To Protect Public
from ''Fair Fakirs
State Board of Health Issues Instruc-
tions for Food Booths on the
C0nfetti-Trail.

AS in past years the state is pre-
pairing to enforce sanitation and safe
guard the health of patrons of county
fairs and the state fair during the
season opening the middle of August.
Inspectors of the hotel and restaur-
ant division of the state board of
health will enforce rigidly the rules
governing eating establishments.
Foodstuffs must be protected against
flies and kept under refrigerator con-
ditions until used. The regulations re-
quire that garbage be kept in tight
containers and removed daily; that
floors be kept dry and clean; that can
ned goods opened be removed from
containers; that dishes and utensils
be thoroughly washed after use; that
dishcolths and towels be frequently
changed, and washbowls and clean wa
ter kept for use Of employees. Dir
ty and cracked dishes must not be
used. No person with a communica-
BILE disease is permitted to work in
any food establishment, and all EN-
ployes must wear clean clothing and
keep themselve scrupulously clean,
and shall not use tobacco while on
duty.
Inspectors also will insist on sani-
tary toilet facilities, and that attend
ants be assigned to maintain them
properly.
Fair officials as we'll as conces-
sionaires will be held accountable for
the character of the eating places,
sanitary closets and games and
offered. Inspectors are
commissioned by the secretary of
state to supervise all concessions
and prevent games of chance and
immoral and dangerous amusements.
Failure of concessionaires to com
ply will jeopardize their right to
continue, and fair associations are ex-
pected to enforce these rules upon
penalty of withdrawal of state aid.
Since inspection work at fairs was
begun few years ago, Wisconsin fairs
have undergone notable reform in
the character of attractions and con-
veniences offered, and these high stan
dards are acknowledged by many out
side showmen and officials to be in ad-
vance of other states.

4 KENOSHANS
In AUTO SPILL
All Escape Injury when
Fred Westine's Elgin Six
Goes in Ditch Sunday.
RACER TURNS TURTLE

Four Kenoshans lirted with death
Sunday evening just after eight o'clock
when the car driven and owned by
Fred E. Westine, went over six foot
embankment along the Wilmot road
near the Fred Leonard farm, twelve
miles west of Kenosha. The car, a
Elgin Six touring car, was turned on
it's side but due to the fact that Wes-
tine was driving very slowly, all of the
occupants escaped without a scratch
In the automobile with Westine were
Fred Cummings, Leslie Southwark and
Arthur Smith, all returning from the
Simmons baseball game at GAINESVILLE.
Showed OFF the Road.
Mr.. Westine had just crossed a small
culvert and was driving not faster than
ten miles an hour. A stalled automo-
bile at the side of the road prevented
third car from seeing the Elgin un-
til they were nearly together. Wes-
tine took to the side of the road to
avoid a collision and skidded in the
gravel there for more than five yards
before the car finally toppled over
slowly. The engine continued to run
after the spill and the car appeared to
be only slightly damaged. All of the
occupants climbed out over the top and
with the aid of farmers near the scene
of the accident helped right the car.
Racer Also Turns Turtle.
About seven o'clock Sunday morning
more serious accident happened at
the concrete bridge about one mile
west of SHADES Corners on the Geneva
road when a green racing car, said to
have once been the property of the
famous Ralph DePalma, went off the
edge of the bridge into the ravine
fifteen feet below. The car was driven
by Lewis Daum, Elston and Belmont
avenue, Chicago, who had his right
arm broken and his shoulder dislocated
as a result of the fall. He was hur-
ried to the hospital in Lake Geneva,
where physicians declared that he
would recover. He had another Chi
cago man riding with him but the
latter escaped injury by jumping from
the car just before it took the leap
over the embankment
The racer, high powered Norwalk,
is said to have been spinning along
at a good rate of speed when it hit
the gravel on the approach to the
bridge. 1t skidded and struck the
large wall of concrete-more than
eight feet long and several inches
thick-which had been built there as
protection to motorists. This was
snapped off as the car hurtled into the
ditch but it broke the fall enough to
prevent serious injury. The car turn
ed completely over but landed right
side up. 1t was pulled out of the ravine
Sunday evening and appeared to be
little damaged from the accident.

Escapes after
Perjlous Ride
(By Associated Press

Racine-A go-cart, containing the
two year old child of John Nelson, It'll
Mead street, was hurtled along Sew
enteenth street for distance of three
block, parallel to a rapidly moving in
terurban car here this morning. The
child miraculously escaped injury and
the gocart remained intact despite the
perilous trip. The handle Of the GO
cart became wedged under the, floor Of
one Of the doors of the car when the
car slowed down for corner after the
baby cab had rolled off the sidewalk
almost into the path Of the approach
ing car. The crew was unaware of the
accident until informed by frantic pc
destrians.
