I By a unanimous vote tho Board of Education at a speciRl meeting held last evening decided to submit a proposition to vote sixty thousand dol lars for a Junior high school building This election will be held on December Ttn. While rfinlte phvn cf the building lme nt 1 .vn prepared, tho general plan la to erect a building on the north line of the present high school grounds that will be 05x190 foot threo stories high. Tho basement, the floor of which will be practically level with tho ground, will contain rooms for manual training, domestic science and lucludo six shower baths for thoio who angnge In athletic or gymnasium work. On the first floor there will bi twelve school rooms, and ou the sec ond or top floor there wil be four school rooms nnd an auditorium C5.S8 feet, with bnlcony, the whole to havo a seating capacity of about 1,000. This auditorium will also ho used as a gymnasium. The rooms will be used to accommo date the pupils of the seventh and eighth grades In the ward schools thus relieving the congested conditions there that now exists, and to relievo the crowded condition of the present high school building the ninth grado will be transferred to tho new binding. While the proposed now building may be somewhat larger than at pres ent needed, tho board believes that tho mistakes of the past should not bo re peated, namely, that each school build ing erected has been too small they wore erected for present needs and not for tho future. Had we erected a SGO.OOO high school building instead of one costing $30, 000, and erected ward buildings cost ing $40,000 each Instead of $20,000 each, we would have shown better Judgment than we then exercised. However, to remedy our past lack of Judgment the proposed buidlng must bo erected. We are face to face with a necessity a prooiem or greater school accommodations, and we must solve the problem like men without unnecessary delay.

It is our sincere Intention to estnblish a Swedish church In North Platte. The Augustana Synod Is too actlvo all over tho country to lot op portunity go by, where it po given, not to build up churches In communities In which thoro aro Swedes. Wo do not Intend to build up a church by robbing our brethern of other church es, but it Is nn established fact that the Swedes, like othor people, possess tho free will of deciding in which language they deslro to hear and practice their roliglon, and tho English speaking element ought to 'respect it. Honco perflations to tho contrary works disastrous and poople so united as tho English Lutheran with the Swedish Lutheran, both doctrinal and ecclesiastical ought to Join heart and hand, und it is my opinion that tho di versity of tongues is to its nntiiro In significant and inforlor in viow of the great purpose of all Luthoran church es.
