Instructive Anniversaries. , chtn0tnn uaraId


 The Georgia Legislature happily
 did not do several things that 1t threatened. To It's positive credit Is to be placed the creation of "Geor- gia Day." The 12th of February each year, will be observed in the public
 schools of the State as the anniversary
 of the landing of the first colonists in Georgia under oglethorpe. The act in- structs the State Commissioners of
 schools to cooperate with the County
 School Superintendents in devising ceremonies calculated to impress the
 importance of that event upon the minds of the children. All of these ex- ercises will be designed not only to
 emphasize the initial arrival of the col- 1 onists but to encourage the further study of the history of the State. These local programs will include pa- triotic songs and recitations by the pupils. and addresses fitting the ooca sion by prominent citizens This reo- oenftion of an anniversary commemor- due to the commendable advocacy oi the Daughters of the American Revo- lution.
 Attention has been called repeatedly of late to the increasing number of holidays in the United States some of them only of State observance. The tendency has been criticised as not in
 
 fly. That criticism may or may not hold good. according to the dignity oi purpose in the holiday and the method Of it's observance. But it may be
 noted that the Oglethorpe anniversary
 in Georgia is not holiday in the sense of mere merrymaking. howeve, wholesome a form that may assume Rather is 1t day of sound instruct. ion in history. conveying lessons ct courageous enterprise. and valid req sons for lifelong pride in the spirit and traditions of the child's nn- tive State. The exercises are a break ! in the routine of school work. but they are made a part of the general process of education. This plan in | Georgia merits imitation. Every Com. monweaith in the Union has some
 day that marks an initial point in it' history. and whose significance can hl impressed upon its receptive youth
 Moreover. the observance of such day'
 will not be without benefit to the ei' l ders.
