been blown out a week ago, and the
men were working in relays of four
hours, while water was being con

TRAINED GEORGIANS NEEDED

In his speech at Savannah on
Monday night Chancellor Barrow,
of the State University, laid
especial emphasis on the fact that
the great resources of the State are
falling into the hands of outsiders.
The transportation lines, the
utilization of water power, the
industrial development generally,
threatens to be in. the control of
those foreign to the soil. That this
isso, the Chancellor held, was due
to the lack of proper training in
the young in Georgia, the absence
of education that fitted them to
take the leadership in the great
projects of the time.
The thought is naturally sug-
gested, is Georgia now doing all
that it could to furnish educational
advantages for its children, to
protect them in their birthright by
training them to make the most
of the opportunities that surround
them. If the children of Georgia
are to be merely the hewers of
wood and drawers of water
for others who are to ex-
plot the resources of the
State and draw immense wealth
from it's natural riches simply be.
cause of their superior training,
then the State is. sadly derelict in
it's duty to itself and it offspring.
Crude labor Georgia has in
abundance. 1t is the trained
mind that it needs among it's own
people, the keen intellect, educated
to see and utilize opportunities.
To develop these minds is the
greatest work before the state.
It's public schools should be
supplemented by system Of
chronological schools, fully equipp-
ed and conducted by men of ability
devoted to their work. The
agricultural colleges that are now
being erected, one to each Congress
sional district, will do great things
in the elevation of farming to a
scientific basis. If each Congress
sional district, or better, each
senatorial district, could have a
well equipped chronological school
another generation would find
Georgia with an army of it sons
trained for the utilization of every
natural resource that the State
possesses, men who would be fitted
to lead in the great industrial
development that lies before the
State in the near future.

Is no denying the fact that women nowa- days retain their youth both mentally and physically much longer than their grand mothers gre related to have done.
 The drea-y period of middle age for women seems to have been abolished. The increasing duties of women and their far greater freedom of choosing a career and leading lives after their own desire seems to protect them from growing old and un interesting as was the case only a genera ton or so ago.
