one in which a doarth of land would

NURSE AND SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
Editor of Evening Sentinel:
it was inferred in this column Salur.
tiny evening that the employment of a
school nurse at a aaiuiy of $800 or $1, -
000 would indefinitely postpone the
:eroclion of much needed school build
iiiiga. Possibly i am misinformed, but
{I understand that the voters of this
cit)" laat .iiiuo approved a. bond insuo
for $200,000 for new buildings. is it
likely that theac bonds would not be
made available‘by tho. authorities he-
causo oi‘ the expenditure of $800 or
$1.000 ii year for ii school nurse?
1 Why try to confuse the issue? Now
ibuildingn are certainly neceaaary.
Surely no one with any BPHHB oi" jllii-
ltice to our school childron will deny
this statement after reading the apo-
\rlal report. of the superintendent to
.the town school committee (January.
‘ 1013,) or the special report. printed in
