DISTRICT TO EDUCATE
TUBERCULOUS CHILDREN
City Fathers Want Special Open-Ar
Schools for Those Excluded
from System.
ASK IMMEDIATE APPROPRIATION

The urgency OF the need of providing a
special open-air school for the tubercu-
lous children of the District viii be
brought to the attention OF Congress by
the Commissioners in special cornmuni-
cation and request for an immediate
appropriation. In the conviction that
something should be done right away for
the accommodation OF the children ex-
clUded from the schools by their recent
ruling. the District heads decided to take
the matter OF providing them with a
separate building directly up with Con-
gress rather than to delay action by in
cluding such appropriation in their annual
estimates.
DIR. William C. Woodward, Health Off
Ger: Snowden Ashford. municipal archi-
tect, and DR.. William NJ. Davidson, sJI-
perintendent of schools. are now max
ing an investigation to determine the
number of tuberculous patients in the
schools and the character and extent of
the facilities that should be provided
for them 1t is not believed that 1t will
be necessary to ask for a larger amount
than $500.
The determination is, it is understood.
10 make use OF buildings now owned by
the District In casa this is possible,
the money appropriated would only be
needed in remodeling and providing spe-
cial teachers for the small sufferers ex-
cluded under the recent amendment OF
the health regulations.

The kimono in question was OF very dark

stew that has been cooked violently can

hard, the fat swims on top and the deli

best to brown the meat slightly first

their mobiles.

SUBPOENA DENIED
BY MRS. RAJ TER.
Wife of Hose Agent Says He Is
Not DOdging Service in
Investigation.

Mrs. J. J. Rafter. 80 Dargan place,
wife Of the local manager Of the Fabric
Fire Hose Company to-day denied that
her husband had been served with
subpoena to appear before the council
investigating committee on the fire de-
partment probe or that he had vanished
to avoid testifying. The only service
that has been made on Mr.. Rafter, she
declared, was more than two weeks
ago, when he appeared at the first
hearing Of the committee.
Statements made by City Marshal
Fuller that he made personal service on
Mr.. Rafter at his home last Sunday at
a. m. are untrue" Mrs. Rafter said.
The facts are these: At 1915 o'clock
on Sunday morning, March 16, M.
Fuller came to our home. Mr. Demp-
sey who also lives here, opened the
door. ! told Mr.. Fuller my husband
vas not here, and he entered the house.
Mr.. Rafter was at home at the time,
though l said he wasn't, but he didn't
want to be served with the subpoena be-
cause Of three important business en-
gagements ne had outside Atlanta.
After | told Mr. Fuller my husband
was not at home. he tried to serve the
subpoena on me, and | wouldn't accept
it. He then placed the papers on
mantel in the living room and left the
house. Mr.. Rafter was in the city all
day Monday and Tuesday. Why didn't
Mr.. Fuller serve him with the papers
then? Mr.. Rafter and myself were at
the Piedmont Hotel for more than half
an hour after o'clock Tuesday night,
March IS, and on that same night he
left to fulfill his business engagements.
He has never been in Cairo III. The
last time ] heard from Mr. Rafter, on
last Monday, he was in Miami. Fla. He
may be home within two days or he
may not come in until next Monday or
Tuesday.
MY husband has nothing to tell the
investigating committee. and he has
not the time to aid any one in Atlanta
in the settlement of their petty fac
tional disputes. He appeared before the
committee when he was subpenaed two
weeks ago and no papers have ever
been served on him since"
