Palmerville, Jan. 30. -I notice in your paper a complaint from district No. 3, Ridenhour township. By request, I make this reply for the Board of Education.

The parties making the complaint evidently do not know how the money is divided. It is not apportioned to the school per capita, but to the townships. schools It is then apportioned to the in each township so as to make all the schools of each township equal in length. Not taking into consideration the number of students, but the expense of running the schools The board has taken into consideration this expense, as the law says, and has made the appropriation and the application the State so as to make all the schools in the county equal in length as near as possible This is what, the State appropriates $200,000 each year to accomplish. The board is following the State idea.

Are we right? We think it is 80 arranged that Bethel and Millingport will have the same length terms. I might say more, but I suppose whole people can comprehend the facts without my taking more time and space for details. Yours truly, EDDINS, Sect. of Board Card of Thanks. We desire to express our sincere appreciation to all friends for the many courtesies, extended during the illness death of our son.
