These questions are in good order and WP are glad to furnish tbe infor¬ mation, and regret we did not cio so sooner.
We are indebted to Mr. Johnson, Piesident of the Board of Education; for tbe information contained in tbis reply.
We bave numbered the questions presented in the foregoing letter of Mr. Sealy in order that tbe answers may relate diretiMy tn tbe questions mentioned. Answers are given nu¬ merically as follows:

Can it be sbonn wherein a new high, school will increase tbe value of our property sufficiently to offset tbe additional tax? It is erron¬ eous to imagine tbat tbe building of a new high school at Freeport will in¬ crease its population. Aa it stands new, we are overburdened witb taxes, wbieb if increased, may tend to drive away some of tbe old residents.
Surely it won't be an inducement for prospective buyers to locate at Freepirt.
Tberefore, let tbe whole obnoxious proposition be publicly denounced. Let the people of Freeport combat it with a mighty protest, either by vote or petition. Let the three schools al¬ ready built increase their numbers, and fill out tbe vacant seats; tbere is room.
Mrs. Gustave Abel, 65 Robe Street, Freeport, N. Y
that our voters are approaching this question in an intelligent and fair- minded way, and are desirous nf adopt¬ ing such propositions us shall be best for our boys and girls.
We wish particularly to impress the fact that tbe time bas come for ua to take care of our high school depart¬ ment and that th>s need should not be confused witb the care which we ought to tske of our grades. The needs of the grade classes are not neg¬ lected in the propositions submitted, because in this new school building, in addition to the facilities provided for the high school department^ there are also rooms w^ich can be used for grade classes to the number of about 400 pupils.

Freeport, Feb. 19, 1911. To tbe Votera of Frerport:
In view of our coming school meat¬ ing to be beld on Fridsy, Feb. tl, 1913, st 8 p. ro., to decided whetbaror not tbe voti ra of Freeport shall vote to appropriate $12,000 for a sita an Rsndall Ave., between Bergen Plaea, snd Wsllace Street, and theraoa to erect a school house te coat $126,000, I would like to ask a few qoestiona of tbe Board of Education, aiso of the voters of Freeport School District, No. 9:
1. Wby shall tbe voters of Freeport pay $12,000 for a school site whesa as« sessed vsluatiun is only $*,250?
2. Wby sball tbe school proposed cost $126,000 wben a village like Saa ClifT builds a high achool according to the laws of tbe State for $70,000 that will accommodate 700 scholara and'tfae one proposed by oor Board is to ac¬ commodate 650 scbolars?
3. Why such congestion in Seaman Avenue School when it is or was ¦
i known fact that there were grade scholars attending tbat did not belong I in the school district unless it has been I changed since tbe voters have been I asked to appropriate more money for 11 {new school by our Board of Edaca¬ tion?
4. If our village needs more ac¬ commodations for its school children why not add to the piesent schools as there is plenty of ground on all tbe present sites to accommodate 1,000 more children.
The Buanl must be deeply affected by what one thoughtful citizen said in regard to patriotism when it overlooks thu facts that it is dollars and cents that the Board calls for, to bc voted and paid for by the voters of Freeport which have to be considered. There is no doubt whatsoever in my mind as to the patriotic feeling of the voters of Freeport as te the educating of its boys and girls which can be proven by their repponae in the past; it ia not necessary to go any further than the Board's own circular to see that tiie

4 Thi answer to this questioii has been included in tbe preceding answer. It can readily be aeen, however, that tbe overcrowded condition of the Grove Street and Seaman Avenue Schools botb in the grades and high school department, make it more diffi¬ cult to do effective work.

The Grove Street Schoul is not in a position to be enlsrged as it woold require sbeot twenty feet on tbe east side out of Freeport cemetery.

We are indebted to Mr. Johnson, Piesident of the Board of Education; for tbe information contained in tbis reply.

Can it be sbonn wherein a new high, school will increase tbe value of our property sufficiently to offset tbe additional tax? It is erron¬ eous to imagine tbat tbe building of a new high school at Freeport will in¬ crease its population. Aa it stands new, we are overburdened witb taxes, wbieb if increased, may tend to drive away some of tbe old residents. Surely it won't be an inducement for prospective buyers to locate at Freepirt. Tberefore, let tbe whole obnoxious proposition be publicly denounced. Let the people of Freeport combat it with a mighty protest, either by vote or petition. Let the three schools al¬ ready built increase their numbers, and fill out tbe vacant seats; tbere is room. Mrs. Gustave Abel, 65 Robe Street, Freeport, N. Y that our voters are approaching this question in an intelligent and fair- minded way, and are desirous nf adopt¬ ing such propositions us shall be best for our boys and girls. We wish particularly to impress the fact that tbe time bas come for ua to take care of our high school depart¬ ment and that th>s need should not be confused witb the care which we ought to tske of our grades. The needs of the grade classes are not neg¬ lected in the propositions submitted, because in this new school building, in addition to the facilities provided for the high school department^ there are also rooms w^ich can be used for grade classes to the number of about 400 pupils.

To tbe Votera of Frerport: In view of our coming school meat¬ ing to be beld on Fridsy, Feb. tl, 1913, st 8 p. ro., to decided whetbaror not tbe voti ra of Freeport shall vote to appropriate $12,000 for a sita an Rsndall Ave., between Bergen Plaea, snd Wsllace Street, and theraoa to erect a school house te coat $126,000, I would like to ask a few qoestiona of tbe Board of Education, aiso of the voters of Freeport School District, No. 9: 1. Wby shall tbe voters of Freeport pay $12,000 for a school site whesa as« sessed vsluatiun is only $*,250? 2. Wby sball tbe school proposed cost $126,000 wben a village like Saa ClifT builds a high achool according to the laws of tbe State for $70,000 that will accommodate 700 scholara and'tfae one proposed by oor Board is to ac¬ commodate 650 scbolars? 3.

If our village needs more ac¬ commodations for its school children why not add to the piesent schools as there is plenty of ground on all tbe present sites to accommodate 1,000 more children. The Buanl must be deeply affected by what one thoughtful citizen said in regard to patriotism when it overlooks thu facts that it is dollars and cents that the Board calls for, to bc voted and paid for by the voters of Freeport which have to be considered. There is no doubt whatsoever in my mind as to the patriotic feeling of the voters of Freeport as te the educating of its boys and girls which can be proven by their repponae in the past; it ia not necessary to go any further than the Board's own circular to see that tiie Fire Uepartment maiters. , votera have been very good to appro- As to hew the Village Treasurer's priate money for our schools. ing $46 per pupil and tbe total amount received from tbat s lorce Owing to crowded conditio IN report should be printed.

It can readily be aeen, however, that tbe overcrowded condition of the Grove Street and Seaman Avenue Schools botb in the grades and high school department, make it more diffi¬ cult to do effective work. 6 As a record is only kept of the children atttending school, it cannot definitely be known bow many outsid¬ ers woold attend our schools hsd we not been compelled through la:k of room to raise the charge. 6 The Board of Education bas care- folly considered all the various meth¬ ods which are being discoshed to meet oor present school needs.
