FOR SCHOOL BOARD
Two Members to Be Chosen at
the Election to Be Held
Next Month.
CANDIDATES ARE BEING DISCUSSED
Mr.. Marshall Declines to Stand
for Another
Term.

The discussion of candidates for
the vacancies in the board of educa-
ton which the public will be called
upon to fill at the school election
next month is already being taken
up.
The present members whose terms
will expire are President c. b. Mar
shall and c. Ill. Seidel, the last named
of whom was elected last summer to
fill out a short term.
There is general regret that Mr..
Marshall has declined to be n candi-
date for reelection. Mr.. Marshall has
been connected with the board for
several terms, and has always guard
ed the interests of the public schools
ably and with zeal lie now feels
that private affairs demand his entire
time and will not permit his serving
longer.
Should Return Mr.. SeideI.
There is a strong feeling that Mr..
Seidel should be returned to the of
flee. his term of office having demon
strated that he is desirable man in
the place.
For the other vacancy J. w. Welch
has been mentioned as an acceptable
candidate. and others will no doubt
come forward as the date of the cleo
ton approaches.

around inc.
[ could see no opening, not even d
hole large enough to put finger
through. What, then, was the pur-
pose of the stairs? / sat down on the
bottom step and tried to think. I had
heard and read all kinds of treasure
islands, but could recall no mention
of any where time had been spent in
hewing stone steps that led to nowhere.
It might be that the pit was used for
storing goods by the pirates of the
coast, and at this time happened to be
empty. The glimmer of hope l had
felt when [ discovered the stairs now
left me, and my hunger came back
with renewed pangs.
What miserable fate! To die there
alone, leaving no word OF sign that
could ever reach my friends to tell
them of my unhappy end!
It was hard to die SO. No one to
care for me i'll my last moments; no
smooth pillow for my weary head when
the madness OF fever was upon me!
Nothing but stone-stone-stone!
