A .S''ATEIEN OFN'r loACT,- REIZ GARllNG THE 1'itI'OSEl) BONI) ISSUE l'ICKENS H1G H SCIIOl. Elsewhere in this issue will be found a Notice for Bond Election to be held in Pickens May 22nd. A statement of facts will, we think. explain thoroughly the purpose of thim move on the part of the trus. tees of the Piekens high school. Eighteen years ago Pickens voted bonds to build the present school building. At that tine the taxable property amounted to ap~proximately $95,000. Five mills was le.vied at that time to take eare' o this bond issue. There is dlue op this bond issue about $700 which Vill le e_ tired ini about two' years. We feel the nced 1nfow f0 meri .

Tihe pr'esenmt live mills levied for bond purpostsC wuill take car'e ot' the new bond issue, pay the interest and cr'eate a sinking fund to retire the bonds in twenty years, and WILL NOT IN ANY WAY INCREASE TAXES ONE PENNY. Virtually it means the transfee' of the present five mills from one bond issue to another, retire tihe old one and ap ply the proceeds from the present five nills to the new issue. We trust this will explain satis factorily to every one the .purpIose of the election and relieve your mind of the idea that we are trying to increase taxes whatsoever. W. L. Matheney, Chairman.

REFINEMENTS ADDED TO. FORD. ENCLOSED CARS. Demand Exceeds Supply~ as fRush Season Approaches Many added conveniences and re finements are to be seen in the Ford enclosed cars now being displayed by the local authorized Ford dealers. The interior of both the .coupe and the sedan is now finished in an at tractive shade of walnut brown broadcloth; and the seats are up holstered with a similar material threaded with chalked ebony-stripe. Heavy floor rugs give an added touch of comfort. Lifts, of a special de sign, minimize the effort of raising or lowering the windows. Door bumpers insure a tighter fitting, and new door grips, both inside and out, add to the rider's convenience. The demand for Ford enclosed cars has been unusually high during the past two. months. Although produc tion has been speeded up in the Ford factory at Detroit, sales continue to exceed the output, making it nec cessary for purchasers in many parts cf the ceuntry to wait for their cars. Lor1 dealers say this is the reason the y have been urgirg customers to i:lact their orders as early as possi E. 1).
