them in various ways and with differ

many of them the best kind. A small
piece of ham, a piece or two of left

Memorabilia of Famous
Novelist Given Museum

All the memorabilia of George Sand,
which were inherited by the grand
daughter Of the great novelist, Aurore
Sand, have been beQueathed to the
Carnavalet museum.
Letters, manuscripts Of novels and
numerous articles Of extrinsic worth
all are now on view in a part of the
building called the "Musee George
Sand" and the many admirers of
George Sand, most Of whom apparent
ly haven't read her voluminOus ro-
mances, are tripping u to the Car
navalet.
However, the article most charac-
teristic of the author Of La Petite
Fadette," a big black cigar, isn't in
the collection, much to the disappoint-
ment of the visitors and also of the
museum attendants, who are constant
ly being asked whereabouts the
cigars are"
Aurore Sand has come into the pub
lie eye not only because of her gift
to the Carnavalet but also because
she has just written a novel, en-
~carnacion." The first book to appear
under her own name, it has been re-
ceived with considerable approval by
the critics, who do not hesitate to
say Aurore has inherited some of her
grandmother's genius.-New York

FEDERAL AGENTS ACCUSE RED
CLAN OF SCATTERING
INFECTED DOGS

San Francisco-A roundup of mem
bers of Industrial Workers Of the
World in Oregon, Washington, Cali
fornia, Nevada and Arizona is to be
conducted by the United States de-
partment of justice because of the
alleged activity of the organization
in the states in spreading the foot
and mouth disease in California and
illegally aiding in the general boy
colt of California goods, it wa an
nounced Thursday by Grove L. Fink,
assistant United States district at
torney,
The campaign was directed from
the 1. w. w. headquarters in Chicago,
Fink said. The defendants will be
prosecuted under a section of the
special antitrust act which penalties
any illegal act that will result in
blocking interstate trade.
Dogs Carry Disease
One mar is under arrest in San
Luis Obispo and another in Sacra-
nento, it was announced by Fink. In
fected dogs We're used to spread the
infection over a large area, Fink
said.
The names of the men arrested are
being kept secret.
The department of justice was ask
ed to investigate after the foot and
mouth ~epizootic took a long and mys-
FERROUS jump from St. Anislaus to
Los Angeles county. Fink said. The
possibility that the bacteria might
have been deliberately placed in ber-
ry and herd shipments was carefully
looked into.
The spread of the e%pizootic was al
linked up with stickers, pamphlets
and other propaganda matter alleged
to have come from Chicago head
quarters, some of which said:
Boycott California goods until
and Zuhr are indicated"
Boycott California goods until

WELCOME THE ZoNING TEST.

PEOPLE who are interested in Kenosha and
who have seen a long step forward IN the
passage of the zoning ordinance welcome the
proposed court test of it's provisions. we nope
and believe that this ordinance will hurdle
every test of the courts We know that 1t IS
founded in common sense and that it has been
written with view Of meeting all OF the de-
mands of the laws of the state.
Tt is important for Kenosha to be certain
that this ordinance meets with every provl-
sion of the statute. 1t is only fair to the peo-
pie who have a sufficient home town patriotism
to cheerfully comply with it's provisions that
they be safe-guarded against those who will
not give that fair consideration to the city OF
their homes
The ordinance to be of value must be bas-
ed on the law 1t must be enforcible against
everyone and not discriminatory. 1t must be
an ordinance which will meet with every re-
uuirement and it should be an ordinance which
has on it the sanction of the supreme court OF
the state. There should be no attempt to COM
promise this action brought to test it's val
idity, but rather there should be every pos
sible effort made to speed the completion OF
the court test.
If the ordinance is not in keeping with the
Wisconsin laws it should be repealed and an
other ordinance passed It is one of the great

real attempt that has been made to furnish
insurance for real estate values in the city
1t is real protection to the man who owns
his own home and who wants it protected as
his home.
Insurance to be good insurance must be the
kind that has the law behind it. That is what
is desired for the zoning ordinance. 1t must
have teeth that bite, and not gutta percha
teeth which bend and refuse to work when call
ed into action.
The opinion of citizen or an official of this
ordinance is not very valuable. It's the opinion
of a court of record that counts and this opin-
ion should be obtained with minimum loss OF
time.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1924-03-13

