Excerpt from Seventy-Eighth Annual Report of the American Colonization Society, With the Minutes of the Annual Meeting and of the Board of Directors: January 15, 1895 There is no system of local taxation in Liberia, and there is not the local sense of responsibility for these schools, nor the interest in their well-being which is desirable. It is proposed to continue Mr. Stevens in his present line of most useful work, and a part of his duty will be to hold neighbor hood meetings of parents and citizens, awaken a deeper interest in behalf of their schools, and point out ways and means by which the people in each school district can supplement the work now done by the General Government.
