trench sectors at important points
along the battle line and still oth

called upon to play no small part in
meeting it.

RESTRAINING ORDER
PERMANENT
From Monday's Dai!y.
Judge Begl-y handed down a de
cision last Saturday af'ernoon in the
case of Morris et al vs. the Director
of School District Numoer 66. affirm
ing the temporary order, in which
he had granted to keep board from
using money and incurring debt to
build a school houe without the
voters in the district fi'st giving au
thority for such action. The school
house which was burned down some
months since, was sought tc be
built again, was in the center of a
section 29, where it was located
seme forty years ago. after a fight
in which there was much spirit
shown. With the burning of the
school house, the matter came up
again as to re-location, and a vote
to place the school house rn a main
road v.-as defeated by a vote of 23
tc 21. Those who objected to the
school house in the center of the
section brought the matter of wte.l
in the summer and isolation, alid
bad water, but as the vote for re
moval had been defeated, the opinion
of the judge that the location be
kept where it i3 unl-ss a majority
rote says to change u, while on the
question of spending the money
without first appropriating it by
vote. lie held the restraing order
good. The district which lays ad
jacent to Elmwood, would be gladly
absorbed by that city, but this is ob
jected to by the members of the dis
trict board.

correction. Today at the Imu-ntiel
