THE marvellous impetus that is
being given to the growing Of corn
iii the Southern states should engage
the attention Of every farmer in
Georgia and in Lee county.
The farmers Of Lee county need

Remarkable crops Of corn have

To any one familiar with the

the rumblings OF revolution will not

1876. having had himself elected to
succeed that fugitive president.
According to the plan Of Tuxte-
pee, which Diaz had proclaimed,
he was ineligible to succeed himself.
In clever manner his secretary. Gen.
Gonzales, was elected president,
while Diaz was appointed chief-jus-
tice Of the supreme court and elected
governor Of Oaxaca. In 1884 Diaz
was again elected president, where
upon he secured through his par
tisans in 1886 the abolition Of the
law prohibiting second consecutive
presidential term in order that he
might mako himself dictator. He
succeeded more admirably in his
plan than a recent aspirapt for such
honors in this country, rs he has
been continuously reelected since
that time.

characters of the candidates and to
choose those who seemed best fitted
to make wise rules, and to force obe-

When it became a matter of deciding
between the right thing and the wrong
thing with their choice apparently free
the children were almost unanimous in
their desire to do the right thing. or at
least in the oppression of a preference
for it.
MIR. Cronson found his problem of
discipline solved. Other schools noted
for incorrigibility took up the idea. and
1T spread to many parts of the metrop-
oils.
When this nation was governing
Cuba General Wood introduced the
school city idea into that island and
it was put into operation in $500
schoolrooms on the island. Theodore
Roosevelt. as president, wrote a letter
: commencing 1t as he had seen it in
Cuba and New York.
One day while in his Office in New
York Professor Gill was visited by the
commissioner of education of the Ar
gentine republic, who had heard of the
school city and had come to learn of
it's results
While he was talking to Gill a COM

Now nearly every big city in the

So he devised the school city. Under
this plan each school to which it is ap-
piled is organized into a little self
governing community. 1t elects it's own
officers makes it's own laws, subject to
the higher power Of the teacher, as the
municipality is subject to the constitu-
ton, appoints its own administrators
and executives and, as far as possible,
puts the responsibility for the peace
and order of the community on the lit
tie citizens themselves.
1t was in 1897 that the school city
plan was first tried in actual practice.
