Your Mr. Rambler naks if I think
"it, was riv;lt. to close the so called
Fuller school last year." Yes sir 1
do and here is my reasou. To have
that school running cost the town
over f UfiO. Transporting the pupils
to the Fisher school cost ifdO, thus
saving tho town l'OO. The children
(few in number) got along very good
by this arrangement, and as conso
idatiou is the aim of our scoool law
it is timo it went into eff -cr. especi
ally whe'i the s-.'bool is as srna'l as
tho one in question. To r')-i,ien the
school the town looses that $200. be
sides tho pal rons n re nvk' ig for 1100
for repairs and school bools to cost
75 dollars. Rambler will see that it
would bo mora economical to l"eep
the school closed, nnd not stop at
that, but consol iila to more of Ihem
and eventually the spirit of liio law
will be carried out, when we ge!
narrowed down to one central grnd
od school In n town.

Mr. Editor :
To judge from your Paopao
correspondent there seems to be
quite a dissatisfaction in parts of
that neighborhood oa accou.it of the
change in the mail rojte. Be'ng
somewhat acquainted wi'h tha case
I am at a loss to know why any one
should find fault. In tlio first place
thePostOSTkeat Pa uprtc has not been
changed and the ma'l leaves and ar
rives there just the same as hereto
fore. There are five frtinil'es liv'ng on
the state road that Ob rough the
kindness of the iiinil car. ier) have
been blessed with a trarol ng Post
Office. Whilo some of them were
willing to pay somethicg for the ac
commodation, there were ottiors that
expected the mail carries to take
their letters in the morning and do
liver their mail in the afternoon 312
days in a year free of charge. Of
course such people feel Mint some
thing has been t:il:e,n from them,
still they have lost nothingto which
they were justly entitled.
On the other hand the mail goes
ut two hours hi t-er ii (he morning
aad arrives two hoars earlier al
night which it is very evident bene
fits nearly every resident of Bloom
ing Grove township
The change was mude in answer
to a potiticm gotten dp on the mer
its of the case, accompanied by a
map showing the proposed route,
and tho old one, signed hy iiicr?.i;
