Why Arleta district is paying a achool tajr of ,-Tm lllak when other districts are paylnc but 1 and 4 mills Is explained by - a eomblnathm-Qfpeculiar circumstances. A year ago the dlatrlct had no 'schools " and practically -no children. When the ""schools closed laet week there were mors . than 0 pupils attending clasaes regu larly In the new buildings. With the completion of the line to Casadero the district was rapidly settled and hun- arcda6r fa rail lea moved to Arieta, r-- mont,' Stewarts and Leurelwood. which . comprised the Arleta district; - - Boms provision "hod to be made for these children? but there were no runas. T Not only did the district have no money. but it could,iiot -draw the $7 a child . from the state as more settled districts could do. for the children were really 'residents of other districts and during the. veer- these Dlaces that had once been their homes drew stats funds for ' the absent pupils, while Arleta had the honor of suddenly providing . for the crowd of youngsters that came In at the rata -of I8 - a weekntinaT'ths time when achool should haYo' opened, A hasty meeting of the board was 7, held and It was decided that temporary - buildings would have to be built and ..' ' that a levy would have to. be made lare-a enouarh to pay for these. Tern. - porary structures were built with room -- enough to accommodate the majority of the children, teachers were secured, and then the taxpayers figured out the dis quiet's debts and the property valuation , and decided that 41 mllU was the smsll eat levy that would make the district Independent. 1 The big tax was'-assessed -and raised end what is more peculiar, not a complaint was made. This summer two more temporary rooms will be built at Arleta and If the - tax amounts to 10 per cent or the prop ' ertv valuation in the' dlatrlct it Is still . the purpose of the taxpayers to pay - their bills. After this year, with state aid and Increasing property values, the district will be able to materially reduce ; Its tax and replace the temporary build ings with adequate structures. HEN DID DUTY WELL Had an In to Xar aad persisted la Itsylng th Same, Some people ..and ' hens have fame thrust upon them -while doing their duty, and Such was the lot of a Mount Kcott Legnorn Monaay. wnen ine e ' o'clock' Mount Scott car left the city that evening among the passengers wss L-S woman who- carried a small Leghorn hen.. .The hen was not confined and even Ha wings were undipped, but It had no desire to get away, and when the car stsrted.it settled down In the woman's lap with a slds scratch or two, ' as though It had been- raised on a streetcar. The car was bounding over "The" ToSiTbed somewhere near Mount - Tabor when the hen attracted attention by rising and cackling proudly. In vain did" the woman try to pacify' the xclted fowL While endeavoring to quiet the fowl the woman placed one hand under Its ruffled feathers, "and the explanation -. of the excitement was found In a small whlte'egg. When the egg was removed and the proper celebration of the event bad been made the hen settled down contentedly. . - - -r PETITION FOR DEPOT."
