In some cases not, a dozen voters ap peared a t the meetings at which were elected members of boards of educa tion, and appropriations were passed for conducting the school business during the year. This lack of interest may be as sumed to be due to confidence in the few who from year to year accept the responsibility of managem ent of pub- lis school affairs. W hether it is for the best interests of the districts or not is an open question.
