OF TRUSTEES NOW FULLY
DEMONSTRATED

Tonopah is becoming city of
homes. Many people are coming here
with their families, attracted by the
stable conditions in the district. Their
children are receiving instruction in
the public schools, but the accommoda.

not be long before overflow classes are
established in the old high school

When the new public school build

trustees there was considerable howl
from some of the taxpayers over the
cost, but now it is proven that not a
sufficient sum was voted for the
bonds.
