Th e Spirit of K enosha High School

I

THIS brief retrospect of Kenosha High School during the past fif
teen years, one is prompted to center his thoughts primarily about the
spirit of the school. One's thoughts naturally run back to the time
when three hundred students met together in a building where numerou '
rooms were occupied by elementary classes and where, though the mingling
of a variety of ages and stature , physically and mentally, furnished opportunity for the growth of sympathy and under ' tanding, yet the condition'
were not best suited to the development of high school pirit and high chool
interests. But numbers soon increased to the point where the building was
devoted solely to high -chool classes and an institutional consciousne's soon
began to manifest it elf in loyalties to classes and organizations, and finally
in an increasing de\·otion to general school concern· and interest . Athletic
competition, debating and declamatory contests began to stir school spirit;
winning teams won more and more enthu ·iastic ·upport. Larger group,
were now going away to school, more alumni were returning to visit and
boost for the school. And old K. H . S. was beginning to find itself on
the map .
The Spy was reborn . Both i ·sue and annual were heartily supported
by the school and t'1e community. Orchestra and glee clubs came into he
ing. Public speaking was introduced into the curriculum and not only ga,·e
the studen•:s training in the art of oral expression, but created opportunity
for voicing school spirit and sentiment of school
loya lty.
The chool continued to grow in numbers, the
nu mber of teachers increa -ed, new subjects were introduced into the curriculum, standard of work

were bettered, greater recognition was' ouchsafed by schools in neighboring
nd
cities, better reports came back from those who went away to college .
pride in the school began to assert itself.
Finally, the numbers became so great that we were treading on each
other' toes in the effort to get about when the whole school was passing. It
became necessary to increase the facilities or decrease the numbers and out
of this dilemma grew the Junior High School. The poor downtrodden, unprivileged freshmen were transferred from the High School, where they
were the most ignoble and least re pected members of the group, to a new
realm where they became the lords of creation.
For a time there was relief and room to live and move and ha,'e our
being. But soon the number' had increased again to where relief must again
be had, and a olution was found in the e--tablishment of annexes, one after
another, until there were three.
By this time, the need for a new high school building had become so insi ' tent that plan were undertaken to supply the need. . ._ chool official ,
Board of Education, city officials, and the fathers and mothers of the community became gradually possessed of the splendid idea that Kenosha
should have a new high school plant; that it should be so planned that it
could be made to take care of the need· of the school for years to come, and
that it hould be one of the best built and finest plants that could be built.
High School spirit and pride and enthusiasm had
taken po 'ession of the whole city. Nothing
should be too good in the building of the temple
that wa , to hou-,e that splendid institution, the old
K. H . S., first free public high school in the west,
whose traditions had denloped under the highe t

[20]

ideals and with the continuou · hearty support of a loyal tudent body, a devoted corps of teachers, and ~l thoroughly sympathetic and willing group of
officials and citizens.
The consummation is now with u . We are still Kenosha High chool,
the same old K. H. S., but how changed and how grown and how splendid.
The ame ideals, the same spirit of loyalty and cooperation, the same pride,
the same determination to keep the old traditions and ideal still possess u ·
all, whether tudents or teachers or officials or parents. It is this spirit that
has iwpired us all, that has helped us to pull together, to build one of the
finest choob it is possible in our pre ent knowledge to build. Let us hope
and trive that this spirit which has lived o long and motivated u o splendidly may be kept alive and vigorou as long as it is in our hands to perpetuate it and hand it on to men and women of generations not yet born to
nourish the ideals and standards of educational growth and lay the foundation that will a sure the continuance of a fine citizenship and the permanence of the ever better city.

