July 81, the same day the annual schoo
election is held. The plan adopted BY
the building committee is a two stor1
structure containing four rooms. Til,
! size of the rooms have not learned
but they will be large enough to com
| fortabiy accommodate as many pupils a
one teacher can handle. Now a word t.

trict be cast for the proposition or it i
| lost. 1t ont do to stay at home and fai
to vote as many of us are in the habit o
! doing, for vote not cast is vot
against it, and don't conclude that w,

make. The children are here and w
would be worse than heathens if we faile,
/ to provide better way for them to get a.
education and training for citizens
than they can get running loose on tn
street.
