A tree grows in perfect balance on
every side. When u large branch
shoots out on one side. one of equal
size or two smaller appear on the other.

matched by large root. The center

"a Brief Statement Of the Receipts
and Disbursements Of the Ward
County Schools.

Believing that every tax payer has
the right to know how the school
money is being expended and that
every resident should be informed as
to what Is being done in the education
al department Of county government,
the following brief report is made
through the courtesy OF the various
newspapers. 1t contains only a few
items Of of especial interest, as a, de-
tailed report would require too much
space and wouldsnot be carefully read.
The items cover the last school year,
from July 1, 1904, to June 80, 1905,
except the superintendent which is
taken for the past calendar year, Jan.
4. to, Dec. 81. In this connection, I
wish to call attention to the late law
governing the enumeration for appor-
tionment. Hereafter. children can not
draw apportionment unless they have
attended school sixty days or more
during the preceding school year. This
will cause considerable loss to some
some districts. which can be overcome
only through the vigorous action of
school boards in organizing new
schools and insisting upon full attend

These statements have already been

account of the>great increase of taxes

of the blame. and there is talk of an
organized effort to secure reduction
