The Churchill County High School
Board Met and Passed Number
of Resolutions Involving the
Conduct of the Local
High School.


The following are the minutes of
the meeting of the Churchill County
High Schoo! Board, held last Satur-
day morning:
AFTER allowing the monthly bills
the following business was trans
acted:
Ordered that the present school
term end on June 18th, and that to
make this possible, school be he'd
on every Saturday during the re-
mainder of the term, with the ex-
ception of the Saturday on which
the academic meet Is held at the
University II was also decided that
school shall be closed on the Friday
before the academic meet In order to
permit the Churchill county team to
try out on the Mackay field that day
Ordered that the regular month
" meeting of the Board of Educat-
ion be held at the high school on
tie first Monday evening of each
month at O'Clock. All bills will
be allowed and all regular business
will be transacted at these monthly
meetings Those having business to
present to the board should arrange
TO be present at the regular monthly
meeting or to file their bills or COM
munications with the board prior TO
the time OF meeting.
Ordered that the clerk be author
lied to purchase some printed let
ter heads for the BOARD, also min
ute book
Ordered that the matter of elect
ing a principal for the 1915-16 term
be taken up and disposed of at the
regular meeting to be held on May
3rd.
IN the matter of fixing the closing
date for the present term, the board
felt that ii was highly desirable TO
nx the date as early as possible. On
account of the time lost while the
quarantine was in effect, IL would be
necessary to run the school until
July ith, in order to complete the
full term. keeping school only five
days per week But If the remain
ing Saturdays are made use of. the
term can be completed June 18th, or
almost three weeks earlier
The Board believes that many of
the students will be greatly needed
at home during these three weeks,
TO help with the summers work, and
extended until rs late as July 7th, a
number OF the pupils will be unable
to attend during the last two or three
weeks, which, in some respects, con
ntitute the most important part of
the entire term. OF course it is
realized that attendance at school
on Saturdays will break into the
customary routine TO some extent,
and will deprive the parents of the
help of tho boyb and girls on those
days. Tho board feels, however,
that this Inconvenience win be much
less than would ne imposed by con-
tinuirg the term three weeks longer,
which would take It clear through
the first hay crop and into the hot
weather.
IN providing for carly closing OF
tho school, the board asks for the
hearty cooperation OF all school
patrons to the end that ell OF the
students may attend regularly right
through to the close of the term.
Yours very truly,

"JTTNEYs" AND MORALS.

No one was surprised, we feel safe
to say. at Mayor Keller's disclosure
Saturday. that it was the street car
company, rather than the public that
has been demanding the regulation Of
the 'Jitney" buses. 1t beats all how
considerate these magnates are of the
public safety and the public morals.
which they are advancing as reasons
why the "jitney" owner should be
placed under the ban. Note this for
once ,as among the advices that they
furnish:
1t is rumored. though uncon-
firmed, that one jitney driver
took a young couple out into the
country for illegitimate purposes.
Well. it is not only rumored. but
confirmed, that is scores of cases.
young couples have taken the street
cars TO the city limits. and proceeded
from thence TO illegitimate associa-
tons The court records are full of
such combinations. And neither did
time need 20 await the arrival of the
"jitney" bus. 20 find automobiles
BILE design Car owners. sometimes Of
the very respectable" sort. have been
known 10 tote" young girls TO the
very mouth Of hell. in their splendidly
equipped limosines. ct cetera. But
we are glad TO observe the street car
magnates looking at the moral side
OF the issue. We think henceforth
the city will be safe.
And then that question Of the pub
lie safety. We read that Saturday
night, a ''jitney' bus struck az east
bound Lake shore train. wrecking the
''jitney' and spraining the owners
wrist. The driver was unable TO stop
because of the wet condition Of the
pavement.
That is different of course, than the
tracks OF the street car company be-
ing soaped. as alleged. at the time Of
the killing of that man near Misha-
waka last week.
We hope that the Lake Shore train
made a safe escape.-but we note that
another automobile owner. not of
"jitney." drove his car into a Grand
Trunk train Saturday night. 1t was a
bad night for the railroads and sure
they are in need of protection. but,
remember dearie,-they need it only
as against the "jitneys."

