Several candidates for justice of the peace and applicants for notarial commissions appear to be under the impression that George w.

In the case of the justices, the applications are from candidates who were elected at the recent general election, but for some cause failed to qualify, and in order to secure their office they must ob- tain commissions iron, the governor Governor Pindall has made about 15 such appointments
 The application for an appointment of this character must be accompa- nied by $1 for the issuance of the commission

Cultivate Social Conscience

The board of health and the
board Of education touch The
householder so nearly that their
every demand is to her interest.
She must see what is back of
their rules and regulations; she
must look upon compulsory edu-
cation as the bulwark OF her
child's protection and upon the
State as the guardian of her
children's opportunities.
We can find faults everywhere
if we look for them, and we
should look, if we have the de-
sire to better things by first find
ing out what is wrong; but if
purely negative non-consUuctive
criticism is al we have TO offer.
