THE NEW SCHOOL HOUSE.

Whether or not the school district
shall replace the inadequate and I'M
slightly buildings We now have by a
building commensurate with our
needs, and creditable to the town, now
depends upon the vote of the people.
The requisite petition has been re-
ceived by the board, and an election
ordered for Tuesday the 18th of April.
We think the bonds should carry by a
large majority. If there is one thing
that lola needs above another, both
for her good name and her own well
fare. it is a new school house. The old
one has served its purpose, but the
town has out-grown it. Besides it is
most uncomfortable, unhealthful and
dangerous. The additional tax, which
is a vague bugbear to many, will be so
light as scarcely to be felt. Upon this
point we shall say more next week.
