 Members of the Salem Lutheran church will attend the annual par ish birthday party to be held to- morrow night at 8 o'clock in the church. A varied entertainment pro- gram has been arranged, and re- treatments will be served. The Ladies' Aid Society is sponsoring the affair.
 As far as leaders of the groups protesting the closing of the Mill vile and Pond Hill schools now, no decision as & result of an ir1- vestigation of conditions here by a state school official has been arrived at yet, it was learned today.
 The issue is expected to produce plenty of action at the October meeting of the local board of edu- cation, to be held this afternoon at o'clock in the high school.
 It is expected the protesting groups will be represented at the session, and reports indicate these groups and the board of education are primed for action so it may be a torrid session.
 It has been reported some of the board members have resented some of the remarks made against them at meetings of the protest group and a verbal battle may result today.
 The board refused an invitation to attend one of the protest meet ings so the protesting groups prob ably will be well represented at the board session.
 It will be surprising if the board reverses its action on the closing of the schools.
 Superintendent of Scholos Harold E. Chittenden is expected to report on attendance at schools, and to make his monthly financial report. Sum Raised
