TIGHT CREDIT

There u.s. at the present time, condition Of
tight credit 1t is due to various causes, but
among the most important factors are the ac-
tion of the Federal Reserve Board in increas-
ing the rediscount rate to member banks on
money loaned on securities held by the banks to
6 per cent and in insisting that practically all
such loans be made only on government securi-
ties.
IF banks pay per cent for their money it is
inevitable that they will charge higher rates to
borrowers. IF they can secure money from the
federal reserve banks only on government Sc
curities, it is inevitable that they will reduce
their lending to their customers. If the gov
ernment spends nine billion dollars year when
1T is only taking in six billions it is certain that
there must be more and more of these govern
rnent securities sold
Thus credit to business is reduced as credit
to the government increase.
Senator Robert Il. Owen, author Of the feder-
al reserve law, has, in recent speeches, express
ed severe criticism Of the policy Of the Federal
Reserve Board in increasing its interest rate to
banks to per cent. Senator Owen, both as
the author of the federal reserve law and as
close student of economic problems for many
years, ranks as one of the nations great fnan-
ciers.
He declared recently, in a speech in Memphis,
Tenn, that the interest rate to banks should
be 8 per cent, instead Of g.; that the high rate
charged to banks will mean still higher rates
charged to business men, thus putting Amer
ica's merchants and manufacturers under a
serious handicap; that the excuse that the fed
eral reserve rate was raised to per cent in
order to stop speculation will not hold up, be-
cause the board has the power to refuse to
make loans for speculative purposes, regardless
of the interest rates,
Ovens criticisms are worthy of serious con-
sideration
There has been far too much speculation, but
legitimate business should not be made to
suffer in order to suppress it, if another means
exists.

THE FOOLISH PEASANT

Once upon a time there was peasant who
said it was too cold to go out into the woods to
chop logs for the fire. So he conceived the idea
Of chopping up the furniture for that purpose.
In short time he had disposed thus Of the
chairs and tables-and then, being cold once
more, he took out the window frames and burn
ed them; and after the window frames, the
doors.
These being burned he was colder than ever,
Of course. Thereupon he started to tear down
the house and burn it piece by piece until, at
the end, he had neither house nor heat.
The folly Of this peasant Is not unlike that of
the person who, for frivolus reason, sells his
Liberty bonds which, by painstaking thrift and
sacrifice, he acquired during the war to be his
protection for the rainy day.
He is disposing of a shetering roof and
knocking out the door that might serve later to
help keep out the wolf
A Liberty bond is capital. No prudent man
or firm ever dissipates capital, for it is the
foundation on which business is based. "A firm
that begins dipping into capital for running ex-
penses is ready for bankruptcy and ruin.
Don't spend your Liberty bonds To do SO
is like burning down the house to keep warm.

AN UNSUNG PIONEER

The first moving picture actor was horse
and it took it's own picture. A man named Muy-
bridge was the director and a San Francisco
race track was the studio
Muybridge did not know he was making his
tory and laying the foundation for the fame
and fortune of actors yet unborn. For the year
Of the making of the first movie was 1878-16
years before Mary Pickford was given to an
admiring world
This forgotten pioneer-meaning of course,
Muybridge, not Mary-fgured out that if every
motion Of running horse could be photo
graphed and the various photographs after
wards rapidly revolved, the illusion of motion
thus would be created to intrigue the eye Of
the beholder.
So he set up "a cameras in a row along the
race track and to the shutter of each camera
he attached long thread which he stretched
across the track.
The horse was galloped before the cameras,
breaking the threads as he ran. AS each thread
broke, the shutter to which it was attached
snapped open. exposing the plate. Thus the

