EVIDENCE FINISHED In Hearing at 5:30 Friday— Root Township School Patrons Heard. County Superintendent L. E. Opliger, who heard the matter of the petition for consolidation of two school .'districts in Root township, Friday aftr ernoon, has taken the matter under ad- '; visement and will not render a decisI I ion for a few days. The case was tried in the circuit , court room, and begun Friday afternoon at 2 o’clock. The evidence was finished at 5:30. The petition was filed by a number of patrons of districts number 7 and 8, in Root township, asking that the Mallonee and Elzey school houses be abandoned in those districts, and that a joint school be erected at a point midway between the two, near the Mt Pleasant church. This would be attended by all the pupils living on the west side of the river. A number of patrons, whose children would have a longer trip to make to school, if the schools would be consolidated and necessitating the hauling of some of the pupils to school, objected, and filed a remonstrance. Evidence on both sides of the question jWas heard Friday. Attorney C. J. Lutz represented the petitioners, while D. E. Smith appeared for the remonstrators. The hearing was attended by a large number of the Root township residents, some simply as visitors and others as witnesses. NOTICE.

The blessing and distribution of palms to the faithful ’ will take place at high mass tomorrow in honor of the time during Christ’s life on earth, when the people of Jerusalem waved palms and sang, “Hosannah to the Son of David,” spreading their garments in the streets for him to pass over and proclaiming him their King.
