The centenary of David Liv-

with appropriate ceremonies at
one of the churches Sunday,
March 10th. David Livingstone
was one of the greatest men who
ever lived. He was a scholar,
physician, missionary, traveller,
explorer, geographer, botanist, all
in one. He introduced the Dark
Continent to the world. He
placed Africa in a position of
impregnable prominence from
which it can never be dislodged.
Every boy should read the life of
such a man. There is more ro-
nance in such a volume than any
work of fiction; more heroism
than in the life of half a dozen
average heroes. Not to know
Livingstone is to miss one of the
greatest pleasures in life. Every
man who knows anything of him
rejoices to know that such men
have lived, that they can be pro-
duced. He was the honored
guest of the nobility of England,

WAR ON BETWEEN
ATLANTA BARRIERS

Atlanta, Sept 26.-There's BARRIERS
war on in Atlanta No blood is being
shed, except that of an occasional un-
lucky patron, and razors are still being
used only as implements of trade and
not as weapons, but there's a war on
just the same.
The Atlanta local of the BARRIERS I'M
ion is making a fight to close the open
shops in clubs and hotels on Sunday.
and the men who work in the open
shops are fighting to keep them open.
The union declares it is not fighting the
Sunday shops because they are oper-
ated by non-union men, but simply be-
cause it is against the law to operate
any kind of barber shop in Georgia on
Sunday, and that they ask the enforce
ment of the Sunday law indiscrimin-
ately against union an non-union men
alike.
The non-union men insist however,
that this is simply another attack on
them.

Mathewson, I'VE are taxed to our ut

dents who have made application for
admittance to the school, From pres
ent indications we are led to believe
that the total enrolment this year will
reach 700, which will be the largest
student body ever registered at the
school in its history.
Everything is running smoothly
and all of the faculty agree, in COM
on the progress made thus far
that the school will enjoy the most
term this year of any pc
riod since its foundation
The registration for admission to the /
night school at Georgia Tech closed
last night with an enrolment of more
than $50. This night course is offered
by the state of Georgia through Tech,
