for Fair Sites
Paper Building County Fair Buildings
Provides Popular Pastime at
Court House.

They were building - on paper -
county fair buildings all over the
county at the court house this morn
ing. This was the popular pastime as
friends of various sites told of the
wonderful possibilities which each one
of them had. Supervisor J. J. Bar
rows suggested a site on the Geneva
road, which he declared, was ideally
located for the purpose. Then the
Paddock's Lake site was discussed one
near Salem came in for favorable com
ment and several others were men
toned.
Treasurer Thomas Scott made the
most interesting suggestion of the
conference when he mentioned that
the south part of the Balm farm might
be secured He declared that this
would be near enough to the city for
the cavalry troop to use the quarters
for the horses while the fair was not
in session and that is the way the
proper care could be provided for the
buildings. All of the projects will be
presented to the committee at their
regular meeting.

Finds Favor for Junior Highs.
Mr. Loomis and the other members
of the Kenosha party returned home on
Saturday after attending the inaugur-
alton and the annual convention of
the National Educational association
at Atlantic City.
"What was the sentiment shown at
the national convention in regard to
the Junior High school system ?" Mr.
Loomis was asked.
"The sentiment is that the country
is committed to the junior high schools
as an integral part of the whole sys-
tenn of education" said Mr. Loomis
'The junior high plan was under dis
cussion in many of the meetings held
in connection with the convention and
we sought to get up a debate on the
proposition but there was but one OPP
posing voice in the convention. The
sentiment of the leaders of education
is overwhelmingly in favor of the
junior high school. The proof is the
pudding is in the eating and there is
not place where the junior high
school has been established that it
would even be considered eliminating

ness to Defend Flag.

A flood of immigration has set in
toward Kenosha and it is announced
this morning that in the past sixty
days between seventy-five and hum
dred immigrants have arrived from
North Italy alone and that there is a
decided movement of the people of
Italy to America and that many are
coming to Kenosha. For the most
part the people who have so far ar
rived are people who have relatives
living in Kenosha or Kenosha county
and it is declared that some of these
people had made arrangements to come
to Kenosha before the war stopped i'm
migration in 1914. Many of the peo-
pie coming from Northern Italy are
men who served throughout the war
in the Italian army and not few of
them are men who won the highest
honors of war. Many parties are be-
ing held in Kenosha in honor Of these
men who wear the decorations of hon
or. For the most part these people
are planning to make their home in
Kenosha.
Manly CcSA GibIZSuSnlps
The flood of immigration to Kenosha
is reflected at the Office of the clerk
of the Circuit Court and scores of
these people just arrived from Euro
pean countries are filing demands for
first citizenship papers. Many of the
newcomers have mot as yet found en-
ployment in Kenosha but they are
being taken care of by friends and
relatives and it is declared that a
goodly portion of them are well sup
piled with money and ready to wait
until the returning hustle of industry
offers places for them in the factories
of Kenosha. 1t is declared that other
European countries are planning to
send many people to Kenosha just as
soon as some formal peace resolution
has been passed by Congress paving
the way for these people to secure
passports.
Demands First Papers Now.
The employment Offices of the indus
tries of the city are not refusing to
employ the newcomers but a uniform
demand is being made on all applicants
for work and that is that they be able
to show the intention of becoming
citizens of the United States before
they are considered eligible to en-
ployment care you willing to fight
in the army of the United States and
have you your first papers" is the first
question that is asked of these new
residents when they seek employment
Many of them have been refused EN-
ployment and after they have taken
out their first papers but the industries
of Kenosha are insisting that citizen
ship or at least willingness to as
sumo the duties of citizenship be the
first requisite to participation in the
working life of Kenosha.
