Of course I want to be well. Do you think I am trying to beat some sick benefit insurance com pany? You will look a long while before you will find anybody who will admit that he does not want to be well.
 All right, let me put the ques- tion in another way, then. Do you want to be we'll bad enough to take the means of getting well?
 Yes, if knew what the means were. But there is no use of your springing any old shop talk on me about some remedy you know of that will cure this and cure that. I have heard that sort of talk a good while. It doesn't go with me.

BOND ISSUE
UP AGAIN
Trustees Of Independent School District
No. a Ask $40, 900 for New
School Building
ELECTION TO Be HELD ON MAY 5
Vote to Buy Eaton Lot for Additional
Site

On Saturday, May 8, the voters
of Independent School District
No 4 will be given the opportun-
ity to again vote on a bond issue
for the purpose of building a new
school house.
The bond issue will be in the
sum of 500 900 and the election
will be held at the school house the
afternoon of May Sth.
In connection with the bond is
sue no particular site will be con-
sidered as the board of trustees of
Independent School District No.
on Monday night voted to purchase
the Eaton lot adjoining the present
school site and to pay therefor the
sum of 81, 500 and it is proposed
by the board to erect the new
building on this and other lots now
owned by the district on the school
house hill.
Under the state laws the school
trustees of independent school dis
tricts are empowered to purchase
sites as needed and it may be pos
sible, if the bond issue carries, that
the school board will purchase ad-
ditional adjoining lots to the pres
ent school site. At the meeting
Monday night Trustee Stewart said
that the lot in the rear of the Eaton
lot could be purchased for 81 $50
and that a 80 foot lot across the
street from the Eaton lot could be
purchased for $500. Trustee Stew
art believed that it could be ar
ranged to have this street between
the 80 foot lot and the Eaton lot
vacated so that the school district
would have frontage of 230 feet
and lot depth of 800 feet which
he thought would be sufficient for
site for the proposed new school
building. The additions proposed
by Stewart would cost $3.50 less
whatever could be secured for the
buildings now occupying the lots.
Prior to the passage of the mo-
ton calling for bond election it
was proposed that a four-room
frame building be built on the pres
ent school grounds and be paid for
out of the present school levy.
This proposition did not seem to
meet with the approval of the ma
jority of the board, however.
AS the matter now stands the
Eaton site will be purchased wketh-
er the bond issue carries or not and
will be paid for out of funds now
on hand.
