After he had called the largely at tended meeting to order, Committee- man Gebrath was elected chairman, and Walter H. Spaulding was chosen clerk. The clerk read the call, and James C. Blackburn, one of the com- mittee of nine, passed in the report of the special committee when it was called for. Clerk Spaulding read the report, which gave in detail the meet- ings of the committee, and its confer- ence with the town board of school vis- tes. . of the resolution, which was seconded, and then James M. Hiscox, also a member of the committee but not fa- voring the report, said that he had agreed not to oppose it if the commit- tee offered it without comment. He went on to recommend that the need of a new schoolhouse be considered during the summer. A George R. Sydleman told of talking with the principal of the school, who said that there was room enough in the building, and Mr. Sydleman went on to say that this was all the work of the chairman of the town board, who was bound to condemn the build- ing and was bent on breaking up the district. Mr, Sydleman said many taxpayers were opposed to a new school building. - Henry E. Davis opposed him on the ground that the school building had rocm enough and told of crowded con- ditions he had seen in the primary room. Fred Dyer spoke of his dissat- isfaction with the district. James M. Young came forward with sdme sooth- ing words of advice and advised that discussion on a new building be arop- ped until it could come up in legal form. Clerk Spaulding told of having a conversation with some member of the school board, who had told him that the district could probably have two or three years to get a sinking fund started for a new building. The motlon was then put by Chair- man Gobrath and passed and the meet- ing adjourned. PN HOUSE CLIB.
