A mattress king rose in Kenosha Simmons created mattresses for the mass markets

Nuts for noodles

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

Over the years many companies began in Kenosha and built businesses from startup to a major corporation headquartered in the area. One of these homegrown Kenosha businesses was started by Zalmon G. Simmons. Simmons was a manufacturer who produced wooden telegraph insulators and cheese boxes but he had plans to revolutionize the way Americans sleep. In the 1700s beds were made of timber with rope strung between the boards making a foundation for the mattress. The mattress, unlike the mattresses of today, consisted of fabric coverings usually filled with straw. The rope foundations tended to stretch over time requiring the beds to be tightened with a bed key. But sagging was not the only problem with beds.

lowed to dry, but not completely, before the bed was restrung. By restringing when still damp the ropes would tighten even more giving the bed a firm frame. The mattresses were often replaced with new “ticking,” the cover for the straw padding. The dried, clumpy old straw would be exchanged for fresh clean straw. A mattress pioneer Zalmon G. Simmons made the

Kenosha County Youth as Resources announces grants Kenosha County Youth As Resources is a grant-giving program that helps youth groups in Kenosha County to plan and implement meaningful community service and service-learning projects. YAR has awarded its latest four grants to groups in the community: • $500 has been awarded for the Gazebo That Guides project, in which youths will build a gazebo at the ELCA Outreach Center. The youths want to create the gazebo because the less fortunate of Kenosha don’t have an enclosed structure to think, pray and reflect. • $400 has been awarded for the YAR Hope Gardens project. More than a dozen youths from the Salem United Methodist Church will establish an enriched raisedbed garden on church land to feed needy families; vegetables will be donated to the Trevor Sharing Center. • $380 has been awarded for the KIND Kids project. More than 20 youths from the Roosevelt Elementary Youth Power will provide activity care bags for children and adults who are undergoing medical treatment. They will also help sort/pack food for those who go to the Shalom Center food pantry. • $300 has been awarded for Junior Optimist Club Senior Visits. A group of 10 to 15 students, from Kenosha Area Junior Optimist Club at Randall School, will coordinate with the Senior Center to arrange bingo/game days where the group will visit, provide prizes and refreshments. They plan to do this three times a year, to make the seniors feel happy and remembered.

Paddock Lake has plan for Emerald Ash borer Village is first in state to provide aid for residents

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

The Village of Paddock Lake has implemented a cost-sharing program to aid residents to get rid of trees infested with the emerald ash borer. The Ash Tree Removal Assistance program is funded with monies that were unspent and carried over from general and reserve funds from previous years. In several weeks, information about the borer and the fund program applications will be available at the village hall, 6969 236th Ave., Paddock Lake. In about a month, the application and information regarding the insect will be available on the village website, paddocklake.net. “Paddock Lake is the only municipality in the state to provide such aid,” said Village Administrator Tim Popanda, “and it’s because of the forward thinking board.” A 2007 tree inventory, taken when the village became aware of the emerald ash borer threat, found 174 ash trees within road right of ways and park lands. There are nearly 1,400 ash trees on private property, owned by residents. “The village has been putting money aside since 2013 when village staff confirmed the presence of EAB in the village,” Popanda said. “So money is available to pay for the village to remove trees on village property. We will also be

able to help residents defray 50 percent of the cost of removing two trees that are dead, dying or infested.” The village’s maximum share for each single-family residence is $1,000. The compensation would occur after the resident has paid the bill for the tree removal. Paddock Lake was declared a “Tree City” in 1998 and the board wishes to maintain the quality and beauty that large numbers of trees bring to the village. The village brochure, “Emerald Ash Borer, Resident Guide,” includes instructions on re-greening Paddock Lake after the insect infestation. It encourages the planting of native trees with native seed sources to ensure that the trees have the right characteristics and genetics to cope with local weather patterns. The brochure also identifies ash trees and just what the borer-infested trees would look like. The Village Tree Commission, an advisory body to the village board, will administer the assistance funds. The Village Tree Commission encourages a planned and orderly approach to the management of the village urban forest, which includes all the trees within the village. It also reviews, evaluates and makes recommendations to the Village Board on proposals, requests, policies and management.

