NEW CADILLAC
CREDIT TO FIREMEN

The improvised fire truck, a re re-
modelled Cadillac, is a credit to the
ingenuity of the fire boys. All the
work on the truck was done by them
at odd times and the Fitzgerald Fire
department is now in shape to cope
with any fire. The trade made by
the fire committee, swapping off the
horses for the Cadillac, is proving it
self a good one.

vate teachers and tutors, then the
nelghborhood teacher, paid by the diff

OF public schools, free to all, here in
Fitzgerald even to the books. Mrs.
Howe spoke of the, duty CT teachers,
duty Of parents to the teachers and the
school, She said in part that the pa,
rents delegate their responsibilities
and duties as parents to the teachers
for certain hours during the day that,
therefore for the time being, the
teacher was, or took the place Of the
Parent therefore, the teacher should
have free authority and control for
the tine being. Mrs, Howe's earnest
nuess and sweet motherly face, ex-
