THE HIGH SCHOOL QUESTION. ''a l
AGAIN.
A gentleman deeply interested 'eHV
in the wellare of the Lancaster | (*rei
graded school writes n? in n I vest
private letter, a part of which meu
rte take the liberty of publishing, M
is follows in relation to the pro sK'
posed high school:

ablished schools in that district, i
