FAIR WEATHER Is
HOPED FOR PICNIC

Hundreds of Mercer county farm
ers are anxiously awaiting the
weather indications for tomorrow
The reason for their anxiety is
that the big farm and home bu-
reau picnic will be held at the fair
grounds and a rainy day would
seriously distemper the activities
for the day. Arrangements have
been completed and those in charge
are only too anxious to see the
day arrive. Farmers from all parts
OF the county and their families
will gather early tomorrow morn
ing at the fair grounds in Aledo
with well-filled baskets Of eatables
and with the idea of enjoying a
day of pleasure. and a rain, al
though badly needed by the crops,
would undoubtedly be more well
coined a day later.

AGREE TO PAY
BACK TUITION
FOR STUDENTS


Protesting action Of the Moline
board of education in recently deny
ing admission to the local high
school, pupils from Hampto nand
Maple Grove township until $500
tuition bills were paid, Hampton
tax payers met last night and
agreed to pay the debt. Maple
Grove residents are meeting in the
school house this evening and will
probably adopt similar attitude.
Today only three pupils from
Hampton are in Moline high school.
Their parents who had children in
high school between 1916 and 1913,
have guaranteed the Hampton debt
pending its settlement. No other
students will be accepted from
these communities until the debt is
paid, says. Superintendent L. A.
Mahoney.
The controversy between Moline
and residents of Hampton and
Maple Grove is the outgrowth of
differences of several years stand
ing. The state legislature last
year adopted a measure which Or
ganizes all non-high school districts
in a county into county high
school unit and authorizes taxation
to pay utition fees Of any pupil in
any high school in the state
Hampton and Maple Grove have
accumulated in the last four years
tuition bills amounting to $1,000
When pupils from these two dis
tricts reported for school this fall
the Moline board took advantage OF
the state law which states that
such pupils may enter any higf
school in the state and informed
the districts that Moline high school,
! was too crowded to accept non-resi
dent pupils and recommended thai
they be sent to Rock Island, Por
Byron or East Moline.
To assist the non-high schoo
districts, the Moline board suggest
ed in 1916 that it would wait unit
a tax levy should be made in 1911
before collecting its tuition bills
OF the % districts thus to b.
! favored, Hampton was the onl.
district that did not sign the con
tract. The Maple Grove director
later did not recognize their agree
ment and pending settlement tn
Moline board accepted pupils from
both districts.
! Tn action this week brought
storm of protest from parents Q
the nonresident pupils but tn
board remained firm. Action {
Hampton and Maple Grove author
ties will probably clear the situa

FEW SPEED CASES
IN COURT REPORT

There was a marked falling off
of speeders in East Moline last
month, according to the monthly
report Of Magistrate A. A. Niles
submitted yesterday. Only eight
speeders paid court fines during
August. This is considerably less
than the number reported for June
and July and may be due to the eff
forts Of George Sarginson, speed
cop, who Ras added to the East
Moline police force this spring.
Motorists are beginning to realize
that East Moline is enforcing traffic
rules.
Magistrate Niles report also
showed that % arrests had beer
made during the month, aggregat.
ing $267.30 in fines. This amount
would have been increased by IS;
had yesterdays report been in
cluded.
