Take Another Step
In Boundary Dispute
Michigan Admits to Testimony the
Davis Report Opening Way for
Ending State Boundary Dispute.

Madison THE attorney gen
erals office today announced that
word has been received from Robert
M. Rieser, special counsel in the
Michigan Wisconsin boundary case
which is pending before the supreme
court Of the United States, that
Michigan has stipulated the Davis re-
port in record as representing the
conclusions of Davis and Bird from
their investigation,
In 1907, the legislature of Michigan
directed Attorney General John E.
Bird, now a justice of the supreme
court of Michigan, to cause survey
of the disputed boundaries to be made.
Bird engaged Professor Davis of the
University of Michigan to make the
survey. Davis made the survey and
filed lengthy report with the at
torny general. In his report, he went
into the history and geography of the
situation fully so far as the Montreal
and Menomonie rivers are concerned
and announced in his conclusion that
Michigan had no case except perhaps
claim to some small islands in the
Menomonie river. He said further
that the boundary as claimed by Wis
consin in the Montreal region was
correct and that the Michigan claim
was groundless and could not be
established.
sssiao Michigan legislature, in 1909,
ssected the attorney general to have
this report printed and to submit it
10 the 1911 session of the Michigan
legislature together with the conclu-
s3ons of attorney general Bird. Wis
consin has had difficulty in securing
copy Of this report and the stipula-
ton providing for incorporating the
renars in the record is very important.

Suggests Increase
School Appropriations
In Annual Report

In his annual report to the board
of education which was recently
submitted. L. c. Glover. superintend-
ant of the Waterville schools, dis
cusses at some length school finance
and suggests to the board that a
considerable increase be made in the
appropriation to the school depart
ment for next year. He cites the
fact that. in spite Of the economy
that has prevailed in the department.
there is an overdraft this year and
he gives seven causes for it as fol-
lows: payment of cd bills of long
standing, opening of two additional
rooms, underestimate of fuel &C
count. underestimate of repairs ac-
count, unforeseen repairs that We're
mandatory. opening of additional
evening schools and reduction of the
amount of money asked for by the
Board of Education. Mr.. Glover
states that 1t costs the city of Wat
erville $446S to send one child to the
grade school for one year and S56.36
to send one child to the high school
for one year. the latter figure being
the lowest cost Of high school train
ing for any city in the state.

Scalps
That itch-that scale

You know it is germ trouble. Then
destroy the germs.
Sulphur does that. We scientists
never hope to find method better.
But we have found ways to give that
sulphur multiplied effects.
The new-day way is Mentho-Sul-
phur. Rub it into the scalp where
scale occurs or itching. Note how
quickly all the trouble disappears.
Dandruff and scale destroy the
hair. Keep the scalp clean and the
hair will be healthy. End at once, in
the best way known, the parasites
and scale.
Ask your druggist for a Jar OF
RowleS Mentho-Sulphur The first
time YOU apply it you will know it is
doing all that must be done. You do
yourself injustice if YOU don't.
