Spring has come!
True, the gimlet-eyed person who

right, because

PUBLIC SCHOOL REFORM
SURVEYS To Be PUSHEDBY
CITY AND STATE OFFICIALS

The outcome of two surveys to be
made of the public schools of Atlanta
and sweeping reforms proposed IN the
system of instruction were anXiously
awaited by city officials Wednesday.
The City Council fathers will make
one of the inquiries, while the State
Superintendent of Schools. at the
urging of the School Board, will make
the other.
The reforms were proposed in the
form of three separate resolutions by
Commissioner R. j. Quinn at q spe-
cial meeting of the Board of Educd-
ton.
Acted on Tuesday
Although the question of a survey
was apparently passed upon at the
last meeting. the board devoted more
than an hour to its discussion Tues
day. Finally, however, Secretary
Landrum was instructed to inform
State Superintendent Britain that il
was the desire of the city that one of
the State supervisors make the in
vestigation" Immediately
During the discussion a point was
raised by Commissioner Dan Green
that if a survey was made it should
be directed by the board. He argued
that it was the duty of each member
TO make personal survey, and con-
tended that Mayor Woodward should
appoint an expert to conduct an in
yestigation, even if he had to so out
side the city or State for one.
Mayor Gives Views.
Commi sisoner Quinn expressed
himself in favor Of Commissioner
Green's contention, but claimed the
board Shoul1 not consider the State
Board as being antagonistic
What we want now is infOrma-
ton" he said. This board should
engage someone to ferret out The
facts, not one to make recommenda-
lions about any particular school

Further Inquiry of
Trade Discrimination
At Fort Is Ordered

A committee. composed of members
of the Wholesale trade committee of the
Chamber of Commerce. will be appointed
Wednesday or Thursday by Chairman
Fort 10 further investigate alleged dis
ordinations against Atlanta merchants
in the bulk trade from Fort McPher-
son. At a meeting Of the whole trade
committee Tuesday it was brought out
that Atlanta merchants have TO send
their samples to New York in order to
compete for the trade of the local post.
The Atlanta post it is understood, is
part of the Second Brigade, directly I'M
der the command of the First Division,
which has headquarters on Governors
Island. New York. The division quar-
termaster has charge OF all purchasing
Of bulk supplies for Fort Mcpherson
and in consequence the orders are
placed with merchants in the East,
while only perishable goods are bought
here.

olution that the State superintendent
make an immediate investigation, an
other resolution by Commissions.
Terrell was adopted asking The
Chamber of Commerce to furnish the
board with a copy of the survey re-
ports on hand.
Redistricting Is Urged.
The Commissioner urged that here
after the board refuse to sanction a
survey unless it was agreed that the
board receive the report and data.
Most conspicuous among the reforms
urged by Commissioner Quinn is one
contained in a resolution requiring
complete redistricting of Atlanta's
public school system-mentioning N
particular those schools which We're
built with part of the 100000 bond
issue, and that particular attention Le
paid to oVerCroWding
Another reform provides for making
the maximum number Of pupils for
each grade 40 instead of 60 and 20.
The resolution requires the minimum
to be 30.
Detach Normal School.
The third resolution urged that 'ha
Normal School be detached from the
Girls High School making it part
of the grammar schools.

for Atlanta to finish getting ready
for them Nucn remains to be done.
"A multitude of details is in charge
of the Shrine committees. Other, de-
tails are up to Atlanta.
"One of the things Atlanta must do
for us is this: She must open her
best homes to the visitors.
Another thing she should do is
this: She should clean up every
where shine up. wash up, paint up.
We want to make the best impress
sion possible.
Local Shriners are doing these
things already. Their homes will en-
terrain two or three thousand invited

no better service for Atlanta than TO

In this, too, the city is co-operat-

THIN FOLKS MADE PLUMP
Samose Ideal Flesh Builder, Says ia
cobs' Pharmacy.

Thin people are simply suffering
from want of nourishment!
If you are thin, it is because the
food YOU eat is not assimilated and
passes through the system without
building up the flesh and tissue as it
should.
You can readily get plump and rosy
by using Samose, tissue forming
food which when taken with the
meals Immediately becomes a flesh
building and life-giving element in
the blood.
Samose builds up the system. puts
flesh on the bones, brings back the
glow of health to the pallid cheek and
removes the tired and languid feeling
which is the result of exhaustion and
low vitality.
Jacobs Pharmacy are introducing
Samose TO their customers and rec
ommend it highly. They give the best
proof of their belief that Samose will
do all that is claimed for it by Of
fering to refund the money if it fails
to increase the weight and restore
good health.-Advt.

WHY MEN DO NOT
ATTEND CHURCH
Various Reasons Are Advanced i'm
Hundred Letters Received by
Rev. j. l.. Gardiner.

From the replies 10 more than 100
letters which he sent out. Rev. James
Lane Gardiner at a meeting Of the
Mems Brotherhood Of ST. Paul's NJ. E
church, read reasons given why more
men do not attend church. The let
tiers as a whole bore special emphasis
upon no more than six reasons that
were within reason, according to the
pastor In part he said: Some peO-
pie stay away from church services
because they do not understand the
underlying principles of the services.
They seldom hear the preachers and
the little knowledge they possess OF
church affairs comes through hearsay
only.
I'm these letters there were nu-
merOus references to the fact that
business men on Saturday nights
and Sundays are too occupied with
their business. They allowed their
work to interfere with their worship
Some said that some of the preaching
today did greaL violence TO reason and
Intelligence Still another reason was
the alleged hypocrisy to be found
among members of the church. They
accused members of the church Of
lacking in the spirit of Christ to such
a degree that they were incapable of
drawing outsiders into the church.
Some letters said that much of the
preaching today ran into scientific
historical and political channels in
stead of teaching the lessons in the
Bible
The last reason. but the one to be
most considered was the fact that
much Indifference toward church af
fairs was to be found among those
who are not members Of any church.
They are cold toward any religious
topic"
Discussion of the letters was held
after the pastors talk and it was men
toned by several present that the last
reason was the only real reason given
that the rest were merely excuses.
Max Miranda favored with several Sc
lections on the plano. and after the
business session, refreshments were
served. There were about so present.
