The Good Old Dollar.

American money today may be
cheap, but it is sound. Every bank
note, every silver or nickel or copper
coin, is worth \ts fact value in gold.
The Importance of this fact is seen
when attention is turned to foreign
money.
The depreciation of European cur
rency is due not merely to big war
mortgages and unfavorable trade bal
ances. 1t is due also to the fact that
European money had become so large
~ fiat money! or stuff which pur-
ports to be money but is not sound, be-
cause it is not exchangeable at face
value for gold and silver.
In the countries whose rate of ex-
change has fallen most this evil is
found at its worst. Theodore H. Price
editor of Commerce and Finance, says
he cannot advise anyone to buy Ger
man marks even when they are selling
at about one-tenth of their normal val
ne, because "we do not know how rap
idly Germany is increasing the circu-
lation of the mark, = Whoever buys
marks on exchange he says. sis facing

PIONEER WOMAN
CALLED BY DEATH
Mrs. Catherine O'Brien
Died At Home of Her
Daughter Early This
Morning.

Mrs. Catherine McDavitt O'Brien,
aged "a years, widow of the late Mich
ael O'Brien and mother of the late
James III: O'Brien, for many years al
derman Of the first ward, of Kenosha,
died at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
John O'Donnell, 553 Congress street,
just after four o'clock this morning,
following a long illness due to declin-
ing years. Mrs. O'Brien was one Of
the oldest residents of Kenosha and she
made her home in the city continuously
since 1843.
The deceased was daughter Of the
late James McDavitt and she was born
in Londonderry, Ireland, December 4,
1925. She came to this country in 1910
and after a three years residence in
New York state she came to Southport
in 1913 and she had since resided here.
For many years she was very prom
inent in the work of st. James Church
and parish. She is survived by three
daughters, Mrs. John O'Donnell, Miss
Oella " bflen, Oh henoSna, ana MIS-.
james B. Devlin of Denver, and by one
son, Thomas 0 'Brien She is also sur
viyed by several grandchildren, among
them George and William O'Brien, and
Richard, William and John 0 Donnell,
all of Kenosha, and Mrs. Morris Nc
Cabe of Milwaukee.
The funeral services will be held at
the st. James Church at nine clock
Thursday morning with interment in
the family plot at the St. James GEM
etery.

Work for the Health Service.

A well-meaning woman writes a let
ter to newspaper containing sugges-
tions for cutting down expenses. She
gives recipes for indigestible messes of
stale bread cubes 'sfried with meat
scraps, put away in bag until need
ed for an escalloped dish, y or "just
the thing for breakfast or lunch.''
And having paved the way for the
doctor by feeding her family in the
worst possible manner, as appears be-
tween the lines Of her letter, she con-
cludes: Too many home makers raise
the cost Of living by calling doctor
for any little i'll, when some common
remedy may be on hand at all times,
thereby saving all such bills.o
The fairly intelligent reader of pa
pers and magazines sometimes wonders
why manufacturers of some patent
medicines continue the type Of adver-
Using which urges their wares for
every known ill and some unknown to
the best physicians. "Surely everyone
must know by now thinks the fairly
intelligent reader, "that drugs are use
less without hygenic living. Surely
everyone must know what foods are
good for growing families, that to
dope sick child with stuff whose
properties you know nothing, to neg
lect the doctor s call that may prevent
serious illness, is not only extravaganza
but criminal
But the intelligent reader is wrong.
The world is still full of men and wo-
men who know no more of food values,
or money values or health values than
the writer of this letter. Else why
should she write and great newspaper
publish it in good faith9
The visiting nurse, the wide-awake
ealth officer, losing no opportunity to
publish his beneficent doctrines, the
physiology and hygiene course in
school-these are needed in every com.
munity if the new generation is to
have it due of health.

CONGRESSMAN RANDALL
POPULAR AS ORATOR
Kenosha Man Speaks at Memorial
Service Of Plainfeld, New Jer-
sey Lodge of Elks.

