ings and no contest Is expected.

perfect contrast to the South Chip

facilities for the Twelfth District
will also be a subject Of discussion.
The present schoolhouse has been
overcrowded for the past two years
and although at special meeting
it was voted to appropriate $4,000
for a new school. nothing has been
done as vet. When bids were re.
ceived. 1t was found that the voted
appropriation was insufficient te
erect the building and Chairman
Andrews at . meeting held several
months ago. suggested that the
building program be deferred until
Bristol voted to consolidate the
school system. At that time, he
pointed out, the city would build a
new schoolhouse for the district and
the city would assume the expense.
Chairman Andrews also submitted a
petition to the state board of educa-
ton. asking that the city be in
structed to provide the proper facili-
tier. but the state refused to take
such action. deciding that the dis
trict must assume the burden itself.
The annual meeting of the Stat
ford school district will be held at 8
o'clock Friday evening. Officers will
be elected for the ensuing year and
tax laid. The matter Of addition
al school facilities will also be
