 Last Sunday the Young Mems Mu- tual held very interesting meeting. 1 The subject under general discussion ! was the EpistIes of Paul; how Paul wrote them and why he wrote them | Councilman Udau of St. Johns was present and addressed the association | on the necessity and benefits of educa- tion.
 Last Saturday a mass meeting was held in Mesa by the tax payers living | in the Mesa school district. The prop OsitiOn to enlarge the present school | building has been quietly pushed for ward for the past six months. The eff | feet of this work was manifested in | the meeting which without any Un- necessary delay instructed the trustees to secure plans and specifications for additions that will make 8 tWelve-rOOm | building out of the present one. The | foundation is to be enlarged so as to | admit of two or more rooms and then the whole thing is to be raised to two | stories. The seating capacity is to be | 450. This figure may appear to some | to be far ahead of requirements. It is mistake. however, as the present en- rollment is BIO. When the plans and | specifications are secured, another meeting will be held to decide on bonding the district to secure the necessary funds. This is an improve ment that Mesa does need, and when secured, can feel justly proud of. It will make the little city loom up.
