ular school funds on the new building and the improvement part of the budget. The new addition was on the west end of the gym. As time went on, it became necessary to have more room. In 1951 four more class rooms were needed. A new separate room for the heating plant was needed, and reconstruction, improvements and repairs on the existing schoolhouse and gym were needed. An election to vote on $130, 000 bond indebtedness was called to be held April 23, 1951. At this meeting the legal voters then duly elected J. L. Westenskow, C. M. Hale, and Edna Jordan as Judges and Stella B. Huron as Clerk to conduct this election. At this election, 288 ballots were cast. There were 140 for bonds and 88 against bonds. After the election, one hundred and thirty, $1, 000 bonds were issued and offered for sale. The bonds were sold to the First National Bank of Portland, their rate being the lowest. These bonds are now being bought back or paid off at the rate of 7 to 8 thousand dollars per year. The County Treasurer holds tax money back to pay off these bonds yearly. During this year nine of the $1, 000 bonds will be bought. The payments are arranged so that by 1967 all bonds will be bought back. Mr. L. H. Russell, a contractor from LaGrande, was given the contract for construction of the new school building and also of the remodeling of the present schoolhouse and gym. This was done in the year 1952. Set in the midst of the Grande Ronde Valley, built upon solid and fertile soil, the west windows of Imbler School give a breathtaking view of Mt. Emily whose peak is covered with a white expanse of snow for nearly the entire school year. In the east, which the school is facing, is Mt. Harris. The Golden Reveries staff would like to thank the many people who donated their old school pic- tures to us and Mr. Leonard Billings, who furnished us with most of the school’s history.
