J ESTKI'SIASTir SCHOOL SPIRTT ! PREVAILS IN P03IAKIA.! ! The good paople of Pomaria made 3 , Ion? step forward about five years j ago when they voted bonds and built j a handsome brick school house which has become one of the assets of the i community, being used for meeting.-.! and entertainments of all kinds, ani ! it has enabled the people to discover j the school house, and they have in j reality made jr. the centre of the i cornmunitv. ' I I ?O? : In addition to this it has aroused the school spirit and there has been ! man'f^51" interest in the school from j h^srinniner. and the enrollment i has increased, and it has become nec- : e^sarv to enlarge the huildins' and to increase t'ne facilities, and the school , snirit is strong that at a meeting t on Tuesdav afternoon th<* sentiment i unanimous in favor of v>*ir>2r an j ?r7^5+inr>^i f>v f^ur mi^'3 ^or main- ! tenance of the school. This will en- ' stye the trustees to put in three j teachers and to se-Mire additional * State a'^ and will ^oon evolve into a high school. This is the goal which "i fhr> rnp-! apri women of the community J desire to attain, a high school. And why not9 The ta'vah'te oroner*v of i fhe district is more than at Little j Mcunain. and that community several. years ago erected a handsome build i *ne: and ha? mainta1*^0^ for ? nirmher * i of years a most excellent high School.

Mr. Wilson also invited Prof. TV. j E. Lake to s:o alonjs:. and we went in Mr. ^Wilson's car with Mr. Wilson at ', the wheel.

But he is cheerful ai say? it might have "been worse, a: ^ \ *ia is livinar as comfortable a* he ca and is always srenial and pleasant. ?o? But to the meeting. It was n lately attended: it was a busine meeting to decide a business pron sition of great moment to the cor munitv, and the men present werej earnest and interested. I made short talk advocating of course wisdom of increasing the tax, ar then 'Mr. told of some cf h e\-r>prif>ripa<: in levvine taxes ff schools, and ;Mr. Wilson gave a blacl board illustration of what it wou] mean to the school to levy this ta and then the sentiment of the mee toL-QTi anri netition writte llli; was ihhwj and signed by every one present asl ins: the county boa~d to order tl"1 election, and when we came throng the town on "Wednesday morning was told that about "three-thirds'' c the freeholders had signed it, an certainly tw-thirds had done si The election is ordered and the ta will be voted. ?o? This means much for the coir munity, much more than tl\e simpl - :uui fact, that the funds will ne avanauj for-the running of the school with on reducing its efficiency and with ar pther teacher added, but^'t also mean that the school spirit will "be kept u and the enthusiasm will continue t overflow. These are good neople dow there, the very cream of the eartl and .1 am proud of the privilege t have even a little part in helping o the good work for the community. E. H.
