Paul, EHS used to graduate 150 students, last year the graduation class was something like 34. The hospital will no longer deliver babies. Every block in town has several vacant houses, assuming you ever leave Sheridan street you would notice that. Our population of once near 6,000 is now closer to 3,000.
