HER MERRY CHRISTMAS.

She wandered down Rivington street
crying softly. She was hungry. and IL
seemed more pitiful for her TO be hungry
on Christmas eve than il was for the
dozens of other children on Rivington
street to be hungry. The year before she
had not only not been hungry, butshe bad
had Christmas tree. The other children
had always been more or less hungry
and they had never had a Christmas tree.
She shuffled her partly bare feet along
on the icy sidewalk. Snow had frozen

shoes Her feet were very cold. bat shs

A comfortably dressed stout woman
stopped her. The woman was probably
a shopkeeper's wife, and had heart
more or less kind. She had intended ia

she was good girl and gave her sems

angry, and she answered her sauciiy.
The comfortable woman turned away

Her eyes closed. Her shivers ceased.
She lay very still She was asleep. She
did not move again until red ray from
the crisp winter sunrise touched her
face.
Then she sat up and gazed solemniy

expression became happy one. She

THE SCHOOL QUESTION

some time ago a meeting Of the citizens
II school district No. was held TO con-
slider ways and means to procure funds
Tor the erection Of new school house.
The urgency Of the immediate erection Of
building for educational purposes was
especially dwelt upon. and the sense Of
the meeting was that an immediate tax of
] per cent be levied for the purpose of
raising sufficient funds for the erection
aud maintaining Of schools. An election
was held and the tax proposition was
carried almost unanimously. Since the
election meeting Of the directors has
been held and plans accepted for build
ing, but this j. all the action the board
has taken. School opened last Monday
aud 200 more pupils applied for admission
than could be accommodated. The citi-
zeus are justly indignant at the want Of
action on the part Of the directors and a
great deal Of comment is being made of a
not very complimentary nature 20 the
board. a difference seems to exist be-
tween the members Of the board over the
proper location OF the school. one

another is holding out for the Lake
Padden addition and the remaining mem
Der for some point nearer the center Of
the city. The general desire Of the citi-
zens is to place the building at some point
where ii can be seen from the Bay.
While the board is contending and bick =
ering among themselves, a number OF
children are running about the streets
losing the most valuable time in their
lives. II the directors do not wish TO
take immediate action in this matter
they should resign and allow some one
who is more progressive and will act
promptly, take their places. An addi-
tional teacher has been secured and
another room In the basement of the
present school building fitted up as a
class room, but this will not help matters
a great deal. The directors should rent
some building and fit IL up with benches
and desks and secure teachers, and do as
much as possible towards supplying the
present need. A little inconvenience and
discomfort will be overlooked II only a
school is established. The directors
should meet and try and settle their diff
ferences. # they find that this is impossi
Bile let them resign. There are plenty Of
public spirited citizens who could and
would settle this matter at once if they
were clothed with the proper authority.

who do the town more harm than good.

Second-Those who run it down ia
