Frankford

The county authorities have had q
force of men for the past few days
making some much needed repairs
to the bridge near the school house
across Vines Branch canal. AS this
is a much used highway, a perma-
nent structure should be built at
once.
For several evenings the street
lights have been late in being swift
ched on. For several hours each
night the streets were in darkness.
Mr.. and Mrs. William D. Sterrett
of Washington, D. c., were recent
visitors here of Mrs. Sterrett's ia
Their, DR.. F. M. Gum.
Mrs. Robert w. Dasey has return
ed from Philadelphia where she
spent the winter.
John Furman who lives on Knox
street has accepted position on
the tug boat Mars as an engineer.
He met the boat this week in Nor
folk.
School Notes
The story is told of two hunters,
after a long chase, coming near
enough to their goal, large bear,
to deliver the fatal shot. However,
before attempting to kill the animal
they began to argue over a suitable
place to hang him, and thus let the
bear escape. May citizens of Days
boro and frankfort profit from the
experience of the hunters and not
argue over the location of a new
building and thus fail to vote in IA
vor of consolidation, their only pos
sible chance of obtaining modern
school building. Many Of the leading
citizens of both towns are willing
to leave this question to the State
Board, who would make a careful
survey Of the matter before deter
mining the location. 1t is to be hop
ed that the voters will not let the
location of a site serve as an OBJ
stacle to hinder them from voting
for consolidation, but will go to the
polls on May 18th and vote as a unit
for this first important step toward |
a new building, leaving the matter
of location and other minor details |
to the good judgment of our COM
petent State Board Of Education.
