VOTING TODAY
ON SCHOOL HOUSE
VOTERS or SCHOOL DISTRICTS
20 AND 90 BALLoTlRe TO-DAY
ON QUESTION OF scHooLHousE
CONSOLIDATION - MAY ERECT
5000 BUILDING.

The question Of whether the little
Undiscovered schoolhouse, reported in
verse to Superintendent Riley last
week by one OF the county teachers and
which report appeared in The For
um at the time. shall be displaced and
and handsome new $4,000 building be
erected instead, lis being decided to-
day by the voters OF Chaffee school
district 26 and the adjoining school
district.
The proposition confronting the vot-
ers OF that locality today favors the
consolidation OF districts No. rs and Sc,
and the erection of a new modern.
and complete country school building
which will cost approximately Sc, 600.
One OF the questions to be voted on
is the annexation of district No IS
to rs, and after that II VIII be decided
the exact cost OF the building and
plans will probably be submitted to the
Fargo Builders e. Traders exchange.
Should the proposition carry today,
this will mean that the little old school.
covered with dust and with rusty
stove and rusty hinges on the DOORS
as so POLITICALLY stated in the unique
report submitted to Superintendent
Riley last week, will be a thing of the
past, and the four little verses of the
teacher will not have been without
their effect.
Superintendent Riley attended a
meeting Of board of arbitration yes
terday and returned this morning
bringing with him a very favorable
report Of everything In that vicinity.
