T.. w. Ranney Made Good Proposition
Fora New building on North
Side-Board Authorized To
Raise 80 500 the Coming
Year.

The annual school meeting OF School
District No. 9. which comprises the city Of
Belding, was held Monday evening, July
10, and there was a large representation
of the voters Of the district present, the in
terest which is taken in these annual
meetings each year is noticeable and is
evidence that our citizens are interested
in the schools and have choice as to who
shall compose the Board of Education.
One good feature which was highly ap-
precated by those present was the dis
tribution of printed copies Of the Direct
or's report, something that has not hereto
fore been done and which also contained
the recommendations of the Board.
The meeting was called to order by the
President Harry J. Connell, who presided
over the deliberations with dignity and in a
very satisfactory way.
w. |. Benedict the director, read the re-
port and recommendations of the board
which was published last week, the report
and recommendations were approved and
adopted with the exception of one, recon-
mendng the acquiring by lease or pur-
chase of two acres of land adjoining the
North Side school and the building OF a
one room addition to to building, this
recommendation brought out sharp dis
cussion and it was readily seen that the
North sders we're not to be put off with
patched up building without registering a
kick. Bryon Brown thought the first ward
was entitled to something better and
made good plea in behalf Of putting up
substantial buildings whenever the dis
tricts were ready to build. his speech
was loudly applauded.
Aaron Osborne was opposed to making
any addition to the old ramshackle sort Of
thing they had there now he said the
building was so cold in winter that his
little girl had to keep on her leggings and
cloak during school hours, he said he had

anv old thing would do for the st ward.

ward thoughtthey were entitled to reeog-

In the death of John Hay, secretary Of
state, one Of the great statesmen OF the
present age has passed away and the
nation has lost man regarded by many,
not only in this country but abroad, as
the greatest minister of foreign affairs Of
the day. His training had been especial
ly fortutous. He practically began life
as the private secretary of Abraham Lin
coin when but % years Of age and re-
ceiyed his first training in craftsmanship

greatest president. Following President
Lincolns death Mr.. Hay served his
country abroad in various minor diplo-
matte capacities for five years. period
which was followed by five years spent
as leading editorial writer on the New
York Tribune. He had meanwhile con-
tracted marriage which brought him
great wealth and after retiring from active
newspaper work he devoted himself to the
study Of diplomacy. literature and the
broader questions OF politics. Under
President Hayes he served as assistant
Secretary Of State and in 1867 he became
Ambassador to Great Britain and the fol-
lowing year was recalled to take the inn
poItant office Of Secretary Of State. With
such training he could hardly have been
other than Republican. although he was
moderate protectionist and. it is gener-
ally believed, hesltated at the precipit-
ancy with which President Roosevelt de-
termined to recognize the Republic Of
Panama. II that was true, however, he
was too loyal ever to permit his views TO
become known. His greatest triumph in
the field Of diplomacy was the enuncia-
ton Of the so-called ',open-door" policy in
the East. a prescient step which subse-
quently made not only logical but possible
his appeal to the nations OF Europe to de-
limit the field Of the present hostities be-

The Banner is in receipt Of the report
of the Michigan Forestry Commission for
i9o3-4
The original forest Of Michigan was
among the finest in the world. 1t sug-
gested the motto upon our shield.
Part Of this destruction was necessary
in the interest Of settlement. Much Of il
was ineYcusable waste. for scarcely one
half the state is settled and a scant one
third Of the land is improved
About one-third OF the state is cut and
burned over-an unproduetiye waste
area. Every acre OF this might anc
should bear forest cover, growing a
dollars worth Of timber every year.
More than six million acres OF this area
is state tax title lands.
This enormous loss appeals to our peo-
Pile. They demand that something shall
be done. The farmer, the business man
the press. ali join in this demand.
The state has felt the pressure OF thl:
demand and made start. 1t has i'm
proved the fire laws; il has set aside a
small portion OF these lands as perma-
nent Forest Reserve.
To care for this reserve; to gather anc
spread information in the interest OF 4
permanent forest policy; to awaken al
abiding interest in rsforestation, is tn,

igan Forestry Commission.

cation to build an addition to the present

building and the proposed annex none
could be purchased or even leased, he
would however make proposition in be-
half Of himself and the estate, that il the
district would build a new school house
costing from five to eight thousand dollars

land for term of 81 years, the district
to keep the fences in repair, Mr.. Ranneys

mously,

speech that Immediately caught the at
tention of the meeting, as he carefully
brought out the good points Of the candi-
date in his business and educational abli-
ties and the reason why he should be
placed on the board.
No other name was presented Tor the
place and the ballot resulted ! so for Mr..
Ballou and so for Mrs. Webster.

following resolution which was seconded
by W. B. Travis and on motion adopted