Congressman Clifford E. Randall is in
demand in the east as public speaker
On December he delivered the mem
orial address to the Lodge Of .Elks at
Plainfeld, N, j. The Plainfeld Cour-
rier Times speaks of Congressman Ran
dali s speech in part as follows:
" Congressman Clifford E.. Randall,
Past Exalted Ruler of Kenosha, Wis,
Lodge No. 750, the memorial order, in
an exceptionally strong address, paid
tribute to the long list of members of
Plainfeld Lodge who have passed be-
yond the grave.
In an eloquent way the speaker re-
ferred to the. cardinal principles of the
order, charity, fidelity, justice and
brotherly love, the combination of
which, he said, led. all members of the
order, to live out a higher standard Of
manhood and citizenship than was
otherwise possible. He referred to the
spirit of Americanism which marked
the progress of the organization through
out the country, iand its unwavering
stand in favor of the government and
its institutions, of which the Elks, as
citizeps, are part"

The Russian ruble has suffered still
more from printing-press initiation. Ev-
en- France and Italy, Mr.. Price init
mates, are not free from this evil and
their rate Of exchange inevitably reg
listers the effect. Their own people
at home may take the new money at
face value, but other nations will not.
And even at home it soon depreciates
sending up prices enormously, unset
Ting all values and driving real money

So cherish the little old dollar, de-
spite the comparative contempt into
which it has fallen. It may not be
worth much, but it is worth more than
any other money unit in the world.

turned, according to the story of the
attorney, Bogwilo was talking with
the little girls.
I'm Going to Fix You.''
The attorney said that as Mrs. Bog
wilo entered the house she said. with
an oath: Are you here YETI III fix
you. Baker told the jury that the
evidence would show that the wife
went into the bedroom and that when
she came out Bogwilo thought she had
a revolver and that she shouted at him:
. You leave the house or you go on
like dying dog"
Then Memory Failed Him.
The attorney declared that the testi
mony of Bogwilo would show that he
had no memory of what followed but
that he believed that the shooting took
place IN the house. He said That after
the shooting Bogwilo left the house
and threw the revolver on an ashpile
in the alley. He said that no effort
was made to conceal the weapon and
that after wandering about the town
for hours Bogw;lo went to the sheriff
and surrendered himself. Bogwilo wept
as the attorney told the story of his
domestic unhappiness to the jury.
Jurors Visit death House,
At the conclusion of the statement
of the attorneys as to what they ex-
peet to prove in the case, the Jurors
were taken to the Bogwilo house ON
Dayton street to view the premises in
order that they might better under
stand the evidence in the case.
On the return to the court, J. William
Homrig, a neighbor who had been at
the house Immediately after the shoot
ing, was the first witness to be calles
by the state.
Witnesses are Called Fast.
The first witness told his story of the
tragedy and was followed by his wife,
Mrs. Homrig, who explained that she
remembered hearing only three shots
In the cross-examination she declared
that they had been fred in rapid sue
cession.
The most interesting witness intro
dueed by the state thus far was Brad
islaw Dubinsky, neighbor of the Bog
wilos, who, in his testimony recalled
the acquittal of Mrs. Auster. Dubinsky
told how he had loaned some money to
Bogwilo and that on one day while the
Auster trial was being heard in the
Circuit Court, he had gone to Bogwilo
and asked for settlement
Bogwilo pleaded for time aud finally
said, according to the witness: "Wait
a little while. If Mrs. Auster wins in
the trial, ] know what l am going to
do. - The witness went on further to
say that Bogwilo had made a settle
ment with him with war stamps and
that he had thought no more of the
incident until the Sunday afternoon
when he heard of the tragedy. At the
close of the cross uestioning of Du-
binsky, court was adjourned until l:30.

We are not greatly interested in
these fellows who want to rail against

cases these fellows are drones in the
work of advancing humanity and their
opinion ism t worth the paper its writ

have the world made better. The men
in the pulpit may not all be doing just
the way lot of us might want them
TO do but just the same everyone Of
