TORRENCE-MORRIS COMPANY THE GIFT SHOP All Goods Engrav ed Free Reversed by Supreme Court. Many Gastonians will be Interested in a decision handed down Wednes day by the State Supreme Court in the case of Kirkpatrick vs. Piedmont Traction Co. This decision reversed the decision of the Superior Court which refused to give Kirkpatrick a verdict against the traction company for damage to his property on Frank lin avenue resulting from the opera tion over that street of the interur ban and local car lines. The Supreme court neia tnat a property owner may recover compensation where in teruroan electric rreignt cars are run upon the street in front of his property. The plaintiff in this case was Mr. J. W. Kirkpatrick. who now lives at Yorkville. It is understood that there are several other cases similar to this on the docket. MORGANTON FEARS FOR HKR SIDEWALKS. Judge Shaw Decides Against Town in Matter Taxing Properly Owners Half the Cost. Charlotte Observer. Morganton, Dec. 16. Judge Shaw handed down a decision this week which is giving the town authorities grave concern and which may have the effect of suspending all city im provements. For years here, as in other places. the property owners have been taxed with half the cost of permanent ce ment sidewalks. Upon refusal of Dr. E. S. Warlick to pay his half for a sidewalk in front of his residence and of Mrs. A. C. Avery, in front of Hotel Morgan, the town brought proceedings to col lect, holding the property liable, and under Judge Shaw s ruling nothing can be collected and the officials fear a general refusal to pay for Improve ments. It Is contended by the fearful that the owners of the lot between tne two in question had paid their part so they will probably demand the amount refunded, and if the decision stands in the Supreme Court tne town as well as other towns through out the State will be swamped witn suits. Attorneys Huffman and Avery for the town announced an appeal to the Supreme Court and the outcome will be anxiously watched by the city of ficials and will likely cause State wide interest.

It is persistently reported through out the county that he County Board of Education pays large salaries to the township supervisors for visiting the schools and helping to supervise the work in the various townships. In this report there is an implied criticism of the County Board for extravagance in handling the school funds. I have rarely taken the trouble to deny foolish reports, but, inasmuch as the above touches the County Board of Education, which is com posed of three of the safest and most conservative business men in the county, Messrs. S N. Boyce, J. H. Kudisill and ( . e. Hutchison, men who are sacrificing time and energy to secure for the county the very highest possible return for every dol lar paid into the school fund, I think it best to depart from my usual cus tom. We have a supervisor in each town ship save Gastonia. The gentlemen who fill these positions are the prin cipals of our township high schools. Each of these men has a responsible local position with burdensome du ties and each is paid for his local work a fair salary by his local board out of local funds. At my sugges tion each agreed to visit the rural schools of his township and assist the county superintendent to main tain a closer supervision of same. For this work they receive no com pensation save in a larger and more varied experience. They give to the county work only such time as can be spared from their pressing home duties and this is purely a voluntary service. Their livery bills are paid but they do not receive a cent for the extra work. F. P. HALL, County Superintendent of Schools. Belmont, X. C, Dec. 17, 1915. The County Board of Education pays no salaries to township supervisors. 3. N. BOYCE, Chairman County Board of Education of Gaston Co. The principals of the high schools at Belmont, Bessemer City, Cherry- ville, Dallas and Mt. Holly, who have served as supervisors in their re spective townships, receive no salar ies out of the school funds save that paid them by their local boards. CARL FINGER, Treasurer of Gas ton County.
