Porter Sehol Serves Alpha as sccio-
logical Center "a Well rs a School.

The Porter school is the best exam
pie or school building answering as
a sociological center that We have In
Iron county. When the school was
irst talked OF and Prof Bishop was
engaged as superintendent for the
township, he set out TO make the place
a center for all OF the social activities
OF Alpha and, as far as possible. for
the township as we'll AS result of
this policy the building is in constant
use, night and day. for some educa-
tional or social doing. AS result
the per capita costs OF maintenance
look high when compared with Crys-
tai Falls and Iron River, where they
keep their beautiful buildings closed
most OF the time
In addition TO serving as school
building, the Porter school Is used by
the Catholic. Methodist and Finnish
Lutheran people for church services
on Sunday forenoons. AS rule the
services alternate but several times
two services have been held in the
building at the same time
Every Sunday afternoon and even
ing the building is open for library
purposes and night school work.
Tuesday evenings It is always taken
for some society doings, such as
business mems meeting or some kin
dred association.
Wednesday evenings Night school
is held therein and If any organiza-
tion wishes to use II a place is found
for such use also. Thursday after
moons the Ladies' Aid meets in the
building and Thursday nights the IL
brary is open. On Friday nights
there is night school again and Sat
urday evenings there is always some
meeting called for the building. Thus
the janitor Is kept at work all OF the
time, heat and light must be provided
and many other expenses arise from
this constant use that serves to run
up the costs and make IL appear as
If Mastodon township per capita costs
are out of proportion to other schools
Prof. Bishop has received many
warm words OF commentator as a
result of his policy and his consistent
effort to make the place what he set
out To make e. The hoard Of educa-
ton has taken cognizance OF condi-
tions and at its last meeting arranged
for janitor services. IL will be neces-
sary to tax some of the organizations
trile in the future to compensate
the board for the extra expense but
the costs will be exceedingly light

A SCHOOL PHYSICIAN.

Dr. Edwards has been employed by
the board OF Education of Mastodon
township TO look after the health Of
the pupils OF the Mastodon township
schools. This does not mean that
spasmodioal attempts TO care for the
health OF the pupils will be the rule
but that constant care Of the pupils
will result and detailed examination
OF each pupil will be made by the
physician. OF which a record is 10 be
kept.
Hereafter, IL pupil OF the Porter
school complains OF being ill., that pu-
pill will not be sent home but. instead,
he or she will be put to bed. the doc
tor called and the pupil attended to
right away.
Prof Bishop thinks that the action
taken by the board will call for the
services OF a nurse before very much
longer and il is probable that a visit
ing nurse, arranged for somewhat on
the plan in Crystal Falls. will be en-
gagged at Alpha
The examination and records kept
Of each pupil are very complete After
much investigation and study, DR.
Edwards had filing blanks ordered
that are models OF efficiency and in
formation Or. Metcalf. the Crystal
Falls health officer. recently secured
set of them and it is likely that the
same system will be followed there.
The examination Of pupils has not
been completed yet but Or. Edwards
is progressing rapidly with the work
and expects TO complete it very soon.
Each parent is notified OF any defects
found.
At later date, after the examina-
ton is completed, an occulist OF re
pute will be brought TO Alpha to fit
the pupils whose eyes have been
found to be defective.

Claim against
Newark Refused
By Commission
Brooklyn Nationals Lose Big
Amount Asked for TO
Cover Losses.

Cincinnati, July 1O.-The claim Of
tho Brooklyn National League club Of
S75.293.e1 against the Newark club Of
the international League was to-day
denied by the National Baseball Com
mission, President Johnson Of the
American League. a member Of the
National Commission, refusing to
concur.
The commission. however, did allow
the Brooklyn club the difference be-
tween the amount received for the
franchise Of the Newark club and the
net expenses incurred in operating the
club during the year 1915 at Harris
burg. Penn, and at Newark
According to the commission, the
claim of the Brooklyn club was correct
and there was no manipulation in
money matters between these clubs,
but owing 10 the fact that the Brook
lyn club refused TO dispose OF its inter
ests i'm the Newark club when told TO
do so by the commission the original
claim was disallOwed.
The commission says the profits OF
the Newark club for 1913 were $4,000,
and in the fall Of that year SEQ 400 was
offered for the stock held by the Nc
Keevers and c. II. Ebbets, sr.. which
the latter states was declined because
the offer did not include the stock Of
Messrs. Medicus and Solomon at the
same price per share.
In supplemental statement support
ing the finding President Tener Of the
National League paid high tribute 70
the Brooklyn club for paying the OBJ
/ legations of Newark during the Federal
League war and thereby retaining il
as a member OF organized baseball.

splendid effort to capture the game for
Newark. but Dr. Cav proved too puz-
cling, the Tigers nickng him for only
four hits. ellis catches IN centre. with
the hitting of Jackson and Onslow, feat
