IL is desirable that some woman
should be on our school board It
seems TO me that IL would be impos-
sible to get any one more interested
in the matters that come up before a
school board than one Of the mothers,
ard on that principle. as well as on
the principle OF utness, I think thar
at least one woman should be placed
on the school board and I shall will
lrgiy support any woman that the
1vcmen agree on You mention Mrs.
Critchett. and 7 assure you that she
