THE BALLOON CRAZE
HAS STRUCK ATLANTA

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 16, 1902.
To the Editor of The Journal:
Dear Sir: It might be Of interest to
some OF your subscribers to know that
the so-called Balloon craze has struck
town. On any fine Day thets ynight De OBJ
served, rising from the principal streets
and buildings in the center OF the city,
numerous balloons with notes attached
to them. r,hR ~ co.
Sometimes there are as many as three
tied together. One enteFpTising young
man sent three of from the thirteenth
floor Of the Empire building. They bore
a self-addressed postal card with instruc-
tions thereon that the finder kindly adj
wise as to place and time OF finding; It viii
be a matter Of great interest as to how
long these little toys last and the sender
is watching every mail in the hopes Of
finding his postal card.
Two balloons-a red and blue one
may be seen hanging on a wire next to
the Gould building. They also bore note
but alas, their mission failed. It's sad to
relate but they certainly look like 20 cents
hanging to the wire for dear life.
Yes. the ballon business is on the boom
and seems to be rising.
Yours truly,

AN APPEAL TO
THE LEGISLATURE

To the Editor of The Journal:
Plato saws. What you want in the ma
ton tomorrow, put into the schools to-
day. The future hope Of Georgia lies
in the youth of today and the development
of our youth mentally, physically and
morally. is in the hands of the teachers.
How important it Is, therefore, that the
teacher be we'll equipped in every re-
spect for the noble work before him-that
of moulding character, either for veal
or for woe.
It is at the State Normal school, just
outside the limits of Athens, that the
teachers of Georgia receive that mental
and moral training necessary for sue
cessful teaching career. Its corps OF
teachers can not be surpassed anywhere
in the south. It's president. Prof. Z. =.
Branson, with his great, big, generous
heart Is toiling day after day, and often
far into the night. devoting mis- whole
time. talent. and much financial aid, TO
the upbuilding OF this institution.
The teachers are likewise exerting them
selves to the utmost in behalf Of the
school. I do wish that every member OF
the Georgia legislature could visit our
school. I wish they could see the student
body-4OO strong-f1le into the chapel every
morning, and look into their bright, happy
faces as they join in the beautiful songs
OF praise and thanksgiving; could see
them as they listen reverently to some
portion OF Gods word. for these teachers
realize that the most important lessons
of all are those learned from the book Of
life: and could witness the eagerness with
which the students enter into the
recitations. o, how we long for
knowledge! How we love to delVe
into the store-house OF wisdom and bring
forth it's richest ore! How untiringly the
teachers and students, banded together
In a common cause. are striving for the
best and highest things Of life! But
alas! Our earnest efforts are inpeded by
serious Observation-Disclosures which the
legislature can and we hope will remove.
There are about $50 students enrolled.
while the dormitory capacity is only 200.
Every room is crowded, Railways are
curtained off into rooms. while a large
number Of students are boarding out IN
