VOTED BONDS DOWN.

Voters of Pickens school distric,
voted down both propositions recent.
ly submitted to them and calculated d
to improve school conditions here.
The proposition to issue $4,000
worth of bonds for an addition to the
present school house was voted down
by a good majority, while the pro-
position to levy seven additional
mills in the district for school pur
poses was lost by only two votes.
However, another election will be
held at the court house on August
IL to decide whether an additional
levy of five mills will be placed on
this district. Those in position to
know state that it will be absolutely
necessary to have the additional lew
if the Pickens school is to success
fully meet the demands which will
be made upon it next term. Indi-
cations now are that the five mill
proposition will win by large ma
jority.
