The general plan is to leave the primary and grade school districts as they are, but to consolidate a number of districts, possibly as many as 24 districts in the north art of the county, into a high school district. . If the full ca pacity of the Woodburn school- house that is to be the district headquarters, is utilized, the dis trict will cover these 24 districts under consideration, with a pres ent assessed valuation of S8V000,- 000. This may be cut down both in area and in valuation, if not all of the districts go into the central unit. Woodburn Makes Offer. Some interesting figures are given out as showing what can be accomplished by such consoli dation. The district at Woodburn offers to give Its fine high school building, that cost $75,000, to the big district. The building is not fully paid for, there being 130. 000 still due. The district offers to lease building to the big dis trict, for the nominal rental of $1 a year for the next 15 years, dur ing which time it is paying off its present bonds at the rate of $2,000 a year. At the end ot 15 years, the district will deed the building, paid for, to the big dis trict that has paid not a penny for it. At present, the general rural school tax for paying the tuition ot high school students who have $p go outside of their districts for high school, is 2.4 mills; last year it was 2.3 mills, and next year it will be higher than this year.- In Clackamas county, U is now 3.5 mills. It Is estimated that hte cost of the big consoli dated high school district, will be not to exceed 4 mills, with trans portation for every pupil in the district; much less than it now costs any one having children to go to high school, and probably less than it will cost even the non high school taxpayer. Transportation Cost Figured Itl is figured that if the full 24- district and $8,000,000 valuation consolidation is effected, the fine Woodburn scboolhouse will not be filled to its normal limits, and that enough pupils will be picked up from the adjoining districts. and paid for by the state tax for maintaining high school facilities for those not having high schools at home, to pay for the transpor tation ot both those in and thost outside of the consolidation. It is estimated further that while the Woodburn high school cost will be cut fully 75 per cent, the cost to those who send pupils from the adjoining district will be consid erably lowered, considering the transportation and the fact that the students can live at home for one-quarter what it costs them to attend school and pay board away from home, and the benefits wii be almost equally distributed all the patrons, both in and out side of the city. The building up of a far bigger, stronger, better equipped school, that can special- lie in all its departments and give a quality of instruction never pos sible in the small high school, is given as one of the sure benefits of the consolidation. Banquet Is Held. A banquet was held at Wood- burn, Friday night, attended by the directors of a number of the outlying districts. The matter has not yet been fully arranged, but it is said that the financial and educational benefits to be achieved are such as to make the consolidation a practical necessity. her that Kenneth Stockbridge had confessed to the murder of his wife. "Has he been " Alice Hol- combe asked. Lillian answered her eye Yather than her words. "He can do no mor? harm," she said promptly. "I have that here." she tapped her forehead grimly, "that will turn Mr. Bridgeham Hambridge WI1- sey into the most whining yellow cur that ever begged for mercy. But I've got to geUJiold of him first, and that is where you can help me." Again Alice Holcomb- looked at her steadily. "I am ready for anything." she said. "It won't be much of a task." Lillian replied reassuringly. "You'll simply have to play- a waiting game for a few days, and be always ready to leave anything at a moment's notice and come to us at Marvin." She relaxed into a comfortable attitude with her hands loosely clasped on the table in front ot her a pose which told me that Lillian had attained the main ob ject of her expedition, and that all the rest was merely a matter of detail, and said: Lillian's Plan. "You see. it's a ojnch, lead pipe, that he will make one more at tempt to frighten out of you girls what he thinks you know. I'm practically certain that without the knowledge of those telephone conversations so damaging to Mr. Stockbridge, of which Madge alone knows the truth, that they will be unable to connect up their case of course, they can't put those in evidence, but they would of incalculable value to the prosecution, notwithstanding. So it will be our little job to see that they don't get them. And when get through with MrvJake Wil- sey I nope tnat our own eiock oi information will be materially in creased. 'I haven't the slightest Idea, of course, which one or you ne win tackle first," Lillian Went on spec ulatively after a minute's pause, 'but if he tries to see you. Miss Holcombe, please register all the shrinking panic you can assume.' I shan't have to assume any thing." Alice Holcombe retorted grimly, in the first flash ot her old manner I had seen. "The pan ic will be perfectly real. 1 can as sure you, but I'll do anything you say." "The more realistic the better," Lillian said. "Do or say anything you please, bet get him over to our place upon the pretext of your wishing to see Madge, and let us know in some way that you're on the road. Is there any one In your house that you can trust to telephone us as soon as you have started?" Then That's Settled." "No one In the house knows , anything about this man, so I think I could gtve my mother a message to pnone you wnicn would tell her nothing and you-i everything." I stared at my former col league fascinated. One could see the transformation from a grief- stricken, despairing woman to the capable person she used to be, suffusing her. Lillian's hopeful words, and the prospect of doing something definite in aid of the man she loved had worked a mir acle in her appearance. Lillian flashed a commenda tory elance at her which 1 was glad to witness, for I had seen clearly that she had not quite ap proved of Alice before. Lilian likes people to take things standing. and she sometimes faljs to realize that there are tew women in the world with her Iron will and per fect poise. - :,; -That is all that's necessary, then. she said. "Hold yourself la readiness to bring him over to us wheneTer .be comes, and let as have warning of your coming- H be tackles Madge first we will send for jourif it ia necessary, but spare yon the ordeal If we can. One thing, don't let him gueas your wish to bring him to Mar vin. I leave it to your own finesse to let believe that he has fright ened you into wishing Mrs. Gra ham's advice," "He will not suspect." Alice Holcombe's lips were set In a grim, tight line, which some of her refractory pupils knew to their sorrow. "And I will see that he arrives, at the place you wish when you wish." "Then that's settled." Ulllan drew a deep breath and rose from the table decisively. "We don't need to waste any. more time, for it I know the man. he's hunting one of you this very minute." We summoned Mrs. Wynne, paid our bill, and passed out of the tea room. As we climbed into the car I noticed an empty road ster standing a little way from our, and wondered vaguely where its occupants could be, as no one had come into the tea room while we were there. And then to my recently acquired motoring sense there came the conviction that I had seen the car before. I scruti nised it more closely, caught my breath in a panic, and threw my car Into high. I had only One de sire to get Lillian away from that particular spot. For the car was the one which Harry Underwood had driven along the wood road to Southamp ton!