Th e Spy Annual

I

THf, fall of 1926 thl' Sixth ational \ll-.\ml'rican Contest for annu:tl, was
ni1ersit1 of \Visconsin under the dirl'ltion of thl Crntral Intu·held at the
scholastic Press Association. In this contest the l 9~6 Sp1 was not onh ratl'd as
an •\II-American annual but was also classi:d as one of the ,-\11-Aml'rican icaders of
whid1 therl' 11e1e onh nint: from si:condan schools
throughout the count;.,. .\11-.\maican honor ratings ;~re gin·n onh t<; books whid1 han: madt: tht:
most of their opportunities for production. The
fact that books from e1er1· section of the United
Statt:s \\'t'l"l' enkru! in thL: C'>ntl'st fulh dl'monstratl's thl' honors n:cein:d by the Sp1 and tlw merits
on which it reet:i1·ed them.
Besides winning an :\11-.\merican ratin!!, the
Sp1 annual was gin·n recognition in the :\rt Crafts
Guild Contest held at Chicago, where it won the
siln:r CL1p a\vankd for the greatest impron·ment
ol't:r the annual of the preceding Far. This cup
i. now in the troph} case of Krnosha High School.
This, the l 92 7 Spy, is planned much along
the s:1mc Iines as List ) car's book. The theme is a
continuance of and an enlan,~l'ment upon tlu thl'me
hl'(!Un in thl' l 926 ;111nu:1l. Thl' Bl'tter Cit\ idi:a
is usi:d throughout the book and forms the tl;emt: for tht: fraturl' SLTtion. Thl' art
work and ill~istrating was done uitiri:h h1 studult'i in the art classl's of our school.
!\1am of the drawings werl' made fron~ th(rd floor windows of tlw school and portra)
familiar sk) li1ll's and landmarks.

\Ve han· attempted, both h) word and picture, to incorporate into the 1927 Sp)
something of the spirit of progn:ss that has rharacterizt:d Kl'nosha and thl' Ku10sha
High School. \Ve hope that this spirit h:is h.td an effect upon us in thl' production of
our Annual and that 1n h:tll' bl'l'n at least p:irtialh sucn·,sful in our attl'mpt to makl'
this a higgl'r and a bettl'1 Sp) than Krnosha Hi:.d1 School has erer ha<l.

The Spanish Play
One of the outstanding: indications of the prng:n:ss of Krnosha Hig:h School was
the Spanish plnY, Los P1111talrml'.i, g:in·n last DLrl'mher. That a play g:inn entire!)
in a foreign language was receired with spirited anplau l' speaks well not only for our
Foreign Language Department, hut also for the taste and appreciation of the students.
Those who took part in the pla\' an: .1s follows: Donald HLide, Ellen Tambellini, '.\largaret Clausen, -ellie Pietrangeli, \ Villi:1m :\rlicki, \Vilma '.\frnzel,

T

HE team inaugurated the 1926 football season in an auspicious manner by vanquishing '\1ilwwkee ~orth Divi ion, a worthy opponent, 9
to 0. Jensen scored the lone touchdown, and Pacetti secured the extra
point by kicking goal. \fumble behind 'orth Divi ion' goal line resulted
in a afety worth two points.
Launching a highly effectiYe aerial attack, \Vest Division of Milwaukee defeated Kenosha 19 to 13 i 11 our second home game. J ensen assumed
the star role by returning a kick-off 95 yards through the entire \\7 est Divi
sion team. Jensen also made the other touchdown on a JO yard run. Pacetti
kicked goal for the extra point. Doehring's uncanny forward passing was
the bright pot of Milwaukee' attack.
Kenosha regained a winning stride, ubduing Madison East in a con
vincing manner, 20 to 0. This was our first Big Six Confrrence game.
Pacetti, De monie, and \ 'lachina crossed the goal line for touchdowns, with
Pacetti adding two more points with kicks after touchdowns.
History repeated itself when Kenosha and J ane ville fought to a scoreless tie. Last year's game with Janesville was also a tie, the score being 14
to I+.

In the first out of town game Kenosha out-played Beloit but failed to
show the punch when touchdowns seemed almost certain. The game was
lost l+ to 7. Pacetti accounted for Kenosha's points. Fate frowned on Errol Evans, and he was remo\ ed from the game in the second quarter with a
broken collar bone.
The second out of town game also proved disastrous to the team.
The boys journeyed to the capital only to take a 13 to 7 defeat at the hands
of Madison Central. In this game also Pacetti accounted for Keno ha's
points.
The traditional battle with Racine was called off in respect to the memory of Thor Paulsen, former R.H. S. football captain, who died on the eve
of the game.

In a post-sea on game on Thanksgiving Day Kenosha invaded LaCrosse but lost 19 to 7 on a snow and ice crusted field. In this game Jensen
intercepted a pass and returned it 90 yards for a touchdown. Pacetti kicked
goal.
On October 16, an open date, the team attended the l\'orthwesternIndiana game at Evanston as a guest of the High School r\.thletic Association.

