EQUAL SCHOOL PRIVILEGES. i To Pupils of Every District In Clacka mat County. The County high school question will be before the voter of Clackamas County In the Juno election. A vote to establish a county high schol next June emnowcrs the county court to fix tho location, which means a county high school at some one cen tral place supported by the tax pay ers of everv district In tho county. The districts not having this high school will be at a disadvantage to sena their children away from home to the Conntv hlffh school, where the ex penses will be as much as at the State Institutions, I believe In equal school privileges for every district In Claekamns coun ty. The law now provides for tthe cs tahiiimpnt nf r hlch school by any district that wants it or the consolida tion of two or more for high scnooi advantages, when they agree, upon such arrangements. The consolidated high school wouia I Tin noar the hnmes of the children, Iwhere they could attend after finish- inR me lower Rrniiru. They would take a pride In their own high Rchool and It would be aa Incentive for the pupils in the lower grades to remain in school longer and do better work, knowing they have a good high nchool near by to attend when they are prepared. ' Every district In Clackamas Conn ty should hare the best school possi ble for the district or the consolidated districts to provide. J. W.
