CONSOLIDATION GETS "A JOLT.

At the special election, held in
Prairie township last Friday. to de-
termine whether the township should
consolidate its rural schools into a
Consolidated school, the proposition
was defeated by vote of 12S to IL.
1t appears that the Question of trans
porting the children to a centrally To-
Gated school was the determining
factor in turning down the proposi-
.tion by such an overwhelming vote.
