NAMES MISS HAHN
PROBATION OFFICER
Judge TulIy Announces
Her Appointment After
Election By Welfare
Committee.
HAS STARTED WORK TODAY
New Probation officer HAS Had Wide
Experience in Welfare Work in Keno
sha City and County and Has Been
Active In Many Movements.

Miss Laura e. Hahn, well known So
cial worker Of Kenosha was elected as
probation officer for Kenosha county
at meeting Of the Welfare Commit
tee of the Chamber Of Commerce held
at the Elks Club on Tuesday evening
Under the law the appointment of the
Probation officer is placed in the hands
of the Municipal Judge, but Judge
Tul1y waived his power of appointment
and announced his willingness to name
the person selected by the Public We'll
fare committee Of the civic organiza-
ton. The members Of the committee
present at the meeting included Father
r. j. Conway, j.. M. Theirs, the Rev.
G. Il. Mccoy, Frank Hartman, Jacob
Saftig, L. j. Hammond and M. s.
Moss
All Of the member Of the committee
were present at the conference and
after the various questionnaires return
ed by the various applicants had been
examined it was decided to elect pro-
baton officer by ballot. Miss Hahn
received the majority of the ballots
Of the members of the committee and
Judge Tully promptly accepted the de-
cision and announced the appointment.
Later in the evening he notified Miss
Hahn of her Appointment and asked her
to begin the duties of her Office at
once. She will start work today at a
salary of $1,000 year and the remand
err of the $4,000 appropriation provided
by the County Board for the support
Of the Office will be used for expenses
in connection with the work.
The appointment of Miss Hahn is
one that will meet universal approval
i'm Kenosha. Miss Hahn has been a
resident of Kenosha for the past twelve
years and in that time much of her
time has been given over to welfare
work.
She was for a time connected with
the work of the public schools as a
teacher of regular classes but she felt
keenly the call to service for the young
girls of the city and she was one of
the organizers Of the Kenosha Girls
Club. She was very active for num-
Der of years in the work Of the con-
tinuation and evening schools and dur
ing the war she was one of the lead
ers in the work Of the Red Cross in
Kenosha county.
She has had much special training
along lines of particular value for her
work as probation officer and she
has supplemented this training with
an experience of unusual value.
Her work in Kenosha county will
cover wide field. She will have
charge of all probationary cases-both
boys and girls--and it is expected that
he work will do much to keep the
child offenders out of the court and
bring about their reformation without
their names appearing on court dock
cts or police blotters.

AS on Monday evening Mr.. Shaffer
was especially masterful in his de-
lneation of humorous types and chara-
cters. Explaining that the art Of
mimicry, acquired in childhood, had
merely been developed in later life to
the point where it had become a Joy
for him to present the "folks'' he met
from day to day on his "little jour
neys' along both the highways and by
ways of life.
Especially worthy of mention from
the Tuesday evening program was an
ultra artistic reading Of a war-classic
entitled "The Deserter''.
Mr.. Shaffer IS success in Kenosha de-
luged him with requests for return
engagements. Accordingly he will
come back to the First Baptist Church
on next Wednesday evening as under
his former contract, a silver offering
to be divided equally between himself
and his promoters.
