ticket are strongly aTainst /, the

The members OF that ticket are

Mrs. Wilson. before her marriage,

schools, She is the mother Of sew
eral fatherless children and their
welfare, a. we'll as her practical
experience. give her deep interest
in the local schools. Mrs. Wilson
has ability, Is alive and awake and
she deeply resents the humiliation
of some of the older and more
prominent educators on the educa-
tional staff. It Is safe bet that
Mrs. Wilson will have neither sym
patty nor tolerance for the auto
cratic and extraya CANT methods OF
| the blighting Bentley. You will make
no mistake by voting for Mrs,
Wilson. Remember that, dear old
voter and patron Of the schools.
| Mrs. F. G. German. sometimes
designated as Elizabeth Sophie
Brown German, filed for place
as lone, single and independent
candidate. After due elaboration.
Mrs. German has decided to with.
draw her filing. She authorizes the
Great Familss Journal to say that
she stands strongly for the cleo
ton of iMessrs. ,Clough and Coole
and Mrs. Carrie r. Wilson. Mrs
German had no personal desire to
serve on the board, but she filed
as a duty, so. that opposition to the
present administration might NOT
go by default.
William DonaIdeon. young man
residing on Duluth Heights, was the
first to file. # H. safe to say that
after the votes are counted. he will
appreciate the saying. THE lion
stalks alone.
