FOR EFFECT.
Some time ago, one of the ring
members of the present School to,
Board thought it was unfair for in
the present Town sthorities to Cc
oharge the High School for tbe the
use of light and water and made a tic
motion that a committee appear M.
before the Council asking that vei
free light and water be continued
as in the past. Di
But this cummittee did not ap- it
pear beforo the Council, which in- Cc
dicates that the motion was sim- ag
ply made for political effect, to
show that the present administra- pr,
tion was not as friendly to the tic
schools as the past one. Cc
To show the real condition of tic
things we will deal with facts and we
figures and the public will be able
to judgeo for themselves. tir
The boots of the town shows an
that in 1907 the town paid the en
School Board $25, in 1908 $630 63 o
in 1909 .8329.37 in 1900, $200 in ha
1912, $698.07 and to obtain these kn
amounts the School Board had to
beg the Council and the amount
of 1912 was obtain by force of a
suit which was decided against the de.
town. 'at
The present administration bas lee
paid the schools in 1912 $252.54 chi
and in 1913 $567.39 making a to- hii
tal of $82U)39 and the present ad- otl
ministration still owe to the schools t'h
taxes not yet collected, the total me
appropriation 3.mills on the total
assessment, amounting to $1,269.27'
and the school need not beg for ofr
what is due them, they get their h11o
check every month for wLat is Re,

collected for them.
And besides tht.se facts, the
plant, on account of the high price
of fuel is running with a loss and Ju
the management have decided that
no free lights and water will be sot
g ven to no one. Not even to the die
High School. But they will get of
every cent that they have a right me

The Last Hope Gone.
g The defeated politicians of the

ar in the hope that the Supreme
o Court, as a last resort, would give
15 them relief in the contested elec

tri M. L. Broussard vs Albert Bien
t jvenu.
d The case was tried before the
District Court and Broussard lost, t
- it was appealed to the Cirouit I
'- Court of Appeals and Broussard i
- again lost.
o It was then appealed to the Su. t
I- preme Court, applying for a cer
* tiorari, or writ of review, to the c
Court of Appeals, which applica- 1
)f tion was refused. This decision
d was rendered by Justice Provosty. e
l This election was under the en

P! A warning to the American boy
to take full advantage of the high
school course of education lest his
foreign-born brother outstrips him
was recently made at a teachers'
convention at Syracuse, N. Y., by -
a prominent educator. There are
to-day at least forty vocations Sui
which require a high schbool edu- dee
cation by way of preliminary train
fing, and the boy who quits school VO1
before the four years' high school
course shuts against himself the
door of opportunity and makes it to
impossible for himself to enter thefit
vocations which aspire to be rank
ed with the professions. At the
P rate at which foreigners are com
e ing to our shores, that their chil
i dreu may have the benefit of the
r free schools of our country, there
is but one possible outcome if the
American boy does not apply him.
self as diligently as the boy from
foreign shores. Already places

Lie entage that might be occupied by
