1t Is to BE Not Less Than six Months
Nor More Than Seven Months.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. S1.-At the monthly
meeting of the state Board of Education
to-day revision of the school term was
decided upon.
At the last meeting or the board 1t was
decided that the term be made six and
half months in view of the increased APP
preparation.
AT to-day's meeting this question was
again taken UP and it was agreed that
the term in each county should not be
less than six months nor more than seven
months.
The basis of all terms is fixed at six
months, but in all cases where the coun-
ty boards are desirous of holding over
for a longer term. they are authorized to
make such request of the State School
Commissioners.
This step was decided upon in view of
the fact that since the last census was
taken the number of school children has
materially increased, and some more
equitable arrangement was made neces-
sary.

NO CHANGE AT NEW BEDFORD.
Mil Hands Leaving the Town and
Contributions Pouring in.

New Bedford, Mass, Jan. 31.-The third
week of the big strike of the New Bed
ford cotton mill employees began with af-
fairs in relatively the same position as
at the outset.
1t is thought the exodus of mill hands
will continue this week. Hundreds have
already left town.
The manufacturers have as yet made
no statement. 1t is the opinion that they
will not make any effort to start the mills
for some time.
The mill hands are apparently as de-
termined as ever to resist the reduction
and some of them predict that the strike
will last well into the summer.
Contributions from the cities and towns
throughout New England and New York
state have come forward freely during
the last week and the union officials as
sert that if there is no serious distur-
bance in other big mill centers, the strik-
ers here will be able to hold out indefi-
nitely.
