You will remember a bill was passed by the last Legislature increasing the hoard from seven to nine. The only explanation given by those responsible for this new act was that they wanted to place - two women on the board, bat as the term of two members had expired the reasoniag has never been very clear. However," the two members whose time had expired, Mr. W. H. Long and-. Dr. E. J. Tucker, were reelected and two new members, Mrs. A. S. deVlaming and Mrs. A. M. Burns were named to :omplete the board. Tfie town is looking to these new members to improve the school in ?rn-inoiafji"?AnH ftuwpoiallv fin?w# lesire at this time to suggest that a good place to begin would be on the grounds.