Prior to the development of innerspring mattresses, beds were supported by ropes attached to the bed frame. A mattress of straw was placed on top of the ropes. The ropes stretched and had to be tightened regularly. SUBMITTED PHOTO Hi-Liter

leap from cheese boxes to bedding after he was given a patent for a woven wire bedspring in payment for a debt. Simmons then began to mass-produce woven wire mattresses in 1876. His was the first company to do so. He was so successful that by 1889 Simmons introduced spiral coil springs into mattresses and was able to reduce the cost for consumers. At that time the cost of a mattress made by Simmons was $12. With advanced methods of production the cost dropped to 95 cents per mattress. Originally incorporated as the Northwestern Wire Mattress Company in 1884, the company changed its name to the Simmons Manufacturing Company in 1889. The company continued to grow and was thought to be the largest company of its kind in the world by 1891. With the death of Zalmon G. Simmons in 1910, the business continued to thrive under the leadership of his son, Zalmon Simmons, Jr. The second generation Simmons increased advertising from the Midwest area to a national campaign that included a double-page ad in the Saturday Evening Post, one of the most popular magazines of the time.

Company expands Growth for the company continued and by 1919 additional manufacturing plants were acquired in California, New Jersey, Washington state, Georgia and Canada. Realizing the difficulty retailers had storing inventory of mattresses, Simmons deSUBMITTED PHOTO Hi-Liter veloped a new way of doing business. The Simmons began an aggressive advertising campaign in magazines, such as The retail stores would stock samples of all the Saturday Evening Post, using celebrities like Maureen O’Hara to endorse their prod- mattresses for customers to view and test ucts. them. The customers would then order the

mattress of their choice from the retailer and it would be shipped from the Simmons Warehouse directly to the customer. The customer could expect to receive it within 24 hours. Simmons moved his headquarters from Kenosha to New York City in 1923. To increase his advertising potential, he engaged famous people such as Eleanor Roosevelt, Henry Ford, H.G. Wells and others to promote the brand by appearing in advertising articles. The Beautyrest mattress was introduced in 1925. It used pocketed coils, that is coils wrapped in fabric sleeves. This type of coil had previously been available only in very high-priced luxury mattresses, far out of reach of the average citizen. The Beautyrest sold for $39.50 about four times the price of a mattress with the standard metal wires. Simmons also pioneered the Hide-ABed. This was a sofa that could be opened up into a bed. While the early ones were not comfortable as they are today they quickly became one of the company’s best-known products. Like many patriotic American companies, Simmons joined the war effort during the World War II, turning its manufacturing plants into factories that produced cots, parachutes, bazooka rockets and other items needed by the military. After the war they returned to producing mattresses. Prior to 1958, the double bed was the largest mattress manufactured. Studies done by the company’s research department on sleep patterns resulted in the introduction of the queen and king size beds. Americans largely have Zalmon Simmons and his son for the comfortable rest most experience today.

Volunteers help woman with breast cancer, homeless man This week I would like to once again highlight the volunteer efforts behind the scenes at The Time Is Now to Help.

• Time is now

Since this assistance, the homeless man is now able to afford monthly rent in a small apartment. We provided him with first month’s rent and security deposit to help him even further in his efforts to live safe, secure and independently. God bless our volunteers who were part of this assistance. If it were not for our volunteers, this man and his dog would still be wandering the cold streets alone and forgotten. There are so many ways The Time Is Now to Helps volunteers change the lives of the poverty stricken in our communities. They drive the sick, elderly and handicapped to doctor’s appointments, therapies and treatments. They deliver food to the home bound. They pick up and drop off cars for service. They also assess emergency situations. For so many years, I did all the tasks of The Time is Now to Help myself. I did not reach out to others and tell them about the charity work I founded. Now so many more of our fellow Americans are brought our

life-changing assistance thanks to our caring and sharing volunteers. I am so grateful for the changes they have brought to our organization and the caring and sharing heart they give to our recipients. Please remember every penny you donate at this time will be matched by the Barnabas $55,000 matching grant. This is a wonderful gift to help those in desperate need, especially during the harsh winter months. The children, the handicapped, the elderly, those that cannot fend for themselves, those living in desperate need will be crying happy tears of relief thanks to all of you and The Time Is Now to Help working together to provide poverty relief to those most in need in our communities. Thank you and God bless you.

