AS for the school board keeping

building they are justified land are
sleeping with one open, according to
H. H. Peters) to see that the kids
get the best that they possibly can
get without it costing the district
anymore than necessary. They are
keeping in mind the danger to the
kids in school that not so very long
ago the district was called on to
pay damages for youngster get
ting hurt while at play. If anything
should happen to the present grade
school while being greatly over
taxed as at present. the chance of
the district getting out of paying
even greater damages are rather
small.
If the district can possibly build
so as to install Junior high school
it should, as it will bring in S
cents per day more per pupil than
the present system now in use. The
better the school privileges the bet
ter the chances of new settlers
coming into the district. All in
all, the kids will not be the only
ones to enjoy the benefits of a new
school building.

Now when (note I say when"
and not "if'') we get ready this new
building let's reverse the usual pol
icy and give the job to the highest
bidder instead of the lowest so that
after he salts the palm of his
friends who helped him get the con-
tract and buys new cars for the
building inspector, the architect
and various others, he will have
enough left to put some mortar be-
tween the bricks. BY the way does
the mortar hold the bricks together
or does it just hold them apart?
Where were all the inspectors and
the others who were paid to guard
our interests while this building
was being built that it should be-
come obsolete and unsafe after 20
years. With fear and trembling I
read the engineers report of the
condition of the present building.
He told everything except the ten
sile strength of that clinging vine
that grows on the outside and that
seems to be the only thing that is
holding the building up. am glad
that it grows on the east and north
sides so the bricks won't fall in the
ditch or the road. And another
thing I don't like if the state buys
those bonds they will have to be
paid by some one some time. If
"they" could be sold to some mis-
guided individual there would be
a chance to repudiate them like we
did the irrigation bonds. And an
other thing, how can anybody pre-
dict what the laws about taxation
will be during the next twenty
years. The income law has been
thrown out again and perhaps our
white collared friends will get tired
of buying nickles with holes in
them and repeal that law then who
will pay the ever increasing taxes.
But come on you guys and be
good sports and sign your names
on the dotted line. Put new mort
gage on your homes and farms and
levy tax on the children's lolly-
pops and ice cream cones and on
your grandmother's cup of tea to
build a 100000 monument to man
who never had a hoe in his hand
in his life.

I've noticed that the wrongdoer
is always a staunch supporter Of
the contention that convention is
foolish.
Most gossip is resented, but I've
noticed that it is resented more
when it is true.
I've heard folks talk about how
many children they have raised only
to see the same children impudent
and disobedient to their parents and
a general nuisance to everyone else.
I don't believe that the parent Of a
family like that has any right to
say he has raised them. They have
merely grown up.
Why not show the play girls some
years later in the the midst of the
family wash, surrounded by heaps
of soiled clothes, overalls and
jumpers, pausing between machine

cigarette.

Editor Courier-Reporter::


I see by last weeks paper that
you are in favor of putting up a
little two by four school house. I
had always thought you were more
in favor of modern school build
ing, but from last weeks paper I
see I have been mistaken all along.
It appears as though you agree with
Mr.. Smith and Mr.. Peters in what
was good enough for yourselves is
good enough for your children and
grandchildren. You can all three
remember back to your own school
days and cannot truly say you ever
heard your father and mother
grumble on building bigger and
better school house when ever q
chance to build came along, even if
it did boost their taxes little. At
that they did not have it as easy to
pay their taxes as we of today do.
No one offered to help them out to
the tune of As percent and to loan
them the rest for 20 years for only
4 percent.
If they had been such bunch of
tightwads on school matters (as LII.
Smith is, as he himself says he can
not afford to take the Courner-Re-
porter, but that he will run over to
his neighbor and borrow his copy
and still expect you to get out as
good paper as you could if every
body else who does as L. j. S. does
would only come in and plank down
the two dollars for the paper, so
that you void have your 81 to pay
toward the new building.
