Some important school legislation which will engage the attention of the coming session of the Texas leg islature will include the county unit plan of administration, the English language la w. the ru ral aid appro priation and the necessary legislation, to put into effect the better school amendment. Another thing which we should urge at this time is the payment of poll taxes. If otir women wish to hare their influence felt in the affairs of the state, they must accept the responsibility that has been placed upon them in making them full fledged citizens. During the month of January every parent-teacher as sociation 4n the state should organise and carry on an active campaign and see to it that ewry woman in the community possesses herself with a poll tax receipt. Kemember that 11 ot each poll tax belongs to the public school fund. The success of our work for the coming year will depend entirely upop the support and cooperation which I feel sure you and your or ganization will give me. and I wish to assure you that I shall put forth every effort to serve you in promot ing the great cause in which we have enlisted. Wishing for you a success ful year's work.
