all the teachers have every desire to
comply with the wishes of our people
so far as possible.
The schedule above was carefully
planned to meet the best interests OF
the high school program and the re-
quirements of the State Department
of Education.
We invite our parents to study the
schedule above and then suggest to
us just what they desire in regard to
the matter of closing for lunch. For
the past ten or twelve years Gf my
information is correctly we have
closed school at 1910 for lunch each
day. The extra time this year has
been taken up by allowing ten min
utes each day for a Daily Devotional
period.
Only forty minutes have been al
lowed for lunch in order that we
might not keep school so late in the
afternoon. The football squad is now
complaining that they do not have
time for practice after school. Many
of our boys and girls work, and they
likewise are complaining that we are
keeping them too late in the after
noon.
All parents are kindly urged to
communicate your desires to us, and
we shall attempt to work out the very
best possible schedule. Please let us
know your wishes.

Charles NJ. Johnson and the Local

mended today for their work in help
ing to bring about the refunding Of

OF Asheville and Buncombe county,
amounting to approximately $50. 000,-

county and the Asheville school dis
trict almost $4,000, 600 in interest
charges during the 40 years life Of
the refunding bonds. In addition, the
creditors have agreed to cancel ap-
proximately 100000 in interest al

Under the refunding plan worked

Treasurer Johnson, existing bond and
note issues totaling approximately
$52,000,000 at an average interest rate

tirement of these new bonds are spe-
officially set out and can be raised
without working any hardship upon
the taxpayers" Johnson pointde out
today This will mean much to Ashe-.
Vile and Boncombe county and will
do much to relieve the uncertainty
which has existed there over city and

moved, business conditions in Ashe-

materially improve and real estate

In The Sir Walter Hotel.
By j. e. ASKIcREIIE

Raleigh, Jan. 22-Executive Secre-
tary Lloyd E. Griffin, Of the State
School Commission, is heartily in ia
vor Of the schools being relieved from
paying the State tax of six cents
gallon on gasoline used in the 1000
school buses that transport some 275,-
900 children to and from school every
day, and which amounts to about $24,-
600 year, he said today. Since the
State took. over the operation Of the
schols. Griffin estimates that at least
$4,000 In school funds have been
through the gasoline tax.
II have long contended that all Of
the money appropriated for schools
should be used for school purposes
and that other divisions of the State
should not be required to pay taxes
that go to another division of the
State government Griffin said.
1t was recalled here today that dur
ing the 1885 General Assembly a bill
was introduced by Griffin, who was
member of the Senate and by Sena-
tor Fred Folger, Of Surry. county. to
relieve the schools of having to- pay
tho gasoline tax on gasoline purchases
for the operation Of school buses. but
the bill failed to pass.
Within the past few days The News
and Observer here has been calling
attention to the fact that the schools
are requiring to pay this tax and has
been raising strong editorial objection
to it. But since the law cannot be
changed until the next general assem-
bly, meets in January, 1887, nothing
can be done about it until that time.
It is not recalled that The News and
Observer had anything to say about
the imposition of this tax on the gaso-
line bought by the schools when the
1885 General, Assembly was in session.
