The Nebo district is in a fine financial condition at the present time. Their is only an outstanding bond of $40,000 at the present time which is to be retired within the next two years Provo and Alpine districts both have bonded indebtness of near the $500,000 mark, and us consolidation of school districts is expected in the near future (A bill came near passing in this last legislature) it would put this district in with these other two districts which would make it necessary for local tax payers to assume part of the responsibility of paying for the fine new buildings these two districts have recently went in debt for. The question is asked; In view of this proposed consoli-latio- n, why should Nebo, Out of debt, go without these needed improvements and at the same time run the risk of help paying for buildings outside this school district? The bond election, if public opinion warrants it, will be held near the first of May. A public discussion is invited on this subject. The Board of Education gets forth these reasons why Nebo District should bond at the present time. 1 Financial condition makes it easy and feasible. 2 Need of buildings makes it advisable. 3 Growth of consolidation shown by Mills Bill makes it expedient. 4 Good common sense says Get your building program up to date at once. 5 Distribute money throughout the district as a means of overcoming unemployment now. 6 Pay in future on same low tax levy 1 The swimming meet that was held at Arrowhead on Easter Sunday was enjoyed by a large crowd.
