many years by a number OF very
prominent members Of the board.
President Edward Rogers. who is a
candidate 10 succeed himself frOE
Washington District, Is member who
has been conspicuous for most faith
full and intelligent service. Mr..
Rogers has served for sixteen years
on this board and has given to its
work much earnest thought and highly
valuable effort. \ community Is for
tunate when it is able TO secure tho
services Of such man. During Mr..
Rogers term of service on the board
the present high school building was
erected and equipped; the manual
training departments Of the high
school and the grade schools have
been established; the teaching OF art
and domestic science has been intro
duced; the public library building has
been erected and extensive additions
70 the library plant. These are few
of the things to the credit OF the Board
Of Education during the past ten or
twelve years that indicate the progress
siye spirit that prevails generally in
he membership Of the board. and The
Intclligencer believes that it can justly
say that a considerable part of the
credit for these achievements Is due
: TO Mr.. Rogers.
Of other members Of the board who
have served long and faithfully we
mickt mention Mr.. Paul O. Reymann,
Of Union District: DR.. Z. l.. Arm
brccht, OF Richie District; Mr.. ]. a.
Miller. of Center District. and Dr..
Robert !. Reed. Of Clay District. The
city has been fortunate in the services
Of these men, and we trust that all OF
them who aspire to reelection from
time to time will continue to receive
evidences Of public confidence.

A NEW CARBON

The report Of Charles Z. Hughes on
the air craft scandal is not to be given
out until after the election. The re-
port has been finished. II IS under
stood that it presents some very seri'
Gus facts. and criminal prosecutions
may result from it. For their own
reasons the authorities at Washington
have decided to hold this from the
voters Of the country until after next
Tuesday, adding one more to the
record of petty partisan performances
By Mr.. Wilson'S administration.
Is II any wonder. in the light Of dis
closures like this. that people have be-
gun TO warer and 10 have their doubts.
