At

board

outlined
the

projects
and
said
the
new

construction
was
necessitated
by
fast
increasing
school
population
throughout
the
district.
Temporary
structures,
such
as
a
log

house
at
Houston,
had
been
emergency
measures
to
meet
that
Increase
but
the
district
could
not
continue
to
get
along
with
such
temporary.build-lngs.
The
board
asked
approval
of
the
bylaw
so
that
school
construction
could
start
next
spring
and
the
new
school
facilities
be
available
before
the

of
