As a result the Green Bay school was built at a cost of $130,- 000.00. The opening of this building only served as a momentary relief to the Elm school. Last spring the board realized that the school could function as heretofore-only if funds were obtained through popular Butt. scriptions. Then representative men were called into consultation. They agreed to raise the necessary money. Four hundred subscribers were se- cured. They pledged $45,000.00 to be paid within three years,-$10,000 to cover the defieit, $5,000 for a play- ground director, and new gymnasium facilities.

The other schools will have to be enlarged to meet the rap- idly growing school population. While this district is not in arrears, it hu no monies available with which to meet the needs of growth. Like Dil- trict No. 107 it does not face the future with equanimity. Had the proposed tax amendment paused, many of the financial diMeultier that perplex boards and parents, would have been automatically solved. Un. til voters and legislatures alike shall have been prevailed upon to under. stand that only through tax equaliza- tion may we hope for a respite from these eternal timtneial turmoihs, we shall have to continue the unsound practice of mortgaging the future. h The attentiveUadienee seemed to generally concur in the opinions of the speakers.
