What seemed to be Intentional
scattering of large tacks along tho

two Abilene men who were out

three or four tacks would be placed

further on three or four more on
the other side. This continued for
about half mile and for an auto

AS the Buckeye road is now grav-

Eight Teachers Chosen
for Abilene Schools

voters should keep clearly In mind
the two propositions upon which
they will be asked to vote. The
election is Friday.
One proposition is: Are you In
favor of voting $4,000 bonds for
new Lincoln buildingf
The other is: Are you in favor Of
increased high school facilltlesf
A vote for the bonds or a vote
against the bonds has no connec-
tion whatever with the question In
regard to high school facilities.
Each is a separate proposition.
The question as to high school
facilities will be placed upon sep
arate sheet OF paper. It will not
really be a ballot, but is submitted
so that the school board may learn
the sentiment Of the community
with regard to high school facilities.
A vote in favor of increased high
school facilities will not commit
the voter to a vote In favor of is
suing high school bonds.
Should the majority of votes cast
carry with them the affirmative an-
swer to the question relating to the
high school. the school board Is
not bound to expend single dollar
by such action of the voters. The
town is not bound to any definite
expenditure. The vote is simply
vote in favor of thorough study and
investigation Of high school condi-
tions, and with the view Of learning
or not increased high
school facilities should be acquired.
