SCHOOL DISTRICT AND
ROAD BILLS NO GOOD.
The Supreme Court of the
state has held the acts of the
recent session of the legisla
ture invalid which causes the
Barnes school district not to
be made a part of the Mc
Crory district. By the ad
dition of the district north of
McCrory the school conditions
of both districts would have
been greatly improved and we
believe the majority of the
people of Barnes will want the
next regular session of the
legislature to pass a bill of
this kind, provided it shall not
do away with their present
school, but give them free ac
cess to the high school at Mc
Crory and also name the di
rectors of Barnes as members
of the McCrory school board.
The court’s decision, how
ever, favorably affects the
road building in this county.
Road District No. 12 had been
amended to such an extent
that it would have cancelled,
but the act of the Supreme
Court makes it possible now
to build the highway which
will connect McCrory, Jelks,
Howell, Wiville, Cotton Plant
and Hunter. About 30 miles
of road is affected.
