The proposition 10 bond Kingmar
district for school house purposes, made
as the MrsEn last week, Is being quitt
/ freely discussed by our citizens. The
!, present school house is already too small
to accommodate the children, and At ths
same tirae is in an unfinished condition
Why would il not be good idea for tb,
trustees TO call an election for the pur
pose Of voting on the question Of bondini
the district for the building Of new
school house? The old one could be fin
isbed up and sold for Ave or six hundret
dollars, and a new brick building coult
be erected on a more suitable site to
about three thousand dollars. BY put
ting up good substantial building 10 b
used for school purposes, Kingman woul'
be showing comnnendable enterprise, ant
We hope our suggestion win be followed
