Elementary Schools, all applican..
must be graduates of Normal Schools
OF high grade, equal to that of tba
State Normal School, and preference
Is given to those having had expert
ence. In the High School, an appli.
cant for a teachers place must have
college degree and must have bal
special training in the work of the do
partment in which he is to be empIov-
ed. The Board of Education is ex-
tremely careful to keep its corps of
teachers up to the highest point of
efficiency.
Recognizing that a system of public
SCHOOLS is to furnish educational
training for the masses, and not for
privileged class, those having the di-
IFclloh OF public education in Ameri-
Gus have endeavored to furnish the
boys and girls of the city just such an
education as they need. While the
pupils are prepared to enter the high-
er classes at the University and other
colleges in Georgia, yet the main ef-
fort is put forth to properly train tina,
larger number of boys and girls who
will never enter college. So carefully

has the course of study been arranged
that boy or girl passing through the
schools from the primary grades TO
the graduating class of the High
School will have better education
than the average college graduate Of
twenty years ago, and just such an
education as will fit him to stand
shoulder to shoulder with his fellows
and meet successfully the problems OF
life.
The city has always been liberal in
appropriating funds for the support of
the schools. The schools cost about
$4,000 each year for their mainten-
ance; $4,000 of this amount comes
from the city and the remainder from
the state fund. The public school
training is absolutely free to each
pupil living within the limits of the
city, while reasonable tuition is
charged those living in Sumter county.
Already Americas ranks among the
first cities in Georgia in the educa-
tional advantages offered her children,
but not content with this, the school
authorities, by continual investigation
and study, are seeking to still further
add to them, so that those who come
to make their homes here, may feel
satisfied that no other city in the state
can offer better training for their
children.

The Party's Great Opportunity

In the ante-bellum period the dem ocratic party was nearly always vic- torious. In fact, from Jefferson down to Lincoln the democrats were defeat ed only twice. Harrison was elected as a whig in 1s4o and Taylor as a whig in 1s4s, but in the other cam paigns victory perched easily on demo- cratic banners.
 Since the war Grover Cleveland was the one democrat inaugurated Presi- dent. The prejudice that existed in the north against the south and the south's democracy in the days of sec tional bitterness was readily accounted for, of course. But after Tilden's time the national democratic party was sym bolized by the donkey. Lack of har- mony and bad moves on the political chess board have caused the party's defeat time and again. During Cleve- lands second administration the de- mocracy became seriously split, and since Bryan's defeat in 1896 there had been no prospect of winning until now.
 Will tho democrats act this year with wisdom and patriotism as did the dem ocrats of by gone days, or will they throw away their chances by indulg ing in factional or personal clashes? Many partisans of Roosevelt who united in urging the ex-President to announce himself a candidate for the

New York and Birmingham

It semes that New York's police force' like Blrminghams S. is too small. There is an agitation in Gotham for an increase. and some of the criticisms touching the inadequacy of the police force read as if they might have been applied to condi- tions here.
 In the police department of New forK city, sometimes called. although incor- rectly, Greater New York, there are now about $500 patrolmen and according to an editorial in the New York Sun at least 1000 more patrolmen are needed Tor the proper ordinary protection of the com munity." There is relatively as much complaint in New York about the lack of police protection in residence sections as there is in this city. The several bor- oughs comprising the city Of New York cover an area only six and third times greater than Birmingham's area But New York's population in 1910 was about S6 times as great as was this city's, while it's army of patrolmen is 72 times greater than the number Of patromen on Birmingham's police force; and yet Anerca's great metropolis is not ade- quately policed, according to newspaper accounts.
 We sometimes hear jokes about Bir- rnirgham's unimproved acres-groves and truck patches inside of the city limits. But the city of New York contains larger bodies of acreage property than Birming- ham Mayor Gaynor lives on 6Q acre farm on Staten Island, which is in New York city, and he cultivates farm crops. George W.APerkins lives on 15 acre es- tate up near Yonkers, and in that neigh borhood are scores of 10 acre estates. E. Steiner. formerly of Birmingham. but

