SPECIAL ELECTION FDR
WATER DISTRICT IS SET
On March 14. a special election
will be held in the Oak Grove-Jen-ning's
Lodge district for the purpose
of forming a joint water district. The
date of election was set Tuesday by
the county court after petitions cir
culated there were checked over by
County Clerk Fred A. Miller and suf
ficient Qualified signatures found to
require the calling of the election.
The district, included in the pro
posal, embraces approximately 10
square miles, and will have an assess
ed valuation of more than $1,000,000
Under the law, they will be able to
tax for ten per cent of their valuation.
This will raise a fund of $100,000. At
present there are no estimates regard
ing the cost of the system, and no
plans will be made until after the
election. The district takes in the
territory from the north boundary of
Gladstone, to and including a portion
of the south part of Milwaukie. It
embraces the Jenning's Lodge, Con
cord and Oak Grove school districts.
Sentiment throughout the entire
district, according to J. Dean Butler,
atorney in charge of the legal work, is j
practically united in favor of the j
water district, and there is practically j
no doubt but what the election will j
carry.

SANDY DEPARTMENT
MRS. J. M. C. MILLER Correspondent
Iodern School at
Sandy Advocated
SANDY, Feb. 1. County Supt. Ved
der brings the matter of a modern
union high school officially before this
section in a number of letters which
have been received since his recent
visit here and gives figures that are
startling in their significance. He first
gives the valuation of each district in
the present union high, the total of
which amounts to $961,000.00 and says
with the addition of Welches, Sandy
Ridge, Marmot, Deep Creek, Bright
wood, Greenwood and Hill Crest there
would be an assessed valuation of $1,
428,000.00 "Many students of Clackamas coun
ty are attending school in Marion,
Washington, Yamhill and Multnomah
counties simply because we have not
provided adequate high school facil
ities for them in our own county and
the tuition to these four counties men
tioned was more than $21,000.00 for
the school year of 1920-21. Regarding
this phase of the question, will say
that we do not think it a sound edu
cational policy, nor good business, to
pay out to other counties -this amount
of money, when by a united effort on
our part we can build and maintain
schools second to none.
"While no definite figures are avail
able, regarding the cost of a site and
school building, we believe $30,000.00
would cover the entire cost." Fnther
more, Mr. Vedder states in his letter
that it would not, in his opinion, be
necessary to float a bonded debt, as the
voters of the H. S. district could auth
orize the board of directors to con
tract a warrant indebtedness. These
warrants could be then paid off in a
few years by direct taxation, and no
bonds need be issued thus savins
many thousands of dollars in interest.
"The special tax levy in theSandy
Union High (district No. 2) for 1921
was 2.3 mills, while a specil levy on
all property outside of high school dis
tricts for tuition purposes was 3.3. The
special levy in the H. S. district for
the year 1922 is 2.3 mills, and the levy
on outside property is 3.8. ,
"I am firmly convinced that the en
largement of Union High scnooi Dis
trict .No. 2 is the best solution of the
high school problem in your part of
the country," wrote Mr. Vedder.
It has also been stated that the out
lying districts will eventually have to
come in, and that it is much better for
them to come in now while they can
have a "say" in the selection of a site
and the construction of a new building.

prise. Then came the "bake-sale"! Cakes,
cookies, doughnuts, bread and taffy
were started on the "block" by Walter

Whew! but the money began to rattle
into Fred Proctor's hat and he could
hardly gather it up fast enough the
bidding grew so exciting. "Bob" Smith
got caught with a paper plate that
showed signs of having home-made
taffy on it for the sum of $1.75, and
Jack Barnett paid $1.65 for about the
same amount. And the cakes! They
"trotted" right up into dollars, but,
there was a sportsman-like crowd and
the "boys" enjoyed it! Even a loaf of
cold corn bread brought $2 it was
sold three times!
Harry soon sold everything and
could have sold more. He is "spotted"
now for the hereafter when any auc
tioneering is to be done.
Coffee and pie were served to all
present .then a group sang at the
piano, the children played, a circle of
I friends chatted and some of the men
played cards, so there was amusement
for all. Thirty-two dollars were taken
in from the sale.
The $29 already in the P. T. treas
ury was voted to be used for various
things badly needed in the grade
rooms. Mrs. Connors will now have
necessary material for the little ones

SANDY SCHOOL NOTES
SANDY. Feb. 1. Mrs. Connors re
ports her "health Crusade" as giving
excellent results. The children are
responding -"just fine," only two or
three that are not keeping up the re
quirements of doing "health ckores."
In five weeks each child that passes
the test gets a button to show service.
John Dickery is doing excellent
work in school, according to his teach
er. He is also perfect in deportment,
and careful about the health crusade
work.
The attendance is "too poor" accord
ing to the teachers, too many parents
allow their children to stay out a day
or two now and then which interferes
greatly with the work.
The epidemic of sores has about
"passed on," and nearly all of the chil
dren are back in school again. The
teachers urge better attendance now
to make up for time lost.
A new class in algebra being formed
in the high school for the coming term.