The Players
To CAPTAI JoHNKY Dr c Ks, sturdy half-back, Kenosha High is great
ly indebted for his brilliant plaring and excellent leadership. Captain Dicks
had the knack of instilling fight into his men. He was known for his clean
sport manship and figured prominently in Big Six circles as a splendid defen ive man. Johnny was awarded the merican Legion Trophy.
CAPTAI -ELECT Lours J ENSFN, one of the mo t versatile athletes in
the conference, wa noted for his spectacular open-field running. Injuries
kept "Dane" out much of the season, but when able to play, he proved himself a valuable a set to the team. That his teammates honored him with the
captaincy of the 1927 team i a tribute to his leadership qualities and playing
ability.
'Er.Lo PACETTI, triple threat full back, wa our mo t consi tent
ground-gainer and one of our best defensive men. Calm, deliberate, and
mode t, an ideal type of athlete, he could be depended upon to do his be t in
every game. In all probability ' ello will be one of the select few that will
posses nine of the coveted K's.
CHARLES "Ctn.: cK" ]\SKWHICH, just a sophomore, proved that he was
of first team caliber by assuming the position of quarter-back vacated by
Evans. "Chuck" has two more promising year of athletic compet1t1on.
He not only takes active part in football, but also participates in basketball
and track.
ERROL "BROW!\IE" EvA:-.s began the season as regular quarterback, but
he wa forced out in the \Vest Division game with a broken collarbone. Resuming play one month later, he met with the same unfortunate injury.
Jraduation bar "Brownie" from next year's team. Besides being a football
man F.vans is an experienced track man, running both low and high hurdles.

·w1u.JA'Yt ccB1n" FvNCK played his third year at left end. Bill's experience and size greatly fortified the left side of the line throughout the
season. Cool-headed, square, and capable, he served as a steadying influence to the team.

LEWIS GREFl\ 1 all conference tackle

for two seasons, was without a
doubt the best punter in the conference. Throughout the season he averaged forty-five yards on his punts. He could be depended upon, also, to
carry and pass the ball when called upon.
ALEX PoHIZEK, 190 pounds of fight, charged at the opposing team
from the position of left guard. He was an aggressi\e player, and with last
year's experience he was one of the outstanding players in the line. His loss
to next year's team will be keenly felt.

CLAYTOt-- ccFxr" BrnDLE held his place at the center of the line. Formerly a guard, he was developed into a reliable center by Coach McCaw
when that position became vacant.
Toxv BREDEK entered Kenosha High from Beloit in the fall of 1926.
His consistent defensive work in all the games as right guard made him a
\aluablc man in the line. Tony looms as a mainstay for next year's line.

AucusT ((GooDrn" Bo", formidable right tackle, was a bulwark of
strength in the right side of the line. This was Eon's first year of regular
competition, but he performed in a manner that distinguished him a a
player of marked ability. Bon is one of this year's graduates.

]oE VLACHINA, playing his last year, showed unusual ability in executing all the requirements of a wing man. His ability to snare long passe
made him a consi tent yardage-gainer.

precision that he showed in all games made him a forward of undeniable class. He finished as the indi\'idual scoring champion of the Hix Six Conference

the team, he, nevertheless, was an integral part of all
plays. \Vhile he was guarding the basket, the percentage of the opponents always took a big slump.

:\t. SHIPLEY was the floor guard. He ath·anced
the ball with a fast, fine dribble, and his scoring efforts enabled the team to add scn·ral games to the
\\in side of the ledger. He could n:gister shots in a
beautiful manner from beyond the foul line. This
ma rktd Shi ple) 's first year of basketball competition
hut he withstood the test like a Yeteran. He was cool
in all games and he handled himself well all season.
Shiple) proved to be a formidable running mate with
Captain JuN:n. He will play the first half of next
year's schedule but will be graduati:d in Februar).
"C11 UL K" _f,\sK w111c11, sophomore and ) oungest
pla) er on the team, developed into a most colorful
player. He was given an opportunit} to earn a place
on the regular team when Kolar was graduated in
February, and he did not hesitate to seize the chance
to make good. 1\ltho this was his first year of competition, he quick!) adapted himsdf to the coaching of
"Bud" '.\1cCaw. Jaskwhich was fleet afoot, a cool
thinker, an accurate shot, and handled the ball with
facility. He and Beaupre should make an invincible
combination next season.

