Were Well Pleased.

Professors D'Oge and Pettee, OF Mich
gan University, concluded their examin
alton of the Calumet high School yester
day afternoon and were very well pleased
with the condition OF things about the
institution. Although they did not say
that the school would be continued on
what is known as the accredited list at
the university they spoke so highly OF
what they had seen that there lie no doubt
but that they will make a favorable re-
port to Ann Arbor.
They spent the day listening to classes
recite and otherwise examining the meth
ode OF study and at the close OF the after
noon session addressed the school. Both
OF the professors complimented the stu
dents on their school.
According to the Detroit papers Prof.
D'Oge is slated tor President Angeles
place at he University during the latter's
absence 10 Turkey where he will be the

essors went to Lake Linden from here.

children growingup, would Joke on so

yesterday about the closing up OF sd
looms the editor was informed that it was
no unusual thing for saloonkeeper,
whose residence Is az one end OF the vii
lage and his saloon at the other, 10 be
seen meandering home at ? and 3 o'clock
in the morning. presumably upon the
closing OF his establishment. The bar
tender at another place was often kept
at work until or o'clock and some
times even as late as O'Clock in the
morning. This would not make one be-
lieve Annanias' statement that the liquor
laws were rigidly enforced in this village.
There is bill before the senate which
contemplates limiting the number of ga.
looms, create power to cancel licenses
WI en- the holder violates the law, and
vests authority TO refuse licenses to per-
sons OF bad character.
The NEWS thinks such bill would be
grand thing TO keep bad men out OF the
business aud TO brighten the greedy, law
breaking saloonkeepers INTO keeping the
law, and would advise people TO write
Senator Robinson and our representa-
tives TO do all they can for the passing of
the bill, which is known as ''the Mason
hill"

The Bicycle Ordinance

lt would be well tor all bicycle riders
to obey the letter and spirit OF the laws
OF Red Jacket village regulating their
use, as Marshal Ward says he is going
to enforce every village ordinance in this
regard and will make an example OF the
first wheelman found violating any of
the ordinances.
The village council has ordained that
riders shall not be allowed to ride on the
sidewalks and that all wheels will be
provided with bells which are to be rung
at all crossings. The marshal says that
these ordinances are, as a rule, complied
with, but the ordinance regulating speed
is disregarded entirely by swift riders.
The law says that riders shall not go
faster than the rate OF seven miles and
hour and must go slower at crossings.
The ordinance providing that riders shall
have lighted lamps on their bikes after
dark is also disregarded. The marshal
wishes the NEWS to warn riders that he
means to enforce the laws and he expects
them to obey or take the consequences.
