ADMISSION TO THE BAR.
Supreme Court VIII Now Ask Cues
tions aud Pass on ADpIicants


tions aud Pass on Applicants.
After next Monday, Aug. l, there will
be change in the procedure with refer
ence to the admission of lawyers to the
bar, which win no doubt make it a little
more difficult for applicants TO get In,
than has been the case heretofore.
In place Of the judge of the Superior
Court who acts upon the advice Of COM
mittee from the bar, the Supreme Court
VIII hereafter be the judge Of the qualiti-
cations of all applicants for admission.
Ihis IS in accordance with law passed
at the last session Of the general assembly
which makes several important changes in
the manner Of the admission of appli-
cants.
Heretofore the judge of the Superior
Court has appointed a committee from the
members of the bar in the case of each
applicant and the examination has been
conducted in his presence by the commit
tee at any convenient time. The candidate
was admitted upon a recommendation of
proficiency from the committee. OF course,
a certificate of good moral character was
always necessary as viii be the case under
the new law.
Now the state Supreme Court win form
ulate the questions to be asked of appd-
cants for admission, and will name the
time or times during the year when ex-
amlnations are 10 be held. These examtn-
atoms will be held in the Superior Courts
oil the state, and win be the same for all
applicants at the same time. The ques-
tons must be answered in writing instead
or orally, as at present, and the appli-
cant signs number instead of his name
TO his paper. His name and number 80
along with his paper in a sealed envelope
The papers are all sent to the Supreme
Court, which viii pass upon their merits
and decide who are and who are not en-
titled to admission TO the bar.
The situation will be one of considerable
difficulty for some applicants, more so
than under the old system where there
was some chance for favoritism It's re
suit viii be good, however, in that it will
insure thorough preparation on the part
of all applicants before they enter the
legal profession.
The law does not interfere in anywise
with schools whose diplomas now entitle
their holders to adm ssion, such as the
law school of the University of Georgia,
nor does it interfere with those from other
states already admitted who seek admis-
sion to practice in Georgia. The Supreme
Court will probably order examinations
held once or twice a year all over the
state, wherever there are applicants for
admission

VISITORS TO QUARANTINE.
Mayor MeIdrim's Ruling as the
Right TO visit the Station.

10 NlSIN Nne SNuN1Ons
There has been some question with
Health officer LeHardy as to who should
be allowed from the city to visit the quar-
antine station while the rules governing
it are in effect He has maintained that
none but immunes should be allowed there
while vessels are under quarantine, though
he has made no effort to have such a rul-
ing put into effect.
DR.. LeHardy decided to let Mayor Mel
drim pass on The matter the other day
when City Engineer Winn requested the
use of the tug Theckia for the purpose Of
going to the station with a number of of
hcials. When the request was referred to
the Mayor he promptly granted it without
even questioning the reason it was referred
60 him
1T is my opinion" said DR.. LeHardy
yesterday, that there is danger from any
except immunes going TO the station while
there is a probability Of infection there.
This question seems never to have been
raised before, but l desired to refer it to
the Mayor that l might be sure of the
proper course 10 pursue in the future. Now
that il is settled, ] shall feel no hesitancy
in promptly granting requests for the tug
whenever they are sent me by those hav-
ing the right TO visit the station"
The visits of officials while the quaran-
tine rules are in effect, from May l TO
Nov !, have not been questioned hereto
fore. 1t would appear rather difficult to
keep up the improvements at the station
during this time unless the officials went
there, Notwithstanding it might be at some
risk to the public health.

Outlook Good for Quite an Influx OF
Scandinavian Farmers.


The Georgia and Alabama Railroad ex-

from the Northwest the coming fall and
winter. AT Listonia, a point about eleven
miles this side of Cordele, there are now
seven or eight families of Scandinavians.
The attention of others has been attracted
to This section by their presence there and
the liberal advertising Georgia received
from the visit of the scandinavian editors
some months ago. Inquiries show that
there is quite disposition among the
