portions of the winter wheat belt the

Under such circumstances the wheat
market gave way when commission
houses started to sell July on a lib

Absence of any important new ex-
port business did good deal to curb
speculative buying of wheat. during

Bond prices continued to forge

to the bonds of these companies.

into shape by current favorable
earnings and by prospects OF de-
creased dividends. The squirt in
Rock Island shares to the highest

Big Fire Loss
at Brister Barn
Hudson Sedan and Ford are Burned in
Garage Thursday Night at
Ten O'Clock.

Fire broke out in the old barn of D..
+. Brister at 355 Fremont avenue, now
used as garage, on Thursday evening,
resulting in loss of about $3.50 all
told. The blaze started in a Hudson
sedan which was in the garage, due
probably to shortening of wires, shown
by the fact that the metal hood had
been quite burned off. Fire Chief
Schwartz today estimated that there
was $500 loss on the Hudson, $3.50 on
a Ford and $3.50 on the building.
The fire was discovered by Christie
pher Newman, whose Ford car was in
the garage. As he passed by he no.
tlced, about ten minutes to ten o'clock
that there was rudy glow from the
windows and bits of fame pouring out
at the sides. When he looked in he
found the place completely in flames.
The fire department answered the call.
Mr. Brister's own car, REQ, was res
cued and there was little fire loss to
that. The building was not burned to
the ground, as the timely arrival of
the firemen saved further destruction.
The fire department answered a call
the day before at ia Bronson street,
where the Ford roadster of Homer
McNally had caught fire, due also to a
shortening of the wires. Mr.. McNally
discovered the fire an hour after he
had put the car in the garage.

Neverman Has
Good Suggestion
Training of Men on High School Stats
As Means of Providing OIL
Gals at Games, is Plan.


MGrinette, WIS., Training of
men on the stats OF high schools in
rules and other athletic matters is
suggested by P. F. Neverman, secre-
tary of the Wisconsin Interscholastic
Athletic association, as a means Of
providing officials for games.
"The question of obtaining compe-
tent officials for high school games is
often a difficult matter" Mr.. Never
man said. "Many schools find them
selves financially unable to employ APP
proved officials because of the high
fee and expen-s involved. All prin-
cipals desire. good officials, but are
compelled to keep within their means.
"The cost of officiating has been in
creasing from year to year. Only one
solution is possible for the average
high school and that is the training
for officials of the men employed in
the high schools of the state. If the
principals would encourage the attend
ance of their most competent men in
meetings where rules are studied and
questions relating to officiating dis
cussed, the board of control would
gladly arrange for number of such
meetings for each September. The
men so trained could lie used in many
of the games at a minimum cost to
the schools. A fee of SIS and expenses
should be satisfactory to these men
and should also be within the means
of all schools conducting athletics

Election Records
Must be Preserved
County Clerk Directed to Keep Old
Tally Sheets and Poll Books
No Matter How Old.

A communication was received this
morning by District Attorney Lewis
Powell from the Office of the attorney
general of the state, handing down a
ruling regarding the preserving Of old
election records in Kenosha county.
County Clerk Iva Russell had asked
for an opinion because of the fact that
many of the tally sheets and poll
books are now worthless and are much
in the way in the storeroom of the of
flee. The attorney general was asked
for an opinion as to whether or not
these very old records could be de-
stroyed.
The opinion, made by Deputy Attor-
ney General J. E. Messerschmidt, stat
ed that there was no authority for de-
stroying the records and for that rea-
son, no matter how valueless they APP
peared to be, they must be kept.
The records go back to the organ
ization of Knosha county more than
seventy-five years ago.
