thata lot of men have got-ten together,
who rely upon their imaginations and?
their ambitions for their talk. They"
do not know what the are talking
about, or for what they are talking.
To those who do know the facts their
reported public conversations are fun-
uy. The sooner that the public wakes
up to the situation that its school an-
thorities in a certain governing ’body
are in need of plain information before
they give so much advice the better
for us all around. One way to avoid
ridicule is, to become sensible. The
citizens of Connecticut have a world‘
wide reputation for good sense. They,
have also a reputation for wit. it might
be well for these school governors to
be sensible lest they become the butt
of the wit of their neighbors.

ignorance by condemning unheard the
