Have YOU a good high school ~
These are two important questions TO
be considered by man Of family.
Now we can't boast much If our low
tax rate. Indeed it is the net highest
in the State. and we are taxed almost
TO the limit Of our pocket book, and
to the liinit of the law as we'll. But
we do hope to boast Of our high school
when we get the new building. The
present one is entirely inadequate.

school, but it is noticeable fact
that these Jews itizens are always
invited TO speak in favor of public

Maryland Day. The public school is
tho greatest OF all institutions next
