ANNUAL SCHOOL MEETING AND
ELECTION.

Notice is hereby given to voters
that on Monday, April 10, 1915, the
annual school meeting and election
for sll school districts in Lincoln
County, State of Idaho, other than in
dependent districts, will be held at
the school house in said districts,
At one O'Clock p. m. of said day, or
at such time on said day as may be
specified in the election notice of
each district, meeting will be held
to select judge and clerk of election
and to determine whether or not the
question of special tax shall be
voted upon at the election; to fix the
AMOUNT OF MONEY to be raised by
special tax on each dollar of taxable
property in the district; to elect one
or more trustees; to decide upon the
length of school term to be voted
upon; and to transact such other bus
mess pertaining to school interests
as may come before the meeting.
In voting at the said annual cleo
ton to determine whether special
tax shall be raised, or on the amount
of money to be raised thereby, none
but actual resident freeholders or
heads of families shall vote. The
Board of County Commissioners shall
at the time of making the annual
levies, make a sufficient levy in mills
upon all taxable property In said
school district not exempt from tax
alton sufficient to produce the said
amount of money 30 certified to be
raised by special tax for such school
district for such year.
This year the amount Of money to
be raised by special tax shall not ex-
ceed ten (1O) mills on each dollar
of taxable property.
In order to estimate the amount of
money you need to raise by special
tax, let me suggest the following
plan:
/. Determine the amount of money
the district will have on hand at the
close of the school year, that is,
July l. 1915. BY getting your bal
ance on hand now and estimating
what 1t viii cost to finish this year,
you can come close to an accurate |
estimate.
2. Estimate that you will receive |
about the same amount from state |
and county apportionment that you
received this year.
3. Decide upon the length of
school term and what salary you
expect to pay the teacher. Please
make a liberal allowance for teach
sr's salary.
4. II you need improvements or re-
pairs. make an estimate of the
amount you will need for such pur-
poses.
5. Make provision for incidental
expenses.
s. Add the balance you expect to
nave at the close of the school year
% the amount you expect to receive
rom apportionment; the difference
the sum of these two items
Ind the estimated amount of expend-
ture for the coming year will be the
amount of money that will have to
,e raised by special tax.
Be sure and do NOT include the
lmount needed for BOND INTEREST
md for REDEMPTION OF BONDS
n your itemized list of expenses for
he coming school year, as it does not
equire a vote Of the electors to de-
ermine this amount. The trustees,
themselves fix this amount.
The annual school election Is the
most important meeting of the year
t is to be hoped every voter will at
end this meeting and vote to make
he school better equipped in every
gay than in the pas. year.
