STILL BORROWING MONEY.
County Board of Education Can't Get
Amy From the State.

The county board of education
held their regular monthly meeting
Friday.
The only thing of public interest
that was done was to instruct Com
missioner Wilkinson to borrow So
600 with which to pay the teachers
their salaries for April and May.
The state owes the county school
board $4,000 that has been due for
several months, but owing to the
fact that the state has been without
funds and hard pressed to meet it's
obligations it has not been able to
pay.
The board had already borrowed
several thousand dollars.
