Plain Talk From Ink.

Editor Star: The school election is thing of the past and if each school district did not elect the best men for directors it is the voters fault. and they should blame no one but themselves. claim that the of flee of school director is the most inn portant in the county. They have the control of the children's money. They control the destiny of our chil- dren, for if they neglect to furnish our children with good, competent teachers they will grow up in ig- norance, and ignorance means vice, and vice means ruin in this life and in the life to come. You find na- ton in ignorance and you find a people filled with anarchy. and you find g people in that condition and you may look for any kind of cussed- ness that it is possible for the human Htlflu LO liillih Ols JuS' WHY SO many men with large fami- lies will vote against school tax cant understand. Such vote means that he wants his children to be ignorant. Destroy our public schools and you destroy liberty it. self. The great need of Arkansas is larger school fund. The people of Polk county should demand a law of our representative that would give half of the money collected on saloons and half that is collected from fines to the school fund. We should have law to have all the school funds of the county turned in to the treasury and then divided according to the scholastic popula- ton. It is a great injustice to give all the funds collected from a rail road to the districts through which it runs. Yours for the right.
