New School Levy
Prevents Building
OF $35O,O0O High

Devils Lake, April 3O.--The
new high school building that
was to have been built at Devils
Lake at cost of $35O,OOO will not
be started this year, it is said by
A. E.. Parshall. secretary of the
school board. 1--WE passed the bond
issue to build that school and will
have no trouble to sell the bonds, as
our bonded indebtedness is very low
in Devils Lake. But, it would be
impossible to maintain the school at
the present mill levy on our assess
ed valuation. Our valuation is very
low in Devils Lake at the present
time. One city in the state whose
population is not any larger than
ours has nearly double the valuation
of Devils Lake. he said.
