it Is a pretty rncss, this shifting of

.pole, as required by law, at tile High
School building. 'Tllc selectmen admit
that under ordinary conditions it would
be their duty to furnish the pole forth-
with. bilt clnlin that It Is not up to
“" them at the present time. in that the
building committee has never turned
the school over to them.
On the other llaild. a member of
the building committee says be consid-
. 'E‘I‘S it is up to the selectmen and points
to an appropriation that has been
made for the pole. Personally he culi-
not see why it did not go up long

that the ilagpole‘s erection is entirely
a duty of the selectinen. the building
committee having nothing to do with
the carrying out. of the detail.
Won‘t somebody show somebody the

could display public spirit enough to

WHY?
Last fall. at a meeting of the board
of school visitors, it was announced
with considerable pride that the build-
‘ Ing committee was planning to ion
mally turn over the new high school
building in West avenue to the town.
indeed. It was added, that the school
would be thrown open to the public
for inspection as a finished product on
‘ Thanksgiving Day. it In almost time
to get ready for another Thanksgiving
' Day. but still the school is in the
. hands of the building committee, nev-
er having been turned over to the
town.
Now, why is this? Haven't the poo
ple of this town got a right to know
the answer?