KNL'DSE., alternating at center and forward,
was probabl} one of the best basht tossers ever seen
on our floor. He is tall and rangy and uses these
qualities to a good advantage.

In SMITH, we had a small, sturd) forward. He

K

E TOSH\. has distinguished itself in the first Better Cities Contest

in \Visconsin. It is not unknown, no doubt, that Kenosha won the
contest, taking seven first places out of ten awarded, a second, a
third, and an eighth. Our city was first in Public dministration, City Plan
ning, Libraries, Industr}, Recreation, I kalth, and Social \Velfarc, second
in Religion, third in Education, and eighth in Township and City Relations.
In the following pages, each division is taken up separately in greater
detail, so that since the original reports of the judges are not widely known
to the general public, readers may gain a more 'ivid conception of Kenosha's
outstanding advantage'. The report begin· with a short history of Kenosha.
Kenosha County was first settled in 183 0, when about fi ftecn families
arrived during the summer. The second printing pres , to be set up in \Visconsin was brought to the settlement by Re\ercnd Jason Lathrop. In 1850
the village of Southport was incorporated into the City of Kenosha, with
3,437 inhabitants. Col. Frank was the first mayor. The city has ince adYanced steadily to its present place of distinction.

Public Administration
Municipal government touches intimately every man, woman, and
child in any community. In a real sense, therefore, the act of such a go\ernment are of personal concern to all. \Vhether or not a city is a good
place in which to live depends, to a large extent on how the city administration conducts the affairs of government.
In \pril, 1922, Kenosha a , a municipality adopted the council-manager form of government and under that method has made great and lasting
progres . The underlying reason for Kenosha's superiority in many field'
is her having, as the department heads, trained men of known ability, individually expen ive, but on the whole very economical.
Another reason is the adoption of standard modern ystem of administration of a highly efficient nature. All the department, are under trained
supervision; all activities are carefully planned in advance and carried out
according to plan.

THE , P'i

FOR

I 927

The municipal buildings are spacious, well-arranged, and efficiently
managed. Ken osha's water is supplied by a municipally owned wa,er worb,
employing the most efficient means of filtering, settling, and treatment to
insure pure, safe drinking water. The pumps are
adequate for the best fire protection.
The :n erage fire loss during four years has hcen
considerabl~ less than $1.5 0 per capita.
Krnosha'5
fire department is indeed well equipped.
The police department is well paid. A school of
instruction is maintained in which patrolmen arc instructed in police methods, law and ordinances, and
the conduct and manner of a pol ice officer. There
are, at the present time, two p\llice women on the de
partment.
In the engineering department a perfect score was made in the Better
Citic,, Contest, and there is little left to be desired.
The report ubmitted in the Better Citie ' Contest on Public .\dministration according to the judge's report, coupled with the exhausti\ e and
orderly pre entation of exhibits, constitutes a new chapter in community
analysis.

City Plmming
The Kenosha City Planning Commission is largely responsible for the
city's supremacy. Thi commission holds regular meetings, and has adopt
ed a city- plan which it has al read)- begun to carry out to considerable extent.
In order that the plan might be such that Kenosha will not outgrow it in
the near future, an expert city planner, Harland Barth olomew, of St. Louis,
\1issouri, was employed.
\ zoning plan has been adopted to re trict the
growth of the city and to pre\ ent industrial and resi
dential development from growing without regard
to the future of the city as a whole. The zoning
regulations may have to be revised as the population
increa 'es, but they accomplish much in creating better
residential districts and confining industry and com
merce to business center'.
The plan provide' for adequate street space,
traffic regulations, the prevention of many accidents,
and the 'ystematic recording of accidents. More
than one-half of the main street' are now sixty six
feet wide or wider. Hou ing condition are generally good. The Building
and Loan A 'Sociation has afforded opportunity for the building of better
homes and incidentally, the ownership of more homes by tho e who li' e in

them. The civic center is a great project to prrn idc a real center around
which the principal public buildings arc to be grouped and business is to be
carried on. \!though there may be other commercial centers to serve the
out-lying district · more comcnicntly, thi · larger one
will be the nucleus of the entire city.
In parks Kenosha was found to be lacking, but
the park conditions are steadily improving. Those
which \Ve han arc designed to serve the public quite
efficiently.
Tourists are imitcd to enjoy the tourist park on
·w ashington Island near the lake. This park is serviced with police protection, lighting facilities, and
benches. Signboard service and highway directions are
alo.;o supplied.
The judges found that Kenosha ha · none too
many trees to beautify the city, but said that Keno ·ha
is to be congratulated upon having a trained forester at the head of the park
department. There is encouragement of good tree planting in new subdi' ision . Home grounds are adequately pro\ ided with lawns, shrubs, trees,
and flowers.

