Communication
Editor Review:
Dear Sir: The Rev. t'has. A. Logue having given publicity through the local press to his charges against the I Board of Education for "ignorance of the State Law with regard to religious exercises in the school" and "prohibit¬ ing dancing at receptions" etc., it seems proper that the po.sition of the Board should be made ki.owii through the same channels.
It is impossible to fully reiily to Fath¬ er Logue without taking considerable space and the Board of Education is exceedingly reluctant to enter a news¬ paper controversy. However, with the assurance that this will be the only communication from us on the subject we beg your indulgence.
Father Logue charges the Board with ignorance of the State Law in the mat¬ ter of religious exercises V-ecause of some facetious reply made by Trustee Eldridge at the meeting Tue.sday night- Let me say the Board is not only not ignorant ofthe law, but on account of Father Logue's charges two years ago had taken the matter up wtih the State department and made themselves famil¬ iar not only with the law but with de¬ cisions of the department, the opiijion of the attorney general, and the prac¬ tise in other schools under similiar Con¬ ditions and allowed tbe chapel exercis¬ es to be continued preliminary   to   the
