Daily Health Hint
HABIT.

HABIT.
When children are attending school
given times for study should be set
aside and, as near as possible, this
time should be adhered to.
Encourage regular habits in home
study, concentration and attention to
the task at hand.
Give the child or children a place as
free from noise and distraction as pos
sible. They will find enough distrac-
tions without furnishing any. Watch
that the lighting is suitable.
Fix time, either afternoon or eve
ming, when the studies should be be-
gun and see to it that the child makes
a practice of studying at this time.
Good habits for later years are thus
formed.
Don't refuse the child aid in per-
picking problems, but try to let him
use his own mind in so far as possible
and be certain that he clearly sees the
answer in the end. More damage than
a little is done through children ac-
quiring only vague notions of things
that, when simply explained, become
quite clear to them.

MORE PAY FOR POLICE OFFICERS.

The police officers of Kenosha are sending a
petition to the city council asking for an in
crease in wages. They are acting entirely in
their rights as citizens and as police officers.
Ii they are not being paid for the party they
are contributing to the welfare of the com
munlty, we should pay them more. sesr
Pay of police officers is business PROPOSE
ton just the same as employing any other kind
OF labor. The people of the city of Kenosha
want proper police protection, they want in
telligent and honest men on the police force,
they want men of courage and discretion, men
who viii do their duty wnen they are called
upon They want high class workers and they
should expect to pay for such workers.
POSSIBLY higher paid police department
would mean higher grade of work in this de-
partment. We are not criticizing the depart
ment in any way, and we are Of the opinion
that the Kenosha Police Department is, as a
whole, of much higher grade men than are to
be found in similar departments in other cities.
1t costs money to live in Kenosha and these
costs apply to police officer just the same as
TO other people. In employing police officers,
the city must enter into competition with the
other employers of labor in Kenosha, and if it is
to get men who will make worth while guard
Ians OF the law, it must expect to pay them a
fair wage and a wage as large as these same
men can earn at other employment in Kenosha.
The time has passed when the average man
is SO anxious to wear star and have a little
authority conferred upon him that he is will
ing to forget all the good things in life. A
brightly polished police star may look pretty
on blue coat, but it does not buy shoes for the
babies or put porter house steak on the family
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1924-10-23

table The payment of police officers must be
in keeping with the pay accorded to other
workers in Kenosha. The police officers has
plenty of work to do, and travelling police beat
is pretty hard job. For steady work it offers
about the maximum to be demanded. Men IN
clerical positions in the department often must
work for long hours The detective does not
regulate his work by the clock, and when you
find one who quits work by the whistle, you will
find detective of little value to the force ne
is working on.
Being good policeman means being good
citizen, being thoughtful of the family at home
and providing for the comfort of those depend
ent on him. He must be paid wage equivalent
to the demands of decent living and a wage
which makes it possible for him to save little
money All police officers take chances some
time, and they should be allowed a little some
thing for the risk of their employment.
The police officer should be paid sufficient to
keep him honestly working on one job. A
police officer who must have sidelines to pay
his debts is not going to be a very good officer
He must be able to get his whole living and the
support of his family out of his salary or he
may get into mischief
There are many temptations for police off
GERS. Most of them withstand these tempta-
tions. Some of them feel the need of more
money and fall for them.
1t would not be possible to pay crooked man
enough to keep him from being crooked, but a
fair salary always helps the man who wants
to go straight to keep going straight.
This problem of pay of police officers is a
real problem for the people Of Kenosha, and it
should be settled with view of being fair to
the police officer and being fair to the people
The people want good service and they should
want to paw for it at a fair rate

CAMPAIGN EXPENSES AGAIN.

Mr. LaFollette lays his hand on the table and
indicates clearly that his objection to the Re-
publican campaign fund is that it is being used
to defeat him.
Possibly Mr. LaFollette is of the opinion that
men who have investments which may be
wrecked by his propaganda want to spend
money for LaFollette barbecues.
Not single bit of evidence has been pro-
duced to show that either the Republican or
the Democratic party has spent a nickel in I'M
lawful expenditures. tfAa
1t may be that the Republican party has
spent more money in advancing the candidacy
of Mr.. Coolidge than either the Democrats or
Socialists have spent on their campaign for
Davis and LaFollette, but it can be said with
out any expectation Of successful contradic-
ton, that every nickel that can be secured is
being spent for Davis and LaFollette
There are a lot of men in this country who
consider Mr.. LaFollette and his associates a
national menace. They fear him just like peo-
pie at home fear the smallpox and the diph-
iberia They want to use every fair method to
battle this advance of socialist propaganda.
They are honest with themselves and honest
with the rest of the people.
Dozens of bureaus have been organized to
advance the cause of LaFollette and most Of
them are supporting themselves, but nothing
is said of the operation of these bureaus. Moth
ing is said of the great funds raised by railway
men to fight for the government ownership of
railways with the hope that government owner
ship will mean increased pay for them. We be-
lieve that these men have perfect right to form
these bureaus and spend their money working
for LaFolette if they want to and no one is
interfering with their work.
Undoubtedly hundreds of thousands of dol
lars are being spent on the LaFollette cam
paign which will never find their way to a re-
port of any campaign committee.
Certainly the filed of politics is one in which
individuals as well as parties may fight for
their own particular brand of politics. Honest
expenditures along honest lines are the things
that should be demanded rather than peevish
kicking, because people insist on having real
campaign for their own candidate

The important thing in electing officials for
Kenosha county, is to get the men who recog-
nize the law and recognize the duty of men to
enforce it. If you vote for this kind of candi-

name happens to be or what ticket he is on.
Better look over and make certain of your man
and then look for the party designation. Men
are still more important than parties.
