The citizens of Richmond vote tomorrow on the proposition of spending $160,000 raised by the issuance of bonds on the city's schools The bonds are to be for.

forty years and If passed the money will be expended in increasing the present number of graded school buildings. Balloting will be held at the Tenth street schooihouse on the east side and in the city hall building. The board of education some time ago appealed to the city council to approve a call for such a bond election, claiming that the great increase In population in the city within the past few years had made the school accommodations wofully Inadequate. If the bond issue is authorized it is probable John Nlcholl's offer of twelve lots in the Fern Hill tract will be accepted by the board and a schooihouse to cost not less than $55,000 will be erected.

My mother died six years ago and my stepfather married again soon after. I haven't been to school since my mother died and I went as far as 'the fifth grade.

When I came home my stepfather gave a phfpping and. I decided to leave." The girl has been living here as the daughter of Mrs. C. B. Griggs, under which name she passed.
