Executive Committee,
Alberta Junior Red Cross Society
The Alberta school is still closed this
week to avoid any possibility to intro
duce Spanish Influenza. The board OF
education considered this a wise course
at it's meeting last Saturday evening
Oct. 10. School sessions will begin
again Monday morning, Oct. %. Upon
resumption of school session strict at
tendance will be enforced. All patrons
of the district, therefore, are kindly
asked to send their children promptly
and regularly so that no further steps
are necessary by the school admins
tration. School attendance has been
poor this fall for the first time in the
history of the school. This was neces-
sary in many instances to harvest the
big crop, when it was impossible to get
help to relieve the children of school
age. After Nov. l every child under 16
will have to be in school. Even with
regular attendance after this it is hard
to see how some children will be able
to pass their grades this year.
1t is gratifying to know that not q
single case of the influenza exists in the
school district.
The children in school live and work
under strictly sanitary conditions
Every means, for their safety is care
fully watched and faithfully executed
No parents should fearfor their children
in the Alberta school. They are safer
than in many homes.
The closing of the school is very
heavy loss for the district about $16O
per week, but the board considered it
their duty to watch the health of the
children first and preclude any possibil-
ity of introducing the Spanish grippe
into the district.
Supt. Grafelman is very busy reor-
ganizing the library and revising and
enlarging the course of study in the

grades will pursue a regular course In
citizenship, in response to the call Tor
this by the president of the United
States. This is very essential, since on
ly about 10 per cent of Americas future
citizens complete the first year of the
high school,, thus availing themselves OF
the regular course of this study in the
high school. and 80 per cent go into life
ignorant of Americas purpose, institu-
tions and ideals.

to her relatives in Duluth during this

to real hostility to our government and
sympathy for our enemies. In his
ignorance Agnew seemed to think that
some of his troubles were due to war
conditions which should have been
avoided.
After delivering a rigid lecture on
patriotism and exacting from Agnew
vow never again to be guilty of dis
loyal or unpatriotic language. Esq
Currie dismissed the case with the un-
derstanding that Agnew leave this
community on the first train, never to
return.
In company with some relatives who
had come to his assistance, Agnew
left on the nine o'clock train Tuesday
morning for his former home near
Milan, in Gibson county.
At his hearing before Esq. Currie,
Agnew insisted that he had never
been guilty of the language attribut-
ed to him and that he was a loyal and
patriotic American citizen. He will
doubtless be kept under surveillance
until all doubt as to his loyalty shall
have been proven by his future con-
duct.
