PROPOSED AMENDMENT.

Minnesota for the year 1917. proposes
IN amendment of Article Is Of the Con-
stituNon of said State by adding there.
e q new section to read ~ follows:
The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1918-01-01

An unusual venture in representa-
tive government was made by a re-
cent conference of 100 Laps in
Northern Sweden These delegates
represented the whole nomadic peo-
pie, and their purpose was to frame
a united protest against certain laws
affecting their reindeer herds. The
Lapps rarely have any settled habi-
tation, moving from place to place
after the herds, and often coming
into hostile contact with the settled
Scandinavian farmers. The law of
Sweden requires the Lapps to pay
fine and damages when their rein
deer damage crops, and it was to
secure a modification of this statute
that the Lapps held representative
conference.
The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1918-01-01
TRAINING AIRPLANE GUNNERS

The great aviation school at To-
ronto has devised a most ingenious
scheme for training aviators in the
use of the machine gun. Two ap-
prentice flyers are sent up to fight
under all the conditions of actual
warfare. They make every effort
to aim and fire their machine guns
at each other, only in place of bull
lets, the gun is fitted with camera
lens and film. Every pull of the
trigger snaps a picture. If the shot
is a "hit" picture of the enemy"
airplane appears on the film; if
miss, the film is blank. By eXamin-
ing the strip of film afterward, it
is possible to tell exactly how many
hits each man made and how accu-
rately he was shooting"

THE GRAPE BLIGHT.

A disease imported from America
almost ruined the grape and wine
industry of Europe, when the grape
phylloxera left these shores and
fastened on the European vines.
Only the most heroic measures held
the pest in check. Now an Italian
scientist announces that the phyllox-
era in Europe has developed beyond
any point that it ever reached in its
native America, going so far as to
