by Randolph Anderson, OF Chatham

en- prominent in educational work in
Georgia. has received the sanction of
the educational committee and will go
to the house with a report which will
assure its passage.
kindergarten workers, club women
and school teachers appeared before the
committee yesterday afternoon and
convinced the Legislators of the abso-
lutte necessity of free hndergartens in
Georgia cities Among those who
awaited themselves Of the opportunity
of voicing their approval of the bill
were Mrs E. B. Smith, of the Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs; Mrs Mary Nc
Lendon. of the w. C. T. u; Mrs Ed
ward r. Brown, of Atlanta; Miss Carol

dergarteh training school at Athens;
Miss Edwina Wood, superintendent of
the Columbus kindergartens; Gunby

who have been urging the bill are Miss
Gertrude Cohen, Mrs. j. S. Lacy, Miss
D. Laudauer, Miss Mary Barnwel, Mrs
William V. Kriegshaber, Mrs, Carl
Kaiser and Mrs r. c. Little.
The kindergarten bill is general in its
nature and provides that money from
the common school fund of the state
may be used by county or municipal
boards of education for kindergartens,

the measure believe they will have won
a real battle if the state places the
right to establish kindergartens in the
hands of local school authorities
