GREW OUT OF COMPLAINT
FILED Ill II. a. SMITH

The decrease was the outcome of a
bill of complaint filed in the Henrico
Circuit Court last summer by r. a.
Smith and others. who alleged that cx-
penhiture of the county school funds
for the purposes mentioned WAS "A vio-
lation of the law, and asking that the
school board ami the division superin-
tendent he not only restrained from
further expenditure of the funds. but
that they be made to repay all moneys
already expended, and the county treas
uref be directed 10 place them to the
credit of the school fund.
The case was first heard by Judge
George s. Shackclford, sitting for Judge
Scott, who granted the injunction asked
for, ordering the board to move its
quarters back to Henrico Courthouse.
This was on July a Of last year. six
days later Judge William \. Moncure
overruled motion TO dissolve the in
junction. The motion was again over
ruled on October ..

BILL ALTERED ILLEGAL
EXPENDITURES OF $4,000

In the bill ii was alleged that the
defendants illegally expended about
$1,000 OF the school funds. and the
court was asked TO order this money
refunded Judge Scott held, however,
that, while the defendants acted with
out the law, the bill, as drawn was
not broad enough for the court TO de-
cree personally. but his refusal to enter
a personal decree was without preju-
dice to the right of any party to take
such action as he may be advised rcia :
tive to the refund of the money that, in
the opinion of the court, has been
illegally expended"
In rendering his decision Judge Scott
said that the powers and duties OF
the school board are in general super
yisory, and IL has lite 10 90 with
the actual disbursement of the school
funds. Its duties, he aid, are TO pre-
pare annually. in advance, estimates
of funds needed for the support of the
schools OF the county and districts Tor
the ensuing year and to submit these
to the Board of Supervisors as Il basis
for ievics for county and district
school purposes: to inspect the records
and accounts Of the clerks and the
treasurer: to direct the apportionmcni
of county and State school funds; to
make settlements with the treasurer.
etc The law. he said. makes no pre-
vision for the issuance OF warrants by
the board.

Son7etines the theater or opera gown has q short train, addedgfer the sake of dignity and impressiveness. which may be looped under by. an ar rangement of snap fasteners 50 that the gown is made comfortable for dancing. The restaurant gown. in con- trast with the ball gown. has sleeves of one sort or another usually sleeves of tulle or chiffon coming to the wrist but sometimes mere dIrny folds of airy stuff draped over the upper arm. Wo- men who seek their social diversion entirely in the gayety of the restau- rants do not hesitate to wear their jew els for the benefit of all who care to behold, but the highly bred woman who has sure place in an exclusive social circle hesitates. to deck herself out in conspicuous gems for a. public appear ance in restaurant--unless the occa-' sion be a select little party at some ex- elusive supper place after the opera.
 Every restaurant of the better sort has it's luxurious c1oalroom. where wraps may be checked if milady pleases, but milady is apt to wear her 1000 ermine Coat into the restaurant proper and let 1t slip from her shoui- ders to the back of her chair. where not only herself. but all the rest of the diners. may keep an eye on it's mag nif1cence.

Women in delicate gowns and magnificent furs wait at the the ater entrances tor their taxis, and if the distance to the favorite supper place be short elaborate dressed folk make it on foot. One thinks nothing of seeing hatless womens4 wrapped in gorgeous theater coats. but stepping in thin satin slippers. on the icy pave ment of Broadway, and everybody is happy, care free-so it seenls-intent only on the pleasure of the evening, the play just enjoyed and the appetizing bite just ahead
