that Johnson took hold Of the proposition,

1t seems that Johnson has not had re-

While the Americus public schools
will not open for the fall term until
23d inst, many pupils, nevertheless,
are already applying for admission
cards and are being registered and
graded. Forty admission cards were
thus issued yesterdayIto pupils.
And while there will doubtless be
room for all pupils who apply, it is
best to come early.
Supt, Mathis is in his office at Fur
low School every morning, and Will
thus register applicants while looking
after other important details incident
to the opening of school.
And just at present the indications
point to the largest attendance aud
most successful session in the history
of the schools. This was true of the
term ending in June last, when the
largest class ever graduated therefrom
were awarded diplomas.
And throughout the session the very
best results were attained.
Nearly 1900 pupils attended the
schools during the last session, and
there is reason to believe that even
this attendance will be exceeded at the
next session.
The Introduction of manual train
ing department this fall will add very
greatly to the success and efficiency of
the schools, though this feature will,
necessarily, be upon somewhat limi-
ted scale at present. But it will i'll
time grow in greatness.
The teachers will soon be at home,
all of them from their summer vaca-
tione, and ready to resume their work
witha vim.
