I j body, the Boro School Board called a mass meeting Thursday night of I last week to determine a location for a new school building. After the meeting had adjourned the School Board evidently came to the conclusion that if they undertook to pursue a course that was calcu lated to please everyone in the Boro, they would in the end please no one, not even themselves. With all the unoccupied lots in Laporte there seems to be some objection able feature to all of them. The old site on which the burned build ing was located is objected to be cause situated in a low place, and not convenient to reach for those who object to climbing hills. The location now selected is on Cherry street between Mr. J. V. Finkle's residence ade Prof. Ford's summer cottage. 2s'o action has yet been taken to purchase land at this point for a school building, but if the building is erected elsewhere from the old location, it will doubt less goto Cheny street. There is much agitation as to the material the building shall be constructed with, wood, concrete, brick, cut stone aud pressed steel, all have their advocates. Some want a moderate cost building suit able for all demands required, and ' others want a buildfng for style, ' cost not to he considered, as the future taxpayers will have the bill to pay and the interest to keep up. This same idea was advanced at ' the time Sullivan county was out of debt and needed a courthouse. If anyone believes the latter to be a good policy to pursue they should inquire into the "mancial condition of the county. It will be a very good object lesson for the Boro tax payers to consider. West Berwick lms succeeded in having a silk mill landed in its midst. With tin* manufacture of silk and steel cars the neighborhood of Berwick certainly has a varied industry. But the query is how the product of all the new silk mills is disposed of?
