Thurs, "The Girl from Outside"
adopted from Rex Beach's widely
known story, "The Wag Lady," It
is a drama Of Alaska and yet it
bears no resemblance either to "The
Brand" or 'The Spoilers" "The
Girl from Outside" has a charm all
it's own.
Friday, Last episode of s'The Ad-
ventures of Ruth, Pathe Review
and Monkey comedy.
Saturday, "The Cup of Fury" by
Rupert Hughes. Which was the real
woman? Was the laughing, dancing
butterfly of wealth the real woman?
Or was it the worker, who cast
aside money and ease for the lot Of
a common laborer?
There was a man who saw her as
both but never knew she knew her.
self which was the life she really
meant to live.
Sunday, Owen Moore in "The Des-
perate Hero" A merry mirthful
comedy drama that mixes love,
laughter and limousines into a cock
tail of Joy. A picture that will send
you away with smile.
Monday, III. B. Warner in "a
Fugitive from Matrimony." A clever
portrayal of man in a vain effort
to escape the clutches of Dan Cupid
and clever exposition of the reason
why women marry.
Tuesday, "Shod with Fire" feat
uring William Russell. A big pulls
ing story of the West, with the star
at his best.
Wed. and Thurs. He was a Ken

Summer Blouses

the schools of the District in keeping
with their pride, and educationa
aims.
The past year has been no excep
ton from the standpoint Of the sue
cess with which under an able Super
intendent and corps of teachers the
schools of the district have been run
The attendance has increased norm
ally, and the spirit of the students
and their desire to secure an educa-
ton has been high average compar-
ed with other schools which we have
opportunity to observe.
The resignation of Mr.. Frank O.
Holt as Superintendent has been re-
ceived and accepted. This is a mis-
fortune which sooner or later had to
come to Edgerton. The city regrets
his leaving, and pupils, board and
public have fittingly expressed their
high appreciation of his wonderful
success in this city.
The engagement of his brother
Fred j. Holt gives reasonable assur-
ance of continuance of the good
work of the schools. The school
Board closed the contract with him
only after due deliberation. We hope
that he will have the same coopera-
ton from the public which has been
so literally accorded to Frank Holt.
According to law the School Board
met in special session Saturday June
rs, and at an adjourned meeting on
Monday June %, ait the. offices of
the First National Bank for the pur-
poses of reviewing the expenses of
the past school year, and forming a
budget, for your approval at this
meeting. This work was carefully
done at this special meeting, and we
submit the following figures:
. During the past year we have dis
bursed the following amounts class
flied into twelve accounts for con-
venience:
Teachers Salaries 27,425.61.

On some of these items we are
able to make a lower estimate this
year. On teachers and janitors sal
aries and fuel however we are
obliged to increase or recommends
tons materially. The shortage Of
teachers, and the movement which
has been so pronounced to pay them
more adequately in Wisconsin makes
the greatest difference in our re-
quirments, and is really an impor-
tant item of the budget.
We therefore present the following
quirments, and is really the impor-

KANSAS COURT
JAILS MEN IN
STRANGE Way
No Criminal Powers, In
dustrial Judges Call On
Regular Court
BY MABEL ABBOTT,
N. E. A. Staff Correspondent.

PITTSBURG, Kan, April 90
The Kansas court of Industrial rela-
tons has no criminal jurisdiction.
Therefore when anybody disobeys its
subpoenas, it has to call on another
court to enforct them.
So it was Judge Andrew J. Curran
of Pittsburg, Kan, as district judge
of Crawford county. before whom
Alexander Howatt, president of Dis
trict IA, United Mine Workers, and
brought when they refused to testi-
fly in the industrial courts investiga-
ton of conditions in the Kansas coal
fields.
Judge Curran wrote the sentence
with a pencil, while the defendants
waited Then he looked over his
specks and said:
sit is the decision of this COURT
that you be confined in jail until such
time as you submit to obey the sub
poena of the Court of the Industrial
Relations"
Citizens of Pittsburg say that any
body who wants to defy law shows
poor judgment in doing it within
Judge Curran's jurisdiction. He
made enforcement of the law his
platform when he ran for Office, some
10 years ago. and it has become a
fixed habit of his.
When he was elected, they say, this
part of Kansas was dry in name only.
Liquor was sold openly in every town
and mining camp.
Judge Curran proceeded to close
the houses where it was sold. They
were opened again. He closed them
and had them locked up. The locks
were broken and business proceeded
as usual
Burn them" said the judge, and
they were burned. When a GROCERY
was wedged so closely between other
buildings that it could not be burned
without danger, he had it torn down
with crowbars.
/ would not say there is no booth
logging in the county," said Pitts
burg lawyer, "but l will say it is pref
ty circumspect these days"
