EDITOR LOG CABIN DEMOCRAT:
 1 will call the attention of school directors to the decision of the su- preme court relative to the purchase of school supplies, such as maps, charts, etc.
 ''Directors of common school dis tricts have no authority to eXpend money for maps, charts and similar school equipment, unless the eXpendi- ture has been authorized by the cleo tors of the district, and the equip ment purchased shall have been sub mitted to the state superintendent of public instruction for his approval. " Since I took charge of the treas urer's office the rural routes created by the postoffice department have caused me to jose the address of school directors in many localities. After the election let directors send me their address immediately, as I am required by law to make financial statement to every school district in the county.
