La Grande, March 28. (To the Kill- tor.) My former article was not wrltr ten as a reply to Mr. Hockenberry'a. It followed his first article.. The edi tor can verify this statement, as he Informed me when I presented my ar tide for publication,, that Mr. Hock- enberry's was then ready for print. and mine rould not be publlHhed until the following dsy, hlch I assured him was entirely satlHfactory to me. In Mr. Hockenberry'a second article he reminds me that my occupation as an engineer unfits me for the duties of a school director and a taxpaylng citizen, for it Is In these two capacities only, that I appear before the readers of this paper to speak again concern- ng'lhe high school building. I am not Interested in the proposition be cause I am about to engage In the bus iness of an architect, and "I say this) all kindness." Tn answer to the question, "Does Mr. Henson suppose that we can put the high school pupils In the grades?" desire to say that no Intelligent man. woman or child would entertain such proposition. Doing away with one grade teacher next ypar ns he sug gests will make five unoccupied grade rooms. . Who ever heard of a school district Ith five empty rooms, unfilled rooms, uilding 'a new house in order to get more room .' Now, with regard to the plan pro posed In my last article to movo the White building, it will not be neces- iry to float any bonds whatever for tills purpose, as we will derive from nx levy $1500 surplus over all run- ins: expenses, for next year, and then e figured on selling the lots how oc- u pied by the White building, which e think would be enough to move nd suitably equip the White building for high school purposes. But It is not absolutely necessary to move the - hlte building, as we will try to prove to you in this article. Should we find not necessary to move the White building, the $1500 mentioned can be pplicd on our present bonds. Mr. ' Hockenberry's statement with regard to the bonds will bear Invest! gatlon. It Is a fact that the present bonded Indebtedness of the school dls- these bonds this year, but $22,500 are absolutely due In 1919 and $12,000 In 1925. If we had been able In the 10 HOI years that have expired to raise halfgoun(j an(J weu." infallible for skli of the indebtedness, w e could reason- ably hope to easily pay off the re-1 malnlng half In the next 10 years, but' at present we have not one dollar to" apply on this Indebtedness and. tnere fore, the taxpayers should look with concern on this- proposition of an Ad ditional $23. 000 Indebtedness. Mr. Hockenberry says: "I fear Mr. Henson Is altogether opposed to a high school.' I need not inform my friends In this-community that I am not M- SHE'S A CJVEENI SIH7S A SIREN! extn-osoion that is always heard at sight of a ili-v .a woman.

Hitherto I huve listened with re spec! and consideration to Mr. Hock- nherrvs nianr' plans and schemes for the good of the school, and find at a late hour that to be treated with consideration In presenting my views to (In public I must necessarily agree with him. Now I wish tvpr"r;t n- iithi-r plan to the public, which will show that at the present time we have adeiun(e school accommodations. The sixth, seventh and eighth grades enn be taught In some of the five va cant room; this will give the entire upper floor of our present high school building consisting of six rooms and an assembly room for the high school In four of these rooms 160 pupils can be more than comfortably seated. This will fflve two additional rooms, one for commercial, the other for labora tory purposes. The assembly room will bo used for the study room, and as (here Is no time when over 80 pu plls will be thus employed, about 60 or 70 of the desks now placed n this room at the present time ran be re moved, making abundant space for the passing of the pupils to and from their recitation rooms. This, too, may bo the "Dream of a visionary," but I find taxes are no dream and I also find many earnest, though(ful people agree with me, that It Is a mistake to erect a new building with the present number of unoccupied school rooms, and I believe that my dreams wilt be sweeter If I say what I believe to be, true, even if I do bring upon myself the adverse criticism of -my friend, Mr, Hocker-berry. It is true that dreams sometimes foretell facts and make the present appear more vividly to our vision. For Instance, I might have drenmcd that Mr. Hockenberry has been an Inhab itant of our beautiful city for eight years; (hat he has lived In a rented house all of that time, and hns paid the magnificent sum of $4.75 for taxes and that for last year only.. I have been a fixture in this city for 20 years, own my home, free' from all Incum brances and have paid taxes nearly every year since I came here, and I find th?y keep growing larger each year until now I have to contribute $68.72, with an excellent prospect of doing the same thing next year. . Now, Mr, Taxpayer, this statement Is not a myth, fancy or dream, neither nm I afflicted with brain storms very often. Unfortunately or otherwise for Mr. Hockenberry and myself It Is a reality. I will admit that' I may be weak-minded, but that does not change the facts, as I have given them in this article. Should you have' any doubt about them, search the records, as I have done, and satisfy yourself. I am, as ever your obedient servant. HENRY HENSON. It Saved Ills Leg.
