The building program in Jasper county at present is expressive of excellent judgment. It is only the school corporations now building that are forced to do so on account of a building necessity. Farmers are compelled to build when their homes become unbearable. A number of up-to-date homes are in the , process of construction as a result of necessity. The same business judgment should color public actions as private. If it become a building necessity in any corporation then it would be the least economy to cater to erection of buildings many years behind the schooltimes. This is the position taken by the trustees : who are being

forced into acting. Those who force the trustees to act by virtue of Hie law are patrons who send children to the local schools and are ably qualified to pass judgment upon the question of necessity. This is recognition of the princi£le that the people should be capale of judging their own needs. The State Board of Tax Commissioners think otherwise, but We are not prone to accept their construction of autocracy. The autocrat? in a democracy- should be the people and this is precisely the program being executed in Jasper county in this building matter. Trustee Davisson of Barkley is planning a trip to Lake county to examine the up-to-date school houses so that he can give the people of Newland and southern Barkley the most efficient as well as economical school buildings within his power. Such service from a trustee is most gratis but it presents the interest our school officials take in judicious spending of

the people’s money. Trustees Bowie, Rush, Porter and LeFever are facing similar situations and when the people signal through legal channels that they must act then they will act with the same spirit of service that now prompts the Barkley township trustee. Trustee LeFever of Gillam is able to be up and around again. He met with a severe accident about March Ist. While throwing down hay from the barn loft he fell through the man hole and was severely hurt. James Stevens of Gillam reports that his wife is mending very nicely again.
