COMMITS STATE q
TO EDUCATION
COMPULSORY EDUCATION BILL rs
PASSED IN HOUSE AND
SENATE.

ATLANTA. July 29.-What is con-
sidered at least a good beginning to-
ward compulsory education in Geor-
gia is made by the bills which have
passed the senate and the house.
Although they are not the bills the
house and senate would prefer to
pass, they commit the state to the
principle of compulsory education,
which in itself is a great step for
ward; and the law may be strengthen
ed from time to time as public senti-
ment grows in favor and conditions
warrant requirements more strict.
The sentiment of the house, which
ingly demonstrated yesterday when
Representative Rich, of Miller. moved
to table the compulsory education bill
and all amendments and substitutes.
His motion got his vote and two or
three others. and the balance of the
members voted against it with thun-
derous chorus of Mays"
1t was plain that the house, after
years Cf agitation in the newspapers
and otherwise, has :i;ade up its mind
that Georgia must make this step
toward a higher standard of public
And while the bill which
passed the house, as said above, is
not nearly so good bill as many of
the members would prefer to have
passed, it is a compromise with the
ultra conservative agricultural repre-
who have held back on ac-
count of the need Of boys and girls
who work in the field.
The bill requires that all children
between the ages or eight and four
teen years shall be sent to school at
least four months in the year begin
ming not later than July list.

Fatigue Injuries the voice. Excessive

Of the voice chronic pharyngitis de-
velops. Every one knows the symp-
toms Of oyeruse of the voice. The voice
is husky, and its use is followed by dis
traSs. There is an increase in secre-
ton and a constant desire to clear the
throat, and there are disagreeable sen
sations, as fullness, tickling and the
like. After q long day Of shopping.

work, it is quite common to be trou-
bIed by hoarSeneSs, which does not in

Of parts which produce the voice
The muscular system all over the
body IS tired, relaxed The throat, be
ing 4 muscular structure, shares in this
fatigue, ami it should never be used for
any particular purpose like singing or
reciting, until the whole body is rested
II one has arranged to use the voice at
the close Of the day or at any other
time, it should not be when suffering

Public speakers and singers take care
Of their voices and never willingly use
them long enough at a time to weaken
them. Singing only one song extra
may hurt the voice enough to impair
its clearness, and frequent OVERRIDING
may result in a permanent weakness
Rest before using the voice and taking
care not TO use it too long when sing
ing or speaking saves the voice and
keeps it clear and sweet and gives it
carrying power.

The organizing of this paper is
step in the right direction. The

to develop our next years Meletean

to the publishing Of a larger school

so hard to secure in the past.

LIGHT and the Blind.

Light has use, even if men cannot or
will not see it. Barring Gould tells of
an institution for the blind that was
built in England without windows
why" argued the committee, should
we provide windows for those that
cannot see oCt Of them?" SO scientific
ventilation and heating were provided
but the walls were left unpierced by
any pane of glass.
But soon the poor inmates grew pale
and a great languor fell upon them.
They were restless and dissatisfied
They fell sick. and one or two died.
Then it was that the committee decid
ed to open windows in the walls. In
came the healing light, and the human
plants responded to it at once in re-
vived spirits. ruddy cheeks and re-
stored health. Light is good. the light
of the world is good, even for those
who shut their eyes.-Christian Her

ON GETTING STUNG.
Not Socially Nor Financially, but the
Real Hornet Thing.

Real Hornet Thing.
Ever get stung? Or, rather, who
hasn't, says the North Carolina state
board Of health-"both with bees and
otherwise. Hurts like the mischief,
doesn't it-both getting stung by bees
and getting stung otherwise? For Ell
Their kind Of getting stung prevention is
better than cure, and discretion is the
hest part Of yalOr.
Tact, diplomacy and good judgment
will ward off many instances Of get
ting stung i'll the social world as well
as in the insect world We offer no
panacea or remedy for the former, but
for the latter, seriously speaking, much
can be done.
The first impulse in the case Of All
insect sting is to strike the offending
insect, and in doing 50 in most cases
we usually tear the insect away from
its sting, leaving the sting in the flesh
1t IS the irritating poison on the
sting that hurts 50 badly and causes
such swelling. 80 the very first thing
to do is to remove the sting it left in
the flesh Use i knife point or needle
for this purpose. Then, don't scratch
or rub the sting That only makes
bad matters worse. Apply a few drops
Of weak ammonia o. spirits Of camphor
or ordinary tincture Of iodine as quick
ly as possible.
The poison from hornet stings is
soluble in alcohol, and therefore if the
spot be gently bathed or washed in al
cohol some relief is obtained.
Finally, il ammonia, camphor, iodine
or alcohol is not available, gently rub
bling piece Of wet soap over the sting
helps the situation out somewhat. Al
ways remember, however, that the
most important first aid is to remove
the offending sting and that prevention
IS better than cure.

With the coming of spring anoth-
er branch of Athletics is coming to
the front. 1t is shown that more
interest is taken in track this year
than has been shown in any other
year, by the large number of men
who responded TO the call which
was made last week. Mr. Jacobsen
has been chosen by the Athletic
| Council totake charge of this work.
With the able coaching of Mr.. ia

promising material, good track
team should be developed during
the coming season. A meet has
been arranged with Stout besides
the regular lnter-normal meet. 1t is
very likely that another meet will
also be scheduled with some high
school during the first part of the
season.
Spring football practice has be-
gun. A large number Of men are
out. With this promising material,
besides those that will eventually
come from high schools next year,
another championship football team
should be developed next Fall. The
practice lasts for four weeks and
should greatly help in developing
material for next year.

HEARING BEFORE COMMISSIONER
Further Compensation Denied Greenevlle Man-Farm EN-
ploye Gets Sc Week for Fifteen Weeks - Eight
Agreements Signed

Two hearings occupied the attention
Of Compensation Commissioner James
]. Donohue on Monday at his office
in the Central building. The first
hearing was held at IL o'clock in the
morning. Alec Zinzich of No. IL
Third street was the injured employe
seeking further compensation. He
was injured on June 18th, 1915, while
in the employ of the United States
Finishing company.
There was a question as to whether
or not the employe was entitled to
further compensation and according
to the testimony presented it was
found that the employe was able to
earn as much as before his in
jury which was a badly lacerated left
wrist, and that any difference in the
amount of his wages at this time was
caused by lack of work rather than
any disability due to the original in
jury. Further compensation was de-
MED.
The second hearing took place in
the afternoon at 2 o'clock and was
the case of George Greenman against
Miss Betsey Wilcox of Moosup. Mr..
Greenman was injured on Sept. 2,
1915, when he suffered blood poisoning
in his left hand caused by an injury
from a brier while he was binding
