continue on the board so that he can
carry out the plans, already under
way, to replace old No. s school in the
Second district with a large new
structure combining all modern inn
provements, and he hopes to have the
support OF all citizens who desire this
much needed improvement because
having served one term he Will be
more likely to secure recognition than
a new representative would.
Their is no apparent opposition for
the mino.' offices and the only candi-
date mentioned so far for constable is
