Comment Useless.

We copy the following produc-
ton from last Saturdays Gilmore
County Republican. For the en-
lightenment Of the people Of this
school district, who know the true
situation to dot, comment by the
BULLETIN is entirely unnecessary
and as no real friend of our public
school and the town desire the out
side world to know the true inward
ness of the affair, we simply repro
duce the Republicans defense of
two of the school trustees, at the
same time regretting that our con-
temporary did not allude to the
"raise" in salary of the new prin-
cipal:

secretary of the board Mr.. Clark informs us that
there was no disposition to work injury to our
present. principal, In fact none but the most kindly
remarks were made. He stated Mr.. Mullins made no
application for the school another year. No board
could be selected that would please everybody in
choosing teachers and the public can reasonably
form other conclusion than that the board exer-
csed their best Judgment in selecting the teachers
for the ensuing year.

great part OF yesterday at the opera
house at Lake Linden. Although the
meetings were not very largely attended

OF the State institution, and he gave sew
eral talks OF interest. The general dis
cussion formed the greater part oil the
proceedings and was participated in by
nearly all the members present. Mr..
Paton's talk on Fertilizer" led TO some
discussion and DIR. Fishers
address on "Milk" was also full OF good
and interesting points. The talks were

The Widely Heralded
Ice Contest Comes
to Grief.
Thompson Too Premature.
Gilmore starts ON the shot
Race Declared on.

The first race of the season which was
to have occurred at the Skating Pavilion
last evening did not come off owing 10
some trouble in starting the two skaters.
Thompson skated an exhibition mile liz
1927.
The trouble seems to have been simply
a mistake in the signals OF the starter.
The two men were placed on opposite
sides Of the rink and when the starter
said get ready" Thompson started
but not hearing the pistol shot came
back just as the gun was fired. Gilmore
started with the gun and when he got
around to Thompson's side OF the rink,
the latter started with him. but they
had not got around once when they ran
into the crowd and there came near be-
ing a row between the two racers, when
Manager Schroeder interfered and cleared
the ice.
There was some little excitement for
time. when 1t was decided to start the
men oyer again, but Gilmore refused to
skate again, although Thompson was
willing to start over.
Gilmore claims that he was stopped
by some OF Thompson's friends and that
Thompson gave him a black eye, and
that he was not getting square" treat
ment. while Thompson says he did not
lay hands on him. At any rate there
was no race and the relative ability OF
the two men is still INFESTED. although
it is probable that race may yet be ar
ranged.
There was very large attendance as
the ice was in fine shape. At the rink |

game OF hockey, between two teams

game here. The rink will be open every
