While clearing land for n. K. Daven.
port last Thursday Oscar Cameron was

colntable 20 those who witnessed il.

A meeting will be held at the school
house in Odell on Thursday evening.
April at 7.30 o'clock for the purpose
Of voting on the question Of donating 3
site for proposed union high school.
This Is the first step in a series looking
toward a union high school in 0dell,
about six school districts 10 be included
IN the plan. While there may perhaps
be those who will object to the plan
for various reasons, probably the prin-
elpal objection would be upon the
grounds OF additional expense and con-
sequent taxation, and this TO those
who, as many do, have children who
VIII continue in school through high
school, will not remain an objection
when the matter of tuition, board and
all other undesirable features of going
away from home to school are meas
ured against the much smaller matter
of tax necessary to build, equip and
maintain high school at home.
