AIedo and Mercer County
NEW BOSTON ASKS
o A COMMUNITY
SCHOOL
Especial to The Argus-)

Aledo. Dec. yesterday a petit
ton was filed in the office of G. z.
Plat, county superintendent OF
schools, to form a community high
school district at New Boston. The
election was set for Saturday,
Dec. II.
The petition contained 104 sig
natures of New Boston township
residents. 1t was only required
that so residents sign the instru-
ments. The election will take place
in the New Boston high school
building from 1 O'Clock in the after
noon to 4. Votes can be cast by
all legal voters in the New Boston
township except those residing in
the Joy consolidated school district.
One of the largest turnout of
voters in the history of New Boston
is expected as the project is being
looked upon with both favor and
disfavor. The opposition is coming
from the residents in the outlying
districts, because if the election IS
carried their tax rates will be in
creased, while the residents in the
village of New Boston will have
their rates diminished. 1t is al
legged that the village residents are
not able to support the school
properly and that with the help of
the rest of the township a much
better school could be run. The
present high school which is prac-
tically a new structure, is owned
by New Boston village and in case
the project pOpS the hUild-
ing will be rented from the village.
