The necessity of keeping one eye on
the typewriter keys and the other on
an open door that has the villainous
habit of treating bill collectors as if
they were real people doesn't give
much inspiration to a paragrapher.-
Tampa Times.
We always invite bill collectors to
come in and make themselves at
home, and after a pleasant chat on
the weather, politics and the crops
we ask them to take US across the
street and buy US drink. We believe
in treating bill collectors like they
were human.

ence to it in any paper except the
Jacksonville Free Press, one Of Cats
organs.

Ben Raysor, out at Lowell, is a
staunch advocate of Cats, therefore
his neighbors try to tease him by
calling him Cats. Another Ben here
in town is opposed to Cats, there
fore the would-be wits call him Cats,
Knowing that the average American
will have his joke, whether there is
any point to it or not, both Bens take
the chaff good-humoredly.

The Star is reliably informed thai
a whole lot of Marion county meat

The Census of the Dermott Special School District has just been completed and shows total ot le2f pupils of school age IF the district of this number &9& are whites anu 65l are coiored 0l the whites 214 are boys and IF are girls. and Of the eolored 304 are boys and 327 are girls. Th.s is the largest census enr5lment the dis- trict has ever had. being an increase of 52 whites and h coIored over last year when the total was only 956.
 There were 336 whites enrolled in school being al of last year enumer- ation but ?. against an enrolment of 3l2 the year before The total colored enrolled according to this year : report was 32i. against total of 29l accord ing to last year : report The daily at tendance of whites was 25a and of colored l92
 From these figures t seems that the white population of the district k in creasing much more rapidly than the coored. Formerly the reverse of this was true Counting on the basis that ore fourth of the tctai population is of school age and this is very reason able basis the white population of the Dermott Special school District has in creased over 2oo within the past twelve months.

 ,. It permits any school district in Arkansas to vote upon itself any mum Der of mills from l mil up to l2 mills

That Is to say, under Amend ment No. l2 the voters of your district will meet together in Annual School meeting the third Saturday in May each year to vote on the question Of local school taxes You can then vote tax of mill. or mills. or 3 mills. or : mills. or mills or any number of mills up to , mills but no more
 |. It is possible that your district does not need any higher rate than 1t ls now voting If 90. yon can continue to vote the same rate as now. or even a lower one
 D. But the important point is this There are hundreds of districts where the present rate k not high enough to support the school These schools will have to close and deprive their children of an education if Amendment No. l2 is not adopted Question Will you not be fair enough to adopt Amend ment No l2'and permit these districts to spend their own money as they please for the education of their own children.
