SPECIAL SCHOOL ELECTION
TO BE HELD OCTOBER g.

Notices of a Special School Flee

urday afternoon, Oct ., from to 4
o'clock, in the Grade Building.
The purpose of the election is 10
raise the levy for General School
purposes to 14l2 mills, which is
necessitated by the increased school
expense. The law allows School
Board to levy 10 mills without con-
sulting the people. but if a higher
levy is needed "a vote must be taken
and the levy fixed by the people
For the past 10 years the Leaven-
worth Schools have been run on a TO-
mill levy. 1t was only by the strict
est economy that this was possible
last year. No other school in the
state carrying a full High School
course was able to do so as far as we
can learn. A great many schools
have gone to the limit which is 90
mills The School Board estimates
that it will require $4,000 in addi-
ton to what the regular 10 mill levy
augmented by the regular state and
county funds will produce to conduct
the school for 9-months' term.
The main increase in school ex-
pense is the increase in teachers
salaries. This increase is nation
wide as every well informed person
knows. In addition to this there was
an inSstent demand for music

again, an increased enrolment OF
some 50 pupils necesstated the en-
ployment of an additional teacher.
Altogether our teachers pay is s817
per month more than last year or
1888 for the year
Moreover, all school supplies have
increased in price from so to 100
per cent.
With these facts before the voters
the School Board soicits your support
fci the increased levy that we may
be able to hold up the high standard
OF the school and to maintain the
school for the full 9-months' term.

do this. Practically all OF us are
back at work, and while we could
use a bonus to good advantage,
we are not in actual need of it.
Whatever sacrifices we may have
made at the time we wish to re-
main as such. We made them
with a right good will, and our
services were offered gladly and
willingly
We certainly would not ex-
change places with anyone who
did notshave the opportunity of

much less with any one who evad-
ded his duty at the time of our

and satisfaction of having done
