It will only be short time now un-
til the annual school election will be
held. This year there is to be elected
president to succeed George H. Bell
who declines to serve another term,
if the Post is correctly informed. Al
ready we have heard of two candidates
for the position. These are Dr.. J. Z.
Riddle and Harry H. French. The
people will make no mistake in select
ing either of these gentlemen as both
are highly competent to fill the posi-
ton. The Post is informed that Dr.
Riddle has not only taught school, but
has served several terms on school
board in Kansas, where they have m
excellent school system.
