THE SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION
Editor e. Paso Herald:
There seems TO be a growing interest
IN the election TO be held on the 9Th
day OF April for members of the school
board, and this interest is very COM
mendahle. for the people of El Paso are
entitled to the best in every line of en-
deavor and civic Improvement. and
there is naturally a desire 10 select the
best material obtainable for school di-
rectOrs-
The average business man feels that
in an emergency he is capable Of fiji
ing such a position and thai while
there IS no compensation. there is
glory enough for all. and there is
never any difficulty in having a suf-
Itcient number from which 10 make
the selection.
It is related OF an old negro. who
thought he had a cali to preach that.
IN a vision, he saw in large type the
letters &C. p C." which he i-nterureted

cred that he had made q mistake and
that a correct Interpretation would

plication can be made Of this story in

tons most to lie desired. The welfare
of our boys and girls is the
issue, and the woman candidate for
one OF the places is said to possess all
these qualifications i'm an eminent de-
gree; and. that being true. there is no
reason why she should not make one
Of he most valuable members on the
