Recovers Stolen Valise
Rev. H. S. Dixon of^Sparks,
w_ile awaiting the .arrival
the eleven o’clock train her£,
last Saturday, to take him
Screven, bad his Valise, stolen
fram the dspot whil 3 he la
gone out of the waiting room f(r
a short ’While. He immediately
reported the loss to marshal Wil
liams who used every effort to
find the thief but without avail. ■
A letter from Rev. Mr. DjxcH
received here Tuesday stated the
stolen valise had been shipped
to him at Sparks from Jesup but
it bore no evidence that would ev¬
indicate the name of the sen'
der. When stolen it contained
articles of value only to the ow¬
ner which no doubt had some¬
thing to do with its return.
Mr. J. A. Hilton of Screven
was in Jesup Tuesday on business
connection with the recently
bank at that place.
Mr. M. E. Career is the owner
a cow that recently became
mother of triplets all of which
now living and apparently in
condition.

About Loca+Taxation
(Intended for *last i?sue)
Mr. Editor: s * 1 •
Please alio tv me space in your
columns to express my .views
with reference to thd local school:
tax recently 'adooted by"t\ r ayr\s
County. Inasmuch &s*fhe rna|f -
itj’of the people of Way he County
have seen fit to impose who have
chi’dren to 1 educate as well ! as
those who have none, 1 think it
only faif and right then to force
eyery parent to send theif" child
rep, to school, at lehst during the
tune the schools are absolutely
free, this in order that the money
may be utilized as intended. There
will be very near, "if not quite as
much Of this monej^extorted from
people that have already slaved
and educated their children
as those that have yet children to
educate; therefore I think that
our Legislature should pass a hw
to give each and every child the
benefit qf this extra tax. Should
this fail to be dpiyj, those children
that do not spyyiaHy need 4ffiis
extra help \yill,ba*the ones that
get it, and those that do specially
need it will go on,-as they
heretofore, withouUit.j., If \*e are
going to use force on tre one side
lets have it equally strong on the
other. I opposed this tax -for the
eason that 1 did not believe it
would reach those it was intended
to reach without coivmulsory atton
lance, something;else that I have
opposed, until this local
school tax was passed, but now
I think it absolutely necessary in
that all may .sharp: alike.
I would like to hear,.from others
this subject. •
