VOTE ON SCHOOL BYLAW TOMORROW Property owners in the city will have a chance to- morrow to vote for the building of a permanent school on Acropolis Hill. The school trustees spent a long time deciding on the best possible site. The members of the city council also took an interest in the matter, when it came before them, and discovered that Acrop- olis Mill was the only site available. E. BD. Johnson, former city clerk, stated before ‘leaving, that the payments on a per- manent building would not be as high as on a wooden structure. He is an authority on municipal matters and | strongly advocated the erec- tion of a permanent building. Already the schools are overcrowded and people are coming in every day. As Prince .Rupert .must .have schools if she is to prosper, there seems to be but one thing to do and that is to vote for the bylaw. it would be a disgrace to have to tel! the world that a large number of children were unable to secure an education owing to the lack of accommodation in the city. It would be a biack eye to Prince Rupert All ratepayers are urged to turn out and vote.
