Boardman people are very hard to please and although there has been some criti cism it is to be expected, for no one in a public position escapes un scathed; but on the whole, looking from the angle of a year's viewpoint, the school has done well scholastic ally, discipline has been excellent, the programs have been very good; in fact, we have no cause for com plaint. Let us as a community forget our petty grievances for after all they are trivial, and give Mr. Kelly and his teachers our whole hearted support next September that the com-' nig year may surpass the one just past.
