Boston.-Trouble brought Marilyn
Miller and Jack Pickford together;
more trouble may keep them apart
and thus prevent new love mending
the hearts two tragedies have broken.
Miss Miller is the star of Flo Zieg-
fields "Sally" Gnd the highest salaried
musical comedy actress in America.
Pickford is the brother of the famous
Mary and has directed and starred in
films. 1t was trouble that brought
about the announcement of the en-
gagement.
Miss Miller had given some auto
graphed photographs to Benjamin Ka-
batznick, Boston art dealer. Kabatz-
nick had these in furnished residence
in Boston, which he was accustomed
to rent to visiting theatrical celebri-
ties.
When sally" came to town, Geneva
Mitchell of the company took the
house, She is the "Pogo Girl" who
recently eloped with millionaire stu
dent at Yale and parted company with
him few days later.
Parties Become Rough.
Kabatznick reserved the right to en-
terrain in the living quarters of the
house. Came a party-or two parties!
But the two parties got mixed up-in
a sort of free-for-all! In Boston they
call it the "pajama party" because
Miss Mitchell appeared in a costume
that looked like that. However, she
says it wasn't pajamas at all, but a
fancy affair that she had worn to a
masquerade or something.
The party came to the attention of
the public officials, through complaints
of some of the girls that they had
been beaten up. Miss Miller's name
got dragged into it, on account of the
autographed photographs. Someone

Business Built
On Confidence

Every reputable business is built
upon confidence. Destroy that conf.
dence, and in nine cases out of ten you
have destroyed the business. The at.
torney-general of the United States
should be very careful that what he
says should not tend to destroy the
confidence of the ultimate consumers
in the retailers of the land, unless he
has the very strongest of evidence fo1
making such statements. And IN his
recent attacks upon the retailers as a
class the Encouragement has had no
such evidence.
As matter of fact, the retailer has
suffered cruelty the last twelve
months. Very few have made no profit
at all; many have suffered severe loss
es. Prices have been cut to rock bot
tom, that is, rock bottom so far as
costs were concerned. Of course there
are some lines in which prices are
still entirely too high, doubtless, but
in such cases the retailer is not at
fault. He has cut his profit to the
bone in order to sell goods The keen
est competition that the world knows
automatically keeps the retailer within
bounds. -ie.Usfl
He needs no warning from the at
torney-general of the United States to
cut his profits. His competitors see
that he does that, or they get the bust
ness away from him. There are bad
retailers and good retailers, of course,
just as there are bad men and good
ones in every other line. But take
them as class, and they stack up with
the best in every community.
As a matter of fact, they are the
strength of the community. They pay
the taxes, they contribute to the phil
anthropies, they employ the help, they
boost-in short, they do the things that
the best people in any community do.
The community welfare is their well
fare, and selfshness alone would keep
them operating on a decent margin of
profit, if they had 10 other motive.
Be fair to the retailer; he wants to
be fair to you; but the point of it is,
whether he wants to or not, he has to
be fair to to you because competition
makes him so. MA.

BONNER Builds
Ideal Plant Here
Blommer Ice Cream Company Has
$4,000 Ice Cream Factory Located
on Erie Street.

Few people in Kenosha realize that
In the last thirty days there has been
opened in Kenosha one of the most
complete ice cream factories in the
state. 1t is the Kenosha plant of the
Blommer Ice Cream company, located
at 650-654 Erie street. The factory
and its equipment represents an outlay
of more than $4,000 and gives the
company an opportunity to serve Ke-
nosha and Racine counties with it's
product.
The building is two-story structure
of concrete and brick. Adjoining
the Office is the freezing room, where
electric driven machines enable the
company to have an output of 1000
gallons of ice cream daily. The re-
frigerator is large one where thou
sands of gallons may be stored and
kept at temperature as low as 40
degrees below zero if necessary. In
the basement is located the freezing
machine of the plant. The plant is
equipped with ample motor facilities
for handling the trade.
The entire plant is clean and airy,
ranked recently by the dairy and food
inspector from Madison as one of the
best in the state in this regard. Will
liam Isermann, as general sales man
ager of the company, is in charge of
the local plant, with Ernest Bauman
as superintendent.

State Schools Feel
Teacher Shortages
fBy Associated Press.)

Menomonie, Wis.-Last year twenty
three out of .twenty-eight county train
ing schools reported that they did not
have enough graduates to supply the
demand for their own counties, accord
ing to officials of the Wisconsin
Teachers association. This June prin-
cipals in 10 out of % county training
schools estimate that they cannot meet
the demand for their graduates in
their own counties, according to figures
collected by c. M. Palmer of the Column
bia county normal school.
The total number of graduates in %
county training schools last June was
666. The number of graduating this
June, it was said, will be $50 and al
though greater than that of last year
will fall short of the demand.
Forty counties of Wisconsin have no
training schools and must get their
new teachers from those that have or
from high school training courses or
normal schools, it was said.

