ATLANTA HAS SCHOOL
PROBLEMS OF HER OWN

Atlanta, Sept. 12.-Providing class
rooms for the children who apply for
admission to Atlanta public schools
has again become the foremost prob
lem in the city government, and only
an issue Of bonds will be adequate to
meet the needs of the situation. 1t
has been the history OF Atlanta's
growth that bonds were needed at in
tervals Of ten years or less to catch
up with the growth of the school pop
ulation. Atlantians are depending up
on Asa G Gambler, mayor-elect, to re-
vive the old atlanta Spirit" and weld
the various factions of the community
IN harmonious union that will make
possible an issuance of bonds.
Twenty seven thousand children yes
treday applied for admission to the
public schools, and the present build
ings provide adequate accommoda-
tons for probably not more than %,
900.

George decided it would be best for
him to hunt other quarters.
Out he started on foot. 1t happened
that there were several horses hitch
ed close around the grounds and the
boys quickly got them and rode after
him. When he discovered that they
were in pursuit he tried to escape
around the side of little sand hill
which he was climbing but they soon
overlook him, captured him and took
him down and rolled him in the sand
and very soon relieved him of his uni
form. Someone furnished him horse
which he mounted without saying
goodbye, leaving uniform and all

now, but the last time | heard of him
he was in Dodge county The matter
of going to war which he so lightly
considered at first finally took on
more serious turn and he could not
remain away from his fellow neigh
bors who were there fighting. He
made a good soldier, never turned his
back on the enemy until that was the
best part of valor and honored the uni
form which was at one time taken
from him for his seeming unfaithful-

garb when his companions stripped
him of his uniform, but came back
home from Lees ranks proudly wear
ing the gray that smelled of battle,
where the bravest men in the world
did the fighting.

WILL WAIT A WHILE TO
APPOINT LUMPKIN'S SUCCESSOR

Atlanta, Sept. Ex-Governor Nat f.
Harris did not appoint yesterday, nor
will he appoint today, an dprobablT
will not appoint for several days,
successor to serve the uneXpired term
of Judge Joseph HC-1y Lumpkn OF
the court of appeals, who recently
died in Atlanta from a stroke OF
paralysis.
1t was reported in Atlanta yester-
day that Governor Harris had about
decided to appoint Judge Price Gil
Der of Columbus to fill the vacancy
but the governor disposed of this re-
port by stating that he had not even
considered the appointment.
The governor believes the selection
of judge for the court of appeals is
a matter of toom UGH moment to be
hastily decided, and in this belief he
is supported by lawyers and other
citizens over the state, who have writ
ten and telegraphed him to hold the
matter in allegiance until after the pri-
mary.

BANK WILL launch
A Big Pig Club
FORTY COLQUlTT COUNTY BOYS
TO BE STARTED OFF I'M RAISING
FINE HOGS. y

Moultrie Sept 1.-THE Moultrie
Banking Company will soon launch
bip campaign to encourage the raising
of thoroughbred hogs in the county.
At a recent meeting of the directors
of the bank, a plan submitted by the
officers for county pig club was en-
dorsed.
The plan for the pig club is for the
bank to furnish Colquitt county boys
of good reputation, with a thorough
bred and registered pig which the boy
and in the course of a year return
to the bank two such pigs as the one
originally given. AS the pigs are re
turned from the first set of boys, they
will be given to other boys, and the
pig club will grow, until it touches ev-
cry boy ip the county who wants to
start into raising hogs of the better
sort.
The boys who have been members of
the corn club in the county will be
given the preference, as it is thought
that they have proven their metal,
but the scheme will in time reach
all the boys who are willing to prop
erly care for the pig turned over to
them.
The complete plan for the club will
be announced later.

BY J. D. PATE.

To write ffty-fve years after things
are passed is no little task. However
such is the case in this instance. In
1860 or 1861 DR.. S. T. Heard started
out to raise a company of volunteers
in this part of lower Dooly, as it was
then called. He succeeded very well
in raising the company.
Finally when the required number
was about completed, an enthusiastic
woodsman. George Pitts. who
will be remembered by many of the
old settlers, was induced to join. The
time was drawing near when the com
pany was expected to march off to the
front. The people of the commune
ty ware aware of the fact and wanted
to do something for them before they
left. II was decided among them to
get the company together and give
them a big public dinner at Bay
I Springs. SO the day was announced
and all necessary preparations were
made. In many cases all the boys
of the family had joi>ed this compa-
ny which made citizens all the more
Eanxious to do something for them be
fore their departure.
Finally the day set for the big din
ner arrived and there was big gath
ering of people from everywhere. A
big public dinner was no common
thing in that day and it seemed that
everybody tried TO be present. And 50
was George Pitts. From. some cause
George became dissatisfied and let
the company know it. On that day
he had drawn his uniform and had it
on for the big dinner. The company
did not like the idea very much and
demanded the return of it.

young man who had his arm mangled
ia a gin at Rochelle Tuesday last, died

his chances for recovery were slim

before medical aid could reach him. By
The time his strength had been built
to where he could stand amputation
Infection from gas bacilli had set in
and this made it impossible to save
him. This is one of the few cases Of

interest among physicians and lay
men.
He was the only child of his moth
er, a widow, Mrs. ReDecca Williams.
