The state legal department holds
that the important thing about the
new law requiring school district of
fees to publish an annual report is not
that the report be published within
twenty days after the close of the ifs
cal year" but that the report be pub
lished. Officers are not relieved OF
the duty of having the publication
made because of inability to ave 1t
done within the time required by the
law. If there are any who have wholly
neglected their duty there is still time.
Newspaper men are blamed for a
number of things they can't help
such as using partially in mentioning
visitors, giving news about some folks
and leaving others out. etc, says an eX-
change. He simply prints what he can
find. Some people inform him about
such things and others do not. An
editor cannot be expected to know the
name and residence of all your aunts,
uncles and cousins and their brother
even if you should see them get off
and on the train. Tell us about it
it's news that makes the newspaper,
and every man, woman and child can,
if they will, furnish news.
