SENTIMENT ASCERTAINED

That the choice of site for the pro- posed new school building for district No. 3, will be a location in Gage addi- tiOn either directly south of the high school or across the road in a south westerly direction is now very likely, as a result of the mass meeting held Saturday afternoon at the grammar school With a goOdly representation of the taxpayers of the district present despite the rain and muddy weather each of the probable sites was investi- gated in detail. While there was nat urally diversity of opinion on the matter, a majority of those present seemed to favor the location offered in the Gage addition tract. Acting on this sentiment it is altogether likely that the board of trustees will make the final choice accordingly, providing the bond election carries and a satis- factory purchase price may be secured on the site
