The senate fails to adopt the lux
forum and then offers nothing to take
the place. In the next two or three
weeks you will find the legislature
about ready to adjourn and the same
old levy on visible property, such as
farms and houses and lots and mules
and COWS and such things, and the
rich man will go on living and pay
ing only on his visible property which
in many cases is the smallest part of
it. They are laying the mines and
the explosion will come little later
and it is going to be terrific.

CANNOT BE DEFERRED

We can put off the painting of the
house the present year and maybe
next year, we can do without new
automobile, the old suit Of clothes can
be cleaned, pressed and maybe re
built" as the tailors say in order that
we may do without great many
things without material loss or IN
convenience, but we cannot defer fo1
a wear nor for month what we owe
to the children of this state IN the
way of an education. The schools
must run.
The Press and Banner is not
among those who think the present
plan of distributing state appropria'
tions for schools is the best plan, but
it is the best plan until better one
is worked out. 1t should be followed
and the necessary appropriations
made the present year to keep the
primary schools, the graded schools
and the high schools in operation for
the full terms.
A child who leaves school IN the
middle of the term will be discour-
aged. He may not enter the school
again. If he does he will not obtain
the full training he is entitled to and
which is necessary in order to meet
the requirements of the higher grades
and of the colleges.
We are all poor and most OF us
would be glad to say that we have
nothing and owe nothing. But II we
owed twice the amount we now owe
we would say that the schools must
run. The fact is that the people,
while temporarily in bad financial
condition, are not insolvent. The
country is not insolvent. Better
times are ahead, and while it may
take long, stiff pull to make the
grade we will make it. When we
have made it, let US not then reproach
ourselves with having neglected the
children who had to go along with u.s.
The matter of educating them cannot
be deferred. It is task for today.

Tuesday afternoon 1 went to
Vaughnville to lay, or to assist in
laying, the foundation for the new
school building the trustees are 60
ing to erect in this district. They
are going to build model school in
this district. 1t is to be of tile with
brick veneer and to contain two class
rooms and two work rooms, one for
the girls and one for the boys, and
an auditorium that will seat 200 peo-
pie. The material is all on the
ground and Mr.. W. B. King who has
the contract was to begin work on
Wednesday, Washington's birthday.
He expects to complete the work in
thirty to forty days. Mr.. ]. E. Sum-
mer kindly went over with me and
drove his big car and it did not take
long to reach Chappells, but the road
from Chappells to Vaughnville in plac
es is rather bad. Along out from
Chappells by the fine farms OF A. r.
Coleman and J. B. Scurry and ). L.
Watkins where they keep up the
dragging the road is fine. and really
the only bad place is the bottom just
beyond the home of Mr.. Jahns, and
Mr.. R. E. Watkins and the neighbors
are dragging this regularly and when
the new soil gets we'll settled it Will
be fine. though the other day it was
rather hard pulling to make 1t. Ihls
is very important highway. 1t LEADS
out by Vaughnville and on to Cross
Hill and is travelled great deal, and
the highway commission of this coun-
ty worked it up we'll some months ago
and relocated it in many places and
when the new soil gets we'll settled,
if the maintenance is kept up, it will
be a fine road. l am sure it is going
to be kept up.

There is where you are exactly
right. These boys and girls that are
in school now can not wait. They
could not if they wanted to, because
the years are going right along and
no one has any power to turn back
the wheel of time. There are things
in that appropriation bill that could
wait.
The proviso in the bill to pro rate
the amounts is the worst feature OF
the whole business. In other words,
to say that the laws say you muat
do so and so, or if you do thus and
so, the state will do her part, but
here comes along the time when the
state must come across and keep the
faith and provision of compromise
is inserted, as much as to say we
know this thing is not going to meet
our part of the obligation and we
will force you to compromise with US
and take what we say and give you
no voice in the making of the COM
promise or the terms thereof. Some
how it does not look exactly right to
AS. We are not arguing whether or
not the state agreed to give too
much. We do not believe that it
did. The only thing is that
ury tax but possibly the peoples
or not the state agreed to give too
much. The only thing is that the
the state agreed to do certain things
and now when it comes to the doing
she proposes a compromise and you
must take it.

Miss Dorothy Buzhardt and she has
an enrolment of thirty-four and they
are all present every day. That is,
unless some one is really too sick to
go to school. They had two teachers
here last session but the trustees de-
cided it would be better to have one
teacher with longer term for the
school than two teachers with a half
term and they are right. Miss Buz-
hardt is doing good work here and 1t

This is a fine community, this Rec
derville and Bush River section, and
big fine farms and until the approach
of the boil weevil the people were
as rule prosperous farmers, and
they will get over the boil weevil.
In fact / am inclined to think that
the Bush River Baptist church is one
of the largest and wealthiest of the
purely rural churches of this denomi-
nation in the state. And that it con-
tributes more to the benevolences of
the church than any other rural con-
gregation. The congregation sup
ports it's pastor and he devotes all of
his time to this congregation. But,
and this is hte main thing l want to
say, they need some roads out this
way. Some of the roads do fairly
we'll. but those right around and lead
ing Up to the church are fearful, and
they remain in this condition al the
year round. From the church up to
school house has been bad for two
years to my certain knowledge and
the road from the church down to
Newberry is bad and has been for
two years at least, and the road out
by Singley's mill, the one over which
most of the traffic goes, is bad and
has been for the two years that l
have been going there regularly. This
is too fine a community and TOO fine
rural church 10 have such roads
leading Up 10 IL. It is about four
miles to the highway at Garys and
l do not know how :ar 20 tie high
way to L,rgshores, but at least as
far, AMI the question is d BENG able
to reach this highway at some sea-
sons of tha ;ear. Yes the commun-
ity needs to get together and do some
self help and then get county help
and build some roads. The highway
to Kinards is fine with a few eXcep-
tons. There is one very bad place
lust about mile this side of Kin
ards at or near the place of DR.. L.
H. Pope, but of course we shall eX-
pect that to be repaired very soon.

1 drove from Reederville around
to Bush River. This is also a two
teacher school and the teachers this
year are Misses Monts and Living
ston. The enrolment is sufficient for
a rural graded school but the district
can not qualify for guaranteed sew
en- months term under the state law
for lack of the children. 1t takes
not less than fifty and the enrolment
is around As, but the average attend
ance has been almost perfect and
that is what really counts. But when
the tax is paid we will have sufficient
funds without state aid to run the
school seven months.
