The matter of regularity in attend
ance is just as important as that oil
punctuality. Our course of study is
such that each days lessons are plan
ned and work should be followed con
secutively. If child misses a half
! day week or even half day a
month, he has missed more in the
class room than he can ever make up
by hours of outside work. What he
misses one day he can never make up
| the next, and his interest has gone.
He has failed miserably to get what
the other children have procured from
the lesson, and what the teacher has
tried to give.
Our state law demands that child
between the ages of s and Is should
be in school every day of the schools
term and yet parents will keep chill
dren one a half day here or a day
there to help them, when they know
it is absolutely unlawful to do 50, Ex-
cept in case OF poverty where his help
is needed, no person has a right to
keep a child from school, unless ill.,
You are practically paying s1.00 an
hour from your child's education
how can he better earn a $1.00 than
by attending school? If you would
only consider that as an investm emit,
and be anxious that your child gets
all he can out of his $1.0O and is using
this investment of yours-and his, to
the very best Of his ability, and see
to it that he doesn't lose one cent of
it, you will be doing him the greatest
service you will ever be able to make
him. Besides the perfect attendance
certificates which each child may
earn, We have in our schools. for each
building, beautiful silk flag which
was presented to us bp the Woman's
Relief Corps. This flag is given each
week to the room having the highest
average in attendance. The children
work hard for this honor, because
they do appreciate it as an honor and
are proud when they earn it.
Invariably it is the same one or two
children, who by being tardy min
ute or two minutes as the case may
be, or by an absence, deprive the
faithful ones time and time again
from earning that which they, months
at time earn. Is it fair that a whole
room of energetic, ambitious children
should have their records spoiled, and
be deprived of honors by one or two
careless ones?
I have seen perfect records until
Friday noon, when all the efforts of
the children for that week would be
spoiled by minutes hardness or a
half day absence. Such an act seems
very selfish in a child when he knows
that the interest of the whole room
has been toward that perfection, and
when very little effort on his part
would have earned it for them.
The matter of excuses has been en-
forced; first because the teacher
must know from the parent the reason
for any irregularity, and unless it is
a lawful one, and a reasonable one,
the parent has no right to write it,
nor the teacher to accept it. The 9th.
er just as important reason, is that by
writing these excuses the parent may
sec and realize just how often he is
called upon to do it, and will stop to
think rs it always necessary"

GEORGIA WOMAN
SUFFRAGE BODY
FACES ROW
Split in Atlanta League, Whose
Members Are Barred, Will Be .
Brought Before Convention.

Little hope was seen Monday for a
settlement of the strife in the Geor-
gia Woman Suffrage Association until
the convention here July 9 and 10.
Within their ranks disagreements
nave arisen which are not so easily
disposed Of One side is led by Mrs.
NJ. l.. McLendon, president of the At
lanta Civic League and the Georgia
Woman Suffrage Association, and the
other by Mrs. F. S. Whiteside, whom
number have urged for official
recognition.
Parade Cause of Trouble.
The trouble began early this year
When advocates of woman suffrage
were anticipating the parade in
Washington. Mrs. McLendon was
president of the Atlanta Civic League
and Mrs. Amelia 3. Woodall was sec
rotary. The officers of the orxanfza-
ton were to be the representatives in
Washington, but II was time for re-
election.
The election was postponed several
times, until Mrs. McLendon and Mrs.
Woodall automatically became the Of
ncial representatives. On their return
they were met by the charge from
Mrs. Whiteside that they had nanip-
ulated postponements that just such
things might result.
New League 10 Formed.
And the story is that Mrs. Ida B.
Mcclellan. in speech, precipftated
the actual split
This situation, some time ago, re-
suited in Mrs. MCLendon and her
supporters in the Atlanta Civic
League forming the Atlanta Equal
Suffrage League.
Now, on the eve of the meeting of
the Georgia Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation, the members Of the Atlanta
Civic League have been denied adj
mission on the grounds that they
have not paid up their dues
Efforts to bring about an anicable
adjustment have failed. 1t is asserted
that rival organization to the Geor-
gia Woman Suffrage Association may
be formed

I prediction. the Tippins bill. so called

/ that the prohibit!onists OF Georgia
generally look upon this measure az

this time, and a sort Of let we'll

be spreading among Temperance ad-
vOcates.
The truth Of the matter is, prohi-
bitionists seem fairly well satisfied
with the status of things in Georgia,
and agitation in the present Legisla-
ture-or, anyway. in the present ses-
sion--seems unlikely.
The Chattanooga News recently
stated, in an editorial praislng At
lantR. that Georgia has the best en-
forced prohibition laws Of any prohi-
bition State in the nation, and far
better than Tennessee. This seems to
be agreed TO all around, and the fact
that the Tippins bill has not been re-
intr oduced, notwithstanding he con
fident predictions that IL would be-

bitionists In Georgia incline TO agree

Rumor That Louisville & Nash

est in Fate of w. "a.

The coming sale Of the Atlanta,
under foreclosure proceedings. and
the rumor that the Louisville and
Nashville has its eyes upon il, has
started something OF a panic among
Georgia legislators. particularly as
the present Legislature likely will
consider seriously the problem Of the
Western and Atlantic's release In
1919.
There are two parties in the pres
ent Legislature with respect to the
Western and Atlantic Railway. One
favors the release Of the States
road as 1t now stands. the other the
extension Of the road 70 the Atlantic
seaboard.
II the L. g. N. Eobbles the A., B.
& A, II Is held by some that II
thereby will have strategic advantage
over the State road in the matter OF
extension to the sea Indeed, II the
L. & n. gets the A. r. 3 A, II is
pr iicted that the railroad map Of
Georgia likely will be pretty well
changed within a short time
There are those In the General As
sembly who are advocating the pur-
chase OF the A. B. & A. by the State
thus extending the W. & A. 10 the
sea. Others hold that the State should
keep its hands of the A.. p. & A. rosd
and conhne itself TO such railroad
property as Il now possesses, with it,
fine terminal facilities In Atlanta and
Chattanooga.