We must pay taxes. 1t costs money to run a
government and the only place that the gov
eminent has to get this money is by taxing
someone or taxing something which in the end
means the same thing
1t is to be hoped that the men in Washing
ton who make the laws will find way to re-
duce taxation Most everyone wants taxes re-
duced and every line of business is going to
be improved when taxes are reduced along
right lines We are inclined to think that the
burden of taxation should be fairly born by
the people best able to bear it, but we are not
foolish enough to want to see industry taxed
out of existence to escape the payment of
few nicl1els.
The one nuisance tax" which should be
done away WITH is the pennies being collected
on admissions to the peoples theatres" We
mean the movie houses where the great bulk
of the average people of Kenosha and other
cities go to get their amusement.
If man can walk up to scalper and pay
ten dollars to see play or fifteen dollars to
see prize fight or a football game we believe
that he is sufficiently opulent to help the gov
eminent out by paying tax on this ticket.
Taking candy from baby was never popular
with the people and it should not be necessary
for a real government. The paltry tax on the
admissions to moving pictures is nothing more
than taking candy from the babies In many
cases it is denying the children the chance to
have the little amusement that is offered to
them. 1t is harder on the children than it is
on the theatre owners We are still believer
in the theory of women and children first
and we believe that the first reduction that
should be made in taxes should be the elemina-
tion of this tax on the movies which are gen
orally patronized by the people of Amer
lean cities and villages. No ticket sold for
fifty cents or less should be subject to fed
eral tax. When the admission price gets over
this figure it is only fair to say that such
amusemets are in the luxury class and that
they should be taxed just the same as any
other luxuries.

Want $4,000 For
Research Study
NV United Pressl

Madison, Wis. An appropriation
of $4,000 is asked of congress by a
committee of the Engineering founda-
tion here.
The money is sought for a non-com-
mercial investigation into the nature
and use of paint and varnish as a
wood preservative. A good wooden
house, it is claimed, will last 100 to
200 years if we'll painted. Scientific
investigation of paint, therefore, has
an important bearing on the fast
dwindling supply of lumber for con-
struction purposes, it is pointed out
The Forest Products laboratory at
Madison is now conducting experiments
to ascertain the effect of various paints
on different types of wood and to de-
termine the best suited types of paint
for each.
In its plea for the appropriation,
the engineers committee says:
ut is the opinion of competent men
that this amount of money can be
proftably used at the Forest Products
laboratory under the direction of the
secretary of agriculture and his adj
visors. The knowledge gained would
save millions of dollars annually, con-
tribute to the prosperity of honest
paint manufacturers and improve liv-
ing conditions"

Your Health
REDUCING.

Many people who are overworked,
according to their story, are far more
often the victims of worry over their
physical condition.
Bodily poisons from bad teeth, in
fected tonsils and gastro-intestinal
trouble may be to blame. Then the
fat worry comes and one kind ON an
other of heart trouble appears.
1t is simple matter to remedy
this fat worry and improve your gem
eral health by the primary adoption
of sensible, satisfying diet with the
amount of exercise which your special
type may require.
If one can reduce the fat burden
by getting rid of useless tissue, which
loads up the carrying muscles with
undue strain, interferes with normal
respiration and drives the heart to
greatly increased labor, the solution
would be worth any effort.
You do not have to be on the dot
in this weight business. It is no dis
advantage to be 10 pounds over the
average for your class and age, from
81 to 40 After this period 10-pound
deficiency in weight rs more to your
advantage than otherwise.
The mountaineering diet is life pro-
cess. Never attempt any sudden re-
duction in weight. Rapid attempts fire.
quently cause great nervous depression
with bad efforts on both the heart and
the nervous system.
Before giving you a full dietary
program, / wish to say that if you
will carefully follow its prescribed
amount in the reduction of energy
food and take the proper exercise, no
power on earth can avert your reduc-
ton in weight.
The simple dietary program will fol-
low this article.

MARS.

Mars this summer will be closer
to the earth than for nearly CEN
fury. At that, though, it'll be 81 mill
lion miles away. But astronomers are
going to make a supreme attempt to
find out if people live on Mars and,
if so, to communicate with them. A
few months will bring this attempt
to the front pages of newspapers.
Mars may not be inhabited, but
surely the earth is not the only
heavenly body that supports intelli-
gent life. To believe otherwise re-
quires colossal egotism. Many have
it in sufficient quantity.
