The Supreme Court Decision Concerning Suspension and Expulsion
of Pupil is Given.
The Department of Public Instruction
is often asked questions in regard to the
suspension of .pupils. The school law-
gives to the district board the^right to
authorize or.drder the suspension or expulsion frbni the school of any pupil
guilty of gr$ss misdemeanor or persistent disobedience.". In,such cases the
teacher has the authority to suspend a
pupil temporarily • until the board can
take action on the matter. The su-1
preme court has held that it is not necessary that'a pupil be guilty of a criminal act before he can be suspended or
expelled from? school. Ke must be
guilty pf some .malicious" or wilful act
of detriment to the school and the misconduct must be gross, something more
than a petty or trivial offense against'
the rules, or he must be persistent in
his disobedience "of the proper and reasonable rules and regulations of the
school. 'A. pupil cannot he expelled for
act, no matter how negligent, if it is
hot ,wilful or malicious." "    .
Coming Back to You.
Whenever you send a dollar to a big
mail order house a hundred or two miles-
away you want to kiss it good-bye, for
your pocket will probably never see
that dollar again.
True, you will get something in exchange for your dollar, and you may
hug yourself with the belief that you
really have something. .     .
But what is its quality and what has
it cost you?
If it is up to the standard of goods
sold every day by your home merchants
you may have paid as much," or even
more, than the home man would have
charged you.
And there is a-dollar less in your
community.
In addition to that you have jpaid the
charges on your bank draft or money
order, you have paid the freight on the
article, and you have spent a week: or
so wondering "why in Heck" it didn't
come.
But then again, the price may have
been a few cents below what the home
man charged, and so also may have
been the quality.
Those mail order catalogues are attractive to look at. So also is a honey
bee—but it has a mighty sharp sting.
Now if you have been in the habit of
sending your money away to other
points suppose you try and see if you
can't do just as well in your own community. You will save time, get as
much for your money (quality considered), and will feel a lot better over-patronizing home industries.""
* And besides, that dollar may find its
way back to you.
Governor's Proclamation.
In all the years since eighteen hundred seve,nty-six there ,has been no
greater reason for giving thanks to Almighty God than in this year .nineteen
hundred fourteen. The United States
is at peace with all the nations of the
earth. The stars and stripes symbolize
to all the world, "life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness.' '• Sunshine, rain
and toil have given us an abundance of
the good things of life. Our glorious
nation has gone forward unswervingly
towards the goal of civic justice and
civic righteousness. We, the people of
Michigan, are happy-in joining every
other state in reverent and hearty
thanksgiving.
Therefore, I, Woodbridge N. Ferris,
Governor of the State of Michigan, do
hereby join the President of the United
States in designating Thursday, the
26th of November, as a day for all the
people of this commonwealth to celebrate in thanksgiving and prayer.
Hoof and Mouth Disease.
Perhaps no one subject has received
so much attention during the past few
weeks as the foot and mouth" disease
among live stock. Fourteen states
have- been quarantined. On another
page of The Observer will be found an
article on the subject* prepared by the
United States Department of Agriculture. We make room for it this week
because of its importance,- coming as
it does from an official source."

test and been approved for more than
forty years.   Obtainable every where.
