Tho most important business of tho even ing was that bearing upon tho construction of tho now Whlto street school building. After a recess of 10 minutes tho commltteo on building and repairs submitted its report showing tho following bids ; Josso 11, Davis, f 14,400 ; Joseph Hell, ?U,103 ;G. G. Jncoby, $13,875 ; Frank Wilson, $13.713 ; Shenandoah Lumber & Feed Co., $13,700 and recommended that tho contract bo awarded to tho lowest bidder, Shenandoah Lumber & Feed Co. Tho recommendation was adopted. Mr. Trezlso opposed tho irfotlon to adopt and voted against it. Ho urged that the contract bo awarded to Mr. Wilson.

An invitation from tho G. A. It. Post to take part in tho Memorial Day exercises was read and accepted. Superintendent Whit- akcr said an invitation had also been issued to tho teachers and pupils to take part in the ceremonies, but he was not prepared to say what action they would take. Ho thought an expression of sentiment by tho Board would help them in deciding upon some course. Director ,Conry said ho didn't think tho Post expected tho children and teachers to march up tho mountain to tho cemeteries, but only to tho north cud of Main street, and ho thought it would bo well to havo the teachers and pupils down to tho third, grade primary schools turnout on Memorial Day, Mr. Conry's motion that they bo requested to do so was carried. It was understood that in case of rain tho teachers will have tho dis cretion of disbanding the pupils. An application by Miss Bridget Flynn for a State Normal diploma recommendation was referred to tho teachers and salaries com mittee. Other applications aro to bo made and the Hoard will acton all at ono time. After instructing the building and repairs committco to preparo tho contract and bond and other preliminaries attendant upon the erection of the now Whlto strcetschool build' ing. and acting up'on bills, tho Hoard ad journcd to meet upon tho call of tho chair for general business.
