every vote cast was for the proposed
budget.
Several of Elk Prairi0 people ex
pressed their sentiment strongly to
the effect that if the school was not
allowed the next move would bo to
divide the district They had only
considered two schools in one district,
because they felt that it would make
hardship upon the small portion
which is in Coal Creek.
Those from Elk Prairie were Mrs.
W. Lamb, Chas. Tidd, Mr. Raider,
Richard Joplin, D. W. Badger. Those
from Coal Creek who aided them were
