TnRESHING BARLEY
FAIRLY GOOD VI Id
WHEAT CUTTING WILL BEGIN
THE LATTER PART OF THE
PRESENT WEEK.

Barley threshing is ON and several
crops have already been knocked out
Reports are gratifying, considering
the fact that farmers were of the
opinion that the crop would be con.
siderably lighter than it is turning out
Ben Fly was in town Monday and re-
ported that his rig had threshed out
two crops one for Sidney Estes that
yielded twenty-one bushels to the acre,
and that Emmett Taylor's crop of
twenty-five acres turned out 721
bushels, or twentyeig and a frac-
ton bushels to the acre. This is
much smaller yield than that Of 1915,
but it is coming up better than was
at frst anticipated.
Mr.. Fly announced that his rig was
also threshing some crops OF crimson
and alsyke clover, and that the yield
was exceptionally good.
Wheat cutting will begin about the
middle OF this week and by the frst
of next week it will be on In earnest.
The past several days has greatly i'm
proved wheat and what at first looked
like a half or less crop Is going to
make much better showing.

JOINT COMMITTEE
TO CONCLUDE WORK
AND REPORT SOON
EXPECTED THAT FINDINGS WILL
BE SUBMITTED AT JULY
TERM OF COURT.
LITTLE REMAINS TO BE DONE
Charges Have Been Pretty Well Dis
counted and Punetured by the Evi.
dence 90 Far Adduced in the Opinion
OF The Public.

Much more rapid progress was made
in the road and comfy officials inves'
tigation by the Joint committee on
Monday than had been anticipated
When the committee meets again on
June %, it will at once take up the
cases against Justices of the Peace
10 T, Wilkes, John B. Brooks and ]. ].
Pogue and Wash P. Russell and hear
their explanations of warrants issued
TO them and embraced in the Wilkes
charges. It is not expected that it
will require very much time to hear
these cases. All the other cases
against members Of the county court
were disposed of at the session Mon
day.
After the remaining cases against
members of the county court have
been disposed of the committee will
go into the charges against the road
commission as a whole. There are
two or three Of these, but it is believed
that they can be disposed Of in lit
tie while. The committee will finish
its labors In time to make ita final
report to the county court at the July
Term.
The general opinion among those
who have heard the evidence and are
familiar with the facts is that the
charges have practically fallen fat;
that If the evidence that is to come is
no stronger than that which has been
presented not single allegation Of
wrong doing will have been sustained,
AS one citizen expressed it, the whole
thing IL much ado about nothing"
Members of the county court in the
examination on Monday thoroughly
punctured the charges made against
the 'squires. No consolation whatever
was given those who had hoped that
developments would result that would
seriously reflect upon the present man
agement of the affairs of the county.

MOVE ATHENAEUM

COlORED SCHOOL
WILL BE USED FOR THE ERECTION
OF ANOTHER BUILDING
THERE.
BOARD POSTPONfs ELECTION
Teachers Will Not Be Chosen Until
Two New Ones Have Been Found
Superintendent Harris Makes En-
couraging Report.

As a result of a meeting Of the BOARD
of Education Tuesday night, it was
decided to move the old High scho0
building to the colored school, to be
used in the annex that will be built in
the near future. The election Of
teachers was put off until the next
meeting night, although 1t is GER
tainty that the present force will be
reelected.
Plans for the annex to the colored
school have been constructed by Supt.
R. L. Harris and Principal L. s. Duke.
These plans will be discussed with the
building committee during the week
and will be submitted to the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen Friday night. If
the plans and costs are satisfactory,
the work of tearing down the old High
school building will be resumed at
once and the material will be used In
the annex.
The reason for postponing the cleo.
ton of the teachers for the next year,
was due to the fact that the two new
teachers that are to be added to the
force have not as yet been located,
Supt Harris has been in COM
with several teachers over
the country desiring to come here.
When these are found, meeting will
be called to elect the whole force.
In his report to the board, Supt.
Harris spoke Of the splendid com.
exercises given by both
the white and colored schools and the
progress that had been made by these
schools during the year, he further
said that the demonstration shown at
The first Alumni banquet, was the best
hat he had ever seen and that much
interest and enthusiasm was manifest
