dress OF young children Is often so

prevents activity and fosters vanity

DECISION Of THE SUPREME COURT
SETTLES ARDMORE'S BOND ISSUES

Mayor Cotner has received a copy
of the opinion just rendered by the
supreme court of the state concern
ing municipal and school bond issues
of this city, which opinion is of vital
interest to Ardmore.
In March, 1909. Just before the
commission form of government went
into effect and while the old admin
istration was in power, bond elec-
ton was held for water and sewer
extensions. septic tanks. water puri.
fication plant. street improvements,
fire department improvements and
high school and refunding bonds.
Some of the issues have been real
lied upon but others have been in
the courts.
The most important is the high
school bond issue of 100000. This
issue is legal, but the manner of
electing the present school board
was lIItkdl, anu VIII HdN'
to be certified to by the old board.
The opinion holds that the schools
are of general concern and are not
controlled by municipalities. All that
part of the city charter regulating
the schools OF the Ardmore distric;
is vtiated by this opinion and the
schools are placed directly under the
| control of the state laws.
The 100000 of refunding bonds Is
not legal. The school board must as
sumo all the school bonds that have
been issued, must pay back to the
| city the interest the city has paid
out on these bonds and the city Itself
must assume the payments of the
outstanding warrants and will have
to issue refunding bonds to take ~
these warrants.
The bonds for street improvements
cannot be sold for the reason thai
street improvements as contemplat
/ ed in this issue cannot come within
the purview of the meaning of Sec
p of Art. 10 of the state constitu
ton.
All street improvements must be
! paid for by the abutting prOpert,
owners. The paving of intersection!
and building of walks across tn
streets must be paid for by the in
diyidual and not by the city,
The fire department bonds are
not good for the reason that thu
