HATBANDS

In the story of the plain little band
that circles the crown Of mans hat
lies an interesting fashion of bygone
days. During the Plantagenet period
In England the head covering for men
was a hood, from which was sus-
pended the diripipe or long tppet.
Picture our men walking down Broad

Madison, Wis. - The World League
Against Alcoholism meeting at Toronto,
Canada, November "a to 20, will be
asked to hold it's 1924 convention at
Milwaukee, R. P Hutton, superintend-
ent of the Wisconsin Anti-Saloon
League announced today.
"a meeting in Wisconsin will give
every nation the best chance in the
world to hear from its own people the
story of prohibition" Mr.. Hutton said
in his announcement, pointing out that
every European nation and race is rep
resented in Wisconsin.
"The fact that Wisconsin, with con-
glomeration of all the people of Eu-
rope constituting two-thirds of its
population enforced prohibition proves
that Europeans will Stand for, obey and
enforce prohibition, and the task of
any one nation of Europe, enforcing
prohibition with one nationality, would
be infinitely easier than the task in
Wisconsin," the Anti-saloon League
superintendent declared.
Mr. Hutton said that Wisconsin is
a cross section of Europe and would
show its people that Europeans will
obey prohibition and back its enforce
ment

information on rural P. T. A., but she
heard no reports from rural commune
ties, all reports being city reports. This
shows the necessity of rural delegates
attending such conferences.
Reports of several P. T. A. were pre-
sented by the following: President
Mrs. j. Clark, Kenosha High school;
President Mrs. E. L. Shippee, Kenosha
Junior High; President Mrs. o. w.

schools. In the county G. E. Curtiss
reported for Salem Center; Mrs. Frank
Rowbottom, Bristol; Mrs. Ira Burgess,
KelloGgs Corner; Mrs. Joseph Stratten,
Maple Ridge; Mrs. A. R. Turner, Lin
coin school. All gave good reports and
showed the splendid work being done
in different lines of p. T. A. work.
Miss Alberta Worsley, supervising
teacher of Kenosha county, outlined
the work for the county P. T. A. work
for the year. The things to work for
were: Warm lunches in every school,;
screens on all schools; perfect attend
anceN only 81 per cent attendance
meaning 20 per cent loss of money;
more play ground equipment; more
graduates from 9Th grade; more entries
in high school; encouragement of club
work among the children; protection of
bird and animal life; rural junior high
schools; more work in current events
and that every branch of the organi-
cation should become affiliated with
the state organization.
~ i
by Miss Wofsley was the establishment
of branch libraries in every township
of county.
The following resolution was made
by Miss Worsley and adopted by the
county organization at the conference:
Whereas, the work of the P. T. A.
is so very helpful and valuable, and
whereas, the work of the p. T. A.
should be put on a permanent basis,
therefore be it resolved, that the mem
brs of the P. T. A. of Kenosha county
go on record as favoring the addition
of course Of P. I. A. work with credit
to the course of study in training
schools and Normal schools.
Remarks were also made by members
Of the county school committee on
their appreciation of the work done by
the P. t. A.

tives were guests Of the county officers

ALLIES OUTLINE
PLAN FOR MEETING
ChanceIIories at Paris, London and
Rome Exchange Notes Planning
for Pre-Lausanne Meeting.

London, Eng. - The troublesome
question of how a meeting of the AL
lies could be arranged before the Lau-
same paece conference for the pur-
pose of outlining the Allied program
as Great Britain has insisted, has been
solved at Paris, Rome and London.
Neither Premiers Poincare of France
nor Mussolini Of Italy can leave his
capital for a conference elsewhere be-
fore proceeding to Lausanne, it has
developed, but Lord Curzon, the Bri-
tish secretary for foreign has arrang-
ed to see Premier Poincare in Paris
on the way OF Lausanne probably on
Thursday and the conversation will Be
continued by the two on the train
from Paris to Lausanne. Premier
Mussolini has arranged to leave Rome
for Lausanne Friday and join his col
leagues for preliminary meeting at
Lausanne.
Reports from Geneva that the Turks
would refuse to enter the Lausanne
conference if the Allies made any pre-
liminary agreements, evoked the state
ment in official circles here that lit
tie Importance was attached to this.
1t was pointed out that it was the
customary thing. for the Allies to have
preliminary conferences under SINH
lar circumstances, and that there was
no ground upon which the Turks could
protest against such a meeting now
Official messages from Constantinople
today the situation was somewhat cas-
Ter, the Turks not becoming any more
The opinion is expressed in official
quarters that, in view of the easing
of the tension, the Allied representa-
tives at Constantinople have decided it
is unnecessary for the present to pro-
claim a state Of siege.
A news agency dispatch from Con-
stantinople, dated Monday says the
Allies had handed Rodosto over to the
nationalists and that Adrianople would
be turned over next Sunday

A. and their guests. Then in short
talk she expressed sorrow that all
schools of Kenosha County were not
represented. While Kenosha County
is small in miles, it is big in an edu-
C4tional way. Also in the lead in P.
7. A. work. The educational value of
a P. 7. A. to community is very
important. Each president should try
to make his own P. T. A. the most
energetic and effective in Kenosha
county. Presidents must give time,
energy and lose some little sleep to
keep meetings interesting as we'll as
instructive. Study your community
and find out what interests most and
endeavor not to let interest wane.
Let us forgo ahCnd until we are
100 per cent organized. "Let us go
over the top as Kenosha county al
ways has done. Prof. A. J. Smith of

vited the guests to inspect the school
and dormitory. Mr.. Smith then told
how important P. T. A. was to the

any faults.
