Chief Justice WinsIo W
Warmly Endorses Cam
paign Of Wisconsin
Colleges Associated.
drive STARTS WEDNESDAY
Kenosha Is Included In Appeal Made
BY College Heads For Endowment
TO Make Living Wage For Pro.
fessors Possibility.

The campaign to raise funds for the
Wisconsin Colleges Associated, which
will start in Kenosha on Wednesday
and continue for one week, received
official endorsement this morning from
Chief Justice John Bradley Winslow,
of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, who
did not hesitate in giving the move
men this heart test go. K"
~ am and always have been a be-
lever in the small colleges as the best
place for the college student during his
first two years. said the chief JUS
tice today.
He warmly endorsed the 100000
campaign Of the Wisconsin Colleges
Associated. Justice WinsloW continued:
Helps State University.
"Our state university is badly
crowded, and the congestion is increas-
ing with each year. It is my belief
that much of the educational work done
by the university might well be done
in the small colleges, near the students
homes; in particular, their work during
their first two collegiate years.
Further than this, it is true that
the small colleges exercise most ex-
cellent moral and spiritual influence
upon their undergraduates; and they
afford an opportunity to the student,
in his formative years, to mingle re-
ligious with mental development.
Request is Warranted.
"There is no doubt but that these
colleges are performing a task of great
public merit; and there is no question
but that, with the higher cost of all
materials and services, their funds are
no longer adequate either to pay their
professors fair wage, or to continue
to afford their students the equipment,
facilities and conveniences which are
essential in the modern Institution Of
higher learning
"Taking into consideration the fact
that nine colleages will be the bene-
fciaries, $5,OO0,000 is indeed small
sum to ask; and it should be remem-
bered that this is to be paid over a
five year period, so that it really is a
five year series of annual 100000
campaigns, all money to be pledged now.
t'I wish the conduct Of this cam
paign every good fortune

ENTERTA1Ns WAR VETERANS.
Kenosha italian White Club Entertains
Veterans of World War Tonight
To Re-establish Society.

Previous to the war, little society
had been organized among the younger
men of Italian ancestry living on the
west side, but when the war came along
over one hundred Of the 1874 members
left Kenosha to serve the colors of the
nation. While the hundred have been
gone, the thirty odd remaining members
have kept the society alive and main
tanned the charter OF the club.
The first postwar meeting of the
club was held on October 18th and an
attendance of 81 members was report
ed. Steps are now being taken to gath
er material relative to the number of
men who were wounded, gassed, Grip
pied or lost their lives in their coun-
try's service and tonight plans have
been laid to fate all of the returned
members at banquet and re-establish
the society on a working basis.
The men who saw actual service at
the front are to have an opportunity to
tell the other boys Of their experiences
while over there.
The club is taking this method of
showing their respect and esteem for
the boys who were not afraid to take
chance in the cause of democracy and
who offered up their lives that autocra-
cy might be crushed.

ENLIST TAGGERs TODAY.
Red Gross Workers Seek Kenosha
Young Ladies to Act on Thurs
day In Tag-Day Festivities.

Kenosha young women were given
another opportunity to volunteer today
to help see the war through. The call
came from the headquarters Of the Ke-
nosha County Red Cross and was made
to Kenosha women to help in making
Thursday a success as Red Cross tag
day. This will be the closing feature
of the Third Annual Red Cross Roll
Call which has been Staged in Keno
sha during the past week and the COM
mittee is hoping that it will be success
full enough to help bring Kenosha some
place near its quota in the nation wide
drive. The campaign was scheduled
to close on Armistice Day but the time
has been extended two days in order
to include tag day in the total result
of the campaign. The committee was
free to confess this morning that I'M
less thousands of Kenoshans answered
the call in these last few days, this city
would have failed ito see the war
through in this last drive.

pie Playing It Proves Most Inter
esting to Kenosha Theatregoers.
Take good looking woman, add a
number Of wonderful gowns and give
her the knowledge Of how to wear them,
to this add three excellent actors and a
comedy filed with spice and laughs,
mix the whole under soft lights in q
wonderful setting Of perfumed cushions
and flowers and you have the recipe for
the "Sleeping Partners which de-
lighted large crowd at the Rhode
Opera House on Monday evening. Ed
ma Goodrich, which Kenosha had known
only on the screen in the past, stepped
out Of the curtain and in real life play
ed the part of the beautiful woman and
her support was so adequate that every
Interpretation of the comedy was de-
light to the audience.
Sleeping Partners is one of those
different comedies and because it is
different and lot different from the
most plays seen in Kenosha and in this
country there may be some difference
of opinion as to just how good it was.
1t is one of those delightful French
cOmedies-not bit risque-but the
other kind of French comedy, charming
ly original, filed with bright lines and
unusual situations. The story may be
little suggestive but the suggestion
only serves to keep up the interest. Miss
Goodrich, as legitimate actress is en-
tirely as charming as she is OH the
screen and she carried comedy and semi
serious parts in manner to win APP
plause. Her support by Herman Grips,
M. Tello Webb and Charles Peyton, the
only other members of the cast was so
adequate that it showed conclusiyely
that cast Of four people can give a
mighty pleasant evenings entertain
ment.

ARMISTICE DAY
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE

Armistce Dayi when

But here is the slave of a wiling eruteA
So made by the shrapnel's devilish whin,
And ribbons and trinkets don y much
To a torn limb from limb
Armistice Dayl and peace proclaimed,
But how is it peace to the halt and msimedS
Armistce Day when the curtain dropped
On the tragic field and the strife stopped
But there fields hills skies
For him the MONDAY lends light,
For the demon of gas ate out his eyes
And his day is endless night.
Armistice Day, with the behndi
But is it ended for made bindf
Armistce Dayl and the joyNbslls ring
And the children of earth leap up and sngl
one, who is here, yet away,
And maggot is at his Restored brain.
He whimpers and whines at his painful play,
And he gggles at and pain.
Armistice Day, and the world is glad
But how is it happy for made madf
Armistice Day and the wild world cheers,
And laughs and forgets It's foolish fears.
But the wooden n hordes
And stretch white IN endless prayer,
For they who have paid for the broken swords
Hold eternal armstce there.

orchestra who furnished the music for
the dance and who won the praise of
all the dancers for their renditions.
From the first dance which started at
nine o'clock until the last one which
was staged after Armistice Day had
been fttingly ushered in, the dancers

the venture was largely due to the
efficient management of the affair by
the committee under the Craftsmanship
