thing more than superintendent. While
achieving first class rank for the

direction he was known also as Citizen

assume his full burden of public re-
sponsibility.
Hardly a week passed that the peo-
pie OF Pontiac were not placed in full
possession OF all the facts concerning
the various activities OF its schools.

the public into his confidence. The re-
suit was that when the schools needed
any equipment or additional buildings,
the voting population, through his
methods, knew in advance. and were
in possession of such information as
would rightly guide them. He followed
no beaten paths of self satisfaction,
but had an eye out constantly for the
raising of school standards. Pontiac
will always claim James III. Harris as
its own, and. in view of his latest pro-
motion, extends heartiest eongratula-

RACING WITH AERoPLANEs.

An entertaining feat was Louis
Paulhan's contest with Hamilton. who
was attempting to beat the speed rec
ord for ten laps. The American had
circled the course three times when
Paulhan rose i'm the air with his Far
its bonds, sped headlong after the
Curtiss machine. Around the course
they raced with the huge crowd yelling
its delight in frenzied fashion. Each
aviator was doing his best apparently,
but suddenly Paulhan called upon his
powerful "Gnome" engine for its ca
pacity work and opening wide the
throttle raced ahead of his opponent
Two laps later the Frenchman again
overlook Hamilton. AS the northwest
pylon was reached near the grand
stand Paulhan, who was Immediately
above the American, suddenly detected
his front planes and with the rapidity
of lightning dove underneath the Cur
space in front of the judges stand,
while the concourse fairly howled Its
approval. Hamilton, a trifle discon-
certed, flew wildly for a minute. but
quickly recovered and continued his
course. Paulhans action may have
been unprofessional. but to all intents
and purposes II was a real racing con-
test and the only one witnessed. Need
less to say the spectators were vastly
entertained by the sensational swoop
OF their favorite.-Samuel Glover, in

RESERVES MADE HAPPY.
BY Announcement that Money for
Last eYar's Cruise is Hore.


The members of the Hancock d'vi-
sion of the naval militia were made
happy yesterday by the announcement
that Paymaster Baer had received
from Lansing the money with which
to pay off those who had participated
on the annual cruise of the reserves OF
the Yantic last August. The enlisted
men have from twelve dollars upwards
coming to them, which they will ap-'
preciate the more for having waited
six months for payment. The delay
was due to the shortage of funds in
the state treasury and the great
amount of red tape that was involved
in the acceptance of the pay rolls by
the state military department.
1t is likely that at the regular drill
on Monday evening an election will
be held to fill the position of engineer
ensign made vacant by the resignation
of Joseph Pope. One or two other va
cancies also exist i'm the division and
staff. which will shortly be filed.

Linden, to Take Charge of Schools.
James III. Harris, one of our Lake

take the superintendency of schools in
Dubuque, Iowa, says the Native Copper

ris formerly of Pontiac, to the position
of superintendent of schools of Du-
buque, Ia, this popular and thorough
ly capable executive receives the pro-
motion that only comes to those who
have determination to achieve beyond
mere routine labor and plodding eff
fort.
When James III. Harris was superin-
tendent of schools in Pontiac, he was
a moving, active force in the commun-
ity. He realized that to be success
full school executive IL was necessary
for him to know the community well,
