Thursday evening, a news story to
the effect that on his return from
army service, Gus Lidholm was
confronted by a warrant charging
wife desertion, the case later being
dismissed by the re-uniting of hus-
band and wife, Elsie. Lidholm, who
was absent two years, is alleged to
have made the statement that he
had been driven from home by "the
nagging' of his sister-in-law. Tho
said sister-in-law, happy though
she is at the reunion of her sis
ter and her husband. resents the
accusation as both unfounded and
unjust, stating while she has stood
Loyalty by her sister and sustained
her in the absence of her husband,

able or unpleasant with Lidholm
and gave him no occasion to make
such silly statements. On the con-
trary she has done all in her power

EAST MOLINE MAY
ABANDON IDEA OF
BUILDING FOR 1920
Especial Moline Service. }

kOpGCIdl AIOlAilS OGTFEC6-J
The idea of starting the new
John Deere school building in East
Moline this year may be abandoned
until next year. At a meeting of
the board of education last even
ing, no action was taken on the
proposed structure.
Two months ago a special cleo
ton was held/to authorize bonds in
the sum of $50, 1000 for the erection
of the building. Bids were adver-
tised for and when opened revealed
that the contractors had asked
more than double the amount the
board had figured on spending for
construction. The Central Engi-
neering company of Davenport
was the lowest bidder, but at that
its contract price was more than
double $4,000
Action will most likely be taken
when all members of the board re-
turn from their vacations. The
need of a new structure to replace
the old John Deere school is self
apparent. The board hopes to ar
range to get more money and to
start the building late this fall to
be ready for occupancy in Septem-
Der of 1920.
Appointment of two teachers to
replace the two resigned this June,
will await the return of Superin-
tendent D. B. Hoffman, who is in
La Fayette, Ind. The school term
opens Sept 2, the day following La
Dor day The board last evening
reappointed Anna Peterson, truant
officer, at $45 a month The ap-
pointment of janitors, which will
in all probability be the same as of
last year, was left to the building
and grounds committee.
