,The Board Of Education, having
pearls exhausted its fund fer new
Buildings, has begun to pay the con
Tractors for the new high school work
with certificates Of Indebtedness, the
first two obligations Of this character
having been drawn this week, one for
81. 800. 10, geine to the A. s; Reed a.
Bro. Ga, contractor for the building,
and the sther fer sl,040 to Harry A.
Miller, contractor for the plumbing and
Rindred work, These payments repre-
sented so per cent OF the outlay Of
those contractors during the month of
November and wsre according to the
agreements in The contracts:
The reason the payments were made
IN this manaer was because the repoIt
Of the treasurer for the month Of
November showed that at the end of
the month there was q deficit Of s5S. So
in the new Building fund. During the
meeting last Monday night the sum Of
81, 600 was transferred from the current
expense to the new building fund, yip=
ing out the eseIarsft ard making A
balance of S34l. Is.
At glance, these figures and the
action Of the board would appear to In
dicate that the board was in fnancIal
straits, but President Shortljage says
such is nat thu CASE. When saap by a
reporter IF The Gazette he. said the
condition was JUST what had been
courted upon and did Let ec9me IN the
nature of surprise. The board knew
what money it would have and plans
were made accordingly. The certificates
of indebtedness aap ha discounted by
the EaEtjes receiving them, apd as the
board has arranged to take them up
and its credit is good, no traph!e is an.
tieiRated, nr. Shortlidge said that
while these obligations will probably
amount TIC 800, 1000 in the aggregate,
they viii 30 paid off, ~ the bears res

President Shortlidge thinks the
board can congratulate itself that the

were, aa since that tins building
