White School Board Surren-
ders The Control In
The City.
TALK GRADED SCHOOLS
Change Came About as a Re-
suit of Legal Question
Raised.

A change has taken place in the
management of the colored schools
of the city which had been controlled
by the White School Board, by re-
quest, for the last two years.
No provision was made for the
management of the colored schools
by the new law, which did not in
clude the city of Hopkinsville, and
the trustees under the old law,
when they retired from Office, turned
the schools over to the white board,
Prof. Barksdale Hamlet acting as
superintendent, and the former col
ored teachers being retained.
The State revenues of SIS, 600 were
handled by the white board and
about 81, $50 of the money paid to
the colored teachers. The white
board also set aside $1,000 of its
own funds to help the colored schools
as had been done by agreement for
many years.
Recently Miss Jennie West, county
superintendent, obtained an opinion
from State Superintendent Regin'
stein that all of the State funds
should have been paid to teachers.
Miss West made a formal demand
that S646 &c, the amount not paid
teachers last year, be turned over to
her. and this has been done and the
white board has surrendered the
control of the colored schools.
1t is not clear what will be done
next. The schools will, it is said
revert to the control of the old law,
and Miss West will have to appoint
trustees to serve. In the meantime,
colored people themselves are much
upset by the change and may ask
the council to order a graded school
election for them as soon as possible
and take charge of their schoo
under a special law, and then make
some Joint arrangement with the
white board again.
Under the plan abandoned, they
had a superintendent without cos

MRS. w. B. ID. AVERY

S. Jenette Clement was born in Corinti
on July 81, 1887 and at a comparatively
early age began to teach school in hel
native town, displaying then the quiet
easy, but firm manner of directing child.
rem which was frequently remarked upon
by observers in her own home later with
her own children.
On January |, 1859 she married VIM. b
d. Avery and went to live at the home OF
his foster parents, Abigail and Alvah
Avery residing there until the spring OF
1889 when they sold moving to Bradford
where they remained until Mr.. Avery S
death in November, 1908 The following
year Mrs. Avery went to Hardwick to live
with her oldest daughter, Mrs I. G. Bron-
son.
Before her husbands death Mrs. Avery
had premonition that she was going to
be helpless, fearing it several years before
mentioning it to any one. The shock of
Mr.. Avery's sudden death nearly prostrat-
ed her and she never regained anything of
her former vitality but with many ups and
downs, slowly but surely, lost the use of
her limbs and at the time she passed away
she had not walked alone for nearly three
and one-half years and had not been
dressed for about seven months.
During all this time she never uttered
a complaint, continually bearing the same
calm happy countenance as when we'll
wishing to do for those around her as
habitual when able.
OF the seven children born to her, five
daughters remain to mourn her loss and
try to initiate her noble Christian spirit
Her last days were full Of pain, but now
she is beyond all suffering and receiving
the reward of a most faithful servant.
The Rev. A. J. Dutton was able to con-
duct the services at T.G. Bronsons' before
the loved remains were borne to the
r. r. station destined for Bradford and
thence to Corinth where the funeral
services were conducted by the Rev. Mr..
Legg, of Bradford and interment made in
the family lot beside her husband. Be
sides the daughters the deceased leaves two
sisters and fourteen grandchildren. Our
loss is her gain.
