Dear editor,
The economy isn’t any better now than it was six years ago. In fact, it may be worse. Of course, it may not be any better six years from now.
The survey of merchants of their opinion of a new school was interesting. Why not take a survey of the kids that actually go to school and get their opinion of the present buildings? They’ll eventually be paying for the new school if it passes.
And why is the price tag so exorbitant on the 95 acres? What would the price tag be if it was for pasture or farm land? Something a farmer could use for profit. Why is it so sky high to set a school house on? And did the public know we’d be paying $12,000 an acre to set the hospital on? That is ridiculous and so is the price for the 95 acres.
Bonnie Johnson,
Iola, Kan.
