Deming graphic. (Deming, N.M.) 1903-1948, 1910-04-01

To the Voters Of School Dist. No. l.:
1t has always been the desire and
aim of the school trustees to give to
this district the best school possible
and in asking you to vote the neces-
sary bonds for an additional build
ing to accommodate our rapidly
growing school, our motive is to
still further increase its efficiency.
The need of additional room Is i'm
perative, as SIS pupils cannot justly
and successfully be educated in our
present building with capacity of
only 800. Your children are enti-
tied to the very best educational adj
vantages and under most favorable
conditions. We always have had,
and still have, the best school in
New Mexico, but we must advance
II we wish to hold II at this high
standard. Other cities are forging
to the front; Silver City has just
voted $25, ZOO bonds for more school
room: Tucumcari has just completed
a $40, 600 high school structure and
Roswell has voted $4,000 for the
same purpose. Deming cannot af-
ford to take a backward step. In
ferior schools will be the inevitable
result of overcrowded rooms and
overworked teachers. Our citizens
have recently organized to secure
the rapid development of our natur-
al resources, our business enter
prises and to populate this valley.
Our public schools must keep pace,
they have always been our hest adj
vertisement and always will be, but
their efficiency must be maintained.
The new high school building, with
modern equipment, will greatly in.
crease the value of all property, and
this increase will be proportionately
much larger than the increased
taxes necessary to redeem the bonds
when they become due. Voters,
we ask you to vote for the bonds,
and in so doing you will give your
children the excellent school advan-
tages to which they are entitled. 1t
is the richest legacy you can be-
queath to them.
