HE USES HIS WIFE'S EYES.
Walter Mcdonald, Georgia's Young
est Legislator, is Totally Blind.

When the members of the next
legislature meet in Atlanta there will
be one among the number who, aside
from being the youngest member of
the general assembly, will be the
cause of much interested comment.
He is only "a years old and he is
blind.
Walter R. Mcdonald, representa-
tive from Richmond county, is the
legislator suffering from this handi-
cap. But Mcdonald has demonstrate
ed that it will require more of a
handicap than lack of years and eye
sight to bring about defeat for him.
He is youngster of ability and de-
termination, which was demonstrat-
ed when he defeated ten aspirants
for the position he now holds.
Since early boyhood Mcdonald has
been blind. When a small boy Nc
Donald was caught taking water
melons from a farmers field. Some
body fired and the bird shot struck
the boy full in the face, destroying
forever his sight.
Mcdonald, undaunted by his ham
dicap, announced that he was going
to study law. He first went to the
blind academy at Macon; three years
later he was at Overlook, Pa, then
at Brown preparatory college in
Pennsylvania; then he was admitted
to the Georgia State university and
from that institution he graduated
in 1914.
''How did I manage it? Why, I
arranged for my roommate to study
aloud. I learned my lessons while
he studied,' Mcdonald says.
Mcdonald began to practice in
1914, and in 1916 he added the win
ming element to his life, for he took
a wife. Since his marriage his blind
ness has proved less of a hardship
than ever, for Mrs. Mcdonald, a
bright little woman, sees both for
herself and her husband. She is
going to Atlanta with him when the
legislature meets. She is to study
law there and seek admission to the
bar also. She will be admitted with
out a doubt, for she is already we'll
versed in the law, which makes her
the greatest kind of help to her hus-
band in the practice OF the profess
sion.-Augusta Chronicle.

found a new teacher in charge of this
school but the work was progressing
in highly satisfactory manner. The
building is neatly finished, but unfor-
tunately was not erected in accord
ance with the State plans and it does
not, therefore, conform to the
modern requirements of a school
house.
The next school visited was Clear
Pond At one time this was a large
school but it is now a One-teacher
school with a small enrolment. The
school is working under comfortable
conditions and the pupils have posi-
bilities of thorough instruction with
the small enrolment that are not to
be found in a larger school. There
cannot be, however, the school spirit
that exists in larger schools.
"Cak Grove is two-teacher school
in a two-teacher building erected in
accordance with the State plans, with
+ the details carefully looked after.
The enrolment of this school is not
quite sufficient to enable the school
to qualify as a rural graded school
under the rural graded school law.
With the thorough work that is be-
ing done and with the splendid equip
ment possessed by the school the time
will likely soon come when this can
be a rural graded school organized
under the State law, receiving 5000
rural graded school aid.
From Oak Grove the supervisor
went to St. Johns. This school was
| found in a new building, comfortable
and substantially erected. The old
building had been destroyed by fire.
| Upon arrival the State supervisor felt
! that this school already was in need
| of two-teacher accommodations. The
enrolment is large and the number
of classes such that thorough instruc-
tion is impossible. No one can realize
! this more than the interested and
hard-working teacher who was found
in charge of the school. Preparations
| ought soon to be made in this COM
munity for this school to become a
State aided rural graded school. The
State supervisor made an effort to
reach the Camp Hill school, but upon
his arrival he found The school closed
for the day.

ston school was visited. This school
is a rural graded school which is the
result of consolidation. The building
is modern in design, and arrange
ment, substantially constructed and
we'll finished. The enrolment and
attendance are good. The school
gave every appearance of thorough
! organization and excellent manage
ment. Colston is the type of school
that is bringing to country children
all over the State advantages that
were few years go impossible in
most of our country districts.
"The State supervisor greatly en-
joyed his visits to these schools and
will be pleased to visit other schools
in the county with the earliest oppor-
tunity. He is highly appreciative of
the many kindnesses shown him by
the teachers and the pupils with every

HOUSE MEMBERS HAD
NO RAILWAY PASSES

Tallahassee, June 1.-The select
house committee composed of Amos
E. Lewis, J. B. Rhodes and L. D.
Edge, appointed to investigate the
charges that members of the house
had been riding on railroad passes
to and from the capital has made
its report and completely exonerates
members Of that body.
The report as submitted to the
house on the matter, states that after
thorough investigation as to whether
any member of the house had been
guilty of accepting free transpoIta-
ton from any railroad in Florida, and
durglg which Percy S. Hayes, editor
of the Pensacola News, was examined
regarding certain alleged charges
made in that paper, it was found that
there was no truth whatever in the
{ charges against the membership Of
| the house.

DRASTIC LIQUOR LAW
IS NOW IN EFFECT

Tallahassee, June l. Governor
Cats has signed Moore's bill amend
ing the liquor laws relating to the
requisite of application for permits
to sell liquors. 1t is considered the
most drastic of liquor legislation, as
it will make It practically impossible
to comply with the requirements. An
application is to be signed by a ma
jority of all the white and black reg
istered voters in the presence of two
witnesses. All applications, with the
signatures, are to be published in a
newspaper for two weeks. The coun-
ty commissioners are required to con-
slider all remonstrances against petit
ton.
Under the provisions Of the bill it
is thought that it would hardly be
necessary to vote Escambia county
dry as it is believed that wet counties
will become dry automatically under
this law.

Germany Comedies Loss ct Ports.
Copenhagen, June From an ar
ticle in the Vossisehe Zeitung, of Bcr-
lin, it appears that Germany has
reconciled herself to the loss of Kiao
Chow, her former Chinese possession
and the South Sea Island colonies,
which were captured by Japan.

STA, the newspaper declares Germany

Exaggerate Naval Battle.
Copenhagen, June Via London.
The German newspapers are all
printing anniversary articles on the
naval battle on the Skaggerak, the
impression being quite generally ex-
pressed that a new battle between the
British and the German fleets is a
possibility of the near. future.
German naval writers for some
time have been discussing the pros
pect of the British fleet once more
trying conclusions with Admiral vor
Scheer's armada. Many of the writers
have been governed by the prevalent
German skepticisn1 regarding the
losses of British ships claimed by the
