not in position to take sides on
the issue involved, nor to offer

sertion that no town in the
United States the size of Ches-
terfield has a finer aggregation
OF children of school age than
has this town. For bright eyes,
intelligent faces and well-formed d
bodies, they are not surpassed
anywhere. Any money judici-
ously spent in their proper de-
velopment is we'll spent.

! ItrOns
Of High School

- 4 ssN
A meeting of the patrons Of
the Chesterfield High School was
held last Friday night at the
Courthouse.
County superintendent of Ed
ucation r. A. Rouse made a re-
port Of the finances of the Ches
terfield High School District
which showed the finances of the
district to be in an unsatisfac-
tory condition. The total in.
come available for the past
school year including returns for
back taxes, was 81, ,274.93. Total
expenditures, 8,944.89, leaving
a balance in the treasury of $3.50,
and no back taxes available for
three years to come, consequent.
ly the funds available for the
ensuing year from the taxes col
lectable will not be sufficient
without resort to the sinking
fund.
Added to this deficit in actual
running expenses is the fact that
the school is badly overcrowded
and is In need of extension.
The question of an increased
taxation to meet these contin-
gencies was discussed, with the
result that motion was put and
carried favoring the circulation
of petition for an election
looking to the levying of an ex-
ira school tax of FIVE mills.
There is natural division of
opinion on the subject, some IA
voring q policy of retrenchment
OIL account of the present money
stringency, while others favor q
more progressive policy.
This is a. weighty matter for
the taxpayers to decide, but
it is safe to say that the public
spirit of Chesterfield county wilt
find the best solution possible.
In the meantime the columns
of The Advertiser are open to
advocates of both sides of the
proposition. Only brief etate-
ments that are to the point and
free from personal reference will
be published.

John L. McLaurin, state ware
house commissioner, comes for
ward with proposition that the
government should purchase 2,
600, 900 bales of low grade cotton
for the manufacture of explosi-
YES. He says this would sta bilze
the market and provide higher
prices for the remainder of the
crop.
Commenting on this PROPOSE
tion of Senator McLaurin. The
Yorkville Enquirer says: 1t is
not certain that the country is
going to need two million bales
cotton for powder making; but
we do not see how it can lose
anything by laying in such a
supply. If it should need the
powder, it will be available, and
if it does not need either the
powder or the cotton, either will
be easily salable before the 1915
crop comes in.
The purchase Of two million
bales of cotton by the govern
ment will guarantee fair price
for the whole crop.
