Pupils Work Retarded.

IF ever a new school building was a
necessity in the city of Atlanta, that
need is right here at Davis street. said
Miss Riordan today. Under the pres
ent deplorable conditions, the work of
the school is seriously hampered, and
the children can not obtain their best
development.
I'VE have an ideal location here for a
school-tt is away from car line, Is
quiet, and on a hill where we get plenty
of fresh air. Then, too, we have the
finest playground of any school in the
city-there's no doubt of that If we
only had a new and modern building,
suitable for the demands made on it, we
would have a model school. If the city
generally knew of the hardships under
which this army of children is laboring
for an education, believe every section
would rise with us and plead for new
school,"

the disease. The death struggles OF
the animal, while pathetic. may be the

DR.. Saunders first remarked that in
fantile paralysis. which doctors call
poliomyelitis. is prevalent only in the
insect season and was rarely seen In
this latitude in the winter months. Sew
eral months ago he became impressed
with the idea that the disease known
as timber neck in chickens was respon-

have demonstrated that all fowls are
subject to the disease. as we'll as dogs,
hogs and monkeys. but cats and rab-
