The School Board last Saturday
leased a school house from Rich Val.
ley township, and had it placed west
of our building on the school grounds.
The town boards agreed upon an annu-
al rental of $40 and insurance, with the
understanding that the building be re-
turned to Rich Valley in one year if
the board of that town requested it.
While the annual rent and insurance
will be about $40 per year greater than
the interest upon the $500 bonds voted,
it may in the end be best for the town,
doing away as it does with the bonds.
Should the building not be needed at
the end of one year it can be returned
We would like to have our subscri-
bers understand that the editor of this
paper has to eat il he doesn't drink
much. We know that the last two
years have been hard ones. We know
that there are great many of our sub
scrlbers who are unable to pay us. We
don't ask any one to pay us who will
have to deny themselves the necessaries
of life to do so. But there are those
who can pay us little of something if
they choose. Those who can pay us a
little would make us perfectly happy
by doing so. Some of the things that
we would eat il our subscribers would
only help as to, are eggs, chickens, po-
tatoes, onions and few other farm
vegetables. Ii any of our subscribers
have any of this kind of truck going to
waste around their houses, we wish
they would bring them in.
