H. Ham for April 17th, the date of the county primary. Notice of the call for the election is given in this issue of The Progress. The movement for the county unit system of education is one of the most progressive taken by Butts county in a long, longtime. Already five school districts have voted local taxation to supple ment the state school fund. The roll of honor includes: Cedar Rock, Stark, Jenkinsburg, Oak Hill, Fincherville. Jackson’s public schools are not included in the proposed sys tem of taxation. The people of the entire county have manifested much interest in the county unit system of ed- ucation and it is not believed there will be any serious opposi tion to the movement. Counties all around Butts have adopted this method and better results are to be seen in their educational affairs. Butts county cannot af ford to lag behind in the march of progress. Remember the date of the elec tion and get busy in the interest of better schools for Butts county.
