The school board are of the opinion
that their success came through the

showing the people just what kind of a
building they intended to build, just
haw much It would cost and how easily it would be to pay for it. In the
presentation of a school bond a few

Even non-residents of the state who

Although the attorney general's of-

estimate that fifty per cent of the motorists of the state will have to file
such statements by reason of possessing curs that huve had previous ownership when tho law goes Into effect.
It may be suld, however, thut the
