STATE 'SUPERVISOR
BIT TH£bGHOOLS
F. E. Land, state supervisor of
.schools, has been in Sumter county
this week inspecting some of the
county schools in company with Sup
erintendent W. S. Moore.
“Your schools compare most favor
ably,” said Supervisor Land, “with
other countier of the state not having
county-wide local tax.
“While you have eleven districts in
the county that have voted local tax
to supplement the state fund, you
need a county wide tax such as has
been voted by forty progressive coun
ties of the state.
“In my visits throughout the statel
haev not seen a mor.e prosperous look
ing and progressive farming section
than you have here in Sumter county.
“Your roads are certainly as good
a~, can be found in the state.
“You are spending money and a lot
of it on your roads and for improved
form equipment.
“You should be equally as liberal
with your schools and vote a county
wide local tax.
“With only a little over $3.00 per
capita for each school child to spend
on your schools you have done .ex
ceedingly well.
“However .this is not enough money
to bring the schools of your county
up to the standard you are setting in
ether progressive movements in the
county. You have four standard

ALBERT MAPLES IS
SAID TOJE HIDING
MOULTRIE, Ga., Jan. 29.—That Al
bert Maples, who has been indicted
for the alleged murder of C. B. Gil
more, county convict warden, will
surrender to the officers and will go
to trial next week, was a rumor that
was given, credence here today. It is
understood that a formidable array of
attorneys have already been employed
tc defend Maples in case he does give
himself up to the officers. It is stated
that Roscoe Luke, of Thomasville;
Covington & Perry, and Ragan &
Maire, of Moultrie, have been engaged
to represent the defendant, though
this report could not be confirmed. It
wad also rumored that Mr. Maples
would enter a plea of self-defense.
It will be remembered that the
trouble between Gilmore and Maples
resulted shortly after the warden
learned that two convicts had. escaped.
Immediately after firing the fatal shot
Maples fled and no definite informa
tion as to his whereabouts has been
obtained by the local authorities.
Shortly after the death of Mr. Gil-1

n’ore the county commissioners of
fered a s2i>o reward for the arrest of
Mr. Maples. This sum was after sup
plemented with S2OO by Governor Har
ria.
Maples has a wide family connec
tion in Mitchell county and it is ex
pected that h.e will ocer a vigorous
defense, in the event of his trial. Just
where the indicted man is now is un
known to the officers. One report
Itl’.is week gives a member of his fam
ily credit for saying that it would take
'Maples six days to reach Moultrie.
The general opinion, however, is
that he is not far from this port.
Thirteen Degrees
Below Zero—But
Surely Not Here
The “oldest inhabitant" now rises to
remark that spring is upon us and
that old man winter has left ofr his
summer vacation. And the signs that
are usually accepted as infallihl? have
snown up in this section of the coun
try indeed, several citizens have heard
the geese flying, while plum trees in
bed are very common..
And the balm spring weather of
Southwest Georgia is in strange con
trast to the weather in Missouri and
ether western states. A letter from
heeler Bradley, formerly a well
known resident of Americus, gives the
information tat the elements are on
tiie rampage in that country. The
gauge in his home town there register
ed thirteen degrees below zero Wed
nesday and he said the weather, was
showing no early signs of changing.
