Having A Good Time.
La6t Monday the old and capacious!
school house in district No. 33, was filled
by a motly crowd to witness the school
board pull off the annual school election,
as there are visually lively times on such
occasions, and not infrequently a wild
and violent display of Athletics, accom
panied by adjectheeof no uncertain
meaning. Aside from these amusements
there is much more interest taken in
school election than there is in that of
county or etate, as the position of sctrool
officer is much sought after, being con
sidered as far above the common county
officer us the tower of Piea is above a
bole in the gr und. The people have
trood reasons for taking a livtly interest
in their school as it has turned out some
of the best teachers out of school, all of
which no doubt tends o equip the em
bryo American citizen to make a success
in the world.
, Promptly at 2 p. m. the board called
order. The all important business of
the day was electing one director and
one school clerk for ti e ensuing year.
The clerk read some instructions from
the county superintendent to procedure
in the election, and the board was unani
mous in the opinion that they could
make neither head, nor tail to them.
After some complimentary remarks
about a legislature making laws that
none could understand two heavy-weight
republicans ere pitted against each
other for director.and this fairly brought
up the question of who were legal voters.

observations was the the result, and the
board was all at sea as to what was best
to do.
It waa all settled off hand by a much
bewhiskered and wild looking individual
from Sleepy Hollow, who juat then
awoke. After adjusting several red
handkerchiefs about his throat, he de
clared he had Been Governor Geer about
it and that no man could vote who waa
not a father and forthwith challenged
several dudeB from Portland, who hap
pened to be present. After much delib
eration the board decided that it was
most likely all present were fathers and
that it would entail much expense on
the district to hire detectives to find out
who were not fathers. It was then put
to a vote and all were Batisfied with the
ruling. '1 he board was sustained, and
du lea and all were permitted to vote,
whereupon ballots were cast for one
director, and as usual in such cases one
won and the other lost.
Next the old clerk was turned down
by the handkerchief clan for one of
their own ilk, one whose social standing
in the district could not be called in
question. The result on this vote being
very close, and several little girls voting,
the bandanna men won out amid thun
ders of applause, this being the much
coveted position as giving tone to the
new administration and fairly launching
the district on that high moral wave,
t has vainly sought for these many
weary yeara. Brotherly love character
ized the men present at the meeting, the
ladies kissed and smiled, the knights of
the handkerchief gave several knowing
winks, and one or two of the boldest
gve several Indian war whoops, as they
disappeared in the woods.
