Aged Man is
Called by Death
Henry Leininger, 88 Years of Age
Died Sunday Morning at Home
of His Nephew.

Henry Leininger, aged 88 years, long
a railway coach fnisher in West Allis,
died just after midnight Sunday morn
ing at the home of his nephew, Henry
T. Leininger, 482 Grover street, after
a long illness from the weaknesses due
to his advancing years. The deceased
had lived most of his life in Milwau-
kee and West Allis coming to Kenosha
to make his home with his nephew only
a comparatively few years ago.
He was born in New York state in
1886, living his youth in the Empire
state. In 1865 he was united in mar
riage to Georgiana Walterlin in Mil
waukee, who died several years ago.
There were no children.
He had been a railway coach finish
er for many years and in his later
active life conducted repair shop of
this nature in Milwaukee. He had
been a most efficient workman.
The remains were taken to the Han
sen Funeral Home where the funeral
services will be held Wednesday morn
ing at ten o'clock after which the re-
mains will be taken to Milwaukee to
be laid to rest in the family plot in
the Forest Home cemetery there.

Plan an Organization to
Handle Problems Com
mon to Merchants.
KENOSHA IS LEADER
National Council Formed to
Combine State Groups
Mutual Protection.

Efforts to coordinate all retail in
terests in the state of Wisconsin into
superficial organization are being
started, according to c. M. Reed, sec
rotary of the Kenosha Retailers as
ISOLATION. The new machine is being
constructed along the lines of the .Ke-
nosha group.
Similar moves are being made in
other states, and it is planned to weld
them all together into one big nation
al outfit. A nucleus for this organiza-
ti0n, was formed recently when the Re-
tailers' National Council was formed
at French Lick, Ind. Nine national as
sociations of diversified lines were
consolidated there.
This organization included the ma
tional bodies of the hardware, retail
druggists, retail clothiers and furnish
ers, retail grocers, retail jewelers. as
ISOLATION, shoe retailers association,
federation of retail implement dealers,
garment retailers and the dry goods
association.
Nine Billion Dollars.
The combined membership of the
council exceeds 10000 retail stores,
employing about 1,4O0,00O people and
transacting an annual business of more
than $9,000,000,000.
On all questions where the organiza-
ton is not in absolute harmony no
action will be taken. The problem of
price maintenance which some of. the
merchants favor, but upon which there
is some objection, will be left alone.
However, on tax reduction the entire
group stand solidly as unit and def
mite steps will be taken to let the
federal government know what the
attitude of the council is.
In such matters as taxes and legisla-
ton there seems to be a oneness of
aim and viewpoint which can be con-
solidated in perfect harmony for the
purpose of bringing pressure to bear.
the immense volume of which will
make itself felt.
kenOsha Largest Group,
Kenosha has the largest and fine
most active retailers association in the
state. Realizing the value of this
combined pressure in dealing with the
state legislature, Earl w. Foster has
been selected as the field representa-
tive OF the state organization, and is
now visiting the various Wisconsin
cities.
There are already functioning large
numbers of state organizations. each
of which deals with the problems ne
culiar to its own particular member
ship. In each of these groups there
are problems which can be handled
more efficiently through a centralized
organization. This win be the work
Of the Wisconsin Retail association.
Mr.. Reed pointed out that one Joint
annual state convention, with group
sessions, would be one feature of eco
nomy and would provide an opportpni-
ty for the discussion of, and action
upon all problems which effect the en-
tire state retail trade. Madison. he
said, would have to give consideration
to the wishes of body of this sort.

Keep Wisconsin
on HOlstein Map
Wisconsin l.clstein Association Has
Succeeded in Task of Keeping
Wisconsin On Top.

Eau Claire, Wis.-Placing the Wis
consin Holstein on the cattle map of
the world has been the thirty-two year
program of the Wisconsin Holstein as
sociations since their oganization. Now,
at the termination of that period, it
appears that the result-of the effort
has been achieved.
In the coming convention of the Wis
consin Holstein association at Eau
Claire, Feb. Is, this work of thirty
two years will be reviewed and the
Wisconsin-bred Holstein will be hon
ored by speakers who are authorities
on the dairy industry.
Twenty-eight billboard signs scat
tered in various parts of the state
along principal highways tell the story
of the Wisconsin Holstein to the thou
sands of tourists who visit the state
every year. The fame of the breed
has been exploited in dozens of cat
tie and dairy magazines and periodic
ais in America. The show and sales
rings of nearly every state have seen
examples of the Wisconsin-bred Hol-
stein at it's best,
30 mas Che record OF Wisconsin
Holstein family been written in agri-
cultural and dairy history, according
to officers of the Wisconsin Holstein
associations.
Sixty-three counties in the state
have Holstein units affiliated with the
parent organization. Each one of these
maintains definite programs of work
calculated to advance the interests of
the breed at home and abroad.
