LATE VAGRANT

Oh, Lord, you were so tangible today
felt the healing impress of your hands,
Your sandaled footsteps were not years away
But here beside me pacing the brown sands
Tomorrow Peter-like, may forget
These moments Of your comradeship and grace
And, in my urgent waywardness, might let
Some dark and impious escort take your place.
Yet always I'll remember that you keep
Your door of understanding ajar,
CWhile all your soul-safe household lies asleep),
For one late vagrant grouping for a star.
Mary McKenna.

Pull shades on kitchen
cabinet doors.
How does that idea sound
TO you? Pretty good, when
you remember the times YOU
have bumped your head on
open cabinet doors. l expect.
The idea was developed by
housing specialists at the Uni
versity of Illinois to make
work easier for handicapped
homemakers. But it is an
idea that many homemakers
might like to use.
Take off the cabinet doors
and replace them with a pull
shade. You'll find the shade
easy to draw up asd down
as you use the cabinet. And.
it saves the room that would
be taken up by doors swing
ing on hinges.
The shade can be bamboo
for a natural wood effect. Or.
If you prefer it can be white
and made of plastic or can
vas. You might want to use
a printed shade to add color
and interest to your kitchen.

tains a detailed summary of the
evidence submitted him.
Four Major Issues
He outlined four major issues
at the beginning of his state
ment. First what are t h E
powers and duties of the county
school board and division super
intendent?
Judge Knowles answers this
as follows. THE Court is Of the
opinion that the county
school board of Prince Edward
County and the division super
intendent Of schools have exer-
cised every power and perform
ed every duty incumbent upon
them under the Constitution and
statues Of Virginia.
Second Point
Second what are the powers
and duties Of the State board Of
education and State superinten-
dent Of public Instruction."
In answering this question
Judge Knowles wrote as fol-
lows. A. the State Board Of
Education has neither power nol
duty to establish, operate or
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1963-12-03

no federal statute requiring a
State to provide public ire E
schooling for its citizens, nor is
the Court aware Of any provision
Of the Fourteenth Amendment
which requires a State either to
operate public free schools or to
provide State Scholarship grants
or any other form Of free pub
lie education. On the contrary,
whether free public education
shall be provided is strictly a
matter for State determination.
Home Rule
This Court has determined
above that in this case the &C
tons. on the one hand, and the
inability to act, on the other. of
the plaintiffs, County S c h 0 oil
Board of Prince Edward County
and the Division Superintendent
Of schools Of Prince Edward
County. and Of the defendants,
State Board of Education and
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton. do not violate either the
Constitution or the statutes of
Virginia. ard that the system Of
public free schooling establish
ed by the General Assembly is
predicated upon the theory Of
home rule or local option.

THE FARMv1LLE a) HERALD TUESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1868

maintain the public free schools
in Prince Edward County or in
any other county. city or town
in the Commonwealth. It cannot
perform its principal function Of
general supervision unless t h e
schools are open and operating
and it cannot apportion or ex-
pend locality's portion Of the
funds appropriated BY the Gen
eral Assembly unless and until
the governing body provides its
prop0rtionate part Of the whole
amount to which the locality is
entitled under the law. There is
no question but that the historic
method Of conditional appropria-
tons may be changed. but even
then Section 1876 of the Consti-
tuition limits the power to estab-
lishment Of local public free
schools to the local school au-
thorities, which would still re
quire the cooperation of school
boards.
IN the Gaze Of the Superin-
tendent Of Public Instruction the
court is unable to find, nor has
is attention been directed to
any power in or duty imposed
upon the Superintendent to es-
tablish, operate or maintain the
public free sci ools of any
county \"
Rights Of Parents?
Third. what are the rights of
the parents of children who re-
side in Prince Edward County?
Judge Knowles said here that
this court is unable to find
any prohibition. restriction or
condition which would prevent
the payment Of state and local
scholarship grants to or or the
benefit of an eligible child :.
1t is clear that the intent and
plain language Of the law
is to provide means for the edu-
cation of each eligible child"
The General Assembly, in,
the exercise Of its discretion.
has given due regard to the
fact that public schools in a 10
cahty might be closed and has
made provision for the continu-
ed education of the children of
the Commonwealth in the event
such a contingency occurs. In
SO doing the principle Of local
option as to the operation of
public schools within county
was again recognized.
Fourth Point
The fourth major point listed
by the opinion is as follows:
Has any right secured to any
resident Of Prince Edward Coun-
ty by the Constitution of t h e
United States been violated?"
The Circuit Court opinion
states: The Court is aware Of

bacco, and the government,
which advances the money to
purchase leaf going into the gov
eminent pool.
For the 1862 crop, generally
conceded to have been superior
to the one grown this year dur
ing a severe drought, Farmville
marketed 4.OO5.524 pounds. OF
this 3,758,952 pounds were dark
fired tobacco, crossing farmers
81 .429, 1923 at an average Of S38.04
per hundredweight.
For the 1862 crop. the average
price support peg was $3.50,
and since the season closed
with markets at about this fig
ure the crop a year ago was
about an average one.
This year, the price support
pegs have an average of 1876
cents per pound, or $3.50 per
hundredweight. Indications are.
however, that 1t will be surpris-
ing if that average holds through
the season. The drought-hit crop
is considered below average, al
though growers in areas which
had rain have some excellent to-
bacco.
It seems pretty certain that
the grower who has good leaf of
the kind to fill orders of the buy
ers will do we'll this year. Vir-
ginia has not been producing
enough of this kind Of tobacco in
quantity to fill these orders in
the past.
Acreage Hike?
It is this situation which has
given rise to a move m n
throughout the belt to increase
the dark-fired tobacco acreages.
They say Virginia must have
large enough crop to provide
these grades. or the export trade
will find its orders being filled
from other countries. The Aus
trian type of cigar leaf is ex-
pected to be in strong demand
this season.
A year ago. the Farmville
Market added an extra $73 .234
income to farmers through sun
cured sales of 24l.572 pounds.

County Tax

Outstanding Record
The 1862 levy, also with the
county's present 81 rate. was
