REPORT OF F. 4. PEYToN
To the Hon. Board of Supervisors
of Claiborne County, Mississip
pi:
GentIemen:-I herewith submit
to you my second quarterly report
as provided by law, approved
March nth, 1919. | have made a
thorough and careful inspection OF
all of the roads and bridges in my
district and beg to submit to you,
regardless of the threats or intimi-
dations that have been made by a
few parties in my district. have
inspected all roads that are worked
by !. G. Harmon, or under his
control. l find them in very good
condition except the hills which
are not in good order and a great
many other places that have not
the proper drainage and are too
fiat. also find that all of the
roads are too narrow and do not
come up to specifications as to
width, which l think IS the most
essential feature in having good
roads. Realizing the duty that ]
owe to the county and to the peo-
pie who placed this trust in my
hands to do the best thing for the
best interest to all, and not any
special favors or privileges to no
man or set of men; therefore | rec
ommend that we pay ]. G. Har-
mon sixty per cent of what is due
him on last quarter of his contract,
have also inspected all roads in
my district now worked by D. J.
Taylor and find them all in good
condition except s miles beginning
at Rocky Springs thence to Hinds
county line, which are not up tc
specifications, therefore / recon
mend that we pay D. ]. Taylor
eighty per cent of his last quarter
Now, as 10 the bridges, | find al
of them in fairly good order with 3
few exceptions. find some bat
holes in Carlisle bridge that neeC
immediate attention; also Owens
Creek bridge, which | believe j!
getting in bad condition on accoun'
of decaying cross beams that sup
port the bridge. Also few othe
small bridges that are not SO i'm
portant need repairs.
Respectfully submitted,
r. A. PEYTON.

town as they ought to be, meaning
that they did not bring business
and turn loose great quantities of
money in the community. To
such sentiment reply can only be
made that schools are not founded
nor operated for the purpose of
making business or money, but
strictly for the making of character
and fitting men and women for
more useful lives. And be who
can be a part of the community
engaged in such work should count
himself honored indeed.
Few parents have money to
lavish upon their children while at
college and few institutions give
as much in return for the money
received as do the colleges of our
land. 1t does not signify that be-
cause a boy or girl is sent from
home to school that therefore the
parents are wealthy. more often
they are sent at a sacrafce which
make living at the parental home
The closer Every dollar must
count for its fullest value in the ef-
fort to educate the child.
And now l trust that I shall not
be classed as presumptuous by the
good friends of our schools, when
l make suggestion that we should
remember that we have committed
to US as city the sons and daueh-
ters of parents who are not only
seeking the mental training, but
the social refnements which come
from an old intellectual commun-
ity. Some we fear, in their efforts
to "make these boys and girls
have good time" forgetthat it is
not for the purpose of having
good time (as is generally meant
by expression) that parents send
their children to college, but that
they may employ every advantage
for mental, moral and religious
growth. Acting upon this KNOW
LEDGE those who have the man
agement of these institutions not
only must exercise rigid discipline,
which would protect from baneful
influences, but help in the building
of the strongest men and women.
Decry if we will, there is no dis
putting that the moral atmosphere
OF the institution and its surround
ings is a leading, if not leading
factor in determining the school to
which the child shall go. While
it may seem hard to the sympathiz-
ing friend that the boy or girl must
be restricted in privileges, and
guarded in outings, it must be re.
membered that the very purpose
for which they are sent to colleges,
demand such restrictions and pro.
hibitions. At other times they
might be unobjectionable.
In conclusion permit me to say
that it is the writer's judgement
that we owe to the managers of our
schools our greatest sympathy and
our heartiest support in their eff
forts to make them indeed oul
chiefest asset, 'sDon't kick bul
boost"

THE GRANGE

As an organization that holds TO
its ideals and at the same time
grasps strongly the practical duties
of the hour. the Grange stands
prominently worthy of attention.
With a keen business sense, 1t takes
up questions Of State, Nation and
home and with that inbred hope
common to farmers, studies the Is
sue and hammers away until sue
cess is assured.
The State Oranges are with us
this week and right welcome, they
are. Fitting it is, too, for the fun
damcntaI principle of the order rs
the home, realizing its ideal III an
educated citizenship. The inter
est displayed in the College by the
Grange is most promising and this
Convention will mean heartler ap-
preciation and understanding OF
the needs and demands OF the hour.
An especially pleasing feature is
the agreement Of the Charter Com
mittees. The old Board III their
spirit of generosity have agreed on
the plans proposed and will prob
ably deed their portion of the Col
lege property to the State. Judg-
ing from expressions of apprecla-
ton and approval these Trustees
have builded "better than they
knew
70 the minds of many, this will
Ynean State wide interest and sup
port heretofore not experienced.
Our columns are given to the
Grange news and we urge our
readers to study carefully the ad-
dress made by the State Master,
appearing in full in this issue.
TO THE GRANGERS-
You are right welcome. Come
again.
