Why Consolidated Schools
Pay
The Dublin Messenger has assem
bled the following twelve reasons
why consolidated schools pay:
1. “A one-teacher school is like a
car without a top, chains, side cur
tains, tool box and an instruction
book in muddy and rainy weather.”
—Robie Prickett, Talladega Cos., Ala.
2. “Next there are a great many
more children attending the consoli
dated schools now than before. Al
though wc have tb pay a small tui
tion, the advantages are so numerous
that every one is willing to pay it.”
—Lucilc Pullington, Jones county,
Ga.
3. “It has been the means of
binding the town and county people
together in a closer fellowship and
interest.”—P., Worth county, Ga.
4. “We have the parent-teachers'
meeting now in the consolidated
schools which keeps them striving to
make better men and women out of
their boys and girls.”—Beatrice Car
penter, Rutherford county, N. C.
5. “Since the school started not
a family has moved away and we
have 12 new families within 1 1-2
miles of the school house, to say
nothing of the new ones on the truck
lines.”—L. L- H., Harris county, Ga.
6. “I am receiving a diploma
from the junior grade (2-year high
school) when if it had not been
for this consolidated school in reach
of our community I would have gone
no further than the seventh grade,
for my father was unable to send me
off to school.”—A. M., Walker coun-
ty, Ala.
7. “It gives the primary grades
the advantage of a teacher to one
or two grades instead of seven gra
des to the teacher.”—W. B. L.
8. “The Students whose scholas
tic ambition had hitherto scarcely
reached grammar school graduation,
I aroused by new contact and oppor
jtuoity, are now reaching out after
. high school advantages. The dullards
under expert treatment are making
their grades.”—E. G., Charlotte
county, Va. '
9. “Nothing has increased our
work toward greater things as has
our school. It has increased the co
operative spirit of the community; it
has increased the interest in college
education.”—Reader.
10. “Although the consolidation
has completed its mission it is doing
a great work and if it continues to
progress in the future as it has in the
past five years, the county will cease
to send its boys and girls to the city
to make their homes.”—J. B. H., La-
Fayette county, Miss.
11. “Wo realize that we can do
as well as the people of cities and
villages, if we only co-operate to
gether and depend more on oursel
ves.”—Mae ,Lo\ve, Guilford county,
N. C.
12. “Gathering all things togeth
er the child fa conolidated school
may say with the Boy Scout, I am
enabled to keep thyself physically
strong, mentally awake and morally
straight.”—Jimmie Vitwar, Milan
county, Texas.

The Governor’s Tax Recom
mendations
Complete change of Georgia’s tax
system by the substitution of a clas
sification tax and an income tax
for the present ad valorem system
under the equalization plan, and is
suance of $10,000,000 to $15,000,-
000 in state bonds to improve and
expand the entire educational facili
ties of the state, were advocated by
Governor Clifford Walker in a spe
cial message delivered Tuesday to
the general assembly, meeting in
joint session at the state capitol.
The governor did not propose the
absolute abandonment of the adva
lorem system, but declared that it
had broken down as applied under
the equalization program, and he
urged the necessity of classification
land income taxes as the best and
most feasible method of supplemen
ting the state revenue without im
posing an undue burden on any one
class or property. Many of the fea
tures of the old ad valorem program
would be embodied in the classifica
tion tax, but the equalization plan
would be abolished.
He did not define any plan for
combining them that would eliminate
the imposition of double taxation, al
though he did make tw'o specific rec
ommendations in the connection, one
that the income tax should be limited
to 5 per cent on net incomes, arid
that intangible wealth be taxed in
general, without further clasification,
at one-half of 1 per cent.
| Commenting on the suggested
plan, the Atlanta Constitution says:
* m
“If the two systems are to be joint
ly accepted, however, there must be
worked out a definite plan by which
a property, at whatever rate it may
be classified, shall not pay ad valor
em tax plus an additional tax on the
net income from such a property.
) “This applies to cultivated farms as
much as to town and city proper
ties.
“The governor made no specific
suggestion as to how such a welding'
of the two systems could be made in
order to eliminate double taxation.
This is the milk in the cocoanut.
“He suggested that intangible pro
perties be taxed for state purposes
at one-half of 1 per cent. The law
imposes that same rate now, and the
governor declared very correctly
that intangibles are kept off of the
digests because, with county and mu
nicipal rates added, the total is con
fiscatory. The governor omitted to
suggest that if the intangibles are
forced to the state digests at the
five mill rate, which is the suggested
one-half of 1 per cent, that they
should be exempted from county and
municipal taxation. Perhaps he meant
this, otherwise the confiscation he
admits would be made effective.
“The proposed net income rate of
5 per cent, maximum, is high, and
especially if it must be imposed as
an additional tax to a property tax,
even if the latter is classified.
“We need more money for the
state. We need to look upon taxes
as investments in the services of
government. We need to distribute
taxes fairly. We need to reach those
with large salary or commission in
comes who own no real estate, there
fore at present escape taxation, but
who enjoy both the services and pro
tection of government.
“But we cannot afford to penalize
one or more classes of our citizens
—successful farmers standing out
most prominently—in order even to
withdraw the present regrettable im
munity to another class.”
BUILDING DESTROYED
SIX MONTHS AGO, BUT
FIRE IS STILL BURNING
Milledgevflle, Ga.-—Construction
on the building for the Georgia State
College for Women is going forward
rapidly.
The new class room building is ex
pected to be ready for occupancy by
the opening of the college year in
September.
In clearing away the debris of the
old building which was destroyed by
fire on December 8, it was discovered
that a portion of the old ruins was
! still burning. The coal bin in the
basement of the bulding was covered
with brick and the fire was never ex
tinguished, When the workmen re
moved some of the brick arid debris
from the ruins the coal pile was still
burning and was so hot that it was
impossible to get within several feet
of that portion of the building.
The cornerstone of the old building
that was destroyed by fire was laid
on November 27, 1890, by John S.
Davidson, then grand master of Ma
sons of Georgia.
Have you tried any of that
good old Headlight Flour?
It sho is good.—Kesler &
Legg.
