Our Schools.

Teaching is such progr essive
science that any one who follows
this profession must keep moving
to keep in sight If the procession.
The numerous Summer Schools OF
the land are the out growth of the
needs of the teachers. If the teach.
ers are anxious to keep abreast OF
the times they viii laval themselves
of the benefits of these Summer
Schools.
1t has become necessary for the
hoard to require teachers to attend
Summer Schools in order that the
teachers may keep themselves pre-.
pared to do successfully the great
work before them. Ii the board of
education requires teachers to at
tend summer schools it certainly is
very reasonable demand.
The Board is looking to the well
fare of the children and the child
ren's welfare depends upon the
efficiency of the teacher. Poor and
inefficient teachers are detrimental
to the advancement of the schools,
and while it is not the purpose OF
the board to eliminate the poor
teachers, but on the Other hand, it
is their purpose to make good
teachers out of the inefficient ones
if possible, if not, then to get rid
of them at once. ".s q

GARDENS.

definite. They are worth from little
70 much. We know some gardens
in the County of only one quarter
of an acre that are worth more
than one hundred dollars to the
owners. A wisely laid out garden
of one fourth of an acre with every
thing that garden should contain
can be made worth more than one
hundred dollars to any family.
The following are some of the
things that should be planted in a
garden; beets, unions, peas, pota-

COUNTY MEN PROTEST PLAN
 TO RAISE VLUAT|0N
Members of State Tax Commits sion Hear Formal Complaint
 Against Increase Proposal.

Members of the state tax commits sion took under advisement the pro- posal of Commissioner Monroe Smith to make blanket increases in the
 assessed valuations of Jefferson county, after a delegation of Jeffer- son men had appeared before the con- mission, in Little Rock yesterday. MT. Smith, who was here recently in- specting the assessment rolls, has proposed an increase of 25 per cent on personal property valuations and of B per cent on real estate. This would add about B per cent to the taxes Jefferson property owners must pay, and would increase to about $25,00O,000 the assessed valuations. Taxes were paid last year on a total assessed valuation o1 approximately 8,OOO,OO0 Assessor Clayton Gould has made different increases, bring ing the total to $20,000,000.
 The injustice of the proposal was presented to the board by State Senator Creed Caldwell, R. Carnahan Attorney F. G. Bridges, J. E.. Boyce, Clerk of Court L. T. Sallee and oth- CTS of a delegation of IA who went from here to appear before the com mission. MT. Sallee also pointed out that it would be practically impos sible, in the event of the change, for him to complete the extension of the assessments on the tax rolls in time to deliver the books to the tax col lector by tax paying time.
 Members of the delegation were hopeful last night that the commits sion would decide to take no action, providing for an increase, for this year at least. Clerk of Court Sallea is to be advised today or tomorrow by the commission of it's decision.
