Spectal Dispatch to The Call. MILL VALLEY, Sept. 26.—Mill Valley has a school problem that is giving coun- ty officlals and men learned in the law something to ponder over. According to the present situation, twelye scholars of the Eastland School district will recetve the sola benefit of the $12.000 worth of bonds recently voted In that district. Before its incorporation about a month ago Mill Valley comprised the most pop- ulous part of the Eastland School Dis- trict. Early last spring it was decided that the district needed a new school- house and a bond election was called. It was voted to expend $12,000 in bullding and equipping an up-to-date structure. Not content with a $12,000 schoolhouse, the people of Eastland School District wanted Mill Valley Incorporated. The election was held, and after a bitter fight Mill Valley was duly incorporated as a town. Here is where the joker put in an appearance. The new town of Mill Val- ley, though containing nearly all the in- habitants’ of Eastland School District, does not comprise the entire district. By the mere act of incorporation a new school district was formed. What is left of the Eastland District is mostly undl- vided ranches. There are about fifteen school children resident in the remnant of the once extensive district. The $12,000 re- ceived from the bond sale belongs to the Eastland District. The town of Mill Valley does not like the idea of losing the blg schoolhouse. After looking up the laws, it was decided that the only thing to do was to go to Eastland with the ‘“glad hand” and a large petition praying that the Eastland- ites will give their consent to the merg- ing of the two @istricts into one and the erecting of the large schoolhouse where it will be most convenient to all. 1ne pa- rents of Eastland hold the trumps, and they may feel disposed to keep the $12,000 schoolhouse all to themselves.
