The relators appealed.\nThe information was based upon the unconstitutionality of the amendment of the School law of June 22, 1917, (Laws of 1917, p. 737,) and one of the pleas was based upon an act \u201cto legalize the organization of certain high school districts,\u201d adopted in 1919, (Laws of 1919, p. 907.) We have held that the latter act is effective to make valid the organization of this district, in the case of People v. Edwards, 290 Ill. 464.\nThe judgment of the circuit court is affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.",
