At a meeting of the Trus-
tees of the Gilmer Independent
School District the question of
financing the school for the
year 1823 was raised, and they
see no way out of it save by
an additional tax.
A petition is being circulated
asking them to call an election
to vote ort the question of
whether or not the* tax payers
are willing to tax themselves
25 cts on the 8100 to supple
ment the fund.
The Trustees will" call the
section if there are a sufficient
number of signers.
If the increased tax measure

tees will close the,school for

as the fund is far enough in-
volved, with the present avail-
able resources, that it will take
that long to catch up. .
