BOARD OF EDUCATION
Amount Levied For Schools
In The County

The Board met in regular
session on Tuesday, Feb. 10th.
Those present were Fred Lew
is, president; Mrs. Eleanor J.
Moore, vice-president, and J. E.
Crothers.
The minutes of the regular
meeting of Jan. 18th and spec
ial meeting of Jan. goth were
read and approved, and sundry
bills ordered paid.
The County Superintendent
reported that he had not yet
received all the reports from
the schools of the county &C
counting for the various funds
which they, as schools, were
possessed of, but that this in
formation would be ready for
submission to the Board of Ed
ucation at its meeting on
March 10th.
The Board of Education ex-
pressed it's approval of law
compelling the stopping of
traffic when a school bus was
loading, or unloading, children
along it's route.
Progress on the Rising Sun
High School was reported to
the Board of Education by the
County Superintendent.
The Board then considered
the proportion of county tax
money which goes to the
schools of the county in it's re-
.lation to the total amount of
money for purposes levied by
said county.
This amount of money levied
upon real estate and personal
property is $543,777. Out of
this sum for maintenance of
schools there is appropriated
$21O,711; a new building at
Rising Sun, $45,OOO; interest
on school bond issue of 1923,
$3.50; retirement of school
bonds, $4,000; making a total
of $268,461. This then shows
that for the maintenance of
schools 1919 of the total
amount was appropriated; for
payment of interest on school
bond and a school bond, 2.3%,
for new building, 8.2%, which
shows that a total of 1927 is
levied for the use of schools by
the county.
Permission for attendance at
the Detroit meeting CT the
National Education Association
was granted to Mrs. Moore and
the County Superintendent.
The meeting then adjourned.

NEW BOHEMIA BRIDGE
Span To Be Constructed This
Summer

The State Roads Commission
of Maryland assured the mem
bers of the House of Delegates
from this county-Fred III. LEI
Ter, Thomas w. Reynolds and
William e. Briscoe-that new
concrete bridge will be built
across the Bohemia River this
coming summer, to replace the
present wooden structure,
which is in a delapidated and
dangerous condition.
This news will bring delight
to the hearts of many thous-
ands of persons who travel up
and down the Eastern Shore
annually, for on two occasions,
in 1914 and again in 1918, the
Cecil county delegates had an
appropriation included in the
budget with which to build a
new bridge, but for some reas-
on, never explained, the money
was used for other purposes
and the old wooden, delapidat-
ed bridge is still in use.
1t is estimated that it will
cost at least $250,000 TO build
a new concrete bridge across
the river, it being a quarter Of
a mile from one shore to the
Otheir.

A new batch of important divi-

Western Electric Today
Of outstanding importance are
the meetings of Western Electric,
scheduled for today, and that of
Westinghouse Electric for tomor-
row.
The action to be taken by West
ern Electric is of particular signifi-
canoe for American Telephone,
which owns 98.3 per cent of the

Omission of Western Electric
Dividend Hits Parent Firm,
and Professionals Unload
By w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Sept. Is Q.N.SO.
Except for brief rally in the
first hour. most of the active
stocks were under selling pressure
today and settled down to lower
price levels.
A 4A-point drop in American
Telephone and Telegraph, follow
ing the announcement of the
passing of the Western Electric
Company dividend, was the signal
for an outburst of professional
selling CT the well-known indus
trials and rails, accompanied by
sharp dips in prices. Virtually
all of the 100000 shares of
Western Electric are held by the
American Telephone Company,
whose income will suffer from
the cutting off of Westerns divi-
dend.
Rails At New Lows
A number of the active rails
broke into new low price ground
today. Atchison and Sante Fe fell
off about 6 points to lisa on
reports that the directors at their
october meeting would reduce the
dividend from $40 to 81 a share
annually New Haven's dip to a
new low at 4514 was also a
feature of the rails, as also was
New York Central's 2-point drop
to 581a.
With copper metal selling in
small volume at 7A cents a
pound, the lowest in the history
of the red metal, the copper
stocks were again under pressure.
Present prices of Anaconda, Ken
necott, ETC., are but a shadow OF
the market values quoted for
them a couple of years ago and
today's new shrinkages were nat
urally small.
Oils Fairly Steady
The oil stocks also held fairly
steady in the face of an indicated
increase of 100000 barrels daily
production of crude oil, conse-
quent on the reopening of the
East Texas wells.
Wheat advanced sharply in the
futures market. Cotton rose IS