work. The landlord agreed to let her remain in the apartment and even reduced the overdue amount to help this woman. After the help given by these volunteers, and several others joined in as well, the woman was able to complete her cancer treatments without the stress of a pending eviction and food insecurity. The volunteers took turns dropping off food and driving her to several doctors’ appointments. Another volunteer cleaned up her apartment and did her laundry when she did not have the energy. How wonderful are our volunteers? We think they are outstanding and so does this woman who is doing well with fighting her cancer. She is not homeless or hungry thanks to all of you. The woman kept professing to the volunteers that due to The Time Is Now to Help’s assistance we together have removed her stress of becoming homeless, allowing her to concentrate on her healing. The volunteers reported the woman’s energy level and positive outlook had greatly improved ever since we provided our caring assistance. I received a phone call from one of our volunteers concerned about a homeless man and his dog. I was still out of town, so I asked one of our male volunteers to check on the situation. The volunteer called me back several hours later after he finally located the man. The volunteer handed the homeless man one of The Time Is Now to Help’s business cards and told him about our mission of removing the pains of poverty. The homeless man asked the volunteer some questions about our organization. The volunteer asked if there was any way we could be of help. The volunteer told me how the man began to cry telling him how he had not been able to find a job after the closure of the business where he had worked for more than 20 years. His unemployment had run out as he told him how no one wanted to hire a man who was 60 years old. He was too young for Social Security and too old for most businesses to want to invest time in training. The man had some health problems that made his employability even harder. The first thing our volunteers did was make sure he got to a warm, clean motel that would accept his dog. They then provided several clean sets of clothing, toiletries and some hot food. These were all shopped for and delivered by our volunteers. After some further assessment, confirming his previous employment and job history, one of our volunteers even knew of a job that he would be qualified for. The homeless man went from cold, hungry and unemployed to knowing that someone actually cared about him and his dog. Our volunteers did not avert their eyes and look the other way, they represented The Time Is Now to Help in a way we all should be proud of, with a heart for caring and sharing for our fellow creations.

Henry Wallis. A tidbit Hertzberg learned a few Wright connection weeks ago – by perusing Pittsfield, Henry H. Wallis was a Chicago Ill., newspapers from the 1870s man who married a Delavan woman, at the library there – is that after EDITOR

Minnie Shulz, Hertzberg said. He operated a hardware business in Chicago but in 1887 opened a real estate office in Chicago to sell property on the south shore of Delavan Lake in his wife’s hometown. “To a large extent, it you were going to buy property on the south shore, you bought it from Henry H. Wallis,” Hertzberg said. Wallis’ clients were businessmen like Jones looking for a getaway from Chicago. “They were among the summer cottage clients,” Hertzberg said. “These so-called cottages are large enough to be homes in and of themselves.” Wallis, he said, was friends with Frank Lloyd Wright and is the probable connection to the Wrightdesigned structures on Delavan Lake. Wright designs Wright designed five homes on Delavan Lake – all on South Shore Drive – between 1900 and 1905. “I think it’s incredibly unique to have five houses on a lake designed by a world-renowned architect,” said Penwern owner Sue Major, of Rancho Santa Fe, Calif., near San Diego. “It still amazes me how few people in the area know that.” Major said she and her husband, John Major, also were unaware of the Wright-designed houses during their

search for a summer home in the area when they were living in Barrington Hills, Ill. Wright also designed the original Delavan Lake Yacht Club in 1904, but the building was demolished in 1916, Hertzberg said. Another home on South Shore Drive called the Wallis Gate House has a plaque on it that says Wright remodeled it, but Hertzberg has found no documentation of that. Myths In his research, Hertzberg is taking care not to build on previously reported inaccuracies. It has been written that Wallis, who also had a home at 3301 South Shore Drive, never lived in his Wright house because of the death of his only child. In fact, Wallis’ daughter was born in 1903 and died in 1927, according to an article by Hertzberg. Hertzberg is also trying to track down the meaning of the name Penwern as Wright intended it. “It has been written that it’s Gaelic for great house,” Hertzberg said. However, the word is either Welsh or Cornish and does not mean “great house,” he said. One of the meanings for the word is the head of a grove of alder trees, which might have been native to the area. Another possible tie is Wright’s heritage. Wright’s mother was Welsh,

