Il IL 10 be sincerely regretted
that our state institutions can
not get along without friction
between those in authority and
the student bodies. Now Il is the
A. and NJ. that Ia OF promises to
be in the Iimelight.
II is understood that the boys
at the college felt that in passing
certain new rules the faculty re-
flected on the honor of the stu
dents and was insulting to an ex-
tent that could not be overlooked.
Resolutions were drawn up ask
ing that the rules be rescinded
and apology made. This Presi-
dent Hightower and the faculty
refused, so the whole student
body marched odt of chapel and
failed to report for classes all
day Friday. 1t is not known
what the outcome will be, but it
is supposed that the board of
trustees, which is to meet at
the college Monday, will take a
hand in the matter.

On account of the depleted con-
dition of the city treasury. men,
bers of the council could not see
their way clear to donate the full
amount requested. but gave the
daughters five hundred dollars.
The council formally accepted
the donation of the tract of land

EFT Lee to be used for park pur-
poses. Mr.. Lee. who is now
general counsel for the Illinois
Central railroad company with

Rarely. II ever. has a visitor 70
impressed himself and his IDEAS
upon the students and faculty of
the /. and G. a. did President
Branson Of the State Normal Of
Georgia. in his three day visit
last week.
On the invitation Of the Co
operative Club. which consists of
certain women of the faculty
united for active social service
of various kinds. DR.. Branson
came to explain and to set on foot
in this college a movement SINH
lar to one he has directed so sue
cessfully in his own for two years
past that interest has been
aroused throughout that state,
and educators in all parts of the
country are watching it earnest
ly and hopefully.
A study separately and then
comparatively of the counties of
Georgia, to show their real con-
dition socially and industrially is
in substance what the students
and faculty of the Georgia school
have begun so practically and
thoroughly as to incite in other
schools and colleges a desire to un-
dertake such work. In three or
four addresses in the chapel, DIR.
Branson graphically and attract
lively set forth the purpose, ma
ture, and methods of this study
of counties; and to the Co-opera.
tive Club and several county
clubs already organized he more
particularly gave directions as to
organization of county clubs, and
as to sources of information,
scope Of the work, and the veri-
fication and publication Of results.
The undertaking is purely vol
untary and outside of the regular
course. A room will be set apart,
furnished comfortably, and am
ply provided with the material
necessary for such study as rapid
ly as it can be gathered by those
enlisted in the movement.
President Whitfield is deeply
interested and will help in every
way possible, guiding and stimu-
lating what he evidently believes
the most important work ever
undertaken voluntarily and so
widely and enthusiastically in
the college.
The Cooperative Clubs to be
cordially commended for its lead
ership in a study which will be
of incalculable benefit to those
actively engaged in it, and later.
it is hoped, be the means of
awakening the counties of the
state to their true .tatus and
stimulate in them a general
movement toward a more vigor-
Gus and healthful life-domestic,
educational, industrial and relig-
ious.
