By buying that scholarship in
the Tyler Commercial College
from the Deport Times. Good
positions guaranteed all gradu-
ates. _
There has been paid to the
Lamar County Tax Collector an
average of $10,000 a month since
last fall when the county attor-
ney’s office began its work of
collecting what was due the
county In delinquent taxes by
instituting suit. More than 3000
suits have been filed, and there
have been few forced sales.
This is the first time within the
twelve years that the writer has
resided in this county when any
real effort has been made by the
county attorney to collect delin-
quent taxes, yet the law is plain
in prescribing such duties. Do
puty Sheriff Baryey was in
Deport Wednesday serving cita-
tions upon those who were in
debt to the county. (
