A School Budget.

MO LACK of confidence the school board is implied
N the proposal to submit the public school budget for
year the public for discussion and suggestions. It
made with view to assisting the board and the authorities
who fix the tax levy arriving at just conclusions in pro-
viding for the years expenditures.
Nor is there any political motive behind the proposal
It is straight business.
The school tax is the levy to which objection is
seldom heard. All communities realize that the school
system must be maintained at high Standards whatever
the cost.
Aside from opening the way for discussion Of the budget
the proposed hearing would have the good effect Of bring
ing the board and public into closer relationship and would
tend to do away with misunderstanding which in the past
have arisen nurng the schools and shaking the confidence
Of the public in Officials
By taking the public into its confidence and inviting
free discussion Of all school affairs, the board would do
much to advance the cause Of harmony and good feeling
