The following resolutions were
then introduced and adopted:
Resolution.
Resolved, by the Parish School
Board in regular session conven-
ed, That the schools of the par
ish are sadly in need of addi-
tional funds with which to
operate, and that in justice to
the children and parents of the
schools of the parish. we deem it
necessary to take advantage of
the constitutional amendment re-
Gently voted which provides that
police juries shall set aside three
mills of the parish funds for
school purposes.
In support of the above, we
assign the following points:
First This body has for the
past two years allowed the police
jury to use the additional mill to
which We were justly entitled, on
account of the depleted condition
of the parish treasury. At the
time of this action, the police
jury promised to shape it's tinan-
cial matters in such a way as to
admit OF setting aside three mills.
We think that we have allowed
sufficient time for this body to
adjust its expenditures to its
Income.
Second This body cannot, in
good faith, make the assertion
that the needs Of the schools Of
this parish can be met with a
smaller levy.
Third-The overwhelming ma
ierity by the people Of this par:

In these days when people talk

In these days when people talk
loudly Of warlike preparations
and the need Of spending millions
Of dollars for new battle ships
and Notifications it may be well
to keep in mind that vast sums
are spent by the nation and the
statesfor projects that make for
peace and for the prosperity and
progress Of the people. We hear
great deal of talk about guns
and ships but little heed is paid,
except by those directly interest
ed, to the great irrigation works
that convert lifeless deserts in
to fertile tracts where thousands
of families make their happy
homes. Much is said about a
large increase in the army, but
too many overlook the agricu!rur-
al courses Of study and farmers
institutes that benefit directly
the immense and ever increasing
army of farmers, and indirectly
the whole country.
