PREDICTS EASY VICTORY
pr. Baker Sees No Chance For Defeat
 or Continuance of School Tax

The education three and one mill tax will be carried by a six to one vote" pr. N. R. Baker. superintendent of county schools, predicted Monday. Although there has been active op- position in outlying precincts, the vote against the continuation of the school tax will not be heavy, he said. The persons opposed to revoting the tax are not acquainted with condi- tions, most of them being of the be- lief that 1t is an extra levy, Dr.. Baker declared.
 The revenue derived from the coun- ty tax is divided between the city and county, Dr. Baker asserted, but the county Is more dependent on the funds because of the, district taxes. Upon the passage of the tax, said pr, Baker, an elaborate building pro- gram vii be continued and the sys- tenn expanded as much as possible before the opening of schools.

And spring hasn't come. Oh no,

The moon looks down on wintry

The frogs asleep in their puddle lie,
What's good for cold? Oh choo,
