a coat or two of mahogany stain after
the old paint or varnish has been re-

1t was plain to be seen that the
board did not favor the recommends

unwilling to let up on their previous
action for the one new school build

None OF the committee of the In

posed the motion to adjourn. This
was Mr.. Hamill who would not give
up his cherished desire to raise the

was carried.

Although the beard was in execu>

a great deal of discussion was caused
by the bond issue On account of the
reported ill-fsel.ng that Is said to
exist between The north and south

objections they had heard in regard

on account Of this ill-feeling. al hough
most of the opponents Of the measure
cover this. to certain extent, by
saving that the school taxes are al.
ready too high.