Canadian Ball Fans
Wanted to Hang imp
Fans of the Three Rivers Club in Mon
treaI Threatened to Lynch Jumps
After "Rotten Arbitrating."

Montreal officials Of the Eastern
Canada Baseball League on Friday
notified the management of the Three
Rivers club that it must put the brakes
on umpire batting. They made it plain
that while they did not object to a
little "razzing" now and then, it was
carrying it bit too far when within
a week spectators had threatened to
lynch one umpire and chased another
out of town. While league officials in
Montreal could do nothing to the fren-
zied fans, they meted out prompt pun
ishment to one player involved in the
second upheaval by fning him 5000
and indefinitely suspending him.
An investigation Of the two incidents
made from Montreal has developed that
residents of the French Canadian viii
lage of Three Rivers were taking pro-
fessional baseball very seriously. The
Three Rivers club was only recently
added to the circuit, which embraces
also Montreal, Ottawa and Valleyfeld.
Three Rivers drowsed through the
winter without undue excitement I'M
til it became the headquarters for the
hunt for Canadian witnesses in the
Stillman divorce case. When that ex-
citement subsidized, it looked forward
expectantly to the ball season. From
the first it became evident that Three
Rivers was out to support its home
club to the end. When on June LIST
Umpire Bruneau decided against a
Three Rivers player, dispatches say
that the grandstand was nearly demol-
ished as the rooters searched for am
munition with which to lombard him.
Escorted by the police, the umpire
lodged crowd waiting outside the
gates with a moose, and as soon as he
had fed down, dropped note to Joe
Page, former scout for the Chicago
Nationals and now president of the
Eastern Canada league, begging to be
excused for officiating in Three Rivers
again.

Pineapple Slice
Mems Hair Dress

Enter the two latest styles of hair
cuts for men! the bob and the pine
apple bob!
Contrary to expectations, the bob
made it's debut in spring. 1t is moth
ing less than heavy shock, bobbed
evenly at the back Of the neck, similar
to the style in favor with fappers. Not
fraction of an inch too high may the
hair be cut for the fastidious clipper"
who is really the only proponent of the
fad, according to interviews with sew
eral Kenosha BARRIERS today.
Rudolf Valentino, he of the hand
some countenance and alleged bigamy
and pajama party fame, is one of the
reasons why the style has come into
favor. Despite the press reports that
Rudolf was in need of a hair cut when
he appeared in cotrt recently, his
"fipper" admirers have taken him
seriously and are trying to educate To-
cal BARRIERS to the style.
eve have not received many re-
quests, but occasionally some young
fellow enters the shop and gives orders
for haircut, the mere thought of
which adds gray to the head of a self
respecting barber. One young man
recently asked for Chinaman haircut.
The man with his mind set on GER
tain style no matter how nature in
tended his beard to grow" one of the
BARRIERS declared.
Of the pineapple slice Kenosha has
seen but little, but will soon become
intimately acquainted with it. The
hair is allowed to grow exceedingly
long and is combed and trimmed to
give the appearance of the fruit of the
prickly pine; with ends projecting
above the ears and at angles from the
back of the head. Wallace Reid, lately
snapped by the camera man in that
tonsorial disguise, is generally accred-
tied with it's introduction.

DRASTIC MEANS
TO CURB WRECKS
Northern Pacific Railway
to Get Your Number"
On Crossings.
DON'T BE CARELESS

Motorists who "take a chance" at
railroad crossings on the Northern
Pacific will receive written notice and
warning from the company.
THE indifference with which the
average person in an automobile re-
CARDS the hazard to life and limb while
approaching or passing over railroad
crossings has resulted in so much loss
OF life and in so many persons being
MANNED that it is becoming sub
Ject of serious concern for US as we'll
as national concern for all the rail-
roads,, said Fred NJ. Metcalfe, Super
intendent of the Northern Pacific Safe
ty department.
For the purpose of ascertaining
what cars are being driven over these
crossings in careless or thoughtless
manner the Northern Pacific is hav-
ing trained observers check important
crossings during the present sixty-day
period. With view of conserving life
and limb, the owners of such cars will
receive. written advice from us as a
result of this check, in which they
will be told if drivers took the trou-
Bile of having their cars under per-
feet control when approaching cross
ings, and looking in both directions
before getting on the track, practical
ly all of the 1000 casualties happening
yearly would never occur.
Cross Crossings Cautiously
ION the N. P. system there are about
10000 crossings, over which rush thou
sands of automobiles, often without
their drivers looking to see whether
train is approaching. Illustrative
of this lack of care recent observa-
lions showed that at one street cross
ing in Missoula, Montana, and one in
Fargo, N. D. there were respectively
% and 265 machines driven over it in
one day between a. m. and 6 D. m
without the least precaution being taxi
en- by the drivers to insure their own
safety or the safety of those who were
riding with them. In some of these
5l9 cases the crossing flagmans stop
disc, displayed when trains are close
ly approaching, was totally disre-
garded and the machines were saved
from being wrecked and their occu-
pants killed or injured only by ex-
listing circumstances and not by any
cautionary act of theirs"
Mr.. Metcalfe said the Northern Pa
cific has made a careful study for
years of the causes of railroad cross
ing accidents, to prevent which it has
erected conspicuous signs, installed
many electric signals, eliminated MANY
dangerous. crossings by, costly con-
struction, and is constantly striving to
educate the public to the fact that a
grade crossing should always be con-
sidered hazard and cannot be made
fool-proof. State authorities are
awakening to realization of this
hazard and are cooperating with rail
roads in their educational activities,
said Mr.. Metcalfe.