Libraries
Gilbert :YI. Simmons Library is one of the most beautiful library
structures in the state of \\Tisconsin. It is situated in the center of a large
park and is one block from the business dio.;trict. The well kept spaciou ·
grounds with its trees, shrub· and flower also add to the attractiveness of
the building. It is the educational center and the pride of the entire community. The annual income of one mill of the assessed valuation of property has so far been adequate
to carry on the work of the 1ibrary.
The library had the honor of recci\ ing first
place in the \Visconsin Better Citic Cnntest, winning
I 0 points more than the required one thousand. The
score gave credit for all library sen ice rendered in
the city. A few of the outstanding library activities
which brought a favorable decision arc gi,·en here.
The extcnsi' e branch S} stem distributes books
o\·er the entire city, bringing books within reach of
C\'eryone . There are four separate branch building ·.
One is a large community branch in the we ·tern part
of the city, and three are small school and community branchc on the
grounds of the junior high schools. Another ~chool library h:1~ h en e, 'ab
lishcd in the fourth junior high :chool. J\ll of thc,e fi, e branch librar.<:.

THE SPY

are in charge of trained and experienced librarians, giving the best service
possible to the students and the people of the surrounding communities.
Class room libraries arc also sent to all parochial and public schools
except when the schools arc in the immediate vicinity of one of the library
centers. Books are sent to the Senior High chool library to supplement its
collection of books, as well as to both vocational schools.
Instruction in the use of a library is given each year by the librarian to
every 7th grade pupil in the city. , tory Hours and Reading Clubs are
some of the activities fostered during the year. The library also works
with the evening school ' bringing the foreigners who are studying English
in closer contact with the resources of the library that arc theirs for the ask
ing. The service to the schools has brought the libraries and school ' closely
together, thus working as one large educational unit.
The newspapers and library book lists have been most effective in advertising the library, as have also window displays, group displays of books,
etc., in the branches. l ni' crsity E"Xtcnsion courses arc conducted in the
library, and various clubs and debate teams hold meetings there, making it
a real community center.
The library circulated 3 70,817 books last year to the people of the
city and there arc 59,84-3 books on the shelves for their use.

J71d ustric s
It i recognized that economic conditions have a profound effect on the
life of an indi,·idual and of a community. To maintain a decent standard
of living, there must be an opportunity for work that is safe and healthful,
and which lea\·es the worker time for recreation. The work must be regular, and there must be a chance for the worker to earn a fair wage.
Of 34-+ men picked at random in Kenosha factories, it was found that
31+ worked regularly, and thirty worked intermittently. \minimum bud
get for families of fi,·e was set at $1,686.11 annually. Of these same 34--1men, 26-1- were earning more than $1,686.11 per year, and 80 were earning
less. From this result, it is assumed that Kenosha is furnishing adequate
means for the purchase of the standard \merican living.

THE SPY

FOR

1927

In the five largest factories in Kenosha, health and safety conditions
were above reproach. The conditions were fully according to Jaw and often exceeded the minimum requirements. All of the plants were found to
have nurses, and a few had completely equipped hospitals.
The factories also sponsor athletic contests of all kinds between the
different departments of each plant. These factories each with its athletic
field, band, clubs, and newspaper, provide a splendid recreational opportunity for their employees.
Kenosha has developed the Employees' Benefit \ssociation with group
insurance and the Community Chest.

In regard to the number of working hours of 1O,+71 men, it was found
that only 1,255 were working sixty hours a week. Of 1,315 women, it was
found that nearly all of them worked under fifty hours a week. All of the
factories of Kenosha arc shut down on Saturday afternoons throughout the
entire year.
Kenosha furnishes splendid facilities for the shipping of manufactured
goods. Several of the factories have railroad spur-tracks running direct]}
to their shipping yards. Two of the factories are located on the Kenosha
Harbor, which affords splendid shipping facilities for them. The harbor
has been improved yearly, and now it is large enough for all lake steamers.
The principal manufactures of Kenosha arc: beds and metal furniture,
brass bed machinery, tables, automobiles, search Jights, fire trucks, auto
trucks, wire rope, prings, brass and copper ·heeting, tubing and wire, brass
novelties, machinery, tools, hosiery, underwear, sweater novelties, and bakery products.

