This scheme is not n good one, first, because nt tho election held Nov. 8, tho vot ers of the district voted against such a move, nnd it is not likely they would so boon change their minds. Second, thu district school populnllo nis in creasing rapidly, and scattered over n largo territory, and it is only n ques tion of n short timo when n second, nnd n third nddition would Imvo to ho built. The proper thing to do is to build 11 second school house nearest tht center or population 11s it exists today, then when we net our live or ten thousaand people, build tho third wlii-io it will be most convenient.
