Push for a sanitary new English school building
An open letter from S. A. Beals and C. H. Noblitt urges English town voters to fund a new school in a sanitary location. They defend commissioning prior high school status, argue financial gains from continued operation, and warn of costs if transfers force redirection to other districts. The piece cites tuberculosis deaths and compares pike road taxes to a $7,000 school debt. It urges calm consideration and community duty.
