WE are very glad to see tn

WE are very glad to see the
people Of Whites Neck and North
River making a determined effort
TO secure a good school building
and wish them much success in
their undertaking. In order how
ever that they may sut coed they
must have the cooperation and
hrlp Of the Nestville Schol
Board. So tar as is i'm their
power the Board is very willing
TO extend the helping hand but
they are seriously handicapped
by the present low rate of the
District levy which yields an
amount each year barely sufficient
for the running expenses of the
schools in the district. An ear
nest effort was made last year to
have this levy Increased but
without success. The Board Of
Supervisors will meet on March
3Ist to decide upon the levy for
the coming year and if the citizens
of Whites Neck really desire anew
building they will do well to
app ear en- masse before the
Board and request their represen
tative in that body to raise the
district school lew. BY accom-
plishing this they will not only
facilitate the erection of school
at Bohanon but will render a
service to the entire district.
We commend to the attention
of our r. aders the article on the
oyster situation. received from
Commissioner Lee and printed in
this issue.
