FOR BATTERY F
Moline. Will Give Its Own VOIun-
teer Unit a Happy Greeting,
Says Mayor Skinner. a.

Mayor c. P. Skinner of Moline
today announced that he will start
plans to welcome home Moline's

battery is expected to arrive in
this country within a week or 10
days.
The old Company F, Illinois Ma
tional Guard, left Moline nearly
two years ago. 1t is a volunteer
unit and the blow City is planning
on giving its own division a warm
welcome festival. Every patriotic
and civic organization in the city
will take part in welcoming home
the heroes who fought at St. Mihiel
and at the Argonne.
Company F left Moline one night
in august, 1917, without a sendoff
of any kind. The boys boarded a

they were six weeks ago when the

HOLD ELECTION
TO Be INVALID
Citizens May Vote Again On Logan
- School Proposition Within
Next 80 Days

Citizens may have another chance
to vote for new school within the
next 80 days. it was stated at the
board of education office today.
Wood and Oakley, boad attorneys
of Chicago and George w. Wood Of
Moline, engaged by the Moline
board of education, yesterday sub
mitted TO the board their opinions
that the last school election, on the
face Of the returns, is invalid
A new school in the Logan dis
trict cannot be erected unless an
other election is held There is
agreement as to insufficiency of the
election petition and in the face os
such an opinion it will be impos-
sible for the board to float the
authorized bond issue of $40 900 to
provide a new school building.
To assume legality of the next
: election on the new school propO-
Ntion, a petition must be presented
to me board signed by 500 voters,
asking that the following ques-
tons be submitted to a vote:
Shall a school be built?
Shall site be purchased?
Which site shall be selected?
Shall the board issue bonds?
The election on April 10 was 81
legal because the petition signed by
the voters did not include the item
of purchasing a site. 1t is prob
able that on the new petition the
board will advise that the bond is
sue be raised from $4,000 to
SIS. 900, because it has been found,
after estimates have been made,
that $4,000 is insufficient. The new
petition may also give four loca-
tiOns for the new school, namely
the Blackwell site, the Gordon
playground on Twenty-fifth street,
the Gordon homestead location on
Twenty-fifth street and the Wilson
place on Twenty-fifth street,
The new school has been a sub
ject of discussion for months. When
the election was finally held, all
was satisfactory with the exception
of the school site At that election
the Gordon site received the plural
ity but not the majority of the votes
cast at the election. At a subsc-
quent meeting the board of educa-
ton voted six for and five against
the Blackwell site. The validity
of the election followed, which will
result in an entirely new vote to
the electorate.
