persons name upon their ballots,
then when the score is tallied if
it is found that said individual
is f'.mong the throe who shall have
received the highest number of
votes cast, that person will then
bo a member of the Palmer School
Board, — Campaigns and petitions
do not affect eligibility.
It Is hoped that in this coming
school election your patriotism
will reach beyond prejudice and
that you will ignore politics,
geographical location and length
of residence, in your attempt to
select wise and just men. You
need a School Board that will
yearn and strive for the educa
tional welfare of every child.
All other motives arc dross,
I urge you to come to the election
next Monday and vote your convict
ion, not the wish of some friend,
nor the prejudice of some agitator.
Thus alone you can koep your -
school free from Ouilo and un
worthy motives.

SCHQOL BAND
that ho docs not wish to play tho
instrument ho may return it at
that time.
Clarinents, cornets or trumpets,
and trombones arc especially de
dira'ole for a regular band, A cer
tain number of saxophones -- Eb
Alto or Bb tenor -- may be used,
and also alto horns, baritone and
bass horns and drums, If there
are these who to play string
instruments — violins or guitars
-- or accordions or other orchest
ral instrunons, we shall provide
an organization in which they can
take part, too. X should like to
talk with anyone who is considering
buying as instrument, in order '
that he will be sure to get one
well suited to tho needs of the
organization and to him.
I an sure there must be plenty
of talent for a band in the com
munity. I believe band work is
one of the finest thin0s in which
a boy or girl can participate.
It brings real, lasting pleasure
now and in the future. It teaches
a person the art of working with
others to produce worth while re
sults. I had excellent response
in organizing a band in the com
munity in which I worked last year
and I see no reason why results
should not be as good here.
