TO OPEN MORE LAND
Patrons whose children went to the
old Middleboro Bchool, Mlddleboro
pike, have refused to sign a petition
presented by Township Trustee James Howarth to sell the building. There is absolutely no need for the building as a new building similar to the one in district "No. 9 is under process of completion and will be ready for use when school is opened in September. The attitude of the patrons is rather sinr gular and can not be explained. The law provides that in case an old school building is abandoned the township trustee may sell it at public auction if he secures two former patrons of the school to agree to the sale. The building in question is dismantled and is of no possible use except as a haven for tramps. Already it has become a rather famous resort according to Mi Howarth. He hopes within a few days
