SCHOOL VOTE (Continued from page tj) twice as large as necessary for reel tation purposes, but cannot be divided on account of lighting and heating. Until this year we wrre compelled to have stury and recitation going on In the same room at the tame time. This is a great hand-ap as every high school teacher knows. Last summ-r we had the upper hall of the Central building tilted up fr a mtrting in.l tiidy room. This hn? been an improvement over other year but cannot be continued next year a it will not furnish enough room.

Th high school Ih the only college that most of our. boys and girls will ever attend, and It should not lack equipment. It will cost from $1000 to $1500 to fit up a laboratory and this is too much to spend anywhere, except where It can remain. The heating capacity of the furnaces In the Central building is not great enough when we use the upper hall. In fact on cold, windy days, it Is all that the furnaces can do to heat the bulldinir without heating the upper hall, and when that la added all suf fer. . . ' , . I have heard It said that the White I school. This Is an impossibility. There ore three rooms on each floor built around a hall. No two of these rooms could be thrown together with out that it could not be used for high school purposes. It Is also said that $25,000 Is not enough to build a high school. This is also a mistake. The Central build ing cost $28,000, and It is twice the size needed for a high school of 300 pupils, which Is all that we shall have for some years.. - Some propose postponing until next venr been use of high taxes. The taxes for this year are already assessed and j partly collected. A tax for paying the Interest on the bonds was levld at the meeting In January, and so It will make no difference whether we build this year or next, except to deprive our children of the benefits for an other year.
