sioners of Garrett County a sum of
money out of the State school tax.

ulation of Garrett County, the largest
county in the State in area, as to render
school facilities for all of the children
more expensive than in more central
parts of the State; and
Whereas, 1t has been unanimously
recommended by the State Board of
Education that such sum of money
should be paid out of the State School
fund to the board of School Commission
ers of Garrett County; therefore,

IN INTEREST OF
ORPHAN CHILDREN

Rev. B. T. Cover, of Tullahoma,
was here Saturday. Rev. Cover is
travelling in this valley in the interest
Of orphan children. Where he finds
orphan children who are destitute he
places them in comfortable private
homes. This, he says, is far more
satisfactory than the placing Of them
in homes such as the Chattanooga
place which was the subject of such
discussion last year. He says If noti-
fed that he will come and get them
and see that they are well taken care
Of, and anyone having orphan child
rem, or DESTROYS of placing orphan
children in good homes, can do so by
writing him at Tullahoma. Rev.
Cover is greatly interested in the
work, and solicits the support and as
sistance of all good people. He styles
his work as "The World Wide Home
Mission Rescue and Charity Work, "
with himself as president. He left for
Jasper same morning, as he found no
destitute children here, and had been
in Whitwell the day previous.
