Dear Sir: Please announce in your paper
that there are vacancies for sruuenrs at
the Georgia Normal College at Milledgeyille, Ga.
The doors of the college must be closed TO future
applicants this fall because of lack of more room
1 enclose circular letter which explains itself.
The college has already had to refuse hum
dreds of applications in all parts of the state,
and this public announcement is made to save
unnecessary correspondence and disappointment,
The college will open September IA.
Thanking you for giving this matter publici-
ty in your county, am
Very truly yours,
M. M. PARKS.
President Parks is one of the best of edu-
Gators; his school is a model.
The State founded it for the purpose Of
helping girls, over IA years Of age, to equip
themselves for practical life.
Not half the applicants this year could be
received; the capacity of the college had
been reached.
To hundreds of Georgia girls, President
Parks had to write refusals which carried
sadness to many young soul, tears to many
bright eyes.
Suppose that the churches should turn into
our Georgia schools and colleges the money
they are sending to educate foreign children

this particular and serious public
health problem, is not receiving the
consideration 1t demands and in ad-
dition to the revision of our building
code-which we have before urged up
on council-prompt action should be
taken to draft housing CODE in
keeping with our demands. While we
do not have the tenement house prob
lens of larger cities to deal with, our
investigations disclose conditions
equally bad and as the result of the
Capitol Park extension and the sub
way operations in the Third ward, the
tenants from these affected districts
are crowding into already badly con-
gested districts and to-day we are
confronted with housing problems the
reality and Importance of which are
beyond question These conditions are
not at all confined to a certain dis
trict and under such conditions no
wonder tuberculosis fiourishes. We
submit for example, comparative sta
tistics from the Seventh ward, which
for several years shows not only the
greatest number of cases but the
greatest annual increase, all of which
no doubt is largely attributable to bad
housing"

the opinion among Senator'S and Rep
resentatives generally, but in spite OF
it ALL signs indicate that the new
Congress. elected last November, will
be called together shortly after the
end of the present Congress on March
4. After discussing the situation, the
Democratic leaders began making
their plans for an extra session.
The apparent pressing necessity Tor
calling the new Congress together
arises from the insistence of the Ad-
ministration that the pending ship
purchase bill shall be enacted into law
without delay. This bill has been
passed by the House and is now before
the Senate, where determined fill
buster is in progress.

Paris, City of Light,
Is Shrouded in Gloom
.Seeeial to The Telegraph

Paris, Jan. 20.-Last night Paris
definitely abandoned its title of THE
City of Light" and assumed shroud
of mourning. According to police reg
ulations, emphasized by official visits
to all business houses, no unshuttered
or uncurtained windows are allowed
to give light, no cafes or shops may
brighten the sidewalk with gas or
electric radiance. Even windows over
looking courtyards must be shaded
while the wet boulevard paVements
reflect but family a few occasional
lamps.
The public takes the innovation
calmly Since the beginning of the
war Paris has been rather contemptu-
Gus OF Zeppelins. Consequently no one
seems alarmed by the latest meas
ures, which are considered simply pre-
cautionary, uninspired by definite off,
cial knowledge regarding contem plat
ed attacks.
