School Hours Changed
Board Of Education Meets
And Fixes Hours for
Study. Naturalization
Fee Abolished.

Two important matters came up
before the board of education last
night and were disposed of. The
first was the fixing of the hours
for school sessions from 8 to II O.
clock a. m. and from 1:15 to 3:15
p. m. This is aslight change from
last year. The other matter was
the naturalization fee of 80 cents
per term fixed sometime ago. This
was done away with and now the
text books and tuition will be ab-
solutely free to students who are
residents Of the city. The same
rate of tuition will be charged as
heretofore to nonresident students.

Vaughn District
School Growing

One of the most progressive dis
tricts in Ben Hill county is
Vaughn's district. Especially is
this true with reference to schools.
Two years ago when that school
was first opened there were only
about dozen scholars to attend.
Last year the average was nearly
fifty, and during the spring term
the average was over fifty.
So rapidly has the school in that
district grown that last winter a
new school building was erected
for accommodating of the ever in
creasing attendance. The board Of
trustees, Messrs. FL. j. Stone, III.
D. Vaughn and j. T. Garrison, are
to be commended for the work they
are doing in this line and for hay
ing been able to again secure as
teacher Miss Annie Mccall, who
served the school SO efficiently last
year.
The trustees of the school were
in Fitzgerald yesterday making ar
rangements for painting and repair
ing the school building and putting
it in the best of shape for the com
ing 19O8-9 term, which is to con-
mence this week. They stated to
a reporter of the Enterprise that
they expected that the average
attendance this year would run
close to seventy five scholars, and
this fact is startling when we con-
slider that there were only hand
full two years ago.

Government Studies
Naval Stores Industry

The government has just begun
a study to determine the magni-
tude of the naval stores industry
in this country. For a long time
manufacturers of naval stores
have worked under difficulties
owing to the lack of statistics
dealing with the industry. At the
present time there is no reliable
information in regard to the
amount of naval stores produced
or the amount of timber still cap
able of producing them.
The United States Forest Service
has for some time been making ex-
periments to determine the rela-
tive efficiency of the cup and gut
system and the old boy system of
turpentining. This work is being
continued and in addition statis-
tics showing the annual produc-
ton of naval stores will be collect
ed. A careful study will also
be made of the effect which the
present system of boxing has up
on the life of trees which have been
tapped. The work has met with
the hearty cooperation of manu-
facturers Of naval stores and shows
promise of being of considerable as
sistance to every one interested in
the production of turpentine and
rosin.

committee of the Populist party,
has issued call for a meeting of
that organization to be held in At
lanta at 10 O'Clock on Monday
morning, September. The nam
ing of an electoral ticket for the
state of Georgia will be the most
important business transacted by
the committee, although other
matters of minor Importance may
come up for consideration.
1t is stated by Secretary B0den
himer that the Popuiists propose
to take no hand in state affairs,
except to wage a determined fight
to secure the electoral vote of
Georgia for Mr.. Watson, the Pop
ulist candidate for the presidency.
In the effort to attain that end
other speakers, it is said, will be
placed in the field later on in the
campaign.

Doves and Deer Can
Now Be Slain.

Tuesday opened the season for
the hunting of deer, marsh hens,
snipe, woodcock and summer
ducks. The deer privilege extends
to January first, the marsh hens
and snipe open season to March fif-
teenth and the woodcock and sum
mer duck to February first. Doves
are in season from July fifteenth to
March fifteenth, this privilege hav-
ing been the only one which went
through the last session of the legis-
Iaturc. The former opening date
was September first. Wild turk
ey, pheasant, partridge and quail
can be shot between November first
and March fifteenth inclusive.
While deer and snipe may be
plentiful there is "a little luck in
the summer duck, which has form
erly been killed in great numbers.
The indiscriminate slaughter OF
these birds has caused them to
gather in only five or six in the
number at a time, and they are be-
coming widely scattered, even
though they raise in this vicinity.
There is a possibility of an increase
in the number of these ducks if the
hunters would be more discrimin-
ate, but if the young and old alike
are shot down there is great prob
ability of the disappearance Of the
summer duck.

bill, known as the "Skiddo" meas
ure on account of the fact that it
was introduced by twenty three
senators, has been formally adopt
ed by the senate and goes to the
house for concurrence. AS the

Knight, Steed, Skies, Weaver-lO.
The provision abolishing the pris-
on commission was stricken from
the substitute.
The provision for an income tax
of one half of one per cent on all
incomes was eliminated.
The proposed tax on imitation
beers was reduced from two to one
hundred dollars on dealers; the tax
of $500 on manufacturers remains
unchanged.
An amendment requiring the
members of the prison commission
to give all of their time to the dis
charge of their duties was passed.

stitute follow:

Toledo, O., Sept. 1.-Veterans
and other visitors attending the
national encampment of the Grand

find before them a program of bust
ness and pleasure calculated to
keep them exceedingly busy during
the entire day. The vents of en-.

of the several auxiliary organiza-
tions to complete reports to be
presented to the annual meetings
to be held during the next few days.
The big event Of Tuesdays pro.
gram of interest was the dedica-
tion of the monument ON the site
of Fort Meigs, at Perrysburg. The
monument marks the place where
General William Henry Harrison
defeated Proctor, the British gen.
eral, and Tecumseh, his Indiad al
ly, in 1913. The dedication was
accompanied by interesting exer-
cises which were participated in
by the national and state officials
of the G. A. r., the OHIO National
Guard, and the chief executives of

several other states.
Everything is in readiness for
the formal opening Of the encamp-
