TO DISCUSS
NEW SUPl‘. 0F
SCHOOLS HERE
Several Applicants In-
' terviewed— P l a n s
To Buchanan
A special meeting of the Board of
Education will be held some night
this week to consider a. number of
applications for the office of super-
intcndent of schools. it was an-
nounced today by Douglas 1-3. Nash.
chairman of the School Board. It is
exircrnely unlikely. however. that
final choice will be made at the spe-
cial meeting.
Mr. Nash said that several appli-
cants for the omico of superintend-
ent of schools had personally called
upon him. He stated that most of
the applicants were from smaller
towns and cities. Other members or
the Board of Educ:.tion have also
had personal interviews with appli-
cents.
The date for the special meeting
had not been decided. but it will
probably be during the latter part
of next week.
The omen of superintendent 0:
schools will be vacant after June lst
because the Board of Education rc-
fused to renew the » contract of
George V. Buchanan, the, present
head of tho local school system.
Plans for a testimonial dinner to
Superintendent Buchanan are still in
the process of formation. It is un-
derstood that friends and sympa-
thizers of Mr. Buchanan will hold
the dinner in the near future.

Instinctively
we recognize the beauty and the inspiration of growing

Yet we are prone to forget that these blessings.
originally ours by the bounty of God, are preserved to us
only by the ind

That our love of nature

FRANCIS A. PALLOTTI. Secretary.
Perhaps the most important of
provides for the appointment of the
state's attorneys by the governor in-
stead of by the judges of the su-
perior court. :1 systczn somewhat
similar-to that under which federal
district attorneys are appointed by
the President.
In is proposed in legislation un-
der consideration to require select-
men to change the town jury lists
annually. Men who had been on the
jury list one year would not be put
on the jury list again during the
next five years. This, it is argued.
would Insure an entirely new list of
jurors for the county every year,
with the probable result that a
small percentage would haxo a
chance to become fixtures.
