By such a method of procedure our school board would make such levy and after all taxes had been collected, or after January, 1913, such money would be In readiness for the commencement of work on a new building, or it would take at least two years before we could see a new building begun. But, there Is a leas strenuous and a quicker way to accomplish the same end; by borrowing money to be paid on the installment plan, the building might be ready not later than August, 191$, and the Increased amount of tax would be ao small that it would be unnoticed.

First and foremost, It means a commodous, safe, and. sanitary building for the children in which to attend school when another years work begins, and, that too, at. the least possible cost Now, a few facts with reference to the actual cost of bonding fo the citizen: The tax levy this year in this district was eight mills, which sum netted the district $12,591.4$. Of this amount the public 'corporations paid for the individual or $3 per cent of the actual amount collected. If we apply these figures td the question of bonds we are able to make some interesting comparisons. If the district is bonded for $25,000, the rate1 being thd usual 4 per cent, and the principal to be paid In ten annual . equal payments, the amount to be paid by the cltisens of the district the first year would be. In round numbers, $575 principal, and $23 Interelt, making a total of $598. This sum would decrease every year as the principal grew- leas. The Tate of tax Increase, necessary to meet this wouU be approximately one and one-ba- li mills.. The property In our state Is taxed from 20 to 60 per cent of Its actual value.
