THIS SCHOOL
DISTRICT HAS
LEARNED A Way
Grover Children Will BE Given
Schooling in Spite of the Funds
Bein0 . Little Shy

School district 93 In the Grover
neighborhood, has solved the PROB
lem of having school for the chill
dren, even when funds are 30 scarce
that 1t seemed impossible to meet
the demands.
Although the district has the dis
tinction of being the largest In the
county. 80 miles long and Is miles
wide, and is supplied with ten
school houses, 1t is sparsely settled
and has few pupils and a cores
pondingly low school fund.
The new plan. which has been
called the "Tandem method" pro-
yides one teacher for the district.
who will spend two months In each
school house, thus giving each OF
the pupils Of the district an oppor-
tunity to attend school at homo for
two months, with the privilege OF
sdriving to the next school mouse
whom the teacher moves. Although
entirely new, 1t is believed that the
plan will work successfully and at
worst will be more satisfactory than
closing schools through the year
for want OF money to hire 80 many
teachers.

M|LL|KEN
DEFENDANT
IN A SUIT
RESTAURANT MAN WANTS PAY
FOR MEALS FURNISHED
FEO A VICTIM OF SMALL POX
Lone Patient Was Isolated for %
Days-City Refused to Pay for
His Board While in the
Pest House

The town of Milliken is made the
defendant in an odd suit filed in the
county court this morning in which
Miller Huffsmith, restaurant keep
er of the town, demands sS6, alleg-
ed to be due for serving meals to
patient in the pest house last sum
mer.
1t appears that Edward hoeft was
last June and was sent to tenn
porary pest house provided by the
town board on June 4. Here he re-
mained for 25 days until liberated
by the physician in charge. During
this time Huffsmith furnished meals
to the solitary patient of the pest
house and the nurses there who
were taking care of him. When
Huffsmith presented his bill to the
town board it was not paid and,
failing to secure q settlement, the
suit was brought.
The case is a new one for MILL
ken, as the pest house and the care
of it only came to a test last sum-
mer. 1t is alleged that the town
board is responsible for taking care
of all persons affected with contagi-
Gus diseases under the state statute,
which holds the town board liable
where no other provision has been
made.
The outcome will be watched with
interest in that the decision may es-
tablish a precedent for other cases
of contagious disease that may
come to the attention of the city
fathers

APPLICANTS FOR CITIZENS
 PAPERS HAD WIRES CROSSED

Concetto Dimaria, resident of Saugatuck, who desires to become a citizen of the United States, is either badly mixed up in some of his dates. or Philip Cinto of this city, one of the witnesses he secured to make his ap- plication certain, has his wires cross ed. This morning Limaria appeared before Assistant Clerk Fred w. Tracy of the Superior Court for his second papers. Dimaria says he came to this state in January, 1906. Cinto says that he came to this state from Pennsylvania along with Dimaria. When Cinto was asked if he was d citizen he stated that he was and proceeded to show his papers. The papers were issued in the Quaker state in March, 1906, though Cinto maintained he came to Bridgeport in January, 1906. When questioned fur ther both men stated that there might be a chance that they did not come from Pennsylvania together. As it was impossible for both men to come to an agreement on the dates, Clerk Tracy had nothing to do but to send them on their way without the neces- Sary papers.
