satIon they may decide is right.


TO complete the councils route,
G. Z. McCulloch then took up the ar
gument, and read from ain ordinance
past three years ago by the council,
in which the board is specifically Civ
en- the power to control admission to
the schools, and in which the sixty
day ordinance is repealed That or
dinance seems to have been generally
forgotten, for the sixty day ordinance
has In some cases been enforced up 60
a very short time ago. and even some
of the school board were of the opin-
ion it wasstill in force.
At this point Alderman Wilkinson
voiced the opinion of the council
then he said, swell, / guess you fell
lows have got us. All we can do is to
repeal our ordinance and ask for for
giveness." A repeating ordinance
was accordingly drawn and past unan
imously. AS matters now stand, the
sixty day ordinance is no longer in
existence, and the matter of admitt-
ing out of town pupils to school is left
with the school board.
After the compromise agreement
had been reached A. Il. Churchill
called meeting OF the school board
and committee was appointed to
visit the schools and find out just how
many more pupils can be accommodate
ed. 1t will be the intention of the
school board to admit as many out OF
town pupils as possible, tho the tut
tion will doubtless be fixed at S2, or
possibly little more than that. 1T
was stated, however thai accomoda-
tions would be found somehow for
those few children, at least, who paid
the tuition fee and received receipts
from the city treasurer under the or
dinance which has now been repealed.
The council before adjourning,
adopted resolution extending until
March l the TIME IN which taxes are
to be paid without the imposition Of
the penalty.

PROFESSIONAL LABOR Leaders

It is a great thing to be a preacher,
says Rev. Charles stelzle. That is. the
right kind of preacher. One whose
sympathies are as broad as humanity.
and as high as heaven. There IS no
occupation which today has greater
possibilities In It for manly men. Il
Is far from being an out-ofdate Job.
Nothing may be made more modern,
because Il touches men at every point
Of the lives.
But we can't all be preachers,

monopoly OF the opportunities which
are coming 20 men for the building

CRIMINAL OF 4 CENTURY.


Each century IN history has pro

says The Atlanta Constitution, whose
deeds stand out with revolving clear
ness that gives him unreasonable
distinction over other men or women
who have wantonly stepped outslds

Taking the testimony from his own
lips as guidance, It is likely that Har-
~ Orchard, chief witness for tho
prosecution In the famous Haywood
trial, win be written down as the most
glaring criminal product OF the CEN
fury in which We are now living.

the elements demanded by that great
master of criminology, in the horri.
flying outline he has drawn Of the
ideal murder.
Human life seems to have meant
nothing to this man. The abrupt end

snuffing out Of fourteen lives, appeal to
him, apparently. as possessing all the
ingredients OF the commonplace, The

ghost OF HIS victims do not rise up TO
confront him, as. with the nonchalance
OF an after-dlnner speaker, he strings
together the red and brutal story that
sickens even the morbid listening au-
dience.
One reads with amazement as the
chapters come, unhesitating, from the
impermrbable man n the Witness
