SITES CHOSEN FOR
TWO new SCHOOLS
Handsome Buildings Planned For
Red House And Science Hill
Consolidated Schools

The County Broad of Education
selected the sites for two new
consolidated country schools,
which will become Junior High
Schools, if attendance justihes,
and fixed the school tax levy for
the ensuing years, at its regular
meeting here Tuesday. The levy
was raised from Il cents on each
S1O0 worth of property to 40
cents, which was mandatory by
the recently enacted state law
that requires a tax levy of Is
cents on the 500 for teachers
salaries alone: the remaining IS
cents will go for maintenance and
other school necessities. 1t is es-
timated that the tremendous in
cease in school taxes will raise
something like $4,000 for teach
ers salaries in Madison. The
new state law fixes the minimum
salary that can be paid at SIS per
month. Supt. Ben F. Edwards
says that the salaries will be
graded under the new law, ac-
cording to qualification of the
teacher, and he expects the low
est salaries iniths county te be be-
tween $50 and $S5 per month
The salaries of the principals OF
the schools will automatically be-
come $3.50 a month, the new state
law requiring a so per cent salary
raise for them There are about
Us teachers in Madison county s
country schools who will be af-
fectcd by the salary increases
that are provided for under the
new law and new levy.
The County Board chose site
at the junction OF the Lexington
and the Boonesboro pixies as the
site for the Science Hill consoli-
dated school The school dis
tricts which are embraced by il
are Science Hill, part of Black ane
part of the Dozier districts. A
building of four rooms and tc
cost about $l5,00O will be erected
here.
At Red House, a site was Sc
llected on the farm of VIM. Embry
| for the consolidated school which
will embrace parts OF Black
Dozier and the Green Oak dis
tricts A similar building tt
Science Hill school will be con
structed there. Both of these
schools will become Junior Higl
Schools if conditions warrant.
The board appointed Hacl
Wilson as trustee for the PHO
Knob school vice Mike Perke
resigned, and Wiley Sebastian
trustee at Cottonburg vice Jane
Dawson.

BAZAAR MADE s1,100
FORP. A, c. INFIRMARY

Canvassing of the financial returns
from the bazaar conducted last Satur-
day for the Pattie A. Clay Infirmary.
at the regular meeting of the board
Tuesday, revealed the fact that over
$1,100 was netted for this very worthy
institution. This figure broke all
previous records, for never before has
such handsome amount been realized
from such endeavors. Evrything the
ladies offered for sale seemed to bring
unusually high prices and they were
quickly sold out on almost every
thing. All are very grateful for the
generous patronage which was ac-
corded them, and the institution thai
they represent.

new SCHOOL TAX
HITS PEOPLE: HARD
Fiscal Court Forced By New
State Law To Raise School
Levy From 14c to 40c

Taxes for the coming year took
a big upward leap in Madison
county Tuesday as a result OF the
work of the recent legislature,
which just adjourned. Because
the legislature made it mandatory
that a 25-cent tax on each $1OO be
levied to pay county teachers sal
aries, the Madison school tax was
raised from IA cents on the $100
to 40 cents on the S1OO by the Fis-
cal Court. The magistrates had
no alternative under the law but
to vote the school levy asked for
by the County Board of Educa-
ton. This board was compelled
to ask for Is cents for salaries,
and it really increased its own
levy for the maintenance of
schools from IA cents to Is cents !;
which added to the Is cent salary
levy makes up the 40-cent levy,
which the Fiscal Court was COM
PEELED to fix under the law.
The Fiscal Court at its regular
meeting Tuesday -. fixed the re-
mainder OF the tax levy for the
year at the same figures = Is
cents for the general fund; Is
cents for roads, 5 cents for the old
railroad bonds and 40 cents for
the state; all of which added to
the school tax of 40 cents, will
make the entire county levy this
year $1.,35.
The Fiscal Court members, all
OF whom were present, held an
all-day meeting going over claims
and the settlement with the sher-
if on tax generations.
In an effort to relieve taxpayers
of some Of the additional burdens
that were placed upon them by
the legislature, the court abolish
ed the county poll tax of $l.5O a
head. This however, under the
law, cannot go into effect until
next year. 1t will help some,

Lies And Loves Ia
sShe Loves And Lies

Does a woman lie when she
loves? ? She certainly does, and
Norma Talmadge proves it i'll
"She Loves and Lies" in which
the popular star is appearing at
the local theatres Wednesday and
Thursday.
True, Miss Talmadge has a
good excuse for her hbs, for she
must win fortune and in order to
do this she must marry a man,
while she is masquerading as
woman OF 81, who happens to be
the man she really loves and he
really believes she is the age she
represents.
Some task, but Miss Tamadge
is SO versatile that she not only
makes the aged woman convinc-
;ngly lovely, but compels her
youthful husband to become so
wrapped up in her that when he
has chance TO escape what to
some would prove a distasteful
marriage, he will not let her go.
Then comes the surprise when
the young man finds out that his
bride is girl still full Of
Ibouyancy OF youth and the JOY Of
living.
