that lie would not subscribe for bonds

Whereupon some sharp remarks were
passed between the speaker am! this
man and the audience cheering the
speaker. The man's opposition only
tended to put the crowd in a good

helped Westminster to raise her quota,

McKINNEY PUBLIC SCHOOLS
CLOSED WEDNESDAY NOON TO
AVOID SPREAD INFLUENZA
Tlie McKlnney public schools all
cloned Wednesday :ls a precaution-
ary measure for the safety of tlie
children's health against the Spanish
Influence, that Is raging all over the
nation, but which has not hardily
touched our city as yet.
The closing of the city schools was
hy action of the School Board, which
met at 10 o'clock that morning In the
Collin County National Bank, with
Superintendent J. H. fVrllsle, Mayor
Finch and Commissioner Barnes pre-
sent and all acquiescing In the action
taken by the School Board.
Schools In all the surrounding
towns nnd cities have been closed.
The McKlnney School Bonrd feels
very much encouraged over McKln-
ney's immunity from the disease thus
far and decided to do all III Its power
to co-operate with the City Commis-
sion and the Commissioners Court
and the County Judge to prevent the
cpldnnvic. from spreading over this
count)' in a virulent form like It Is
raging in some of the surrounding
counties and some of the nearby
cities. Superintendent Carlisle and
his teachers have all boen alert for
several days In sending such pupils
home that were from families known
to have Illness In them.
The schools will remain closed in-
definitely but may be reopened any
day that the Board deems safe nnd
prudent for the public health.
The School Board urges parents to
keep their children nt home and cx-
ercise nil duo caution In safeguarding
their health. Keep them off the
streets and from mingling and mixing
In crowds anywhere. If this is done,
our fair little city can escape the epi-
demic which Is causing so much 111
iiess. suffering, sorrow and death In
neighboring towns and cities.
