The mass meeting in the interest
of the male school held at the Court.
.house last Friday night was much
better attended than we expected
under the circumstances of such in
clement weather. The whole matter
of devising plan, soliciting subscrip-
tions, etc., was turned over to a COM
mittee consisting of Messrs. F. l..
Leeper, r. H. Mason, J. W. Irwin,
d. B. Carson, w. S. Lively, John
Beech, ]. e. Jones and r. NJ. Realms.
The committee held meeting ON
Saturday morning and agreed upon a
plan, which they have set forth in a
circular, copy of which will be fur
nished to every citizen interested in
the project. The matter is now be-
fore our people in IA practical form,
and every citizen will be given an
opportunity to say how much he
wants the school. Our people should
feel sufficient interest in the towns
progress not to let the scheme fall
through. The amount could be rails
ed without straining any one individ-
ual, and we earnestly hope it will be
done.
