An injunction having been brought in the circuit court to restrain the payment of any part of the school fund for the county de- monstrator, the school directors were called together for the purpose of de- Tciding what action should be taken by them in regard to the same.
 After general discussion of the subject, the following resolution was introduced and unanimously adopted to-wt:
 Whereas it appears to the various school directors of Nevada county Arkansas, assembled in public meet ing at the county court house, on this the l4th day of July, 1917, that about five hundred dollars of the school fund in the treasury of Nevada coun- ity belonging to the various school dis tricts has been paid for farm demon stration work without legal author Iity, now therefore be it resolved that we request the prosecuting attorney to take the necessary legal steps for the recovery of this money, and re- store the same to the various school districts to which it belongs, and also to prevent the further misappropria- tion of the school funds.

Friday morning at about $50
o'clock, at her home on the West
side of town, at the age of about II
years. Aunt Melinda had been a
part of Lexington and almost a part
of our home ever since We located
here in 1884, had many times been
a cook in our home and near
neighbor the whole of the SO years.
She is survived by three sons and
one daughter, having recently lost
her only other daughter. Aunt Me-
linda was rather a remarkable wo-
man, a splendid cook, excellent
housekeeper. She was mother
who tried to rear her children cor
rectly and when she was physically
able was always on the 60, trying
to do her part toward making a liv-
ing, We did not know Aunt Me-
linda's religious or church connec-

good and virtuons woman and be-
lieve also that she has gone to rest,