THE SECRET is OUT

Haven't you often wondered why it is that
the college type" young man wears clothing
of the hue and cut which has come to be as
the football team the remittance from home
and the degree? Sure you have. And never
learned the answer. Here it is:
"Our type Of college man, who has knack
Of wearing his hat and clothes in an entirely
original manner" remarks Vanity Fair, rs
justified by the decorative effect he attains. =
You who have found fault with the college
type for garbing himself as he does, cease your
knocking. He is justified by the decorative
effect he attains And it certainly is the acme
Of decorative effect. Ask father the day after
the college type is trying to achieve-decora-
tive efect-the attainment is all that could be
hoped Tor. Too much, probably, viewed through
fathers eyes, but still, it shows what man can
do if ne has a knack Of wearing hat and clothes
in manner different from all other humans.
WHEN SCHOOLS OUT
All indications, pointing to the near future,
strongly hint of much liveler and happier
times in the great American homes wherein
little children reside
The answer is vacation time
For 10! these many days mother has been
rustling and hustling about in the early morn
ing, getting sonny or daughter off to school
And all through the morning and the afternoon
there has been lack Of youthful cheerfulness.
Now there will be the merry laugh and the
smiling face Of four little kiddies" to keep the
cheerful spirit uppermost round the household
The real love that goes out to the little ones,
and the pleasure in having them around, is
stronger than the bit Of bother they bring
through littering up the house and constantly
shouting, "Can I have piece Of bread and
.jelly?'
Somehow the world has just got to envy the
mother and dad who have tiny tots and feel
sort Of sorry for folk who keep only a pet
poodle.

ton blames the socalled Society Bug for the

State Board to
Hear Complaint
Mystery Surrounds Visit Of the State
Real Estate Board to Kenosha
Next Week.

A considerable mystery surrounds
the announcement that the Wisconsin
State Real Estate Board in charge Of
the licensing of real estate dealers and
the hearing of complaints for the re-
vocation of licenses, will come to Ke-
nosha on next Tuesday to sit in judg-
ment on some local real estate dealer
against whom a complaint has been
filed. Clerk of the Circuit Court De-
Diemar has been notified of the meet
ing, but the notification does not name
the dealer against whom the compliant
has been filed. If local real estate
dealers know anything about the case
they were decidedly reticent today and
none Of them offered any statement.
It is possible that at tn same time
the board will examine several Ke-
noshans who have applied for state
licenses.

that the matter was settled and they
declared that they now expected the
federal officials to take action to clean
up the "cheaters'. 1t is expected that
actions will be taken by the federal

HI-FLYERS GET
DRUNK AT ZION
Etherealists Imbibe Freely
and Raise Rumpus -
Better, Bumpus.
LAST OF THE LIQUOR
(By Special Correspondent


Thousand were drunk at Zion City
last night! They reeled, moaned,
howled, then fell over dead drunk.
They all got drunk on Milwaukee beer,
captured from auto trucks passing
through Zion. Fifty-six thousand bot
ties of Miller's beer, with kick like
q Missouri mule, were poured out at
Zion yesterday. Far into the night,
the beer was being poured into a
trough and down a manhole into a
sewer from whence it flowed on in a
turbulent stream into the lake. The
DRINKS did not get the beer from the
bottles, neither did they get it from
the trough. They sucked it in from
the sewer, and drank and drank until
they staggered and reeled with the load.
Mosquitoes Got Pifflicated.
These drunken creatures were not
human beings, of course, they were
jast ordinary mosquitoes. They drank
in the beer like ca1ncls and then be-
came so pugnacicus that they bit per-
sons standing around with gre IL fury.
They raised Jumps as big as five cent
pieces and tbs llon s.itg correspondent
had 10 beat a hasty retreat, otherwise
ne would no. have been recognizable
by nis relatives and friends.
Getting down to brass taeks, there
were thousands Of mosquitoes so filled
with the beer that was being poured
out in Zion that they were full of
alcoholic poison and their sting was
extremely painful, and raised large
Jumps on the face and neck in a few
seconds. The mosquitoes were evident
" intoxicated for they came out of
the manhole of the sewer in thousands
and made straight for the persons
standing near. Children and grown
ups were bitten furiously. In fact, the
bites got so numerous and so painful
that many were obliged to beat q
hasty retreat and then go home and
battle their face in some poison
antidote.
No Mercy for the Thirsty.
Patrolman Isaac Fairy was on the
job keeping thirsty ones back from the
beer trough. One lad rushed the drink
line and the officer grabbed him and
held his head in the trough. Like the
tabled horse, the cop took him to the
trough but could not make him drink.
A grown-up then dared the officer to
try him at the trough. The policeman
took him up and held his head over
the flowing beer. The young man was
awful dry but very bashful and he re-
Trained from quenching his thirst. A
resident Of Elizabeth street, Zion City,
|paraded the sidewalk near by for over
an hour. His thirst was almost unen-
durable and for a time the officers
thought he might rush the place.
The whole Of the 1000 gallons of
beer was spilled before midnight.
Eight boys, at pay Of fifty cents an
hour, kept the beer running continu-
ously and they spilled the $4,000 bot
ties twenty-four hours ahead Of the
time expected by city officials.
Zion City is now rid of all the cap
tured beer. The people are right glad
to see the last of it. This makes a
total Of 10000 bottles Of booze
that Zion City has consigned to Lake
Michigan.

