To the Voters of KenOsha County:

10 the VOCerS OF hen0Sha county:
1t is fair and right that you know
ns much as possible about the men for
whom you vote and especially their
qualifications for office.
Attorney Arthur B. Ames, candidate
for the Office of Municipal Judge, was
born on farm near TT. Collins, Colo
RADIO. His parents and grandparents
were natives of New York State
When he was about FIVE years of age
his father, with his family, moved to
Iowa and engaged in the mercantile
business at Storm Lake. 1t was here
that Attorney Ames received his edu-
cation in the public schools, and later
graduated from the Storm Lake Nor
NAL and Business College.
At the age of 81 Mr.. Ames began
his business career in Kenosha as the
proprietor of retail clothing store
together with two partners, l. C. An
gier and John f. Pershing, father of
the now famous General Pershing.
After few years, Mr.. Ames bought
out both of his partners and continued
successful business on Main street
for more than twenty years.
The subject of law early engaged his
attention, and, after completing a
three years course of study, success
fully passed the Wisconsin state bar
examination in 1906, and was admit
ted to practice. For more than fifteen
years the study Of law has been vital
part of his life. In the fall of 1919
opportunity presenting itself, he en-
tered the law school of the University
of Wisconsin for year of special
work in his chosen profession. Upon
returning to Kenosha, he opened law
office in the Dale Block on Market
Square.
Mr.. Ames has evidenced his faith in
Kenosha by making all Of his invest
ments therein and has paid very sub
stantisl taxes every year of his resi-
dence here. AS to his uprightness and
business integrity, you are referred to
any of the Kenosha banks and to any
OF the hundreds of residents of Keno
sha city and county with whom he has
had business relations.

Plans for Model Building.

"The sketches presented by the two
architects provide for a model build
ing" continued Chairman Murdoch,
with room to house some fifty students
and house them in comfortable and
modern manner. The estimate of the
cost of the building is $4,000 but the
members of the committee are very
much in doubt as to whether or not
it can be built for this sum. We be-
lieve that the cost completed and
equipped will be close to $4,000 but
we believe that it would prove good
investment for the two counties"
Under this estimate Of cost, the new
building with proper equipment would
demand an appropriation from the Ke-
nosha county board in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. The matter is to
come up for action at the meeting of
the board to be held February 18th.