Rccrcatirm
The recreation facilities of the City of Kenosha amply provide a
wholesome medium through which those wishing to take part may obtain
enjoyment in their leisure hours.
Recreation may be diYided into fi,·e sections: commercial, priYate, intitutional, public, and miscellaneous. They are all de' eloped to a high

degree and it may be said that Kenosha has one uf the finest recreation systems of any city of its size in the country.
There are acti' ities carried on in all lines of sports, entertainment, and
social functions throughout the entire year. Outdoor activities, indoor
sports, musicals, high clas · entertainments, all find a place in the city of
Kenosha.
Commercial recreation,-usual Ir pn)\ ided for the people at a nominal
sum-includes Kenosha's baseball team supported by industries in the city,
dance halls, pool halls, theaters, and bowling alleys.
Private recreation is manifest among the older people of the city.
vlany private card parties and social gatherings are gi\'en in the pri\ ate
homes of the citizens of Kenosha. Such parties or gatherings are a fi1~e
method of binding friendships.
Institutional recreation is back in all of the factories and many clubs of
this city. The men play on the department teams, and there is much spirited competition. There are baseball leagues and bowJing leagues in mo ·t of
the Kenosha institution and in several of the leading cl uhs and lodges.
Public recreation is boosted by the city recreation department and park
board. .\.t the present time there are twenty one parks in the city of Kenosha. The greater number of these parks ha\e playgrounds facilities and
competent supervisors for both boys and girls. The public has the use of
public school gymnasiums, room for Parent Teachers Association meetings, and other places for activities of public interest.
Under Miscellaneous Recreation come the finer arts. In some centers
drama is being developed and play ' given . An appreciation for music is
being shown by variou clubs.

Health and Plzysical Development
I~eal health work began in Kenosha in the year 1912, when an ordinance creating a Department of Health was passed by the City Council.
Outside of .Milwaukee, Kenosha wa ' the second city in \Visconsin to employ
a full time Health Commissioner.
The first Health Commissioner was Dr. John
J. .McShane, who is at present chief of the Bureau
of Epidemiology with the Illinois Board of
Heal th. In 1916 Dr.
cShane accepted a position in \.kron, Ohio, and was succeeded by Dr. H.
L. \ Yright, who in turn was succeeded by the present Director of Health, Dr. G. Windesheim . Dr.
\ Yindeshei m has held this office since Aug. 1, 1918.
In the Heal th Department today the staff consists of the Director of Health, a whole time school physician, a dairy and meat inspector, one
statistician and chief clerk, one assistant clerk, a director of the laboratory,

FOR

I 927

one laboratory assistant, five school nur-es, one infant welfare nurse, and
one tuberculosis nurse.
The death rate i , about 7.3 for every one thousand inhabitant or, for
the year of 1924, 356.
The official funds available for strictly health purposes are about $1. 7 5
per capita.
The drinking water is furni ' hed by a Municipal \Vater Plant, and is
primarily obtained from Lake Michigan. To insure thorough purification,
this water is treated by precipitation, filtration, and chlorination . The intake pipe entrance is +,700 feet from the shore line, almost one mile from
the beach . The average daily consumption of water is six million gallons.
Kenosha has the distinction of being the second \Visconsin city, Milwaukee having been the first, to establish an open air school. This school is
open for eleven months every year, and has a net enrollment of 5 0 pupils.

Social vf elfare
Social work is one of the greatest interest ' of the community. It includes work with the diseased, the feeble, dependents, children, delinquent ,
and criminals. The program is one of prevention and formation rather
than of correction and reformation. Cau cs of undesirable conditions arc
searched out and remedied as far a possible.
In family social work, Kenosha has exccptionallr well-trained case
workers. In addition, there are many organizations working with the Kenosha Service League such as the Safration Army, the American Legion,
the \Nomen's Guild of St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, and the Evangelical Lutheran Friedens Church.
The care of the mentally defective and mentally diseased i adequately
carried on by a well-equipped clinic, an alienist, a psychologist, and social
workers on full time. There are seven public health nur es doing general
work, and two specialized nurses in infant welfare work, be ides nur es
employed at factories and by insurance companies. These are well-trained
nur es, but they are not competent to supervise mental case . Hmve,,er, a
good start has been made in this direction, upon
which Kenosha is to be congratulated. The Thrift
Shop has turned in $1800 annually to this cause .

