PENINSULAR
Edited by Mrs. E. Hayden)

Thursday evening for the purpose of
seeing how the officers stood in regard
to consolidation. While only one ex-
pressed himself against the plan most
of the others felt there were difficulties
hard to overcome. Mrs. Scott Dir. of
the Mountain disliked the idea because
the consolidated scnoolhouse could not
be used for religious or political meet
ings and as the Mountain school had
always been so closely connected with
the Star of Hope Sunday school it
would be very hard for that District TO
give up the schoolhouse. Now it is my
opinion il plan could be worked out
so the Star of Hope could retain the
building, even il they have to buy it,
for church and could have the use of
the school bnsses for their services, |
for one would help all could with the
sunday school or any of their other
work and l am sure there are many
more who would be glad to join the S.
S. if they had any way to get there so
Instead OF being a hindrance it would
be great help and as the building was
made in 1882 there could not be any
very great value on it, The only de-
finite move made was to elect COM
mittee of three, F. ii. Wangeman of
Three Bells, Mr. Hammond of Ironton,
and Edward Dunlap of the Mountain
Dist. to look over the ground with re-
gard to the territory which could be
gotten into a consolidated school and
report at a future meeting. All the
