Don't Quit.

"heh things go wrong. as they some
times will,
When the road you're trudping seems
all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts
are high
And you want to smile, but YOU have
to sigh,
when care is pressing you down bit
hest, II you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns
AS everyone of US sometimes learns
And many failure turns about
When he might have won had he
stuck it out:
Don't give up, tho the pace seems
slow
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than
1t seems to faint and falterng man.
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the
victOr's cup.
And he learned too late. when the
night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you can never tell how close
you are,
1t NAV be near when it seems afar:
So stick to the fight when you're
hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that
you mustn't quit.

SEEK KIDNAPER

CARRIED AWAY In CAR
Thirteen Year-OId Girl Seized
and Carried Away in Au-

Mystery surrounds the details OF
what appears to have been kidnap.
ing staged Monday evening about
eight o'clock on North Main street
when a thirteen-year-o girl was
carried away in an automobile against
her will and despite her screams. The
episode was reported to the police but
their investigation has failed as yet
either to identify the girl or to pro-
duce any strong clew as to the identi-
ty of the alleged kidnaper.
The report of the affair was giver
to the police by Mrs. Harry Gordon
and Mrs. Rosenthal, both Of 47472
Rowland avenue, who happened to be
walking along North Main street just
south of its intersection with Milwau'
kee avenue when the incident oc'
Cured.
ChiId's Screams Unheeded.
According to the story which they
told the police, they saw a girl about
thirteen years old leisurely roller
skating south on the west side of the
street. An automobile with curtain;
drawn speeded up to the sidewalk anC
from it darted man.
"He threw something into the little
girls face and when she screamed
grabbed her up in his arms, and thrust
her into the car" declared the WON
men. after they got in the car they
smothered up her screams and speed
ed away"
The only clew to solve the mystery
is that the police have secured the
license number of the car, this being
239-209 Wis. %. kilograms to the
state department at Madison to trace
the car were being sent by the police
today.
No Girl Reported Missing.
cit is certainly strange" declared
Chief Logan today regarding the cpl
sode. "That was more than eighteer
hours ago and yet we have had no re.
port whatever of any girl missing ii

it was real kidnapping but we are
taking no chances and making thor.
ough investigation. Any additional
information from any others who saw
the episode or who know mefe regard

CIVIL SUITS IN
CIRCUIT COURT
Case of Leach VS.. Wisconsin
Gas Went to the Jury
This Morning.
GRANT TWO DIVORCES

After sn interval of several weeks
circuit court is again in session with
Judge E. B. Belden presiding and Mon
cay afternoon several divorces were
granted and the testimony was con-
cluded in the case of Arthur E. Leach
VS.. the Wisconsin Gas company. The
case went to the jury at 1880 O'clock
this morning.
Leach, through his attorney, R. V.
Baker, asked for $4,000 damages from
the Wisconsin Gas as the result of an
accident November Z, 1920, when he
was struck by an automobile driven by
D. J. Evans, an employee of the gas
company.
Stopped to Fix Car.
Just before the accident which oc-
Cured in the evening, Leach was re-
pairing his automobile on the Lake
Shore road and stood beside the car,
Evans drove upon him and struck him,
and as a result of the accident Leach
sustained a fractured leg and other
INJURIES The plaintiff claimed that the
accident had happened through the
negligence of the gas company en-
ployee, testifying that he himself and
his own car were we'll to the right of
the road where he had parked in order
to adjust his car.
Evans called to the stand by the
plaintiff said that there was nothing
about Leachs car to distinguish it on
the road, either by lights or color. He
said he saw Leach only when it was
200 late to avoid the encounter, when
it was impossible to get out of the
road quickly enough.
Two Wives Get Divorces.
The case of Roy Stephenson VS. the
Wisconsin Gas company started this
morning. Stephenson is sueing for
recovery of about $1,100 as the result
of an accident when his Studebaker car
was damaged in an encounter with a
street car.
The case of White VS.. Hansmann
called Monday morning for trial was
settled just as jury had been secured
to try the case. Settlement was made
for the sum of $3.50.
Divorces were granted to Evelyn Ayl-
ward from Frank Awkward and to
Grace E. Wells from Rex Wells.
The~Aylwards were married at Wau-
kegan, H., January II, 1913, and have
two children, Clarice aged and Rich
ard aged 7. Mrs. Awkward sued for and
secured separate maintenance decree
in July, 1920, at Woodstock, ILL.,, and
the divorce action in Kenosha followed.
Mrs. Awkward was represented by Cal
vim Stewart and Awkward, who contested
the case, by R. V. Baker, as attorneys.
Mrs: Awkward on her showing, however,
secured the divorce and was awarded
the custody of the children and alimony
for their support.
Rex Wells and Grace Wells were
married July IL, 1918, at Genoa, ILL.,,
and have no children. Divorce was
commenced in 1919 by Mrs. Wells but
dropped upon a reconciliation. Divorce
was granted her in circuit court here
today on the showing of desertion of
the husband.
Arthur Leach was awarded damages
in the amount of $3.50 and costs by
circuit court jury in his case today.

May Snow Storm
Sets New Record
Last kick of Winter Hits Kenosha
With Fury of a Blizzard on
Tuesday Night.

The last .kick" of winter-that is
most people hope that it is the last
kick-struck Kenosha with a fury on
Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night
and several inches of snow driven by
high wind made the most unusual
May night in many years history.
During the late afternoon the snow
storm took on the velocity of a biz
card and while no serious accidents
were reported as result of the storm
traffic was slowed up considerably.
Messages from northwestern Wiscon-
sin reported heavy fall of snow and
some of the trains were delayed on
account of the fury of the storm. The
weatherman has promised warmer
weather for the rest of the week but
he admits the possibility of other
snow furries before the warm wealth
er comes to stay.
