Still Neglected.
Sometime ago I busied myself
so much as to express myself
through the Pageland Journal in j
regard to the neglect of our
$8,000.00 school building. At 1
this writing no steps have been 1
taken towards repairing the '
building. '
As I said in mv first write-up 1
I am game enough to say what 1
I think. It is just simply shame- 1
ful the way the building is being
neglected. |
Our body of trustees are all ]
good men, but as I see it, these 1
good men are certainly neglect- ;
a very important matter. If the
roof had been looked after and '
kept painted it would have last- 1
ed 25 years, but a new one will 1
soon be required because of this '
neglect. The exposed woodwork
should not be allowed to go 1
Inn trot" n * /\#
vu^vt tv iiuuui a wai ui paini.
Then the walls and ceiling are *
in bad condition because of neg- *
lect. I repeat that it is shame- '
ful to vote bonds and special <
levies for schools and then let a (
building like this go to ruin for <
lack of attention.
I am certainly in favor of *
schools alright, but I am also in
favor of caring for our school 1
building. Understand I am not 1
electioneering for the job, for I 1
don't feel competent of filling *
the place as it should be. s
I am going to give my opin- 1
ion, and it is this: I think it 1
would be wise to stop the school s
now and take the money and
repair the building and have it 1
ready for another term. 1
Another matter is this: is it '
ire-dung ine poor people outside
the town limits fair to run the
school on after they are forced
to stop their children to aid them
in their work? They pay their
proportional share of the school
taxes. I say it is not right. We
people in the town who want to
send our little ones to school
longer ought to go down in our
pockets and pay the bill, ajidnot
rob the poor *5kt- farmer's child
rights. And then I
-? ,u.a o ^ II
ought to be, it seems at times.
Mr. Editor, you may print
every word of this. Don't be at
all backward. All who see
these things as I do and who arp
willing to endorse what I have
said about these things and es
pecially the first, may let me
know for only a 2-cent stamp?
and then we will sed further.
We hope the good men will
take action in regard to our fast
decaying school building at
once that it may be saved.
Peace be to all.

The Newspaper Law.
Few readers of newspapers
fully and clearly understand the
laws governing subscriptions.
Below are decisions of the Unit
ed States on the subject:
"Subscribers who do not give
express notice to the contrary
are considered as wishing to
renew their subscriptions.
"If subscribers order a discontinuation
of their periodicals the
publisher may coutinue to send
them until all dues are paid.
"If the subscriber refuses to
take periodicals from the postoffice
to which they are directed
he is responsible until he settled
his bill and ordered the paper
discontinued.
"If subscribers move to other
places without informing the
publishers and the papers are
sent to the former address, the
subscriber is held responsible.
"The courts have held that refusing
to take periodicals from
the postoffice or removing them
and leaving them uncalled for is
prima facia evidence of inten
uon to defraud.
"If subscribers pay in advance
they are bound to give notice at
the end of the time if they do not
wish to continue taking it, otherwise
the publisher is authorized
to send it and the subscriber will
be responsible of express notice
with payment of all arrearage
to the publisher,"

The news that Professor W. H.