BEN FAY HURT
in MOTOR SPILL
Candidate for Sheriff is
Thrown When Steering
Knuckle Breaks.
OUT ELECTIONEERING


The first casualty of the strenuous
fall campaign for sheriff occurred on
Thursday afternoon when Ben Fay, one
of the candidates, was injured in an
automobile accident, while out cam
paigning in his own behalf. The steer
ing wheel of the Ford car driven by
Fay broke and he lost control of the
car. 1t lurched forward and turtled,
tossing its victim out on the highway.
Fay is resting today at his home 473
North Chicago street, where it has
been ascertained that no ribs have
been broken and it is believed there
are no internal injuries.
Fay Alone in Accident.
Fay, believing in the old adage that
it is the early bird who gets the worm,
had already commenced his campaign
for sheriff, and was out Thursday
making the rounds of the towns in the
county for the purpose of leaving his
card, and leaving the impression of his
personality on the voters who would
decide his fate in the fall. He was
alone in his Ford sedan at the time
the accident befell him, and it hap
pened so rapidly, as is usual in such
cases, that he did not have very clear
picture of just what occurred.
The candidate for sheriff was driv-
ing on the high road on the high point
near Silverlake. Suddenly the steer
ing knuckle broke and the first thing
the motorist knew he was out of the
car and things were happening fast.
He had the impression that he was
thrown and that the car waltzed over
nib, and then darkness followed.
When he came too, he was lying along
side of his car, and the latter was
completely turtled with its four wheels
turned heavenwards.
Road Men to the Rescue.
Some men who were working on the
road came to the rescue of the victim.
The next motorist who appeared, the
driver of an Illinois car, offered his
assistance, and Fay was taken into
Silverlake where physician was sum-
moned. Later in the evening Ben
Gobel of Silverlake, took Fay to his
home in Kenosha.
At first it was thought that some of
the victims ribs were broken, but ex-
animation showed that while Fay was
badly bruised, his bones were intact.
It was reported at noon that his con-
dition was favorable and that he was
resting comfortably at home.

Holland Sending
Farmers to Canada

Regina, Sask.-Farm laborers are
being brought into Saskatchewan from
Holland. Hundreds of workers will ar
rive during the next few weeks. Each
will be given guarantee of years
work at good wages. At the end of
the year most Of them are expected
to settle farms of their own.
Saskatchewan has had a farm labor
shortage. During last year vast acre
age of new land along the transcon-
tinental lines of the Canadian Nation
al Railways has gone undehr the pillow
with the influx of settlers. This
has resulted in the need of additional
farm help.
The decision to import men from
Holland is in line with the general
immigration plan but are carefully
examined as to their qualifications.
Only those who are fitted for agricul-
tural pursuits are selected.

Nash Truck Burned
on Sheridan Road
Driver of Truck Has Narrow Escape
When Truck Takes Fire Thurs
day Evening.

One of the Nash Motor company
trucks being run north on Sheridan
drive south of Racine at o'clock on
Thursday evening suddenly burst into
flames and the driver, whose name
could not be learned, had narrow es-
cape from being burned. The Racine
fire department was asked to send a
company to the scene, but Chief Cape
realized that his service would not ac-
complish much and no apparatus was
sent out. The entire cab of the truck
was burned as was also the front end
of the mchine, and for time the wreck
blocked traffic.
The cause of the fire was not ascer-
tanned, but it was said that it had
probably been caused by lighted
cigar or cigarette being thrown into
the truck from passing automobile.

noon that it was< at his instructions
which caused Joseph Lovelace and De-
los Pease, two garage men of Fox River
Station, to get into difficulties. Long

afternoon when the owner of the Velie
