1915 to $5s,5oO,00o in 1912, a loss of
AZ per cent.
At the beginning of the war, Eng.
land arranged protection for all Of the
gold produced by British mines. This
protection is still maintained and the
gold reserves of England are being in
creased by imports from the United
States, and their own heavy produc-
ton of new gold. At the close of 1913,
there was a gold cover of 60 cents for
every Federal Reserve dollar. This had
declined to 5O.3 at the close of 1919
The Federal Reserve Act requires 40c
in actual gold against each dollar in
circulation. At the present rate of
loss in production, excessive gold ex-
ports and heavy consumption in the
arts and trades, the legal amount can
not long be maintained
The United States today owns APP
Iproximately third of the monetary
gold reserve of all nations and is ex-
pected to sustain the credit structure
of the world. The depletion Of he
monetary gold reserve, either by ex-
cessive use of manufacturing or by the
curtailment of production, necessarily
will limit that commercial supremacy
to which the United States is entitled
by virtue of is natural resources, bust
ness sagacity and industrial efficiency.

MOVING DAY BRINGS
SCORE OF TROUBLES
Mrs. Victor Gavrel and Children Have
TO Move from Home But Find
No Pace to Go.


Add to the horrors of moving day
a truck of household goods and no place
to move it. That is the plight of Mrs.
Victor Gavrel, Of Dayton street, Mrs.
Gavrel is suing her husband for divorce

home. Since the separation sis
ter of Mrs. Gavrel left her at in

served notice on Mrs. Gayrel, and
the two women decided to move into
the sister s apartment in the Eek buiIG-
ing: Accordingly the household goods
were loaded onto a truck this afternoon
and brought to the sister s home. Here
it was found that the landlord had
taken out the furniture and rented the
fiat to another family.> The goods could
not be returned to the Gavrel home as
the new occupants had already moved
in and so the situation stood at two
thirty o cock this afternoon when an
appeal was made to the police.

Wisconsin Sugar Co. Sends
Estimated Bonuses of Over
Sixty Thousand Dollars
to Kenosha County
BASED ON SUGAR PRICES
Some Beet Ralsers Do Not Appear to
Be Any Too Wen Satisfied with Set
Elements Made and Acreage for
Crop May Be Reduced

The Wisconsin Beet Sugar company
put something like sixty thousand dol
lars into circulation in Kenosha county
this morning when the checks for the
bonus on last year s beets were sent
to the hundreds of farmers in the
county. The total of the amount paid
was estimated as somewhere between
Sixty and seventy thousand dollars
representing a payment Of $2.O2 on
each ton of beets sold to the company
in Kenosha county during the year
1919. The farmers have received the
checks with mingled feelings and some
of them are protesting that the amount
Received is not as much as they ex-
pected, while others insist that it is
not enough in keeping with the pres
ent price Of beet sugar.
Fix Bonus by Contract.
Under the contracts made between
the company and the growers in the
state for the year 1919, the company
paid the growers for the beets at rate
Of ten dollars per ton on delivery and
in addition it was agreed that further
compensation should be made in keep
ing with the average price of the sugar
during the year. The company has
sent with each bonus check a statement
shaving the market price of the sugar
for the various months of the year and
this is averaged at little less than
twelve dollars. From this is figured a
bonus which brings the total paid for
the beets in this county during the year
to $12.02 a ton. 1t is estimated that
the bonus is being paid to from three to
four hundred farmers in Kenosha
county and to possibly double that
number in Racine county. The leaders
Of the beet growers estimated that the
beets delivered in Kenosha county dur
ing the season covered by the bonus
was close to total of $4,000 tons.

are much more forceful in your ac-
tions9)
This experiment was tried for many
days until John should shout out louder
and louder, and when, with the shouts,
simple forceful motions were gradually
introduced, John was soon able to take
up the tayonet work with his platoon.
I don't know what John told his
family when he got back from France,
but the captain received letter some
months ago from John s father who
said:
81 don t know how you did it
Captain, but my poor weak boy is back
man, and he has man s record.
"Whatever sorrow the war has
brought others, thank God it wassthe
means of making Of my poor weak son
the fine fellow he is today, and to you
Captain, I will always be grateful for
this fine spirit you put into him."
In answering him, the Captain told
the father this: CT did not put this
fine spirit in your boy, it was there all
the time, but it took ordinary army
training to develop it. =
There are many boys who, like John
need only the scientific development
of their latent strength Of mind.
This can be developed as surely as
can the muscles of the body and it
is too bad that all such boys cannot
have that training which has done SO
much for John.

Serving The Flag,

John was farmer boy who came
to the army cantonment along with a
contingent of the great draft.
In all his life John had never been
farther away from home than the cross
roads village. With rather a simple
mind, practically no education and with
no incentive he had grown to young
manhood rather bent in figure, slow of
mind and retiring in disposition.
John was with his platoon at bayo-
net practice. All of the bayonet work
required quick action and strong mus
cular effort, the men are taught to put
their whole heart into it. To bring out
the last ounce of speed and strength of
thrust which is necessary to the MAX
ing of successful bayonet fighter, the
men were required to shout as they ad
vance and thrust.
John could no more do these things
than he could fly; it simply WASH t in
him.
Noticing this the lieutenant took him
aside and tried to help him, but 1t was
hopeless. Anyone could have killed
poor John with club while his slow
brain muddled and went blank when
a strain was put upon it. So the cap
tain took him all alone down to the riv-
er bank and there had him hello at
some soldiers half-mile away, patient
ly pointing out that John Is weak voice
couldn't possibly reach that far and
had John try and try until he was
really shouting fairly loud. do you
know that if you work up great shout

Kenosha tried the Zone man" cars
once and the trouble with them was
that the one man was usually the only
occupant. of the car. Kenosha people
want to be reasonable and give the
railway company chance to earn divi-
dends for any one, but the people
of the city do not want to sacrifice
safety to dividends for any one. Con-
vince the people that these cars are
safe and they will give them a pref
