Jiibt what the directors arc going
to do with the school question Is
still a conundrum, but will probably
get together and come to some un
derstanding In tho near future. We
realize that the office is far from be
ing a pleasant one to hold, particular
ly at this present time. If there
isn't any honor in It, what is there In
it? Hut a school board must expect
to face these disagreeable things and
not Hunk. The effort being put forth
to reduce expenses is not alone with
Hawley, but we see tho same being
tried in many other places. A very
good suggestion is made public by
one niemher of the school board, ie.,
to let the objectors who want the
school expenses reduced and want a
change in the management get tho
signature of tho owners of one-fourth
of the assessed valuation of the prop
erty, then the board will consider
their demands.
