We should not only be proud OF the
school, but also proud Of our Senator
and our Representative, Hon. Walter
Price and E. ID. Cavett. They both
worked faithful to have this school es-
tablished in the county. They should
be remembered in their aspirations for
leadership.
Now word as to the selection of
trustees for the school. We think that
each supervisors district should be en-
titled to one trustee, ard he should be
man with some public spirit about
him and one who will take some inter
est in the school. T. ii. II.
