MEMBER OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE
Yet Town Counsel T. J. Kelley is AL legged to Have Prepared Petition For Removal

Professional ethics received a se we're bump after the school committee meeting last Wednesday evening, Town Counsel T. P. Kelley is a member of the town school committee and as such is it's legal advisor The policy of the school committee is to stand back of the teachers, at least until their work and discipline have been proved to be worthy of censure The school committee at the present time is in the position of a judicial tri- bunal awaiting the report concerning the condition of affairs at Miss Thomas school at South Windham. After Wednesday evenings session of the committee meeting it came out that it was Town Counsel Kelley who prepared the petition of protest against Miss Thomas being retained. The town counsers action is being sharply criticised as it places Attorney Kelley in the partial attitude. at least, of a prosecutor when he should have been neutral so he could have legally advised the school committee without prejudice
