new HEARING IN
SCHOOL CASE IN
COURTS DECREE
Important Ruling Of High Tri-
bunal in Action of Cant VS..
Crossley.
DECISION is FAR REACHING
II Unconstitutionality of Act Is Proven
Wcmen's Suffrage Bill May
Also Be Killed.
Especial tc The Argus)

Springfield, H., Oct 25.-The SUI
preme court today granted a rehearing
in the case of the people. ex rel, A. B.
Cant vs,H. S. Crossley, appealed from
the circuit court of Rock Island coun-
ty The court previously held the
township high school act of 1911 un.
constitutional because it was really an
amendment TO school act of 1909 in
stead of being a separate law. 1t is
reported here that if on the rehearing
the court still holds the law unconsti.
tutional the legality of the woman S
suffrage act will be attacked on the
same grounds, inasmuch as the same
principle is involved.
The above dispatch will be read
with a great deal of interest because
of the wide effect of the holding OF
the supreme court on suits similar to
the East Moline action. 1t will be re
membered that East Moline wanted q
high school and organized a district
under the school act, taking in much
of the rural community surrounding
the city. The rural population object
ed and began suit. Under the law, il
is possible TO organize high schoo
district in any territory in which there
is an affirmative vote on the matter.
APPEALED FROM HERE.
Quo warranto proceedings were
brought by the DIRECTORS in circuit
court here. ]. T. & S. r. Kenworthy
and A. B. Johnson represented The
trustees of the school district, anC
Searle & Marshall those opposed
Judge F. d. Ramsay held the law un
der which the school district had beer
organized unconstitutional and the su
preme court sustained the local court
Now the high tribunal is reopening the
matter for the purpose of again con
sidering the ccnstitutionaity Of the
high school act.

precaution in the art of packing is to
put the heaviest clothes at the bot

folded between dark and light clothes

perishable evening dresses, especially

Hot weather Don'ts.

Among the hot weather don'ts that
annually appear in papers all over
the country the one that appeals most
TO house keepers is, Never serve heavy
meals in summer" Poor thing
she's ready TO give up the Serving
OF meals, light or heavy, at this stage
OF the game, and the difficult part
OF the warm weather catering is that
most Of the very nourishing foods are
heating to the blood and most Of the
cooler foods are not nourishing.
The rirst thing to consider in the
making of a menu at all seasons is
balance The housewife should try to
arrange the light meals for the hot
days and to welcome an occasional
cool spell to serve the nutritive foods
THAT are so essential to the preserva-
Aion OF strength.
Red meats should be used as little
as possible in hot weather. At meal
where it IS served the rest Of the menu
should be light, such as simple vege-
table and an iced dessert.
on the other hand, when meat is
not on the bill of fare plenty OF nour-
ishment in other forms should be pro-
1ideI An iced jellied broth is appe-
tizing and nutritive. Fish, cold or
hot, a salad and an ice makes good
selection for dinner.
