Colonel Takes Action, But Not Without
Fling at President.

ring at FreSident.
New York, May 21--Col. Theodore
Roosevelt. formally disbanded his divi-
sion Sunday in a communication adj
dressed to his followers in which he
urged them to give service to the na-
ton in any way they might find open
in the military establishment if they
could, in civil life if they must.
In the same communication Colonel
Roosevelt made vehement answer TO
President Wilson's criticism of himself
and the volunteer movement, quoting
the presidents words against him, and
takingaa Washington dispatch as a
text, congratulating his followers for
at least having forced the general staff
to reverse itself and send troops to
France at once.
Regarding the presidents statement
that his would be IAN independent
command" Colonel ROOSEVELT says the
chief executive is misinformed. This
statement he follows up with the
declaration that in his letter to Secre-
tary of War Baker he asked to be made
the junior brigader III any command
he might be permitted to raise.
Colonel RooseveltS order to disband
was issued at Oyster Bay, whore had
gathered most of his aids, with whom
he had conferred on Saturday at the

and. would provide genuine high.
school work, which is impossible un-
der present conditions.
Another general condition was obs
served, which, in fact, is general over
the entire State. Rural graded schools
can offer only one course of instruc-
ton. Language, mathematics and
history are the fundamental subjects
for every course. The State Supervi-
sor Is convinced that with our mod
ern industrial conditions the time
has come when science should be
and rural graded schools. At pres
ent Latin is usually taught and sci
ence excluded. whereas the teaching
Of science would be more practical
and is. usually more interesting to
the pupils. The State-adopted
course of study makes ample provis-
ion for the teaching Of science.
County Superintcndent's Interest.
1t was pleasure to the State Su-
pervisor to obesrve the interest Of
the County Superintendent Of Edu-
cation IN securing adequate physical
conditions for his schools and In pro-
noting in every way possible good
classroom teaching in the schools.
The number Of new buildings exist
ing and being constructed in the
county is evidence of his success in
promoting school improvement. The
total Of special tax collected in the
county is evidence also of his deter
mination, and the determination Of
the people, to secure funds for The
maintenance Of schools. His actiy-
ity in visiting the schools and estab-
fishing acquaintance with the condi-
tions in each school is evidence Of
his desire to encourage the best Of
classroom instruction in the schools
A visitor to the county who observes
these conditions cannot be otherwise
than impressed with the fact that
Oconee Is making progress in keep
ing with the other counties OF the
State.
The State Supervisor is deeply ap-
preciative of the many kindnesses
shown him during his visit to these
Oconee schools, and will look forward
with pleasure to a return to the coun-
ty as early as opportunity affords.
