Atlanta, Ga, May 1.-Anyone who

service; and that the protection of

Now therefore be it resolved" con-
clude the resolutions, that the Of
hcers of the Chamber of Comemrce

LY DEFICIENT

Atlanta, Ga, April 29-One-half the

Fulton county schools are physically
deficient, according to the report of
the school physician who has just

girls, and this is explained on the the
DRY that girls are more careful of
