| wish to ask Mr.. W. C. Moore a
few questions, and would like for him
to tell the people why he did not give
his reasons why the Board. called SC
many extra meetings. in place OF ask
ing me to become posted on the law.
Now, Mr.. Moore, you had better stop
expounding the law and do something
for the schools in place OF running
around over the country with your
tongue tied. | mean in the center
with both ends loose and no control
whatever over either end. = Why was
it YOU were so smart in the Sulphur
Springs school house, trying to change
the site, but were blocked long before
you knew it, as you found out in due
time. Then why have you gone ahead
and bought a piece of land at the
Chapel and paid for it without getting
deed for it, and as understand, you
will never get one, and more than
that, the people did not want the
school moved, SO this is for better ed
ucation. is it, 1t may be the way you
look at it, but why not see what the
people want and please them part
of the time and do not use big ''I'
and little "u' so much. You ought to
use the word people some, as it is
their money.
Now, Mr.. Dodger, as l will call
you, why did not you tell something
about why tho Board called so many
meetings. Was it done to show off on
for the money there was in it, or
were YOU wanting to serve the poor
little children Oh. yes. l know now,
he is going to break their necks for he
has bought ~ acres of bitches with
no shacks or water on it. Mr.. Dodg-
err, what is the matter with your Are
you wanting a petition from all the
patrons Of every school in the county,
like the one from over at your home
school. That was a nice one. All ex-
cept two or three were kind enough to
sign it, and one of them had job on
the new house, or he would have sign
ed with the balance.
Mr.. Moore, / hear you are out be-
fore the people again, looking fol a
good thing. This county is full of
them I mean fellows looking for a
good thing) SO be sure your head is on
straight as some roads are rough after
so many big rains. Now, Mr.. Moore,
state to the people why You wanted
two wells at Victoria. Was it so you
could say this county had twin wells,
or so as to have one for grown-ups
and one for little ones' But this
county sure is proud of the fact there
are no twin "Moore's" on the school
board.
Now, Mr.. Moore" while you are out
going over the country, try and make
tho school business as plain as you do
your own. People who want Office are
sure known to make things plain, SO
take as much pains to tell what big
"I' has done for the schools as you
do about wanting the Office. See
which you can stretch the longest.
I see what this county needs. 1t
needs men on the Board who have
else to do except be on the
board. Mr.. Moore this county would
have been better off If you bad been in
comfy and spent 40 days there
last year than it is now. and If you
spend 80 days this year with 2 days
pay, this county would not have gain
ed anything for see how the two
schools are stirred up. Is the Board
doing its duty? This is all in your
district, Mr.. Moore. What do you
have to say Come now, big "T' and
little 81" and make things plain, as
we are all SO ignorant as to need
things expounded to us by smart men
who know these things and like to be
called "Yours for better education"
without giving any proof with it.
Come on with some figures soon.
GUESS WHY.
