■ SPECIAL ELECTION CALLED FOR ADDING 12TH GRADE TO WAKELON SCHOOL Continued from front page afford to add this extra advantage, which will greatly increase the fa cilities of our own school and greatly increase the advantages that our own children can get here at home. Some of the citizens in the com munity who have discussed this plan think that it is the greatest step the community has ever tak en along the line of school advan tages. We believe all of you will see this in the same light that those who have the responsibility of shaping the school policies see it, and if you do we shall have no trouble in uniting our efforts for securing this extra advantage for the children of this community. We are working solely for the twelfth grade, with the advantages it can offer, rather than for a ninth month. In a farming com munity the twelfth grade seems to be more advantageous than a ninth month. The tax rate in Wake County is now seventy-five cents on the hun dred dollars valuation, one of the lowest rates of similar counties in the State.
