E TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 192$ DEATH TAKES JUSTICE OF TSTAT HIGH COURT SUELYAT ADRDIAN JHN E. BIRD PASSES AAY; AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS WEAKENS REISTANCE WAS PROMINENT IN STATE Jurst Stricken Unexpectedly, 1octors Say Deathi Caused By Suddei Heart Attack (By Associated Press.) ADRIAN, Feb. 10.-John E. Bird, justice of the Michigan supreme court, former chief justice and former at- torney general of Michigan, died early today at his home in Adrian. Justice Bird's death was sudden and was caused by a heart attack, his physician, Dr. 0. Whitney, reported. He had been undergoing treatment for several weeks and had not been feel- ing well, but was able to be at his law office here every day. Death came at 12:45 o'clock. Justice Bird maintained an office in Adrian in partnership with Judge J. N, Sampson of the Lenawee circuit court. Although the two carried on no active extral egal duties, theyj maintained the office as a place to carry on their regular activities, and Justice Bird, whenever. he was not in Lansing, was seen daily in his Adrian office. The justice is iurvived by his widow and three children, Everett Bird of Detroit, Maj. Bird, asistant prosecut- ing attorney of Lenawee county, and Miss Gertrude Bird, at home. Funeral arrangements were to be made later today. Elected Three Times John E. Bird was one of the few chiefs of the state's department of justice to be three times elected at- torney general of Michigan. He came to that office in 1904, while engaged in private practice in Lenawee county, and was re-elected in 1906 and in 1908. It was while serving his third term that he was appointed to the state su- preme bench by Gov. Fred M. Warner to fill the unexpired term of Justice Robert Montgomery, who resigned. This wa's in the summer of 1910 and the appointment was confirmed at the polls the following November. He was re-elected for the full eight-year term at the spring election of 1911 and again re-elected in 1919. Served Convention The constitutional convention of 1908 occurred during Bird's term as attorney general and upon him de- volved the task of fitting many of the laws of the succeeding sessions ofthe legislature to the new constitutional provision's. His tservices to the state covered the period in the history of Michigan when the state undertook to deal with the railroad corporations. FORESTERS ADOPT CRUISING jJACKET The foresters of the School of For- estry and Conservation have adopted "a uniform cruising jacket as the of- " ficial emblem of their school. These jackets will be worn in addition to the red hats now in use. Finding that the hat alone was in- adequate, the Forestry club some time ago decided on the wearing of jackets, forest service green in color, to offer a contrast to the hat. The green is really a dark olive drab. The color chosen is the official col- or of the UnitedStates forest service which gathers large recruits from among Michigan graduates. In addi- tion to the jacket, an official design of a two-bladed .axe on a yellow and blue "M" will be worn over the heart. The coat as it stands has 16 pockets, all designed to meet the specific needs of foresters. The shoulders and sleeves of the jacket are reenforced by double thickness, both for warmth and waterproofness. The pockets are of every shape, from little ones to ac- commodate pencils to big ones large enough to carry tally-whackers, note-I books, axes, and other implements which foresters use. The material used in its construction has been waterproofed according to govern- ment specifications. The dark-gray forest green otfers a decided contrast to the flaming red of their forester's little felt hats. MICHIGAN ALUMNUS HAS NEW ASSISTANT EDITOR: Mrs. Helen H.
