Fears For Other Child.
What has happened to my daughter
who graduated this year may happen to
Esther, my younger daughter, who will
be in the third grade this fall, or it may
happen to the daughters of any one OF
my neighbors. None OF them can real
ize 1t as l can, for it has been forced
upon me.
Now. what l want to ask the physi-
clans of Atlanta to do is to go before
the public in a body and tell them just
exactly what such deplorable conditions
in the Girls High school are going to
lead to; tell the public something that
every father and mother ought to know
already. of the physical makeup OF
girls of high school age; tell them the
certain result of weakening them if
they are forced to stay all day in rooms
where they can not keep warm"
President Daley of the school board
declared that the sanitary condition of
the school was good, but that the poor
heating system and the general con-
struction of the building endangered
the lives of the young women by bad
colds, pneumonia and similar diseases.
Il am very sorry to learn of the
death of the young woman" he said
without regard to the merit OF the
fathers charge, it dramatically calls
the councils attention to a need that
has been neglected"
Board Asked For Heating Plant.
Mr.. Daley told how the board of edu-
cation had requested the council for
funds for new heating system as an
Immediate necessity, and urged an en-
tirely new Girls High school building
Funds have not been provided for
either. He said he denounced the con-
dition of the school at the graduation
exercises.
An investigating committee from the
board found that there are fourteen
separate heating systems and four
stoves in the building" he said. Last
year 1t was necessary to dismiss school
on number of days on account Of
inadequate heat. The whole building
made up Of several separate buildings
Is an Old trap and should be torn
down"
No appropriation has been made for
new heating system, and similar con-
ditions will obtain next year unless
something is done soon.
Alderman Warren said that there
was no doubt that the condition of the
building is very bad. He recalled a
statement made by Miss Nettie Sar-
gent, former principal that one of the
young women contracted pneumonia
while attending school there last win
ter.
But ! don't think there was the
slightest chance for any one to contract
typhoid fever as a result Of conditions
at the school," he said. "A person in
the finest physical condition would have
hard fight with malignant typhoid
fever"

ments. All boys and girls under four
teen years of age get their books from
the latter department.
Fiction, of course, is the fayorite
reading matter among the children.
Last year they took 1912 volumes out
Of the library. The boys took the sto-
ries Of adventure; the girls, those of
romance. Folklore tales come next,
but only 800 volumes were in use dur
Ing that time. Children at the, same
time took out 142 history books.
We encourage the children to read
fiction said Miss Katherine Wooten,
the librarian. You see, we only put
the very best stories and tales for chill
dren in the library. The old fashioned
thrillers have been discarded.
we can choose what the children
shall read and we are just as careful
about what is placed on the shelves al
we can be; unfortunately things are
not that way in the adult division and
when the public demands new novel,
if it's at all decent, we have to put 1t in
circulation.
Library Used More.
Nowadays so many educational
ideas are brought into the childish
mind in the form OF fiction that every
child ought to be encouraged to read
fiction, when 1t can be carefully chosen
for him.
What do the little tots read. the
really tiny ones, who can just spell out
few lines? Oh, they read stories
about trains and chickens they will
call for something about t'ains and
chit'ns when they first come in here,
and every time after that 1t keeps US
busy hunting chidren's stories of their
two favorites"
Children are using the Carnegie IL
brary twice as much today az they

into court the boy said there had
been two other Yaquis at the tent
during the afternoon, but that he
did not know whether they took any
thing or not. His statement as to
the Yaqui visitors was corrobOrated
by the testimony of a young man
who was working a short distance
away. While satisfied that the boy
knew OF tne tnell, il ne WIS ilol tiIt
