected from the members of the
Senior class every one Of the more than
three hundred students being allowed
to vote for her Queen.
The result of the ballot is always
kept a profound secret and not one of
the members of the student body knew
until Miss Wilkinson assembled her
throne accompanied by her retinue Of
attendants that she had been selected
for the distinguished honor.
The party is one Of the most beau
tiful social events of the year at any
of the Western colleges and it has
been historic at the Woman s college
at Rockford.
Mrs. r. 3. Wilkinson, mother of the
Queen and Mrs. Samuel c. Newman,
Park avenue, were present at the
browning of the queen on Saturday and
they returned to Kenosha today
The annual commencement exercises
lat the college will be held on June 18th
and Miss Wilkinson will receive her
decree at that time. Her election as
May Queen testifies to her high stand
ing in the student body.

GALA MAY FETE
AT KEMPER HALL
Preparatory Exercises In
gurate Commencement
Season At School Along
the Lakeshore.
MUSIC, ART AND GAIETY
Day Begins With Musicale, contin-
ues With Athletic Drills and Dancing,
and Concludes With Playlet,
''The Silver Thread.

The annual graduating exercises AZ
kemper Hall began on Monday with
series of events, musical, athletic, and
dramatic, all of which inaugurated
the commencement ceremonies most
pleasantly and most auspicioasly.
The gala-day began at eleven O'Clock
in the morning with musicale in the
Drawing Room. This was followed by
gymnasium exercises at twelve o clock
and studio exhibit at three clock.
The latter was especially interesting.
1t presented the girls and young women
of the school in bewildering drills and
dances, all executed with military
accuracy, but with nameless grace
characteristic of most anything done
by the fairer sex.
The Preparatory Exercises concluded
with dramatic sketch entitled 1'The
Silver Thread The quaint little play,
full of Celtic fairness and fantasy was
given at eight o clock in the romantic
atmosphere of a gymnasium bordered
with painted knights and ladies.
The plot of the sketch concerned the
fortunes of little princess, who found
herself most unusually involved with
fairies, gnomes, and a mere man, who
loved her very much. While trying to
extricate herself from the bitter-sweet
web of circumstances that had some
way caught and held her she encount-
tered many adventures and learned
something Of the Truth behind the mys-
teries of life and love. The part Of the
princess was most charmingly taken
by Miss Virginia Voorhis.

SEEK TO PREVENT WARS
BY nx-pRgslDENT WIN. Il. TAFT

II Is not claimed that the League O
Nations will Go away with war alto
geiher. Every possible provision tia
human intelligence can devise will b,
male to settle international dispute.
peaceably. But should all these meas
ures fail and two nations SO to war
this is what will happen:
If both parties TO the dispute have
observed the rules OF the League. tn,
other nations will stand back and lie
them fight it out. War under sucl
circumstances is difficult TO imagin~
however, because before the angry m
ions will be allowed TO fight in az
cordance with the rules OF Tie League
so much time must elapse that in al
probability their anger will cool ant
hey viii reach an amicable under
standing.
What we have TO fear Is that some
aation will so to war in defiance OF
he League, and every precaution has
been taken to suppress such a nation,
oy the immediate use OF the united
bower of the other nations. If inter
rational boycott failed to bring her &c
erns she would have to face u com
lined international army and navy
The founders of the League believe
hat the mere possibility of such @
situation will prevent any nation from
'iolating its agreement. Does anyone
think that Germany would have begun
war five years ago IL she had known
that nearly all the other great powers
would combine against her?
