MEMORY or :, JDGE BLEcKLEy.
Heckiey Memorial High School to be
Established at Clayton.
(TOcoca Record.)

The memory OF Georgia's s late Chief
Justice OF the Supreme Court, Logan
T.. Bleckley, distinguished as jurist,
orator and poet, will be fittingly per-
petuated through the establishment
at Clayton, his birthplace, OF the Lo-
gan u. Bleckley Memorial High
School. On an eminence overlooking
the little mountain city, and only a
short distance from Judge Bleckley's
own "Screamer" mountain. on the
opinions were written, handsome
two-story building is now in course
OF construction, with prospects ia
vorable for the opening of the school
by November /. The building COM
pleted and furnished will have cost
$4,000, which sum, together with
an annual maintenance fund, will
represent subscriptions from friends
and admirers of the late Chief JUS
ticc in this and other States.
Although the building fund is by
no means complete, Mrs. Bleckley,
| assured Of the hearty cooperation Of
her lamented husbands admirers, is
determined that work on the building
shall not stop, and Is bending every
energy to secure its completion before
November Mrs. Bleckley has per-
sonally supervised the work since the
foundation was laid, and only recent
~ has built a home in Clayton that
she may be near the school,
The question Of educating the
mountain boys md girls Of North
| Georgia was one that strongly ap-
pealcd TO Judge Bleckley, and it is
felt that more fitting monument
to his memory could not be devised
than this school in the heart of Ra-
bun county. The building will have
seating capacity OF 160 in its four
large, we'll lighted and thoroughly
ventilated class rooms, and it will be
the purpose Of those projecting the
| school to see that no white child in
those mountains is denied an educa-
| 'ioh 'NN"uSS VI ltCR vi IlcdIlS. NOIlc
is turned away, it is hoped, for lack
| OF sufficient fund for maintenance.
when the needs OF these mountain
children are presented to the public
iii their true light and the object Of
the Logan e. Bleckley Memorial
High School is understood, those who
have already contributed to the
school fund believe that all the
mony necessary will be readily sub
Scribed.
! Haralson Bleckley, son Of the late
Chief Justice, and designer Of the
plans for Atlanta's proposed great
| civic center, is the architect of the
memorial school at Clayton, which,
when completed will be one of the
handsomest buildings in North Geor-
gia.
Mrs. Bleckley expects to pay visit
to Miss Martha Berry's school at
| Rome, Ga, within the next few weeks
and later it may be decided to add to
the Logan T.. Bleckley school certain
industrial features.
