IN. o. States.1

On the recommendation of Hon.
Will A. Strong, the Superintendent
of Public Education has appointed
Mrs. Kelley public school director
in Winn parish. This is certainly a
novel appointment in Louisiana, but
we trust it will be q precedent for fu-
ture appointments to snch positions.
We have an unconquerable repug-
nance to the idea of women dabbling
in politics and voting in elections.
But there is no reason why intelli-
gent and educated ladies should mol
fill such places as that to which Mrs.
Kelley has been appointed. We hope
to see in future the educated and
thinking women of Louisiana recog.
nized in similar appointments in the
future. Right here in New Orleans
there is q number of accomplished
women of vigorous thinking minds
who would make excellent public
school directors, and the appoint
ment of a few of them on our city
board would be wise measure.
