A LETTER TO NELS DARLING.

Ada, Kan., Feb. 5, 1916. Mr. Nels Darling, Kansas City, Mo.: Dear Sir—Our new high school building is Just completed and we are now using it. As a member of the school board 1 wish to thank yon for the help you gave us in your lecture here last fall I believe your lecture did more to change a lot of our people who, four years ago, voted against a high school than any other one thing. Four years ago we voted on building a school and were defeated by quite a large majority. Last spring we again voted and carried it by 2 to 1. Yours

truly,

J. H. KREAMER.