Grover Cleveland

That was fine tribute which President Taft paid Grover Cleveland on the oc- casion of the public meeting held in New York to honor the memory of the la mented statesman. Among those who made addresses were Hillary H. Herbert of Alabama, former Secretary of the Navy, and Representative Thomas W.. Hardwick of Georgia. The latter said that he wished to express on behalf or the democracy of the south and of the people of the south ''the deep respect and esteem we held for Mr. Cleveland in life. the sorrow we had for his death and the pride with which we cherished his memory" Oscar W. Underwood sent a letter in which he paid a fitting tribute. It was a most impressive meeting, and those of us who knew and admired MT. Cleveland when he was President recall with engagement and regret the lack Of appreciation on the part of many of the southern leaders of the only democrat oc- cupying the White House since the war. Some of our prominent southern men, in opposing his. nomination in 1892, expressed themselves with considerable bitterness. Mr. Cleveland was one of the strongest and most patriotic men this country has produced But had he done nothing greater than recognize the south and filled hlgn oHlces With soutIlein lieh WHo hdu distinguished themselves on the field of battle in defense of the Confederacy, he would have rendered an irenic service to the country as well as to this section never to be forgotten. It was splendidly patriotic, too. Samuel J. Tilden was great statesman and great democrat,
 but suppose he had taken his seat as
 President, would he have recognized the south as heartily as MT. Cleveland did in
 1885 when he first entered the White
 House? Tilden was a timid man, and the
 chances are that he would have rendered

W. H. McAmis of 1720h First ave- nue, leading contractor of this city. has this to say of "Tona Vita the new tonic that is making such a rec ord in Birmingham at present: T have been in a miserable condition of health for some time. I never did know exactly what was the matter with me. I got no enjoyment from anything and could not eat or sleep or properly attend to my affairs.
 T have had several attacks of acute Indigestion, my liver was in a bad shape and I was usually constipated. would feel as tired in the morning as when went to bed and stayed that way all day. My nerves were In a frightful state and the least little thing would upset me and make me very nervous. My appetite was very poor and when I did eat heartily I would be troubled with indigestion.
 "A short time ago I got some 'Tona Vita after talking with one of the representatives. The first thing thsS noticed I began to sleep better and did not toss all night as formerly Then my appetite began to improTe and my food did not distress me. I have grown steadily stronger each day and now I hardly seem like ths' same per- son.
 Before using this toric I had tried . number of different rkinds of reme- dies. but nothing compared with this. It has made me intU a well man when l had about lost hope"
 The representatives who are intro ducing the new /tonic in Birmingham say that sever9h thousand people are now taking th9 tonic in this city.
 We are selling Tona- Vita to great many people here" said one of the representatives yesterday. but when yoH think that this city has at least 2o,100 debilltated, half sick peo- pie whoj would be immensely benefited by the tonic 1t does not seem as if we are Accomplishing as much, as we should. However, the sale is growing larger very fast as people who are taking tonic tell their friends what 1t Has done, and this does more than any fhng else to make people realize what "a really wonderful tonic Tona Vita is.
 We will continue to meet all call CTS at the Collier Drug company's store, 109-111 North goth street. from 9 a. m. to p. m. as long as we re- main in Birmingham. If the tonic does not do all we claim for it the purchase price is refunded.

w wooden house of pleasing archl- tecturaI design is made all the more at trsctive by fresh coats of paint every year or two. But some houses of preten- tious appearance hereabouts go unpaintod for five years or more. It is like per son wearing old clothse year in and year out. The owner of wooden house had better economize or retrench in almost any other direction than in his paint blll.
 While on this subject it may be well to remark that the south is far behind the north In the matter of paint. Not only in some southern cities do we find whole blocks of unpainted cottages, but l nave seen Alabama villages on railroad trunk lines in which not a. single house had ever felt a paint brush. North of the ono river the small villages look bright ana prosperous with their freshly and taste fully painted homes.
 If were Czar or ruler l would issue an edict making it a penalty for anyone to erect a wooden structure and let It go without paint. Few things are so un- slightly as house in need of paint, and as for dilapldated railroad towns, there is no excuse for them whatever.