The excitement caused by the resig-

fury compared with the political
storm in Great Britain If. instead of
one man dropping out Of the cabinet

England has been going through.
The American people today are
incomparably more harmonious than
the British. our government has far
more faithful support for its foreign
policies than the British government
has. even after its reorganization.
II is natural that there should be
considerable discussion in both cOun-
tries. II is the usual thing for dem

about democracies is that they have
so much native energy and initiative.
so much sheer soul-power, that they
usually pull through in spite OF their
lost effort England can be in tur-

TOSSING BOOZE BOMBS.

a speaker at the convention OF the
National Liquor Dealers association
declared:
Prohibition is a wolf in sleeps
clothing, a destroyer and devourer
wearing the garments Of temperance
and roaring with the tongue and
turbulence OF the tempest"
Another speaker upheld alcohol as
the best friend of the human race.
the source OF public and private vigor,
health and morals. and explained that
it was prohibition that filled the
prisons. aImshouses and insane asy-
lums.
This is turning the tables on the
temperance reformers with a VEN
geance. The widest prohibition lead
ers have never arraigned King Alco-
hol with more severity The liquor
men seem to be catching bombs
thrown by super-heated prohibition
lists and tossing them back into the
enemy's trenches. These denuncia-
tons are like the retort Of the col
Ored lad who, after being subjected
to an outburst Of prolonged, eloquent
and profane abuse, economical ef-
fort and thought by shrieking back:

This method. needless to say, is not
the best way to stem the tide OF pro-
hibition.

NO real, PROFIT IN WAR.

The European belligerents. especial
" the two that are interfering most
with our commerce. are convinced
that we are getting rich out OF the
war and that conviction has good
deal 10 do with their petulant treat
ment OF our trade protests.
II we are getting rich. il isn't mere
~ because we're profting. even unin-
tentionally. from the misfortunes of
the warning powers. Most American
economists agree that we should have
been in a better business condition
than we are If there had been no war.
That view is supported by the fact
that every hint of peace sends up the
prices OF American securities in the
stock market. and every event that
seems 20 portend prolongation OF
the struggle has a "bearish" influence.
Foreign trade figures sweep away
any misconception as 10 the share
that war orders have had In reviving
American business. According 20 the
statement Of the federal department
OF commerce. our total exports OF
manufactured articles for the war
period so far are less than for similar
periods in peaceful years. The net
increase in our exports has been due
solely 70 the marketing OF our big
wheat surplus The war helped 20
make that market 20 be sure, and yet
that ADVANTAGE was counteracted by
lac Gripping effect Of the war on the
cotton industry. our enormous ia
vsrsble balance OF trade has been due

more than anything else TO the fact
that We we're unable to obtain our
usual quantities Of imports. and that
lack in itself has seriously hampered
many Of our industries.
II may fairly be said that our bust
ness recovery thus far has been less
on account Of the war than in spite
OF the war. Our great crops. together
with the need Of replenishing manu-
featured supplies Of all kinds after
long period Of slack production. and
the encouraging understanding and
cordiality arrived at between business
and government. all seemed to create
the groundwork Of a new period Of
development such as no merely po-
litical events could altogether destroy.
The outburst Of war nipped in the bud
what appeared 10 be a genuine bust
ness revival. Now the revival is COM
ing again, with a prospect OF growth
which the war will help in some re-
spects, and hinder in others.
Our manufacturing exports are now
steadily increasing. and unless inter-
rupted are likely to be a much bigger
factor in foreign trade history during
the next few months But however
much stuff we may sell TO Europe for
military purposes. we wish that Eu-
rope would understand that we'd be
better off in a business way If the war
would stop, and that even if our pros
perity depended solely on the war
we'd work and pray for peace just the
