OF the instruction itself Senior Ii

to what he had previously said, that it
constitutes treason.

POST BANKS SUCCESS
DEPOSITS IN az OFFICES IN TWO
MONTHS s1ss,sss.
Restriction on Saving over 500 In
Thirty Days Found to Work
Hardship.

Washington.-"The postal savings
bank system has been more success
full than reasonably could have been
expected"
This was the comment made Sun
day by Postmaster General Hitchcock
on the analysis of the returns from
the AZ postal savings banks which
have been in operation since January
g. The reports from the 4S second
banks are located cover the period
from the establishment of the banks
to February %, 1911 In that time
1923 accounts were opened and 1851
separate deposits were made, the ay-
erage amount of each deposit being
$21.50.
In the same period only 259 ac-
counts were closed by the drawing out
of the deposits, the total number of
open accounts on February % being
1864. The net amount on deposit at
the 48 banks after two months of OPP
Grafton was $133,S69
If the same ratio of deposits and
Withdrawals is maintained for a year,
the amount on deposit at the end of
the year would be $S03,214
The aggregate population of all the
49 cities in which postal savings banks
thus far have been established is ap.
proximately 100000
Postmaster General Hitchcock is en-
gagged in preparing for the establish.
ment of $50 additional postal savings
banks, an appropriation of $500,00O
having been made by the recent con-
gress for the extension of the system.
The list of cities in which the banks
are to be located probably will be an
nounced in the near future.

were taken in his scalp, asserted that
his mission to that neighborhood was

having his wounds dressed, told the
police that he had received a letter

Col. W. R. Power, of Marietta,
lectured at the Sunday School here
last Sunday morning. His lecture
was fine and his advice and admoni-
ton to the college pupils highly
appreciated. Col. Power has been
here number of times previous to
this and he has many friends here
who are always glad to hear him
speak. This community furnished
more teachers while he was COM
missioner than any other place and
his friends here are numerous.
Mr.. J. j. Black and daughters, of
Marietta, attended church here Sun
day.
The College opened last Tuesday
with much larger attendance than
ever before and this term promises
to be the best yet. There are more
than hundred boarding pupils be-
sides quite number of local ones.
There is scarcely a family in reach
of the school with children of school
age that is not represented there
with local pupils. 1t seems that the
people are more enthused this time
than they have ever been before and
appreciate the golden opportunity
that this school offers them and we
are proud Of the fact that the
school is all that it is represented
to be.
Mr.. Preston Carter, wife and
children, of near Dallas, spent Sun

DUE WEST.

In spite of the foggy morning and
fodder gathering season, we had a
large crowd at Due Yves. Friday,
September l, attending the educa-
tional rally given by Professor and
Mrs. J. Guy Beall.
We had the manager of the
states improvement school work,
Miss Parish, of Athens, who gave
us fine lecture on things all
persons ought to know before they
try to teach literary school, run a
farm, train children or keep home.
Also, our efficient school COM
missioner, Mr.. Awtrey, who gave us
a fine talk which touched on many
good things and especially local
taxation which opened a good
manv's eyes and set them to think
ing about the betterment of school
buildings and equipment for same
and how and where to get the
money to pay their teachers.
Also Paulding county's com
missioner sped over in his new auto
and gave us a talk on Parents,
children's and teachers duties
toward each other"
We enjoyed all the talks and
learned a great deal from all the
speakers, but Mr.. J. S. Turner,
sped away at noon to attend another
rally in his own county.
We had a few recitations and an
grafton by professor Walker, OF
Macland.
The program was not all rendered
as the day was too short. We had
good songs conducted by Mr.. T. J.
Austin.
At noon we all enjoyed bounti-
full dinner spread by the good ladies
and their fair daughters.
We give three cheers to professor
Cook and his assistant from Kirk s
Chapel for bringing the seventy-five
pupils from their school and vote
them a compliment for having them
under such good control.
There mingled with the crowd
one editor, two county school
superintendent, seven retired teach
ers and thirteen who were engaged
in the work during the year 1911.
Mr.. and Mrs. Beall send thanks
to Mr.. Charley Kemp for permission
to use his grove and also to the
citizens and community generally
for their assistance and support.
Wishing the Journal and its
readers good luck.
