Thursday night to the effect that "the
Monroe Doctrine Is as much In eff

years ago as IL was promulgated dur.
ing the term OF office OF President
James Monroe, who held the office

meant that the Monroe Doctrine was

BOARD TO MEET WITH
SUPT. HANILETT.

Pikevillle, KY, April 7th.-The
question of the location of the
new $4,000 school building which
will be erected in Pikeville this
summer, will be definitely settled OF
April 18th. On that date State
Superintendent Barksdale Hamlet,
of Frankfort, will meet with the
site committee, and one of a num-
Der of lots now in prospect will be
purchased.
The fund for the new public
school building is to be raised half
by Pikeville and half by Pike 'coun-
ty. 1t will not be necessary to bond
the county for it to raise its share
of the fund, as slight tax increase
will produce the required amount;
but the town will have to be bond
ed, and a bond election was held fol-
that purpose last month.
1t is thought that the sale of the
old public school building and lot
will raise a sufficient fund to pur-
chase the new lot.
