The bill recently introduced by Mr
Flynn, providing for the voting ol
bonds by El Reno for school build*
ingb is a matter of the greatest pon-
6ibie interest to tlit? city. El Reno
has one good school building and has
1200 children of school age. Under
existing laws tberw i< no possible way
cf providii g the hieans of supplying
the needful sell »ol i a iding except In
To’uniary c.ntributlon or ly sp c '
legislation such as .hat provided in
the bill Jntroduced by Mr. Flynn. It
Will certainly be a difficult task for
Mr. Flynn to get this bill through at
this session. There is no doubt but
that he will do it if it can be done,but
if ho does not get it through at tics
time and therein a short term ho may
be able toget it through then. Any-
way he should receive all possible as-
