We do not know whether Mr. Raker can be induced to take the office for another term, as fie is already very busy, but it surely would be to the ad vantage of the district if so, as he has done much good work as a member of the Board of Education, and from his experience on tiie Board is now even better qualified for the duties of the office.

IVe Are Pleased to Present to More Than 3 0 ,0 0 0 Yards “Made-in-America Our Public oj New Silks” American initiative, energy, skill and artistic ability have in no instance forged more n o t a b l y to the front, under the conditions produced by the European war, than in the manu facture of Silks. v Encouraging this splendid industry in our own country, with the employment it gives not only to the weavers, the dyers, the finishers, but to all those who make machinery and supplies for Silk mills, will rapidly put it in a position where it will he serene in the face of any foreign competition. G..i present collection of Silks from American looms is remarkable—fascinating, inspir ing. Our makers have revived many of the fine old-f\ hiontd N Iks, such as the grosgrain and the failles, and have evolved such quaint, ne'1 fabrics as the ‘‘Minuet'’ and the ‘‘M ay flower’’ Silks, which are so appropriate for the new-old fashions of toc’.ay.
