Additional Buildings Will Be

to Be Educated .
The Rotary Club is making every
effort within its power to get those
people to the polls prior to tomorrow
afternoon who want to express them-
selves on the school bond question
vto be voted on early in May. The
club is neither favoringnor opposing
the bonds, but is seeking to get an
oTTirossinn nf t.hft DeoDie on the mat
ter. This was thoroughly discuss
at last night's meeting of the chio
when ' a committee was named to
handle the matter.
The club is not seeking . to influ
ence anyone to register who does not
intend to vote and members hope that
this policy will not be followed. Even
if one opposes the issuance of the
bonds club members want them to
' go to the polls and say so by casting
a vote and not permit their registra
tion to count.' The Rotary 'Club is
after an expression of sentiment.
It Is 1eing pointed out that the
schools are already overcrowded and
that additional facilities would be
necessary even were the old Union