Religion
Religion is of vital interest to e''ery boy, girl,
man, and woman in the community. Therefore it
is of great importance in any community. The
organized expre sion of religion is the church, of which various phases ha\ e
been worked out. There is the church plant, including the buil iing an i
service system, church finances, including the entire church budget, lea kr-

THE SPY

ship, and the Sunday schools. The attempt was made to measure the opportunities afforded by communities for participati on in religion. No effort was
made to measure the community's spirituality nor the degree of devotion.
Kenosha has an abundance of church buildings.
l\lost of them, howe\ er, show more attention to
~
aesthetic features than to sen ice. There is at least
one church within a mile radius of any point in the
city, but they are thickest in the southwest quarter.
The church grounds are generally well prn,·ided
with tree and grass.
The churches that reported showed an average budget expenditure of
$8, 762.00, or $1.5+ per capita.
There is a comparatively ample supply of leaders in religious training
who have training to the degree of seminary or college work. ,\.n excellent
condition exists in regard to the attendance of young people in the churches.
The church is by far the most powerful organization which can secure the
best possible group of opportunities for citizens. It strengthens the foundations of the community, which are industry that pay; a living wage, education that trains one for life, and healthful conditions.

Education
Education, it will doubtless be agreed, is the community's most important concern. CiYic ·ucce s i · reflected in a city's educational prO\ isions; and
education is not a process confined to a few specified years of life, hut extends in it scope from the cradle to the grave.
In 192-t the net enrollment in the schools of Kenosha was 10,969 out
of 12,26-t according to the school census, or a percentage of 8 9.
In the elementary schools the per pupi 1 instruction cost for one year is
$69.25; in high school, $100.56.
From figures obtained from 1920 census statistics it was found that
95. l '~ of the city population of Kenosha could read and write.
Kenosha is doing excellent \Vork in behalf of
retarded and mentally Llefective children. For
physically handicapped children two hours of instruction a week are given to each of 25 shut-in
children, a total of 50 hours a week, or the full
time of 1 2-3 teachers.
Kenosha is fortunate in ha\ ing two l Tniversity Extension classes devoted to social problems,
:ind many ·tudents are taking correspondence courses of one kind or another.
The example which the Kenosha Parent Teachers \ssociation set for
th<.: state brings commendations from every where. These organizations are

