 THOUSAND DOLLARS
Petition Calling for Bond Election Will Be Circu-
 lated at Once

A high school in Globe for the entire county!
 Sucn was the decision of the high school committee of the chamber of commerce, which held an enthusiastic meeting at the chamber last night The matter was diseased at length and steps were taken to secure an immedi- ate expression of opinion from the peo- pie of the entire county, regarding the construction of new $10U,000 high school, which while built in Globe, will accommodate pupils from the entire county.
 It was the unanimous feeling of the members of the committee that the new high school should include more than scnool district No. l, or the city of Globe, and that it should be open to students from all parts of the county. 1t was felt that the advantages of a secondary education which will be se- cured for the young men and young women of this city should not be with held from the young people of the out side districts and as the result, the campaign for the new school building will be county wide.
 At last night s meeting, President F. F. Towle. Chairman T. r. Howard and members A. T. HamlnOns, $. F. Sullen- berger, F. D. Smith and l.. E. Wight man of the high school committee and Secretary R. c. Rohrabacher were pres ent.
 The matter of a new secondary school was thoroughly discussed and the plan of securing a high school for the entire county was decided upon only after mature deliberation. It was felt, how ever, that the best interests of both the city and county could be served, the business interests of this city benefited and the city advertised more thoroughly by carrying out this plan, and by unan- imous consent this plan was adopted.
 Will Submit to Kellner As the result of motion made by Professor F. D. Smith, letter setting forth the facts of the high school cam paign will be drawn up at once and erintendent of schools.
 He will be asked to send copies of this letter, together with a petition for a special election, to every school board in the county. These petitions are to be circulated and returned to MT. Kell, ner as soon as possible. It is expected that within the next two weeks, prep arations for the calling of special cleo tion will be we'll under way.
 It was the opinion of the committee that $75,00O will purchase the neces- sary grounds and build a school build ing sufficient in size to accommodate 400 students. Other necessary expenses will increase the cost to some extent and it is probable that bond issue |. of about $l00,000 will be placed before the people when the matter comes to an election.
 $ The school will contain about eight rooms, according to the present plans, aside from an assembly hall, gymnasium and other necessary features.
 School Necessary
 While school of this size may seem large for Globe as it is at the present time. the new building will be con structed with the future growth of the city in view. Naturally the voting of bonds, their approval and sale, the let ting of contracts and the construction of the new building will be a matter of considerable time and by the time of completion of the new structure. the number of high school students will have materially increased. If, on the opening of the new school, there are more rooms than are necessary, they can be used by the grammar grades until such time as the growth of the eommun- ity demands their use for high school branches.
 The matter of locating site for the : erection of the new building has been left to individual members of the com mittee and it is probable that a site will be selected at the next meeting of the committee. An option will then be taken on the property, pending the out come of the bond election.
 While the first cost of the new high
