Money for Schools.

The state auditors office has just
completed the distribution Of the semi
annual common school fund. This is
the first distribution ever made under
the new constitution. which provides
that enough money shall be paid from
the State treasury, added to the poll
taxes retained in the county, Tor that
purpose. 1t was found that 1920, 600
was necessary, and the legislature ac-
cordingly appropriated that sum. I'M
der the law two-thirds of the amount
is required to be distributed IN Janu-
airy, and the other third in June TO
lowing. The only money now consi
cred a portion of the common scheo
fund is the poll taxes. This is a di
ii net school fund, and is retained il
the county for collection. The rest OF
the vast sum is made up by direct tax
alton. Formerly the money received
from saloons was a portion of the
school fund, but the new constitution
wiped that feature completely out.
The distribution is more than three
times what the State ever distributed
before for this purpose, and is perhaps
the largest sum paid directly from any
treasury of Southern State. The
amount that each county and separate
school district receives is determined
by the number of educable children in
each, the amount being distributed
pro rata. The State has 5l6.183
children between the ages of 5 and 21,
that being the age fixed by the con-
stitution for educable children. All
OF this age or between the two figures
are entitled to attend school, and to get
four months Of instruction at the ex-
pense of the State. Distribution to
the separate school districts is new
departure made by the new constitu-
tion. Heretofore the money was paid
into the county treasury and then di-
vided.
Tishomingo county has 3472 educa-
bic children and this entities her to
So. 1896, in the January distribution.
Iuka is a seperate school district, and
has 305 educable children, and receives
1852, 40. In June there will be just
half the amounts given above received.
but the poll tax will be part of the
June distribution. A total OF the
January distribution received for this
county is 81, 1864.

An Illinois minister has the follow
ing good words to say for the local
newspaper, which will bear careful
perusal: "Your paper tells you when
to go to church, to county, circuit and
probate court, and when to send your
children to school, and anywhere else
you want to go. 1t tells you who is
dead, who is sick, who married, who
is born, and many other things you
would like to know. 1t calls attention
to business enterprises, advocates the
best of schools, of law and order in
town. 1t records the marriage of your
daughter, the death of your son and
illness OF your wife, free of charge. 1t
sets forth the advantages, attractions
OF your town, it invites immigration,
and is first to welcome newcomers.
But in spite of all these benefits, some
people say the home paper has no in
terest in their business or success.
The home paper. like the home church,