Wright homes on Delavan Lake Five homes on the south shore of Delavan Lake were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. The homes’ original owners, locations and years of construction are: • Henry H. Wallis, 3407 South Shore Drive, 1900; • Fred B. Jones, 3335 South Shore Drive, 1900; • Charles and Mary Ross, 3211 South Shore Drive, 1902; • Carrie and George Spencer, the Ross’ daughter and son-in-law, 3209 South Shore Drive, 1902; and • Arthur P.

was not in perfect shape when they bought it.” The Majors based their renovations on Wright’s original design and purchased the gate lodge when it became available. The lodge had been separated from the rest of the estate and owned by Terry Canty, the daughter of Burr and Peg Robbins, until 2001, according to the Penwern website. Major said her favorite thing about Penwern is the open feeling upon entering the property. “I love, as you’re coming in, the feel of the countryside around the lake,” she said. Major said she also loves the garden, and the view of the lake that is unobstructed by the boathouse. “The alignment was thought through in such detail that (a) person sitting on the porch and looking out over the lake would have an unobstructed view of the opposite shore,” Hertzberg wrote on the Penwern website. “Had the boathouse been just one foot higher, that view would have been disrupted. That it was done in a time before computers showcases Wright’s genius.” The Majors – John, an investor, and Sue, who operates an executive search firm – still spend summers at their Delavan Lake home. Sue Major said those summers are getting longer now that their children are grown. She said her hope for Hertzberg’s book is to get an understanding of the person who built the house – understand what his thoughts were, how he met Frank Lloyd Wright and why the house was designed the way it was. “I really like the design of the house and how it fits on the property,” she said. While Hertzberg has learned many interesting things about Jones, the original question of how he met Wright hasn’t been cracked, Major said.

Ross Robbins – 1980 to 1989 Ross Robbins was the son of Burr and Peg Robbins. John O’Shea – 1989 to 1994 O’Shea owned the property except the Gate Lodge, which was owned by Terry Canty, Burr and Peg Robbins’ daughter, from 1980 to 2001. Sue and John Major – 1994 to present The Majors also bought the Gate Lodge in 2001 and used Wright’s plans to rebuilt the boathouse from 2002 to 2005.

and his mother’s uncle lived in a cottage named Penwern in Wales, Hertzberg said. The estate The 10-acre Penwern estate has four buildings that Wright designed – the main house, designed in 1900; a boat house, also thought to be designed in 1900; and a gate house and a barn, both of which date to 1903, Hertzberg said. He said the Delavan Enterprise chronicled construction of the barn and gate lodge in 1903. The boathouse burned in 1978 – an apparent arson, Hertzberg said. “Apparently people know who did it, but the individual was never charged,” Hertzberg said. The boathouse lay in ruins when current owners Sue and John Major bought the estate in 1994, he said. The Majors used Wright’s plans to rebuild the boathouse in 2002 and have won preservation awards for their work on the property, according to Wright in Wisconsin – a Frank Lloyd Wright historian group. Sue Major said the couple had great friends who introduced them to Delavan Lake during their search for a summer spot within an hour or two of their Barrington Hills, Ill., home. She said the couple were looking for a home on the lake when their children were small and saw an array of homes on the lake including Penwern, which was called Robbinswood at the time. Hertzberg said Burr and Peg Robbins, who owned the home from 1938 to 1980 after Jones’ death in 1933, renamed the home. Major said the home fit the Majors’ fondness for antiques, older things and renovation. “Our home in Barrington Hills was a renovation as well,” she said. “We learned about Frank Lloyd Wright, and we felt we could renovate.” “They rescued the house,” Hertzberg said. “The house

Penwern owners since the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed estate was built on South Shore Drive beginning in 1900 are: Fred B. Jones – 1900 to 1933 The property could not be sold for five years after Jones’ death in 1933 while his will was contested. Burr and Peg (Margaret) Robbins – 1938 to 1980 The Robbins renamed Penwern “Robbinswood.” The boathouse was destroyed in an arson fire in September 1978.
