The annual school meeting will be held in tbe school house on Toesday evening at 7:30. It is to be hoped that a few more than generally attend this meeting will be present to show their interest in matters educational in our community. The usual attend¬ ance is seven or eight—a crowd when there has happened to be nine. Noth¬ ing more vital than the education of our children affects this community. We doubt very much if many of our citizens know the first thing about our local school. The school meeting is the place of practical patriotism on Tuesday night. The women have aa much right and rights attthese school meetings as the men, providing that Wltb tbe men they are property bolders or have cbildren attending achool.
