Communication
Contrary to the predictions of some o

ed a perfect day for the annual Picnic of
Elmore, and those who attended pronounce
an enjoyable time.
What a pity that just for the lack of a
little vim on the part of the one who was
to inform the teachers several of the schools
in town we're deprived of this one day Of
recreation during the school year Of the
schools that were represented one was in
formed Friday morning, two or three the
day previous and the Others by inquiring
found out in sufficient time for little prep
aration. Even the Superintendent was IN
able to learn the exact day, until late.
This is a town picnic, remember, are such
proce dings fair to the members OF our
town schools? | would merely suggest that
if the town officials are too busy to make
plans and circulate them concerning this
day, why not at our next town meeting
elect some one purpOsely to manage the
preparations OF Picnic Das
