Lorenzo Enterprise:
On account Of the shortage in la
Dor in the cotton fields, meeting
was held Tuesday morning for the
purpose Of discussing whether or not
the school should be closed. thereby
releasing the children for cotton pick
ing. To close the school was voted
I by a big majority and a committee.
composed of l.. j. Mathis, Jno. A. Dill

ed to meet the teachers Wednesday
at noon and settle the question of sal

ments.
At this meeting il was decided that
the teachers should be paid their reg

the scshool is 10 be suspended and
each morning the children will gath
err at the school as usual and be con-
veyed to a cotton patch with their re-
spective teachers in charge. The
teachers will do the weighing for the
children and maintain discipline and
see that they work as in the school
room.
The argument put up by those on
posed to closing the school that only
those whose parents are owners Of

knocked sauarely in the head. This
il one of the best arrangements that
could be made and comes nearer
