With his automobile kills another.
The killer is to spend one hour

is that it will make the killer

dead back to life.
Yoltsire had the idea reversed.
In "Zadig" a travelling philosopher
causes the young widows of India
to discontinue burning themselves
alive with the corpses Of their
own husbands. He didn't forbid it,
only made a law that before being
burned alive the young widow
should pass a couple of hours with
the handsomest young man in the
village.
After that for some strange
reason, the widow usually lost in

aged spouse. Often she disap-
peared before the funeral.

Even when you are dead, the
spirit takes care of itself, goes off
somewhere and the body remains
a nuisance. The simplest thing is
to burn it up, instead Of leaving

cremation idea.
Death and what we call its

Two Amendments
To School Bill
Committee Successful in Having
Hurley's Interests Protected by
Adoption of Amendments.

The committee appointed at
meeting held at the Lincoln High
school last week Wednesday evening
to go to Madison to protest against
the passage of a bill affecting school
districts was successful in having
two amendments tackled onto the bill.
The bill, with the amendments.
passed the assembly SO to %. 1t
had already been passed by the sen
ate, which also eoncurred in the
amendments, and it is now in the
hands of the governor for his
signature
One Of the amendments provides
that any school district containing
two cities or city and village. or
one maintaining common or graded
schools outside the city limits, shall
not be affected by the law.
The second amendment limits the
provisions of the law to farm lands
only.
mus Hurley's school district viii
not be affected by the bill, which be-
comes a law as soon as signed by the
governor, since the district contains
the cities of Hurley and Montreal.
There are also common and state
graded schools outside the city
limits.
In its original form the bin would
have allowed territory outside the
city limits to be detached from the
school district upon petition of three
fourths Of the residents Of the
territory desiring to be detached.
The detached territory would thus
escape its share of the cost Of sup
porting the high school An added
burden would be imposed on the re-
manning territory in the district.
The bin was sponsored by farming
interests in the southern part Of the
state. Many farmers adjacent to
cities maintain that they are unjust
~ taxed to support high schools in
cities They wish to escape this
tax and with that end in view
sponsored the bill
When the committee from Hurley
explained the conditions here they
found the assembly committee quite
ready to listen to reason and accept
the amendments.
