Tho Welssport School Hoard Is guilty ot a shameful act In rejecting Miss Amanda L Albright for tho primary school, and going outsldo oftho limits oflhe county to biro one for the samo school. Prof. Snyder rccom mends Miss Albright as being ono of the best members of the teachtcs class. Miss Albright taught tha school last term. The satisfaction ehu gnvo was ample, and that should recommend an old teacher for reui. polatuicnt. What the animus In the cuo Is wo do not know, but It appears to us that It Is not ol that satisfying kind which the pco- plo of Wclsfport,ln their intelligent capacity would ask for. Tho teacher that Is appoint ed may bo a good and ablo one, but never, thcless wo think that homo talent should havo the first chance as long as It Is of that kind which gives cntlro satisfaction, Oross Injustlco was perpetrated In this case, and wo are only too torn- for It. Taklni: nil lu all, Miss Albnglit should have had the school, from tho fact that she gavo entire satisfaction and that hor lather Is ono of th e heaviest taxpayers lu tho borough of Weiss puri.
