May Enlarge Mllwaukie Schoolhouse
Philip Streib, one of the directors of
the Mllwaukie District, said yesterday
that at the rate the attendance on the
school at Milwaukie is- increasing it may
be necessary to enlarge the schoolhouse
for next year. He favors the erection
of an addition with an assembly hall.
Mr. Streib says that the directors re
gretted the resignation of Professor Sey
mour, the principal, and that acceptance
of the resignation was dependent on se
curing Mrs. E. Bisert to take his place.
"As Mr.. Seymour could secure a much
better salary the year through than we
could pay him," said Mr. Streib, "we
did not feel like holding him to his con
tract, u the change was In line oX pro
motion, but we did make acceptance con
ditional on securing our former principal.
We appreciate Mr. Seymour's work and
