The BOARD
RaBey Praises work Of
Retiring Member

A call meeting Of the board Of edu-
cation was held in the Office Of VIII
liam Stacey Monday afternoon. The
monthly payroll Of teachers was al
lowed. supt. Wilson, retiring from
the board as member and president,
made some very appropriate sugges-
tions bearing on the general interest
OF the city schools. Mr. Wilson has
been a member Of the board for thirty.
one months. During that time he has
failed to attend very few meetings and
has never failed to attend meeting
when In town except when sick.
AT the time Of his becoming a mem
Der Of the board the affairs Of the
school started under a new regime in
the state with new board and a new
superintendent There were many
questions to be settled and much need
OF organization. The new board met
every phase Of the difficulties frankly,
strenuously ana conscientiously. Mr..
Wilson ais member has always been
ready to take the initiative tn all for
war movements and has stood Arm
IN his convictions Of duty He has
been liberal in his attitude yet al.
ways conservative i'd every proposed
measure.
During these months chickasha has
completed her High school building
and equipped 1t FOR manual and domes-
TITS arts. physical and biological sell
ence experiments, and in the literary
department she has corps Of teach
ers equal to the best III The state. The
grades have moved zip in keeping with
the advance in the High school The
buildings have been modernized and
made sanitary These things have
come 20 pass because OF the liberal
business views Of the men composing
the board Of education, because Of the
Harmonious actions and purposes Of
the board supplementing the plans and
purposes Of the superintendent In all
these advancements supt, Wilson has
always stood for the things that mark
progress. 10 be an active member Of
an aggressive board Is no sinecure but
in this he has made good. We be-
speak for him IN the new field Of ardu-
Gus labor such an administration OF

bring great credit to himself as well
as pleasure to his friends in his home
