State to Pay School
Teachers February |.

Atlanta, Ga.-The state will be
in position to pay the 65 per cent
of last years salaries still due
the school teachers of Georgia,
about February /. This per cert
amounts to approximately. $780,
900 and will be distributed among
Is. 900 teachers. The entire ap-
preparation for 1912 was 81, 5OO,-
600. of which about 35 per cent
only has been paid. Clerk j. A.
Northcutt, of the state depart
ment of education, is now COM
piling the statement which will
be submitted to the executive dc
partmenU order to have warrants
drawn upon the treasury for the
money. 1t is believed that, owing
to the constitutional amendments
which requires corporations to
pay their taxes by September l
each year, it will not again be
necessary to have the teachers
wait until the year following
their work to receive their pay.

void and cannot be enforced
even in the hands of an limo

on a promissory note for $500. 90,
The note was payable to Mitchell
and Paulk. who endorsed it plain
t if for value before due.
In an amendment to his original
plea, Mr.. Henderson set up THAT
the note sued ~ on is void and
that plaintiff cannot recover there
on for the reason said note was
given for immoral and illegal con-

enter into the purchase of the
