an approximate estimate Of the cost OF

$116.IUO. This does not include heat
ing and furnishing. The latter. it Is
estimated, will cost an additional
$1O.OOO-or $126.5OO for the buildin.
completed and ready for use. He fur
ther stated that it would probably take
eight or ten months to finish the
building
No contract was let. but it is eX-
pected that the contract will he let
during the latter part Of the present
week. according to the school board
authorities.
About S13O.OOO worth of bonds of the
S2OO.OOO issue voted will be sold. and
this allows some margin for unfore

Excavation for the foundation fol
the building will probably begin. Mr.

Save the Old Building.

Superintendent of Schools Fortson
was suggesting Tuesday. in cOnverSa-
ton with residents of this place. that
instead Of tearing down or selling the
old school building when the new
building shall have been erected. that
it be used in part as. Il teachers dormi-
tory and the remaining portion as re-
serve class rooms.
Your town is growing fast. said
Mr. FortSOn. and will most likely out
grow your new school house before it
is paid for. Torn down or sold the
old building will hardly bring a con-
siderable sum. but kept in Use and re-
paired it may save great outlay OF
money at time when you will not
feel inclined to vote additional taxes. "
