Commissioner Hands
Out Many Permits
(By Associated Press.)

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of doctors
and druggists for permission to handle
intoxicants under the state law are
being received in large numbers daily,
by w. Stanley Smith, prohibition COM
missioner. All applications must be
accompanied by recommendation of
the district attorney of the county in
which the applicant resides.
Few requests for permits have been
denied as yet, but Mr.. Smith expects
that a number of doctors and drug
gists who were allowed to handle
liquors last year, will be refused per-
mits for the present year. Several
breweries Of the state are to be
treated in like manner, the com
missioner says.
An increase in the number of per-
mits is expected since recent opinion
of the attorney general held that all
doctors and veterinarians having alco-
hol for sterilizing purposes would be
required to have state sanction and
pay the $1,000 fee called for.

HIS OTHER STORY.

Probably no man in Kenosha, was more re-
sponsble for Kenosha securing the city-man-
ager form of government than Charles H.
Goodman. It was one of his two hobbies and
he rode in tandem with another one and that
was the demand for a one-cent postage in the
nation. It's big job for Kenosha man to
tackle when he goes out to revise the postal
rates of a nation but lot of people thought
that it was impossible for any man or any body
of men to undermine and break up the old form
of government in Kenosha
Goodman has lot of information on the one
cent postage rate. He has presented it to in
dividuals and associations in Kenosha and
while it may not even make ripple on the
placid waves about the postoffice department
in Washington there is no reason why Keno
sha and Goodman should not be made the start
ing point to get one-cent letter postage Re-
cent reports of the postmaster general have
shown that the business of carrying the mails
is profitable The people expect service rath-
err than profit from the postofice department
and if service can be bought for penny there
is no reason to expect that the government
will insist on collecting double this amount for
Carrying our letters.
Kenosha nd Goodman can do a real service
to all the people of the nation by just keeping
at it. If it is regarded good in Kenosha some
missionary work may bring about similar
feeling in Wisconsin and with it started in Wis
consin it is going to spread to other states.
It would be a big thing for Kenosha to be the
city to bring to the realization of the nation
the fact that the postofice department could be
proftably handled under a one-cent postage
system.

Court Ruling is in
Favor of Undertakers

balming is not an es-
sential to undertaking which is dis
tinet business, Judge E. Ray Stevens
of the Dane county circuit court ruled
today in holding invalid a. law enacted
by Che 1921 Legislature to require all
undertakers to qualify for an embalm-
er's license before being permitted to
work in Wisconsin. Judge Stevens in
his order said that "the legislature has
the undoubted power to exercise con-
troll over the burial of the dead so far
as such control is necessary to protect
the public health and promote the pub
lie safety" and in this may require
licenses from both embalmers and un-
dertakers, but, "cannot go beyond
reasonable limits" r. M. Hoyt, depu-
ty attorney-general, as a representa-
tive of the state, asked that the Law
be held invalid.

ELECTING A SCHOOL BOARD

1t is important that the people of Kenosha
in their enthusiasm for the new commission,
manager government, and the election Of the
first set of commissioners should not forget
the fact that nine members of the Board of
Education are to be chosen at the coming city
election. The operations of this board direct
ing the schools of the city is not changed in
any way by the adoption of the new form of
government and with the program that is out
lined for the new year the people should see
to itthat the best possible men and women are
named for membership in the board The
school board has always been the most import
ant board in the city. 1t is going to be more
important this year than ever before A COM
mission of fifteen leading men and women of
tae city are busy now working out plan 1or
'e schools of the. city for a period of ten or
tteen years. These men and women are work
irg unhampered by official interference with a
view of finding out just what the schools of Ke-
osha need and what is the best way to get it.
The report of this commission is going to be
completed some time next spring and it is go
ing to succeed or fail largely by the intelligent

support which is given it by the members Of
the Board of Education.

support winch is given IL Dy the members OF
the Board Of Education.
If Kenosha ever needed an intelligent, for
ward looking board of education it is this year.
Undoubtedly there will be no friction between
the city manager and the Board of Education
and if the board gets the full idea of what Ke-
nosha needs for the next ten years and starts
to work it out on definite and intelligent line
the members are going to have the cooperation
Of the city commission and the city manager.
The old idea that the school board was a
sort of a training place for paid job on the
common council should go into the discard
along with the rest Of the old system of gov
eminent and the people should see that this
board is going to be a great independent board
with the welfare Of some eight thousand of
the children in Kenosha liz it's hands Care
full search should be made now for men and
women who may serve on this board and an
organized effort should be made in every ward
to send to the board someone who has the adj
vancement Of the schools at heart and the
courage of his or ner convictions.
Kenosha does not want to be ranked seventh
or eighth among the cities of the state in sup
port of education. It wants to be first in the
state and it wants to be first by having an in
telligent management of the schools which
will get for the children dollar s-worth of ed
ucation for every dollar that is put into the
school fund.

SeaL0n8nt8

Put on ship, with the food-tide flowing,
Put a ship with the great wind blowing,
For I am weary Of the city,
Of the close packed houses the pavemens gritty
Put ship for far port leaving
Let me feel the lift of the groundswell heaving
Know the roll and pitch the high bow unges,
Thrusng through the there the porpose plunges
Put ship with her masthead swinging
Spray on her decks and her taut stays singing,
Singing with tune of the deep seas making,
Singing with voice there is mistakng.
Put ship with her route uncharted
Tramping all the back to where she starred,
/ sick of crowds and of plots and scheming,
Oh the white wake and the white gus screaming!
/ have heard the voice there denying,
Heard the call in each soft breeze signing,
Heard it whisper INV, Come, On salt roveri"
Put ship, bound the wide world over!

The city-manager form Of government is not
clique government. That is one of the
beauties of it. To make it representative the
whole people must elect the commissioners and
not have them hand-picked by some, little
clique of politicians. Get your axe sharpened
and be prepared to cut down every one of the
candidates put out by some old political ring.
Let's get this started right.

No one objects to the state adding money to
the income tax roll when it takes it from the
men who have managed by hook or crook to
avoid the proper assessment of their income.
The people believe that all should pay and pay
fairly. Get every nickel that is coming to the
state under fair tax and it is probable that
it will not be necessary to hunt up any new
form of taxation.

just leaving the station as he reached

was stopped by the conductor, and it
was found that Johns injuries were
so light that he was able to get on the

SPARE THE RINSINC
AND SPOIL THE
), CLOTHES

No matter how carefully you
have washed your clothes, if you
have not rinsed every bit of soap
out, they will still be yellow. Use
soap that dissolves completely
and there is less danger Of par
ticles sticking to the clothes to
yellow them.
Rinse is an entirely new kind of
soap that dissolves instantly,
making both water and clothes
slippery with its pure, rich suds.
1t soaks all the dirt out Of the
clothes so that no hard rubbing
is needed to get them spotlessly
clean.
Rinse is easier to rinse out than
soap with solid particles to stick
to the fabric. But because the
rich Rinse suds loosen every bit
of dirt, very thorough rinsing is
necessary to carry off the dirt.
- Rinse is rapidly replacing bar
soap for the family wash.
