Where the green brackens wave tc

There was no love lost between a
certain pupil and the teacher of a
colored school in Richmond. Moses
thought the teacher was too critical
to which effect he had expressed
himself more than once. with result
that he had been disciplined
"You are not giving attention to
what I say, Moses" said the teacher
one day during the course of a talk
to her class.

II there was ever any doubt as to
whether the additional water bonds
should be voted the last
Get Out q vestige Of objection
Heavy Vote. must have been re-
moved from the minds
Of all who visited the Thorn Hollow
project yesterday.
The chief reason why more money
is needed is because the board has
constructed a concrete pipe line in
stead Of wooden pipe line. No one
who went over the work could fail to
see the necessity for this change The
work being done is permanent and
substantial. The conduit along the
bluffs below Thorn Hollow is put
there to stay. The same is true of
the project throughout. II is the way
the work should be done and the wa
ter commission is entitled to credit
for the course it has taken.
The chief question to be decided by
the people tomorrow is whether to
complete the project this summer or
let all that expensive and valuable
work go to waste indefinitely. II the
project is to be finished $4,000 ad-
ditional bonds must be voted tomor-
row. Otherwise the board will not
have money with which to complete
the work and the present 100000 in
vestment will have to go unused.
The question is SO wholly onesided
that an appeal upon the subject seems
needless But It will not do for friends
OF the gravity system to go to sleep.
They must get out and vote tomorrow
and take no chances. There are a
certain number Of knockers and foes
OF the water commission who are 60
ing to vote against the special bond
issue. No one knows how numerous
they will be. The only safe way is
for every man and woman favoring
the gravity system to go to the polls
and vote for the bonds. The prospects
are for a light vote and in light
vote there is danger.
Get out vote tomorrow that viii
make certain the speedy completion
OF the water system. Women should
help as we'll as men. Get busy.
