The Great Divide.

One OF the greatest successes In
Modern drama, soul stirring and re-
srlendant with thrilling scenes is
the wonderful production of the
noted author, William Vaughn
Moody, "The Great Divide" The
scenes are laid in the great unsettled
Southwest dasert in the Territory of
Arizona during the early days Of set
llcment when all mon carried the
law In a holster at his side. The
story deals With thrilling love af-
fair and primitive emotions in which
a rough west erncr wins for his wife
a refined eastern woman. after a
series OF incidents whereby a true
man is moulded from the rough crust
OF a drunken associate of Mexicans
OF til" lowest class.
The scene wherein Ruth Jordan Is
compelled to come to an agreement
with one OF three ruffians SO that she
NAV be protected from the others

form 10 the laws and make her his
wife, afterwards regrettin2 her ac-

love which was burning IN his heart

thereby ending as fascinating a
drama as was ever staged.

Superintendent Wants to Pay
Hard Worked Tutors When
Their Salaries Are Due.

j M. L. Britain, superintendent OF the
/ Georgia public schools, is not asking
! the legislature for more money this
I year-his principal desire is to collect
what is due his department, so that the
poorly paid, hard worked teachers may
get their salaries when they are due, in
stead of dtscounting their claims or
! waiting until late in the spring. He
sent vigorous letter to the legisla-
| ture. embodied in his annual report,
urging that some means be found to
/ pay the teachers promptly.
'T am not urging any one of the sew
eral bills now looking toward that end, =
said Mr.. Britain today. Mine is an
executive office not legislative one;
and It is the legislature which must find
the ways and means. l believe 1T will
do It,"
! Mr.. Britain, since he became state
sunerintendent, has worked wonders In
improving the school system, especially
in the rural districts He is now urging
! the codihcation of the school laws,
which have become 50 tangled by
amendments and changes that they
nresent a complex problem to one seek
ing the law in any case.
The state superintendent bears the
distinction of having visited 115 coun-
ties and rendered numerous decisions
unon appeals to his authority, and not
once has he been reversed.
Would Improve Buildings.
Amone the improveme in which Su-
nerIp+endent Britain is taking especial
interest is the building of attractive ana
weu-designed school houses instead OF the
stable-like buildings and unkempt grounds
which have served as makeshifts IN 50
MANY towns In his foreward to report
on school Architecture. MT Britain
says
1T is almost as cheap to build an at
tract,ve school house as an ugly one.
| Georgia. like old Greece, is beautiful
/ land. This beauty is a practical asset
| and should not be marred by ugly build
ines. our boys and girls should not be
trained in the midst of slattern and shift
less surroundings.
The report is supplemented by pictures
and plans for school houses ranging from
little one-room structures for the settle
n,ents" to four-room buildings for the
towns. with plans and specifications and
estimates of cost Mr.. Britain obtained
the services of an experienced architect
in this work and the pamphlet has been
in great demand from school officials in
many states.
Through officers of the state board of
health he has published pamphlets on
school hygiene and the care of children
The complete report composes a we'll
bound book of more than 800 pages and
! is a valuable document for all who are
! interested in public schools and educa-
| tion in general.

FED AFTER DINNER OF
COMMERCE CHAMBER

Half hundred little children, clam
oring at windows and doors of Taft
hall during the Chamber OF Commerce
dinner last night, were given a real
treat in the way of good things to eat
and enjoyed for once the hospitality
Of the commerce body.
After the several courses had been
served to the members assembled in the
hail. Assistant Secretary Robinson
finding that many plates ready to be
served had been untouched, gathered
the little people at a side door of the
great building and turned them loose
on the surplus. Nearly 30 boys and ten
little girls graped the plates and scat
tered about the great building. Ice

Mrs. II. E White of Blake street,
Lewiston. while rumaging through her
attic the other day came upon some
copies of a Boston paper printed in
November 1861. One of the editorials
is devoted to severe criticism of
Charles Sumner for a speech delivered
the previous evening in Faneuil Hall.
The editor concluded his diatribe
against Sumner with these words;
"He is welded to his idols which are
not his. His blows are feeble, how
ever, and his determination is not
equalled by the power of his ability,
so that the harm he can do Is limit
ed" The curious part of this matter
is the fact that Summers speech was
philippe against slavery. Another
editorial is entitled: Can We Con-
tinue the War;" while still another is
devoted to cotton raising in Illinois.
The curious statement is made that
Illinois has a half million acres of
land as suitable for cotton raising as
any In Georgia. The Mason and Sill
dell affair is discussed with much jul
dicial calmness and on the whole the
paper was inclined to take the side of
this government. These papers are
indeed curious reading after more
than half a century.

Some State BOunties That Are Still
Paid.

The vicious wild animals which still
remain within the borders of Maine,
are a source of considerable public ex-
pense Those are the bears. wolves
and bobcats, upon which the State pays
a bounty. The reward from the Com
monwealth for killing a bear or wolf
Is So, and that for a wild cat is 81. Last
year the State paid out $685. for bears
that were slain, and 1926 for wildcats,
but for several years no bounty has
been sought for wolves, as those ami
mails are rare now.
Names bounties have been classified
as constructive and destructive and
their history is a long one. At one
time the State tried to encourage the
raising of corn and wheat by bounties,
and paid out 100000 before it found
the expense too great. 1t also tried to
foster the silkworm and beet sugar in
dustries, and for the latter expended
$1,000.
The first destructive bounty was in
augurated in 1880, when the Legisla-
ture sought to rid the State of crows.
The granting of $4,000 within short
time, for bounties on crows, however,
proved too much.

The first woman's college in Maine
after appropriate feminine coyness
appears about to alight In Portland
The Legislature Of 1863 granted to the
trustees of Westbrook Seminary the
right to establish such an institution
and an active movement has been
started toward taking advantage oil
that power The proposition has re-
ceived Endorsement from leading men
and women in all parts of the State
and a canvass for support Is practi-
cally decided upon. Perhaps the most
enthusiastic indorser of the idea of a
woman's college is the Hon. Payson
Smith of Augusta, Maine, State super
lntendent of public schools, himself a
graduate of the seminary. He has
stated that nearly 300 young women in
Maine are going without collegiate
education who would attend a
woman's college in their home State.
The seminary was chartered by the
Maine Legislature of 1881, and has
been under UnKersalist auspices from
the first. being the only Universalist
institution in Northern New England,
outside of churches. 1t has taken
high rank, and has gradually acquired
the equipment which would make it
possible to start next fall at doing col
legiate work If such an early begin
ming were feasible
