CURRENT COMMENT
Concerning County Uarelessly Guile

Concerning County Carelessly Cniled.
We are glad to see the interest
the people of our county are TAX
ing in educating their daughters.
1t has not been o great while
since young lady graduate was
a curiosity, but at present fally as
many, if not more girls than boys,
nre given a collegiate education.
This is right, for it is said the wo-
men shape the destiny of men,
and we want them to shape it in a
high style of educational art.
A Cuthbert contemporary states
that Randolph county man has
a mule that has made thirty four
crops. In this connection we
want to say we are glad to notice
a commendable move AMONG O
number Of our farmer friends to
raise their own stock. Home
raised stock is 10 times better than
that from the West, and with but
little care and attention mules
can be raised IN our county from
which twenty years Of goo1 ser
vice can be counted on with GER
tainty.
Country,or cross roads" stores,
as they art more familiarly known,
have materially cut off the trade
OF the town stores and naturally
the latter are made to grumbIe.
There are i'll Terrell county
number Of these rural houses that
do good businesses, and sell goods
as cheap as they can be bought in
the towns, and how they can af-
ford to do it is wonder, having
to haul them many miles in
wagon and selling small amounts
of them. Our town merchants
would be glad to find some way
to get these thorns from their
sides, but this is a free country
and if those in the country can
make a living selling goods those
IN town ought to do likewise and
all move along serenely.
We have heard some complaint
about the increased number of
country schools" in the county.
1t is claimed that they are damag-
ing to the high schools. That
may be true, but we take it as a
good omen of increased
interest the education among
The masses. The present
free school system causes
a great deal of this increase in
the number of country schools,
many Of which only run for the
free term and are not very benef-
cial, but those that run regularly
the scholastic year are capable of
doing great good. In many in
stances it would not be possible
for parents to send their children
to school if they could not send
them right at home, and they
would not go at ali, OF very little.
1t Is noticeable that some good
instructors have charge of These
small schools, and while they do
not make anything hardly from
them they educate children that
would otherwise grow up in igno-
rance.