THE SPY

FOR

r 927
~~~~~~~--1

founded in e\·ery school to promote cooperation between the home and
.chool. 1\lthough Kenosha's educational work has been excellent and satisfactory in many phases, it is by no means perfect, and in education we
scored third. The authorities of the schools are
better equipped than anyom: else to determine
upon a plan of action that will bring us to the
\·cry top, and since our defects and short coming ·
ha\ e bt:t:n pointed out to us tht:se men are doing
all within their po\Ver and means to make Ke
nosha a by word and example to the educational
world of today and tomorrow.

Trn.v'll a11d Rural Relatiom
Kt:nosha, because it is essentially a manufacturing town, has a 'cry
weak relationship with outlying rural districts. The score for this section
of the contest was figured primaril} 011 the amount of farmer trade in the
city. Because of the number of fair sized rural villages, most all of which
ha\ e well equipped stores in their limits, the farmer trade is not gn:at in
Kenosha.

\V c can hope, howe\ 'er, for an increasing feeling of cooperation be
tween farm and city to the benefit of both.

Conclusion
In view of the fact that it is the dut} of e\ cry municipality to promote
the health, we] fare, and happiness of its people, and to pro\ ide a means of
accomplishing future growth and expansion dticientl, in an effort to protect
and improve property values, the \'arious departments of the city have already done much toward
this goal in accordance with the city plan and with
much thought of future de' elopment. The city's
growth in the last two decades has warranted the
wide margin allowed for future ac.'h'ancement and
made manifest the real need of a comprehensiYe
plan to guide it. \Yith pride in Kenosha's victory
in the Better Cities Contest, and with great confidence in the bright prospects
for our city's future, we ha,·e endean>red to present to the public the most
important facts from the repons of the contest judges.

It was kind of friendly and comfortable, thou~h; wasn't it'.

but they furnished ample \·entilation for the chemistrr room. Of course those corridor were slightly congested at noon when everyone was in a hu1T) to get home. ,\nd

I always likctl the library. It seemed so restful and quiet after the commotion
and bustle in the class rooms. .\ml it seemed so idealistic and imaginative a place, a
room where one might sit and dream of the future and its castles in the air. I often
thought of life when school days were past, and many a dream ha\·e I had in that

As I drifted along in this pleasant dream, I was brought uddenl} to earth b)

Finallr the stage is bared to view. Great is the applause and many the laughs

their antics; his face becomes dreamy as he watches the colorful marriage rites; and his foot taps the time of the merry,

The Pet I Liked Best
Tow, once upon a time, I had an amhition to hecome the keeper of a mL·nag-crie;
o, towards that end, I collected all the animals Ill\ parents would allow me to. keep.
At one time I had a garter snake, a toad, fourteen grasshoppers, a white mouse, and
a cat in the house, most of them in glass jars corcrcd with paper. i\t the same timl',
in our shed, I was feeding two <logs; and another cat in the hack yard, when no one
was around, was n:cei1 ing nrious scraps from me at odd times.
But the pct I liked best was the white mouse. It was all white except for the
tip of its tail, which was jct black for ahout an inch. It had a darling little white
and pink nose, and pinkish eyes that blinked at ever~ thing. Its teL'th were pearls
except for their shape, but for all that, they were 1cq capahle. I ha1T had many
rnluahle thin gs lose their ralue as a result of those teeth. Once I found the scr:ips
of a dollar hill in the nest he was building in an old shoe of mine. Similar!)·, other
things had disappea red, and those that were small wne charged to the account of
my white mouse. Up to the time of his death he had run up a hill of about ten dollars, which is a fair!) l:irge amount for one little white mouse.
My pct had a sunny disp:isition, and was always ready to play. He would run
up my slel'\'e, or up my pants leg, or hide in 1111 pocket whether I wanted to play
hidc-and--,eck or not. He was always read) to track ink O\er th<: letters I was \Hiting, or to bother me when I was trying to study. I was nry studious in those days,
and, as you will obs<.:ne, I ha1T never changed in that respect.
Actually, though you may not bclie1'<.: it, my mouse was the cle1crest animal I
had erer seen. He could add to as high as fi fo:l'l1 by thumping with his tail on the
tablecloth, and could multipl)· by two up to as high as twcnt). I taught him to stand
on his hind legs, on his front legs, and on his head, and almost trained him so that he
could stand on the tip of his tail. He could pla) dead, jump through a hoop, and do
any of the tricks that a clever dog can do. He even learned how to frighten the cat
by imitating the bark of a dog. But although he was clever, he nen:r learned how
to manage the canaq. The canary clid not cn:n show a sign of fear, and it was
through this fearlessnc'is that I lost my menagerie. I will tell you how it came about.
One da) m\ mouse jumped up onto the canary's cage
and tried to frighten it by mewing like a cat. The cat
was attracted, and stood just under the cage with her mouth
wide open in amazemrnt. The canary, to show its feeling,
pecked at the mouse. The mou e jumped back hurriedly
to escape this attack and fell into the mouth of the cat, sticking in the throat of that amazed creature. \Vith a gurgle,
the cat jumped out of the window, knocking down the jars
containing m) sn:ikc and grasshoppers, and choked to death
on the grass. One bottle landed on my pct toad and crushed
it to death; the other broke and let m) grasshoppers l0<be. The snake dil'd of fright .
The canary, overcome with remorse, fell into a fit of h)sterics, from which it never
recovered.
The next day I buried the whole lot of them under the rose hush in the back
yard. I wa heart-broken. Th e work of my lifetime had disappeared at on<: peck
from the bill of a canaq. :V1) menag<.:nc was buried under thl' ros<.: bush. :V1)

Once on a da\ there dwelt a maid,
Oh weep, ~h weep, my lady fair;

Alone, alone, she walked at night,
Oh weep, oh weep, m) lady fair;
And put her nails into her flesh.
\Vhere is she now? I do not dare!
Let she forth a piercing .brick.
Oh weep, oh weep, my lady fair .
