BARRE'S EVENING DRAWING
SCHOOL,

/ The attention OF the general public
of the exhibition of the work done BY
the Barre Evening Drawing school in
the Mathewson building ON Elm street.
The exhibition is to be open to the pub
! lie on the afternoons and evenings OF
May 2 and 3. 1t is intended to be a
visible manifestation to the people of
Barre of what their money is doing
along the line of developing the artistic
sense of the young people of the city,
particularly perhaps of those who intend
to enter the granite industry. In fact,
it is about the only chance which the
taxpayers have of seeing where their
five per cent. annual tax goes, except OF
course as it is manifest in the improve
ment of the individual worker in the
granite industry. Throughout the school
year the public does not reveal such Il
marked interest in the school as the first
efforts of the Granite Manufacturers as
sOCldllUU anu the UIdfhle 1ubItTs union
in seeking for the establishment OF the
school would lead one to expect they
had, as rarely do visitors call at the
school to inspect the work. Possibly
the public is satisfied with the work |
done and is content with the conviction !
that the five per cent. tax for the sup
port of the school is justified. But even
if such is the case, the people natural /
ly should feel enough interest in knowing |
where their money is being expended !
to pay an annual visit at least. In or
der to give them this opportunity, the
public exhibition is planned for the last
two days OF this week; and it takes on
Ill the more significance because within
, short time the taxpayers will be called
lpon to decide whether they shall vote
mother annual tax for the support of
he Evening Drawing school for another
year. Therefore, there ought to be a
arge attendance at the exhibition.

The proposition to buy an auto truck
for the use of the water department
looks like piece of luxury the city
can i'll afford at the present time. Ac-
cording to the city report it cost the
water department in 1912 S39l.o3 for
keep and maintenance of the city team,
for automobile truck hire and all team
and trucking expenses. 1t is estimated
by the water department that it will
have about nine more days use for an
auto truck going to and from the Orange
reservoir this year than last, and largely
on this it bases it's desire for a truck
it wants truck to do the work one
horse and few days hire Of truck
has done in the past.
