ton stated, who were voluble against
the school bond issue, owned autOmO-
biles; it might be said, he argued, that
the cars were their own and that they
had a right to own them and spend
their money as they pleased, but he
said that no man could live to hlmseif
and that according to the very theory
and principles upon which this gov
ernment was established, no man
could absolve himself from the duty
and the obligations he owed his
Ineighbors and the community IN
which he lived. Mr. Horton said that
he had gone 20 The records IN the
sheriff's office of the county and
found that there were $50 automo-
biles owned in Grenada county, which,
at an average value of $500 showed
that the people of the county had
S425, 900 wrapped up in automobiles.
He then gave the figures as to re
pairs, the cost of gasoline, taxes, &C
and showed that the annual cost OF
maintaining these cars was in round
figures SI25,OO0. He said he owned
a car and knew what it cost to main
tain one. He said that people kept
buying cars Notwithstanding they
went up in price and that the ques-
tion now with automobile dealers was
not selling cars but getting cars to
fill orders. He said that people kept
on riding in cars when the price of
gasoline went up, that they did not
stop because of high prices, yet these
same people were talking that the
things needed at the public school
must be put off until prices went
down. He said that he was a pretty
regular attendant at the picture show
that he went when the price was ID
cents but that when the price was
raised he just came along, and. he
said. that he usually saw there many
of the fellows who were hollering now
about the school bonds, wait until
prices go down." He repeated that it
was strange indeed that people could
spend and spend money and that
lust as soon as doing anything for the
schools were mentioned, they began
talking about debts and waiting un-
til prices GO down.
Mr.. Horton closed his very per-
suasive and convincing address by say
ing that the lines were drawn, the
issue was clear cut: that the voters
of Grenada must choose between
bonds for paving streets on one sloe
and the ladies, ministers, and school
teachers of Grenada on the other.
For his part, he said he was going
to pet on the side with the mothers,
those who must train the children at
home, and would therefore cast his
vote for the bonds. He was most fire.
uuently applauded and at the close OF
his address, the applause was more
than generous =,
Mrs. w. D. Salmon, who was seated
in the audience, was then called for
by DR.. Rroadstreet, and was escorted
to the stage and most heartily cheer
ed. Mrs. Salmon said that she en-
dorsed all that had been said. She
said that she had been honored with
the presidency Of the Parent Teach
ers' Association of Grenada and tnaI
she had visited the school regularly
and that she knew the unfavorable
school conditions. She said that her
appeal was to the men of Grenada 70
vote for the bond issue and give the
women Of Grenada that which they
wanted and that which now the wo-
men were unable to do for them
selves.
