ORDWAY PLAY TIE
GAME WITH FOWLER

to in Ordway's favor! Yes, that
Is the way the score stood when the
whistle for the end of the fourth
quarter was blown on the football
field at Fowler last Friday afternoon.
Some of Fowler may have felt a little
different about the favor but we
know. Those that have watched the
boys who have played the games from
the start to the finish of the season
realize that every player has done
his level best in each game; but the
best has improved with each game
until we had last Friday afternoon
some of the best football playing ev-
er demonstrated in the Arkansas val
ley.
Ordway's defense was splendid.
This was illustrated admirably at
the point in the game where Fowler
had the ball just two inches from the
Ordway goal and the Ordway team
held like wall not giving single
inch for four downs. After the first
few minutes of the game, the Ordway
team kept the ball in Fowler territory
the greater part of the time.

$500 THE YEAR
School Levies
Are Reduced

Tax 1evies in the various school
districts have been reduced over that
of last year. Under a new law
which requires the county to pay $75
per month on each school teachers
salary the county commissioners had
to make a special levy to meet the re-
quirements and this was fixed at
40 mills, 1t was therefore nee
essary for the various school boards
to make a reduction in their usual
school district levies, as good por
tion of the salary list is to be taken
care of by the county: This has
been done and by adding the SPECIAL
levy mace by the county to the 1871
levy made by the various school Ils-
tricts there is still shown reduct-
ion.
Last week the New Era presented
the tax levies as made by the four
taxing bodies, the state, county.
town and school district. in gen.
eral summary showing in detail the
figures for residents in each town or
school district. This report and
summary would be worth keeping on
file for reference.
Herewith is presented a compar-
ison of this years school levy with
that of last year and to the levy as
made by the school boards in eaci,
