The attendance at the special town meeting Saturday afternoon af the town hall in Stafford Hollow was not ~s large as some previous town meet- inzs, but it was just as interesting. he matter befors the house was the uilding of a mew school house in Or- itville and the appropriation for the | zame. Mr. D. O. Connell and C. B. Pin- ney, members of the town committee explained the needs of the district and tola what the probable cost of a build- ing such as the district G6ught to have would amount to. \ H. F. Cady made a motion that the sum of $2000 be appropriated for the new building and that the site be left to_the town school committee. Mr. Plumb amended the motion leay- ing the matter of expenditure entirely in the hands of the school committee, and the amendment was passed. Mr. Plumb said, however, that he would be in favor of closing the Orcuttville school and transporting the children to the Hollow or the .Springs school. Mr. Smith, chairman of the school board did not think it wise to at- tempt to transport the pupils to the Springs school as that school is al- ready overcrowded. Mr. Plumb thought if 2 bullding was to be buflt..a good one should he put up and as he had implicit confidence in the committee he was patisfed to leave the entire matter in the nands of the commit- tee. Mru, Wverett Perkins, the only wo- man present favored a new school house nearer the village present structure, The committee will got busy at once and from estimates already received the probable cost of the new school house will be ahout $3,000. ‘Tt will be a_one room hullding to accommodate about 40 pupils.
