Applieaton for all that is due have been approved. The only thing - J that will keep the teachers and other ; obligations from being paid in full, will > be the failure of the taxpayers in the respective districts, to pay their taxes before June 1st. The taxpayers are asked to pay their taxes up for the > sake of the schools. If collections uo l! not improve in some districts, the i i! chances for a school the coning year will be greatly hampered. Shall we | rteglect our schools or pay our raxes? | The time is short, the times are I hard, let us make an effort to main| tain our great stride forward. The people of Lexington county have neevr failed, that they will come to the aid of the schools in these trying times is not doubted. MASONIC TEMPLE FOR BEAUTIFUL CAPITAL SITE.
