He had been discharged from the ser

Revelry Relieves Poverty
Proceeds from the Elks Charity Ball,
Totaling six Hundred Dollars, Will
be Used in Philanthropy.

Back of the glare and glitter of the
social classic held at the Elks home on
Wednesday night was sacred mission
the relief of suffering in Kenosha.
1t was fulfilled, too. Today the com
mittee ON the affair, naking it's fnan-
cial report on the function, revealed the
fact that six hundred dollars 5000
had been deposited to the credit of the
Elks Charity Fund as the result of the
revelry of the Charity Ball.
The money will be disbursed as emery
eneies arise and will be used in its en-
tirety for contributions to worthy poor
The committee which handled the

man; Peter Fisher, Jr., music; Robert

WELCOME PEACE
Pvt. 'Chet' Balm Has Inter-
esting Experience in
France When Peace
Comes.
He SEES VARIED SERVICE
After Serving on Three Fronts He Is
Sent Back Into France and Expects
to Return Home soon-Describes
Hun Air Raids.

One Kenosha soldier declares that
it was worth the trip overseas and
three months service on the front
lines to see the happiness which re-
turned to French villages when the
peace message was flashed from one
end of the country to the other. 1t is
Private "Chet" j. Balm, who in re-
cent letter to his father, ]. P. Balm,
427 Rowland Avenue, told how French
villages changed over night when the
great news reached them.
Private Balm had been serving at the
front and but a few days before the
armistice was signed had been started
back for a rest trip. Through the vii
lagos where before the American sol
diers had found strange stiffness and
seriousness, they were now greeted with
flags and demonstrations. HThe people
all seem to be so happy now that it
lis all over" writes Pvt. Balm, "and
you can't blame them after you see
what they have endured
The Kenosha soldier has been in the
service a year and during that time has
seen service on three fronts. First he
was sent to the Toul Sector where he
stayed until the middle of August. He
was then sent to St. Mihiel where he
took part in the fighting which has
made the name famous. Only a few

Hospital-was transferred to the Ar
gonne Forest and arrived just in time
to see service iii the famous fight of
that sector.
In telling of his night in the Ar
gonne, he writes that "there never
was a night when Jerry did not send
over a dozen or more shells'' to hit
the former German barracks which
were then occupied by the Americans.
" LUCKILY" he adds, "they never hit
the mark, but it 5 all luck for if a
she'll comes over with your number on
lit, It's for you-at least that s the way
we have begun to think" Pvt. Balm
also told how for weeks his company
was subjected to nightly air raids but
that fortunately they had suffered few
casualties.
The letter holds out the hope that
Kenosha soldiers now in France may
be home very soon. The soldier says
that already many units have been tax
en- from the American environments and
that before spring it is believed that
many Of them will be back in Kenosha
none the worse for their experience in
serving the flag.

Double Time--- March. /!
Red Cross Volunteers are Urged to
Multiply Their Work by Two in
Last Days of Campaign.

Every garment your workers can
complete and ship during the month of
January will be doubly appreciated.
If possible multiply your quota by
two.
This is the order coming from Red
Cross Headquarters today. In combat
ant branches of the service it would
read more simply "Double time -
march! 1t would be obeyed in just
that cadence, too, with "click, snap,
and precision"
1t is hoped that the civilian work
ers will become for the time being re-
gular soldiers and respond with mill
tary zip and zest.
The appeal is made because refugee
garments are SO badly needed in France
and Belgium. The winter there is more
severe than January in Wisconsin and
the prosperity of peace has not as yet
been thoroughly established.
So - sewing officials at the Red
Cross rooms are making this last APP
peal to up-to-t he-minute-u -the-end

"The Ghostof the Violin"
Weird Musical Device Suggesting q
Virtuoso Attracts Many Patrons
to the Buffalo.

The Buffalo Candy Kitchen has be-
come haunted palace. In and out
among the tables, among the leaves of
palms or, maybe, stowaway on the
battleships above the doors, turks 'fthe
ghost of the violin.''
The apparition came with the in
stallation of the Violano Virtuoso, an
uncanny thing of music, glass and lights
in the back Of the candy store.
The violin is there; the bow is
there; but the ghostly fingers that
play it are nowhere, somewhere, or
everywhere
The strange music-box was complete
ly established at the Buffalo on Friday
of last week when wires connecting it
with boxes at very table made pos
sible its operation from any part of the
many -mirrored room.
The test of the magic music came on
when all afternoon the ghostly
virtposo played "sniles, /" "Babes in

Gobs Are Dinner Guests
Jewish Welfare Board Gives a Charm
ing Dinner Party for Sailors
Visiting in Kenosha.

The sailors from Great Lakes were
treated in grand style this weekend,
thanks to the hospitality of the Jewish
Welfare Board who served delicious
supper to 155 men at the Army and
Navy Club, on Sunday evening.
The invitation came as surprise to
the Sammies because heretofore no.
body had offered that kind of hospital
ity to them at the Army and Navy
Club.
The affair was most successful and
the boys thoroughly appreciated what
the Jewish Welfare Board did for
them. After supper the boys enjoyed
the large club room until it was time
to go to the w. G. s. S. dance as Gros-
venor Hall and the roller skating party
at the Armory.
1t is hoped that other organizations in
the city will follow the example of the
Jewish Welfare Board and give sub
stantial evidence of the interest they
have in our young men who have been
serving these many months and are now
waiting impatiently for their dis
charges.
The boys are coming to Kenosh by
the hundreds and since they have little
money to spend on commercia recrea-
tion they are eager for home hospital
ity and whatever Kenosha can offer in
the way of fun.
The young ladies are doing their bit
by attending the War Camp Commun-
ity Service parties and making it
pleasant for the sailors and no doubt
other organization will help the boys
through this period of rehabilitation.
