ago when Mrs. Hannah E. Patchin of
Weyauwega offered various prizes

circles in the subject of suffrage

Society and Club Life
Made In Kenosha'
Kenosha Riddles Made Toys That
Leave the Made in Germany
Trademark in the Lurch.

Made in Germany" as q trade
mark for toys has taken the count in
Kenosha. The Kenosha "kiddies y
have done the Germans one better
and henceforth in this city the tots
will look for the trademark Made
in Kenosha' as the mark of the toy
deluxe.
The proof Of this is being made mani
fest this week by a display of toys
made by Kenosha children in the 4th,
5th and 9th grades of the public
schools. They are on display in the
show window Of the English Hard
ware Store on Main street, where they
attract the attention and wonder of all
those who remember the good old kid
days.
Anyone who remembers the first day
he tried to manipulate a scroll saw
will praise the skill with which one Of
the little "shavers" has cut out a
horse, eyes, ears "and everything
with all the skill Of real artist and
real workman.
And that's not ALL There are wheel
barrows the red kind that remind
you Of Santa Claus and Christmas
morning and automobiles, and wood
en- dogs and cats yes a whole mena-
gerie of them-al painted up in their
Sunday clothes.
The kiddies'' did not forget that
this is the year Of the war either for
the most wondered att toy in the
display is a real wooden boat with
masts and spars and wooden guns all
ready to sail. 1t is the homework of
Richard Frost and shows clearly how
the manual training work has been
correlated with the other studies of
thu school
The toys have been made under the
direction of Miss Hood as supervisor
and Miss Edna Eichelman as teacher.
For several years the children have
made toys to send to poorer children
here or to war orphans across the seas
and the display this year is especially
worthy Of recognition.

Private William Walden
Brings Back Word of A
Splendid Christmas at
Saumur in France.
BOYS ENJOYED The HOLIDAY
Captain Coney and his ssColts' had
Big Time Dinner Home BY
March zenas Pitcher Wins
Advancement.

Private William Walden of Park
Court, lately of the American Expedi-
tionary Forces in France, has come
back to Kenosha with a discharge in
his pocket or his suitcase-they carry
them both places and bit of a
story about Battery E in his repertoire
of army "reminiscences.
Christmas Day, 1918, found Private
Walden in Saumur, France. There
Weren It Christmas trees, holly, and
things like that within radius Of sew
eral thousand kilometers but there
were friends in the ofing and made it
kinda Christmasy' after all.
The friends were his 1'buddies =
who left Kenosha with Captain Coney
in the summer of II. Now Battery
instead Of Troop E, they were winter
ing at Saumur and planning to have
an Arabian or was it a Kenoshan
night in celebration Of the great
December holiday. Private Walden ar
rived just in time to cut off a large
slice of the gaiety 50 prevalent at the
wartime, yule-time, banquet.
1T was wonderful dinner, he
remarked this morning. "I sat right
next to Dave Gottlieb and hope to
tell you we both enjoyed it."
Private Walden reports that the boys
of Battery E. are in the very pink of
physical fitness. They were all ready
for the big front when the srmistice
was signed and were not a little but
great deal "peeved' when cessa-
tion Of hostilities deprived them of
their ''big chancen to put Kenosha on
the firing line.
AS for morale Private Walden
admitted grudgingly that it was blue
instead of pink. Now that things are
over the boys want to come home
right away or sooner if possible. They
confidently expect to be back in Ke-
nosha by early March at the latest.
In the way of personal mention,
the discharged Sammy reported that
Zenas Pitcher had been advanced to
the rank Of sergeant-major with the Elk
peditionary Forces in France. His
work in the Training School at saumur,
while not extensive enough to secure
him commission, was nevertheless so
thorough and promising as to win him
the next best bet, a sergeant-majority.
Private Walden is completely dis
charged from the service and expects
to continue his work and residence in
Kenosha.

Cosmopolitan Population Of
the City is Shown by the
Men and Women Seeking
Citizenship Now.
ALLEGIANCE IS A PUZZLE
Many Seeking Citizenship Can't Tell
Who is Ruling Nation From Which
They Came But They Will Renounce
Allegiance to AL Factions.

People who renowned their allegi-
ance to more than thirty different ma
tions have applied for first papers in
the office of the clerk of the Circuit
Court for Kenosha county since the
first day of January. In the big drive
in which more than two thousand men
and women have sought to get under
the flag, the most cosmopolitan company
Of people possible has been shown to be
living in Kenosha. In fact, there has
been applications from every European
country with the exception of Spain.
Somehow or other, there has not been
a single Spaniard who wants to hold
his Job in Kenosha Hundreds of the
people who have applied for first papers
have bee in doubt as to just who they
should name in renouncing their ale
glance and in some cases they have re-
nounced allegiance to rival governments
now contending for the governing pow
er in many Of the countries in Europe.
Some have been offered to renounce
their allegiance to Lenine and Trotsky
in Russia, while Germans who have
been coming into the office looking for
first papers have declared their will
ingness to renounce their allegiance to
whatever may be the governing power
in Germany, In an addition to the
rush Of men from European countries
to seek citizenship there has also been
q demand for citizenship from men and
women who formerly resided in Chile,
Argentine, Canada and Australia and
number of Mexicans have applied
for the chance to become full citizens
of tho United States
NO man from Portugal has applied
for first papers, but in one Of the petit
tions it is shown that the wife OF the
petitioner was native of Portugal.
Ben who came from Germany, Nor
way, Sweden, Ireland, Wales, Scotland,
England, Belgium, France, Holland,
Denmark, Italy, (Sicily, Rome and

land, Lithuania, and Siberia), Austria
IIungaria, including Croatia, Jugo and

Many of these people had come to
this country before the war in Europe
called them into military service. A
eew of them were refugees who left
hese coun les after war was declared
and made their way by circuitous
routes to the United States.
Practically all of the applicants for
6rst papers have declared that it is
their intention to seek full citizenship
just as soon as they are permitted to
make the application under the Bureau
of Naturalization Regulations,
Examiners Of the bureau have repeat
cdly declared that Kenosha has the most
cosmopolitan population Of any city in

Cupid Hits Snag
Theodore Arzarkewicz Almost Gets
Married Today After Romance of
Three Years Duration

That old saying about the course
of true love'' had some additional
proof in Kenosha this morning.
1t happened over in the Office of
County Clerk and centered around one
Theodore Arzarkewicz who has found
marriage about the most elusive thing
in this world. Several years ago Cupid
started things when this Kenoshan be-
came infatuated with Celestial Plevato,
then a resident of Kenosha. He was
heart broken a few months later when
his heart s desire married some one else
and moved to the northern part Of the
state in 1911. In 1917 divorce was
granted in this case and Theodore re-
sumed his attentions.
Eyes, she would marry him, if he
would become an American citizen, =
was her statement in December and
Theodore wasted no time in get
ting his first papers, which he proudly
displayed this morning
As a result application for license was
duly made on the goth of December.
Then trouble began again. Arzarke-
Wicz was arrested and was unable to
apply in person for the license and to-
day when he turned up, the clerk told
him it might be too late.
To add to his discontinue lawyer
appeared and said that Arzarkewicz
had represented himself to have wife
and two ohildrau ond q torron+ of
broken English was started to explain
the mistake. The affair is being
Strengthened out this afternoon and it
seems that Cupid will be able to win
out in the long run and the marriage
will occur in the near future.
