ATTENTION CALLED
BY SCHOOL BOARD
TO WORDING OF ACT
The act of the legislature enabling
the Escambia county school board to
acquire properties has apparently been
the cause of some misunderstanding.
For many years it has been the prac
tice of school boards to buy and sell
properties at pleasure, under the Im
pression that such acts were within
tne law. At length, however, a test
case was made under injunction pro
ceedings, and the state supreme court
ruld that school boards cannot buy
even the least amount of property,
even after the people have sanctioned
it by vote, without the consent of the
county commissioners.
In view of the evident embarassment
this technicality would impose Upon
the efficient work of the board, the
Escambia county board drew and in
duced the legislators from the county
to put through both houses the fol
lowing act:-;-:': ' . '"" v.-
A Bill to be Entitled: An act ' to
authorize the county board of public
instruction of Escambia . county, Flor
ida, to acquire by lease, purchase or
otherwise, real estate for pubUo school
purposes, and to sell and convey the
same when no longer needed.
Be It Enacted by the Legislature of
the State of Florida:
Section 1. hat the county board of
public Instruction of Escambia county,
Florida, is hereby authorized to ac
quire by lease, gift, purchase or devise
real estate for public school purposes,
including dormitories. In said county
of Escambia, and to hold, improve and
use the same, and to erect buildings
thereon for Such purposes, and when
in its Judgment such real estate IS
no longer needed for such purposes
to sell and convey the same. In mak
lng such purchases, said board may
provide for payment in cash or in Its
discretion may purchase on credit, the
purchase nrice to be paid on such
terms, in such manner and at suc'i
times as it may deem best.
Section 2. All laws and parts of
laws In conflict with the provisions
of this act are hereby repealed.
Section 3; This act Shall take effect
immediately upon its becoming a law.

mercial course, teaching double and sin

ready the enrollments are greater than
what we expected and w are glad to find

COMMISSIONER POU ;
SEES IMPROVEMENT
IN CITY SANITATION
Commissioner Poii has been on an
extended tour of inspection of the new
sanitary, devices in different portions
of the city. He reports that thero
is all the difference in the world
between the old way and the new for
sanitation, and it is so manifest to
the citizens who have observed Its
advantages that many of them are
enthusiastic and declare they would
not go back to the old order for any
possible consideration. The inspection
will, of course, continue.
Notice has been received by the local
forest service office that the special
provision made by the secretary of
agriculture several years ago to apply
to the Florida national forest whereby
persons residing in or near the forest
have been allowed to graze 25 head
of cattle, 50 head of hogs of 75 head
of sheep free of charge, has been ro
voked. ;
With this change the grazing admin
istration of the Florida national forest
has been brought into conformity with
that of all the 140 national forests of
the United States While the special
provision was of direct advantage to
a few users of the range, it worked
more less of a hardship on the coun
ties as a whole, within which the forest
is located. This, by reason of the fact
that grazing receipts were reduced and
this reduction was reflected In the
amount of money available . for road3
and schools within the county. Twen
ty-five per cent of the gross receipts
of all national forests is turned over
to the counties. An additional ten per
cent is used by the ' "forest service
for the construction of roads.
The grazing policy of the forest
service is one . which encourages In
creased production of livestock. This
is aimed at in several ways. All possi
ble areas are made available. Better
handling of the stock on the range
is recommended and the grading up
of stock is encouraged. It is probable
that within a few years the Florida
national forest will be the only open
range in the state. At that time full
forage resources o? the region will be
called into service, and the plan will
be to make the privileges of the
greatest value to the most people. The
local forest officers anticipate cheerful
compliance with the new regulation as
promulgated by the secretary of agri
culture, and feel that the grazing ad
ministration of the government " has
now been developed to a point where
further changes will not be necessary.

102 E. Wright St.
Mrs. Arthur Wrlghton was elected
president of the Parents -Teachers j
Association of School No. 10 at a very ;
held at the school building Friday
afternoon. The resignation of Mrs. Pa
tillo Campbell, who has efficiently
served as president in the past, was
accepted, and Mrs. C. E. McReynolds
served as temporary chairman until
her successor was chosen.
After the business meeting a de
lightful social hour was enjoyed, the
mothers leisurely inspecting the pupils
wprks of, art. The Exhibit was a
splendid one and was attractively ar
ranged about the room. Groups of
birds and butterflies here and there
together with cut flowers gave every
appearance of Maytime. , .
The work of the children Was ar
ranged by grades. The drawings dis
played by grade I, showed splendid
work for the pupils of that grade and
their composition books which were
also displayed, were creditable to
teachers and pupils. . A handsome, dis
play of drawings was made by grade
two, the construction work of this
grade being especially admired, an in
teresting part of which were the pret
tily decorated May baskets.
The exhibit of grade three, of Which
Miss Myrtle is teacher, attracted much
favorable, attention. Besides the art
work there was a display of clay mod
eling, with clever models of rabbits In
all postures, some running, sitting,
modeled just as the child's mind dic
tated as he worked with the plastis
clay. There were also vases, bowls,
pipes, steamboats, speedboats, blimps,
tanks, destroyers, submarines and last
of all a German helmet modeled by
tiny hands.'
The bird, animal and flower charts
made by this grade also showed much
artistic taste and skill worthy of spe
cial mention. -
An unusually beautiful collection of
water color paintings of floral and ag
ricultural life landscapes and water
scenes was exhibited by the pupils of
grade four. . ' ,
The exhibit showed splendid work
accomplished by the teachers and pu
pils for the term for which they are
to be heartily congratulated, and for
the splendid art exhibit much of the
credit is due to -the efforts of Miss
Emma Chandler, art teacher. Members
of the faculty are: Miss Eva Waters,
principal; Mrs. O. E. McReynolds, Miss
Myrtle Rice and Miss Katherine Went
