The annual school meeting for the
Red Wing district will be held in room
A. of the Central School building on
Saturday, October 9TH, at ~ o'clock
Pm. At this meeting the members of
the Board of Education are elected, and
the matter is of sufficient Importance to
call forth a full attendance. At a re-
cent session of the legislature of this
State a law was passed, comforting upon
women the right to vote at these cleo
tons and making them eligible to posi-
tons on the schoo! boards, and as there
is no doubt that women are fully as
much interested in school matters as
men, and that they are as competent as
and frequently more so than men to fill
positions of this character, it IS hoped
that they will deem it their duty to at
tend this meeting. True, they may not
now be prepared to take an active part,
but they can hardly hope to become
prepared to discharge this duty if they
continue to refuse to come forward and
learn by experience and observation
what is to be done. We believe that
the future advancement of the educa-
tional interests of this country depends
largely upon the women of the country,
and are, therefore, earnest in soliciting
them to come out and assume leading
part in the management of a duty
which seems to be appropriately lamost
wholly within their sphere Of action.