OPEN CLINIC
NEXT WEEK
General Clinic for Free
Treatment to Be in Or
der in Few Days.
DENTISTS LEAD WAY


Plans have been definitely made for
the opening and operation of a general
clinic for the treatment Of people Of
Kenosha. The clinic is to be opened
the first Of next week and as rapidly as
possible departments for dental treat
rnent, medical treatment, minor surg
cry and treatment Of the diseases Of
children will be provided. The service
of the clinic will be free to the people
of Kenosha and it is expected that it
will be notable aid to the health de-
partment in battling disease in Keno
sha. The work of the experts in the
various departments will be contrib
uted as a part Of the contribution Of
these men toward advancing the gen.
eral health of the city.
Dentists Take Lead.
Members Of the Kenosha County
Dental Society who initiated the gem
eral idea Of the free clinic in Kenosha
two years ago but who we're forced to
give up the work when the park board
closed up the clinic over on the island
have led in volunteering services for
work at the clinic. At meeting Of
the dentists held on Monday evening
it was voted to offer the health board
and the Service league the services of
the dentists Of the city in order to
make the clinic possible. Some aid
may be secured later from the city and
the state, but it is considerable of a
problem to get state aid for the public
general clinic and it must be support
ed largely by local aid brought through
the Service league Following the lead
of the dentists of the city, the physi-
clans and surgeons have volunteered
their aid to the clinic.
Hope for Great Results.
1--WE hope for great results from this
general clinic" declared DR.. G. Winde-
sheim this morning. "The splendid
spirit shown by the dentists in offer
ing their service and the equally
splendid spirit shown by the members
of the medical profession have given
the assurance that we can build up a
real institution in Kenosha. There is
a great demand for it. Miss Nohl, who
has been here working under the di-
rection of the Wisconsin Anti-Tuber-
culosis society and the Kenosha Serv-
ice League is doing wonderful work
in pioneering the work of the clinic
and she has opened the way for real
work to be done in real manner. The
dental clinic will be ready the first
part Of next week and the other de-
partments for medical and surgical
treatment Of diseases Of children will
open later in the week or the follow
ing week. We want it understood that
this is the gift Of these professional
men to the city of Kenosha with the
idea Of advancing the general health Of
the city. They have no personal in
terest in the clinic and their sacrifice
to take care Of it is a considerable one.
What we want is that it be made an
institution of real service for the peo-
pie"
It is expected that the clinic will be
a great aid in working among the chill
dren of the city schools. The board of
education had decided to try out the
plan of employing a school dentist and
it is expected that the schools will Coz
operate fully with the new clinic.
