A Reasonable Bond Issue Por
Necessary Repairs In Accord
anCe With Commissioner
Hunts Suggestion.

To THE EDITOR As school trustee
letter, which recently appeared in your
columns, regarding the proposed school
bond issue and felt that he had the right
what he knew to be the best interests Of
the county. There was an undoubted OBJ
lection on the part Of a large majority Of
the people to the proposed bond issue Of
$4,000, out Of which was to be built a
Sl9,5O0 colOred school at Rockville, but
the people Of the county also realized that
certain necessary repairs to existing build
ings and small additions to overcrowded
schools were imperative at this time and
Mr.. Hunt brought that out in his letter.
The Board at first decided to drop the
whole matter but reconsidered il at a re-
cent meeting after Mr.. Broome, our School
Superintendent, had again conferred with
the County Commissioners. The School
Board met on Wednesday and County Com
missioners Hunt and Chiswell got in touch
with them over the phone while the meet
IND was progressing and laid reasonable
bond-issue proposition before the Board OF
Education, which Commissioner Hunt had
worked on all the night before to have IL
ready to submit in time. The Board OF
Education passed a resolution approx
mateIy along the line Of compromise sue-
gested for bond issue to cover those
things which were absolutely necessary
and telephoned the result Of their delibera-
tons to Mr. Hunt. stating that Mr.. Broome
would be In Annapolis to present the case
the next morning. Accordingly Mr.. CHS
well took Mr. Hunts proposition down to
Annapolis with him, and with the kind
assistance and great help Of Mr.. Andrew
J. Cummings put the matter in such shape
that minor changes as to detail were easily
agreed upon. 1t is understood that the
Montgomery delegation is heartily in favor
Of this revised bond issue, which will only
be about 100000, which amount 1t is alb
solutely necessary to raise at this time. for
the present school situati n must be met
and to put II in the form Of a direct levy
on the people this year instead Of bond
issue to be absorbed by reasonable pay
ments would be an outrage. Mr.. Roby

Care For The Destitute Children,

The ministers of the county have been
requested. through a letter from the Social
Service League. to cooperate in splendid
work which is being attempted by that
organization. The attempt is being made
to care for the many children who have
been left either totally or partially desti-
the hardships Of the winter. Influenza,
resulting in so many deaths. high cost Of
living. and labor conditions have robbed
many children in our county Of the privi-
leges and necessities of a real home. The
Social Service League again steps forward
to undertake this important task of link
ing up a homeless child with childless
home. In the sU-called Children's Homes
of the State there is often missing those
qualities so much needed to bring the
child into a normal and natural develop
ment, making it easy for him to take his
place in the world with a fair chance for
success. There are homes in the county
which will gladly open the door to a child.
and the result will be mutually profitable.
The child has the inalienable right to be
well born; TO be loved: to have his indi-
viduality respected; to be trained wisely
in body. mind and spirit; to be protected
from evil persons and influences. and t.
have fair chance in life. All of these.
as can be readily seen. are answered and
assured only in a proper home environ
ment. Surely ministers and laymen will
rally to the "call Of the child" and this
first group for whom aid is. asked-three
white and five colored-will find that fin
est place in all the earth-a home.

By this action the county is saved from
real catastrophe in its school matters. as
the bill for revised and reduced bond
issue was, understand. introduced in the
Assembly today. and want to simply give

Schools we would have had no money to
repair schools, which otherwise would have
gone to pieces from neglect, and yet the
amount of the bond issue is reduced to

are absolutely necessary. are included.
