not be impaired by the employment
Of a poor grade of teachers or en-
ployees of any sort. It, therefore,
becomes necessary to increase the
salaries to an appreciable extent,
which increase will amount to, ap-
proximateE seventeen thousand
($17,O00.0O) dollars a year. We,
therefore, recommend that the Po-
lice Jury and the School Board at
once take steps to vote an addition
al tax in the Parish Of one and one
half mills, which, on the present as
sessed valuation of eleevn million
($11, 1,O0O,O00.OO) dollars, will net
the School Board, approximately,
sixteen thousand five hundred $780,
5OO.O0) dollars. This amount, cou-
pied with a slight surplus, accrued
from the former one and one-half
mill tax, will enable the School
Board to make the necessary advan-
ces in salary and meet the increased
cost of maintenance. In connection
with this investigation, this body
called in all the members Of the Po-
lice Jury, and discussed with them
fully ways and means of providing
funds for the School Board. 1t ap.
pears that the Police Jury have nc
surplus funds at their disposal that
could be appropriated to the use OF
the School Board; and that, as a
matter Of fact, they anticipate that
their expenditures for the year will
slightly exceed their revenues.
PUBLIC ROADS.
In connection with the discussion
of the School question, with the Po-
lice Jury and other parish officials
this body took up in detail the sub.
ject of further road construction in
St. Mary Parish. It was the con.
sensus of opinion of the Police Jury
as expressed through its President
that some action should be taken fol
the further extension of latera
roads in this Parish, and, joining ir
reports Of preceding Grand Juries
we beg to recommend that a specia
tax be voted, for the purpose of Sc
curing funds with which to com,
plete the system Of highways in thi'
parish. We heartily endorse tn
previous recommendations, and re
! quest the Parish officials to take tn,
necessary steps to submit the propo
sition to the tax payers.
We recommend that the Police
Jury complete the present mode
highway, extending from the Eas
to the West end of the Parish, a.

Atlanta, Ca, April 21.-The pa
triotism of the women Of America
has never been so emphaticaliy DEM
onstrated as in the Third Liberty
Loan campaign. Reports from the
women's organizations from al! parts
Of the Sixth Federal Reserve Dis
trict. show that tremendous results
are being accomplished by the wo'
mems committees, apart from the
work that is being done by the men.
Mrs. Haynes McFadden, chairman
of the woman's committee for the
Sixth District, is in receipt Of con-
tinuous stream Of reports from the
MANY local committees throughout
the district in which large sales are
reported and the utmost activity IS
being manifested.
From Athens, Ca, where Mrs.
George Nell is chairman, the women
have already taken subscriptions for
$40, 900: with the intensive drive
which has been planned still a week

be used, and the town will be thor

Mrs. z. 1. Fitzpatrick, temporary

that the Georgia Society OF Colonial

To the Honorable W. G. Ba.:er,
Judge of the 23rd Judicial District
Court of the State of Loulsiana,
holding sessions in ari Cor the Par
ish of St Mary.
We, the Foreman and Members OF
the Grand Jury, beg t, submit thi"'
our final report.
We have made a thorough and
careful examination of all criminal
matters placed before lis, o.: called
to our attention, and have present
ed our findings with reference to
criminal matters in a partial report
already submitted.
FIDUCIARY OFFICIALS.
We have examined the books OF
the Parish Treasurer, the School
Treasurer and of the Sheriff and
Tax Collector, and have found them
apparently correct in every detail
and neatly kept.
TOOA1O
We have visited the Court House
the Parish Jail, and found then
neatly maintained and kept in san
itary condition, and that the prison
ers are well-cared-for and humane
ly treated.
PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
We find the books and accounts OF
the Parish School Board properly
kept, and the balance in the banl
corresponding with the amount re
ported by the Treasurer. We have
gone carefully into the question Of
expenses and receipts for the veal
1918 and the probable expenses
for the year 191S-19, and it is will
regret that we find that a deficl
Of, probably, seventeen thousand
! ($17,OOO.OO) dollars will have to b.
met for the year 1918-19. 1t ap
pears that the recent tax of one ant
one-half mills, voted for the schools
will barely take care Of the schoo
expenses, with no allowance for in
creases in salaries or increased cos
of maintenance. It cannot be ex
pected that teachers or employee
of the School Board will be willin,
to work, without an increase in sal
ary, when it is a well-known fac
that other parishes in other parts o
the country have made material in
creases in the salaries of thei
teachers and employees, and when
would be an easy matter to take Vi
other vocations, at much higher sal
aries. Investigations has show
that a number Of our best teacher
contemplate accepting positions Il

This is the first time more than three

couraging the practice Of some persons
in the past of subscribing without car
rying out the installments.
The setting of the last installment Of
30 per cent as late as Jan. 30 was in
terpreted as assurance that the fifth
