Tabor, Heard Saturday. Mr. C. A. Epting appeared before the county Board of Education Satur dy, presenting a petition signed by about twelve or fifteen persons asking that Swilton school, in the lower part of the county, be removed to the old site at Mt. Tabor Church. The reason for the request, as set forth in the =, petition, was the desire to vote a special tax for the support of the school which it was impossible to do under present conditions. The petition was dismissed, and the school remains at its present site, near the residence of the Rev. J. A. Sligh. " This matter which has been in the circuit court several times, and in which the Supreme Court of the State has been called upon to render a de cision. The matter of the contentior is the site upon which the school is located, some of the patrons preferring that it be'located at the old site at Mt. > Tabor Church, and others preferring the present site near the residence of the Rev.'
