CEHARVILLE, OH® , FRIDAY, APRIh 16,' 1915 PRICE, $1,00 A YEAR « * ■* • f School Bond Issue Gets Large Majority. /• Decision of Voters in Corporation Almost Un­ animous While the Township Lacked One of Being Two to One on $ 7 5 , 0 0 0 Issue. / x* * Two thing* were'promtrient in the bond Issue election Thursday. One that the township sustained her reputation o f when doing any- thing by doing it right and setfond that by a vote o f nearly six to one the electors approved the board's action for a new- school building. It was also appearant that had the question of centralization been an issue It too would have carried by about the same vote. The result, was even greater than anticipated by friends of the proposition and a great surprise ot those opposed. Much of the oppos- ition wsa not due to the fact that a new building was needed but that a greater building wub *proposed than necessary. A ll through the past weeks the Herald has felt the public would sustain the board in their request. The large vote indicates that the electors have placed the utmost confidence in the board to build a suitable building where every con­ tract wilt be faithfully carried out and the tax payers given true value. For several years a new building has been talk, cl o f but such was impossible until the district could be enlarged to furnish a larger duplicate. We wish to congratulate our rural friends for their kindly assistance in giving the bond issue a majority, clearly indicating that the town people wore not endeavoring to force something on them. The vote in the township alone is conclusive proof that the country people want improved conditions for their own children and. are ready to share the expense. That is but the first step to central­ ization. The eleotion passed off very quietly and was a representative vote In every particular. The vote in the corporation was 211 yes ; IS no. In the township, 71 yes and 88 no. Th# total vote was 282 yea and 48 no. , Clifton U. P. Church Chimes. MRS. MARYTORRENCE CALLED BY DEATH. Mrs. Mary Mclntire Torrence, wife of Mr, W . !H.
