Peck, who has been a member of the board for eightéen years, both these officerd” declining further service. A new collector of taxes was nominated in place of Alfred S. Curtiss, who has held that office for a number of years past, but according to the opinion ex- pressed at the meeting had become Incapacitated through age from thor- oushly performing the duties- of the number of nominated in l Moderator Ives. W. W. Ives was unanimously chos- en moderator When the meeting open- ed. He spoke briefly of the long Serv- ice given the dlstrict by Mr. Lefou and Mr. Pecl, referring to the latter as the beginner of improved condi- tions resulting in the present high standing of the district schools, which Mr, Ives said were recognized through- out the state as A No. 1 in every re- spect. On_nomination of George H. Stan- ton, John H. Sherman was elected as cleflc of the meeting without opposi- jon. Pfeiffer, Alofsin and Lathrop. Nomination of members for the board for three years was next taken up, T. H. Beckley nmaming Joseph D. Pfeiffer, a renomination, while he com- mended Mr. Peck and said that Mr. Pfeiffer was the kind of good material the district wanted the board. George H. Stanton secorided the nom- ination and Mr. Pfeiffer was voted on to the ticket by acclamation. He ac- cepted in brief remarks, in which he thanked the district for the honor it conferred upon him. Mr. Lerou nominated Herman Alof- sin to fill the second vacamcy on the board, styling him a successful busi- ness man, cne whose children had beén‘educated in the district and stood well in the comniunity, and the rep- resentative of a race which up to now had hdd no representation on the board It was time this race had some representation and the office in this case is seeking the man rather than the man seeking the office, Mr. Stan- ton seconded thé nomination and Mr. Alofsin was likewise placed on the ticket by acclamation. He also thanked the meeting for the honor given him and promised to give his_best service. ' Mr. Peck nominated C. Arthur La- throp for the third place, Mr. La- throp having been clerk of the dis- trict for several vears. Charles E. ‘Whitaker nominated Charles E. Lamb, but Mr. Lamb withdrew his name and Mr. Lathrop was elected by acclama- tion. For clerk for one year, J. D. Pheiffer. nominated Charles E. Lamb, but he declined the nomination, and Frank E. Sterry was nominated by acclamation, when nominated by S. Howard Mead. Frank H. Lovell, the present treas- urer, was renominated for the office for ona year by H. D. Johnson and elected without opposition. Contest Over Collector. The nomination for collector of taxes followed and brought out the only contest in making up the ticket. George H. Stanton nominated the present in- cumbent of the office, Alfred S. Curtiss, who has held the office for the past six or_seven years. Mr. Lamb arose with the inquiry from the school board as to how Mr. Curtiss was collecting the taxes for the present yvear. JHe said there was talk that the taxes were not being col- lected and he thought this was the time to thresh this out.

Lerou and Peck Drop Out. -~ o ¥ board by saving that they had had a meeting and that Treasurer Lovell had reported o them that there was now $399 of ‘the-present tax unPollected, ith thrée months left to get the rol- lections ip. Last year there swas $600 uncollected. 5 Mr. Lamb replied that he thought they ought to have a man who would do tha collecting or else put liens on the. property of the delinquents, and Mr. Stanton asked for a statement from Tax Collector Curtiss as to the reasons given by the people who did not pay their taxes. Mr. Curtiss replied by stating that the people made promises and put him off from time to time when he called uopn them, but he didn’t know of any particular reason which could be given why they didn't nay. He thought from $200 to $300 more would be collected on the present tax. In reply to another question from Mr. Lamb, President Lerou stated that the board investigated the delinquents in former years and had always in- structed the tax collector to put liens on. The amount of uncollected taxes has been growing with each vear. In 1907 it was $300, in 1908 $350, in 1909 $600. Some liens had been pldced, but not all that should have been put-on. One man in the attendance raised a laugh by suggesting sarcastically that Mr. Lamb had better settle the matter by taking the job himself. Paid $700 on Debt. Mr. Peck spoke of the cenditions, saying that the tax rate was higher than that of any other district, but this year the board had determined on one thing and that was-to pay off something on“the debt. This had-been done to ths extent of a payment of $700. He explained that the grand list valuation was small, two millions in this district to seven millions in the Cenitral district, but the West Chelsex educated more children. For that rea- son they needed to do ome of three things—either lift the tax ratd, get all the tax in or vote in favor of school consolidation. He thought the time had arrived for tonsolidation and he hoped all the West Chelsea men would vote for it. He said he knew no col- lector could take a man by the throat, but liens could be put on and he thought the majority of the delinquents would pay if got after. Mr. Lamb accepted the challenge to settle the matter himself and nomi- nated Charles E. Whitaker, but this gentleman declined becauss he said Mr. Lamb had stated he wanted & young, vigorous man in the office, and Mr. Whitaker felt that he could not meas- ure up to these qualifications. Chairman Ives statad that there was a way of collecting back taxes through bringing suit, and President Lerou ex- plained that if suits were brought it would be at the expense of the district, while liens were put on at the property owners’ expense. J. H. Sherman for Collector. M. L. Bergstresser put in nomina- tion: of John H. Sherman for tax col- lector. With two candidates in the fleld the vote was ordared to be taken by passing from right to left of the chair. S Howard Mead and Thomas H. Beckley were named as tellers by the chairman. The count of the tellers showed 51 votes for Mr. Sherman and 15 for Mr. Curtiss. Chairman Ives declared Mr. Sherman the choice of the caucus for collector of taxes. George H. Stanton moved tha nomi- nation of a committee of three to pre- pare and present fo Mr. Lerou and Mr. Peck suitable resolutions upon their retirement. Mr. Ives was made chair- man of the committee on nomination of Mr. Pfeiffer, Mr. Beckley named Principal John B, Stanton for the sac- ond member of the committee and Mr. Mead nominated Rev. Joseph F. Cobb for the third .member. This concluded the business and the Matter of Manual Training Left to the School Meeting. There was a meeting of the board of education of the Ceniral school dis- trict on Monday evening, at Which time the report of Supt. W. D. Tilson was read and approved.
