the supreme court of Iowa in an opinion
handed down in a case wherein the Farm
ers' Elevator company of Gowrie. a CO.

to open its books to Richard NJ. Funck,
whom the court brands as the ''puppet Of

According to the opinion Richard NJ.

refused and he commenced mandsmus pro-

its books TO him. The lower court sus-

the Broadway Church.
The annual rivalry between the senior
and junior classes of the high school as to
which can fly it's pennant from the highest
and most conspicuous point in the city is
now to the fore. The juniors got a start
on the seniors Thursday night by Haunting

trolman detected them. Officer Phillbrook.
as ne was patrolling Broadway shortly
after midnight Thursday heard voices in
ward say a light flashing there. After
some trouble he succeeded in pushing open
one of the church doors on the north side
and cautiously assembled the long flight Of
steps to the belfry, where he cornered the
adventurous young students. The boys mad
entered the church during choir practice
and had concealed themselves until the
singers departed. II they had not remained
so long in the belfry they would not have
attracted the attention of the policeman.

had once been a boy, after herding them
down stairs permitted them to go home.
The officer, however, overlooked the pen
nant and although somewhat bedraggled
by the rain II was still flying proudly from
its lefty vantage point when discovered by
some Of the seniors on their way to school.
Ii is now up to the seniors to outdo the
juniors, and their pennant will probably be
found flying from the top Of one of the
$50 feet high electric light towers some
bright morning.
