INFORMATION, PLEASE
A surprising number of Kodiak voters do not understand
the purpose or reasons for the City and Independent School
District bond issues which will be decided October 2 at the
general city election.
Anyone having a question should attend the open meeting
which will begin at 7.30 pm Thursday at the Orpheum The
atre. The mayor, members of the city council and school
board members will be present to answer, or attempt to an
swer, your questions.
Do you v/onder why the ISD plans to vote on the $800,000
bond proposition when it is reported that the federal govern
ment has anproved a $600,000 appropriation for Kodiak?? At
tend the meeting and ask the question.
Do you know if you are eligible to vote on the bond issues?
Despite notices and numerous articles published and posted,
the question is heard many times a day on the streets.
What, if ; n \ is the penalty for buying votes is another
question that has been heard.
To obtain the answers attend the FREE open meeting
Thursday. And as an aided attraction the candidates for the
various city positions will probably make campaign speech
es. Besides having fun you will be informed and get your
questions answered.

rooms this year due to the
number of students. One is in
the main building and the
other is in a quonset hut.
Mrs. Burnham, regular
teacher for one room, has been
ill, and there have been two
substitute teachers taking her
place, Mrs. Warren during

Nothing is as important to parents as their children. Aside from
the love and affection in their homes, nothing is as important to children
as good schools. Many a fine family has left Kodiak because it didn’t
like our school facilities.
At last Kodiak can have a modern grade school, in one building,
with an auditorium-gymnasium. How much is it worth? We think it
is worth whatever it will cost.
But we can have it by issuing bonds fo>- only one-half the cost.
