'One-Scho0l' Districts.

For several years | have urged
the forming of "one-school" dis
tricts and the levy of a special
school tax. To my previous reasons
for advising this is added a recent
and strong one, viz: The policy of
the Legislature to give aid only to
those weak schools that levy a
special tax, and the regulation by
the State board of education allow
ing aid to only one school in a dis
trict. l believe this plan will be
permanent, and sincerely hope that
our patrons in the large school dis
tricts will take steps at once looking
towards one school district and the
voting of a special tax. The plan is
simple: Outline in petition to the
county board of education the terri
tory desired in the new district(which
should contain from Is to 20 square
miles,, having it signed by one-third
or more of the electors and free
holders in said territory, and unless
there are special reasons against the
forming of such a district the pc
tition will be granted. To such dis
tricts the State aid will be as much
as they raise by special taxation,
but not to exceed $4,000.
will be glad to attend any meet
ings called for the purpose of con-
sidering changes along this line.
