To the-school- system It will

Superintendent George .Hug drew
up the schedule to -be adopted if
the., taxpayers favor the , increase.
The sum ot $10,000 is" also Includ
ed, to be used for' repair, and main
tenance, of 'school' property.
This means that the school board.
if the measure is adopted, will be
able to havo work done said to be
