announcement that it had been sold to
a foreign syndicate which was to re-
model it and reopen it as first class

spent on the place

Detroit.-The executive committee

to complete plans for the party's ma
tiona1 convention which opens Satur-

expected. Otto Branstetter, national
secretary; Morris Hillquit of New
York; James O'Neal and other leaders
of the conservative faction predict they
will outnumber the communist left
wing by at least 5 to l on the conven-
ton floor. The principal fight is brew
ing over the question of international
relations with at least five widely di-
vergent resolutions listed in the con
vention addenda. The left wing radicals
will make their fight on afiliation with
the Third Internationale of Moscow
without reservations on the terms laid
down by the Russian soviets. The ex-
IRENE right is opposed to any interna-
tional affiliations. and in-between are
groups supporting modified union with
the bolsheviki or negotiations with the
Vienna congress Of Socialist parties.

Rural Schools Take
Revolutionary Step
tBy Associated Press)

Garden City, Kan.-What is describ-
ed as one of the most elaborate and
complete consolidated school plants in
America has just been dedicated at

The plant cost $225,O00.
Seven school districts joined to con

ers who receive $40 month for this
extra work. The buses have a capa-
city of thirty to forty pupils each.
The Holcomb consolidated school
district has an area of 12412 square
miles. The school population at
present is 1875. The new plant has a
captcity of $50 grade and high school

OFFER CHANCE
TO KENOSHANS
Kenosha Young Men Are
Invited to Attend Civilian
Training Camp.
is A FINE VACATION

Kenosha young men were invited
again today to become members of the
Citizens Military Training Camp to be
opened at Camp Grant for the states
of Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin in
the sixth army corps area on July 21st
to continue through four weeks. Let
ters from Major A. R. Edwards, adju-
tant of the camp, to Postmaster Cor
man, the Knights of Columbus, Rev j..
J. Conway and other Kenoshans, who
are aiding in recruiting" for the camp
in Kenosha, explained that this city
was tagging far behind and that GER
tainly Kenosha young men did not
realize the value of the unusual offer
for vacation and training made to them
by the government. 1t is known that
several prominent Kenosha eX-service
men have already filed applications for
admission to the camp
Eligibility Requirements.
The camp is open to all men between
the ages of 16 and 35 years, who are
of sound character, intelligence and
physical condition. No special educa-
tional qualifications are prescribed but
each candidate must file a certificate
of good character signed by a school
master, clergyman, priest, rabbi or
other responsible official, together with
medical testimony from a qualified
physician as to hearing, eyesight, heart
action and general physical condition
adequately fitted for the course of
training. The medical examination is
very simple, consisting of but few
questions to be answered by physician.
In this connection it is stated by
several physicians of Kenosha who
served in the World War that no
charges would be made to ex-service
men for their services in connection
with the examinations for this camp.
at is tribute to our comrades-in-arms
to be of service to them in this way"
said local ex-service physician, "and
| am glad to do all l can for the boys"
This is Just one of those uneXplainable
comraderies formed in the service
that go a long ways toward making
the service under the Stars and Stripes
real glory.
Purposes and Obligations.
The aim of this and similar camps IS
to promote good citizenship and an
interest in national defense. The war
department plans to bring together the
young men of all occupations and vo-
cations on a basis of equality under the
most favorable conditions of outdoor
life. Enrolment at this camp implies
no later service obligation, although
it is hoped that men who attend will
be inclined thereafter to enroll with
the National Guard or the Reserve.
Make Application at Once.
Additional information and neces-
sary enrolment blanks may be secured
from Major A. R. Edwards, Asst Adjt.,
Citizens Military Training Camps,
Fort Sheridan, Ill, Kenoshans who are
interested may secure more informa-
ton by applying for circulars and APP
plication blanks to Postmaster German,
at the K of C. headquarters in the
Chamber of Commerce building, or to
the Rev. Father Conway.

Factories Give Vacation
Jobs to Men and WO-
men This Year.
NONE ASK FOR PERMITS
Last Day of School Fails to
Bring Usual Feverish Anx-
iety About County Building.

Today was the last day Of school
with the usual number of passing
cards and the usual number of disap
pointments The annual commence
ment is held this evening and the
students and teachers are going to
call it school year and get away for
the long vacation.
It's going to be more of vacation
for Kenosha students this year than
ever before Usually the last day of
school brings feverish excitement
aong the boys and girls who are look
ing for work during the summer
months, but there was not a sign of
excitement or activity at the permit
bureau over at the administration
building this morning and although it
was the last day of school not one of
the boys or girls came in seeking a
chance to, work during the summer.
mo, we haven't any crowd today
said the young lady in charge of the
bureau. "In fact, we have had only
three or four applications for permits
during the month and we do not expect
many of them. There is no work in
Kenosha for boys and girls now"
Must Have Assurance of a Job.
Before a permit to work is issued
to any of the students they must file
with the permit department a letter
I from the proposed employer. "Out in
the factories" continued the state
ent, "the positions which are open
are being given to men and women
rather than to boys and girls and there
are a lot of men and women in Ke-
nosha who are ready to accept work
which might be done with boys and
girls rather than be idle"
Reports from the industrial centers
in Kenosha indicated that there was
little reason to believe that there would
be many jobs offered for the young
people during the present summer. A
few of the boys are starting out to-
morrow to work on the farms of the
county and it is said that some employ
ment is being offered on the farms but
this is limited to a few farms.
Just Real Vacation Time.
"This year it must be real vacation
for the boys and girls" declared one
of the employing heads of Kenosha fac
tories. ct is the general intention of
the manufacturer to make the work in
Kenosha go. just as far as it will and
to do this we must give the preference
to the older men and women who have
families to support or who aid in the
support of children"
1t is expected that with the scarcity
of work there will be large number
of the students entered for the sum
mer school sessions.
