on u SCHOOL
As tuny be seen from nn ". tide
published in The Conyers Weekly
of f. pt. 8, there is some d: -at!;
iaction among the patrons of the
jiublic schcol occasioned Uv the
charge of $2.or per month for ail
students of the High School,
This dissatisfaction took a violent
turn at the start, much adverse
criticism of the School Board and
its rulings were heard, Most of
this talk was indulged in without
first looking into the merits of
the action of the Board aud its
authority for the same and with
<>ut considering the absolute nec
oessit.y of this High School charge
m order to meet the running
peaces of this branch of the school,
Sinco the article by the Board ap
peaved iu The Weekly we believe a
bet ter understanding is had by all
interested and the position of the
Board is more generally apprecia¬
ted. Wo are free to say that un¬
der all the circumstances the Board
has (hm ) its duty, to itself, to the
school and to the people of the
town.
There is every reason in the
world why our public school
should 1 c kept up to a high stan¬
dard and we believe that the good
people of Conyers will keep it
there, High School and all. The
Board has labored faithfully for
the school free of charge m.d their
interest in its success should be
no greater than that of the people
as a whole. The new rulings prom
negated Ivy this body for the con¬
duct of the school touches each
member of the Board (one eveept
ed) just as it does the people. It
should also lie remember d that
this exception on the Board is
taxed, is taxed just as other peo¬
ple, for school purposes and de¬
rives not a single cent of benefit.
But this is neither here nor there.
The school is more important to
tho people than money. The chil¬
dren must be educated and it is
natural that thi educat ion should
cost something. The Board has
done its duty well and faithfully
and is entitled to the praise
the people, and if the people will
do their duty by the sch ol, all
those whose children are far e
nough advanced for the High
School Depai Intent will
them at once and speak a good
word nil along the line for
scliool and the School Board

be opposed it stands to reason that
all those he has so faithfully serv¬
ed in the past will come forth on
the day of election and roll up a
majority for him that will eclipse
all former democratic victories.
His election is a foregone con
elusion but his majority should
be remarkably huge,
Let all good democrats do their
duty in this matter and their re
