SICKNESS CLOSES
SEVERAL GRADES
IN LOCAL SCHOOLS
PART OF THE 9Th AND ALL OF
THE 7TH AND 8TH GRADES
WITHOUT TEACHERS

The scholars in part of the sixth
grade and all of the seventh and the
eighth grades are having a little va
cation all by themselves now which
was not on the regular vacation SCH
edules and which is far from being ap-
proved of by the board of education
members, Superintendent Skinner of
the teachers who are unable to be on
the Job and attending to their duties of
instructing the coming men and wo-
men of America who are under their
care and charge while in school.
The teachers in part of the 9th and
7th grades were either sick themselves
or with some other people who were
seriously sick and could not be there
to teach on Monday morning and the
scholars in the eighth grade got their
vacation when Miss Edna Bliss, their
teacher, gave up her school work,
temporarily, on Monday afternoon and
went to take care of her mother, Mrs.
w. A. Bliss, who broke her right leg
in a fall in front of the post Office that
afternoon. Another teacher was re-
ported snowbound at Ionia owing to
the inability of trains to be sent thru
over the division. The scholars va
cation will undoubtedly be short lived
though as the flu situation is better
and the patients who are down with
the sickness are recovering and not
so many reported as coming down

thought that the regular classes in
the grades referred to will again be
held in day of two.

Bar Association Favors
Laws to Protect Aliens
Would Give Government Right
TO Intervene When State Acts
Are Contrary to Treaties

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2s.-Federal legis-
lation guaranteeing more adequate pro
lection to aliens in their treaty rights
was recommended at to-day's session
of the convention of the American Bar
Association by its committee on juris-
prudence and law reform.
The proposed Legislation provides
that the "President be authorized to
direct the Attorney General, in the
name and behalf Of the United States.
to file a bill in equity in the proper
district court of the United States
against any person or persons threat
ening to violate the rights of citizen
or subject Of foreign country Sc
cured to such citizen or subject by
treaty between the United States and
such foreign country; and that this
provision shall apply to acts threaten
ed by state officers under the alleged
justification of law of the Legisla-
ture of the state in which such acts
are to be committed"
In eases where aliens are brought
to trial in state courts, the govern
ment, under the proposed law, would
have power to file an intervening
petition for the transfer of the action
to Federal court

Battleship To Be Used
AS Seaplanes' Target

WASHINGTON. Aug. 26.-Another
oldtime American fighting ship, the
battleship Indiana, is to be sacrificed
to the cause of naval efficiency. In
lower Chesapeake Bay in Septembe I
the vessel will be subjected to. a rain
of bombs from a squadron Of naval
seaplanes.
This will be the first actual test to
be conducted by any navy to show
the possibilities of direct attack upon
warships from the air, according to
American naval officers. Flying at
heights ranging from a minimum of
1000 feet to about 5000, the six planes
which it is planned to include in the
squadron will attempt first to demon
strate the practicability Of hitting \
target the size of q battieship, using
for this purpose non-exDlosive bombs.
If the range is found the battleship
will then be subjected to the explosive
force of bombs carrying minimum of
1000 pounds of TINT. If there is a
visible remnant of the Indiana at the
conclusion of the bombing experiments
she will be used later as a stationary
target for the dreadnoughts of the
Atlantic feet
The Indiana was one of the first bat
tleships Of the navy and recently was
placed out of commission to give way
for new superdreadnough of the
same name She played an important
part in the destruction of Cervera 5
fleet at Santiago. =
