REPLY SO (). M. WAITS.
The following is an open lettM'
from Supt. M. J. Bullock to Mr. 0.
M. Watts in answer to his <|ii< stioas
concerning Doe Pond No. (>">:
Dear Mr. Watts:
By referring to the books of tInformer
County Superintendent of.
Education and to tho.,o of the County
Auditor, it will be found that Doe
Pond School had really ceased to
exist some time before I came into
office. The only part which 1 had in
this affair was to make a formal an
nouncement to you of the fact.
The following records arc copied
from the hooks of the offices named
above: The cash balance which was
$180.35 July I, 1911 and decreased to
$111.02 July 1, 1917, is not considered
in these statements.
For the school year 1911-12 the
constitutional 3 mill tax amounted to
$39.37, poll tax $10.00, dog tax $8.00,
There was no school that year.
In 1912-13 the school could not receive
any money from the constitutional
3 mill tax for there had been
no school the previous year yet the
school was given credit for $20.00
from this fund. The poll tax was
$7.00, dog tax $4.00. Two months'
school was taught this year.
In 1913-14 the school received
$23.40 from the 3 mill tax, poll tax
$7.00, dog tax $4.00. Probably one

In 1914-15 the 3 mill tax amounted <

The Auditor's books show that for
the last four years the area of the
district varies from 474 acres to 651
acres, while the property returned
for taxation varies from $1,755 to
$2,455.
Under the law the school district
must be not less than 9 square miles
in area nor more than 49 square
miles. Doe Pond School District con
taincd about one square mile. I am
in no way responsible for the size of
ihis school district. As you know
there was no local tax and there had
been no school for two years previous
to my coming into office. A
pecial tax of 8 mills would have
given the school only $19.50. These
wore the conditions in which we
found the school a year ago. so w
could only notify your people to return
property either in Johnson, Sidney
or .Joyner Swamp School Districts.
You state in your article that your
school is 5 miles from anyhere. If
this he true then the distance from
the homes of children living around
your school to one of the neighboring
schools is as much less than H
miles as the distance from their respective
homes to your school. Certainly
that distance would not prevent
children from attendance upon
noiorhhorinir schools.
Up to July 1, 1917, you had no
school for 2 years, you had no local
tax, your total income for the previous
year was only $0.00. The area
was only one-ninth of the minimum
area allowed by the constitution of
the State. Two neighboring schools
about 8 miles away had complied
with the law which guaranteed them
n seven-months' term with as many
teachers as they needed. For these
reasons the County County Board of
Education took the action of which
you were notified last year. Every
statement in this letter can be proved
