| ly for longer terms and new buildings,
i The year coming to a close has been
ij one- of irnproveemnt in all phases of
| the work. Further improvements for
the coming scholastic year are being
I made.
i
1 The schools of the county have re\
ceived their quota of the Stare Aid so
far. 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.

the treasurer to wait on so large a

can are urged to come as. soon a.<
