: A Loose Cog Somewhere

There is something radically wrong with our present
school system Marietta. 1t is not purpose to try
to locate the blame, and individually may be
blamed with the whole wretched state of affairs, but it
is useless to attempt conceal the fact that something
is wrong-ahd big
We are sure whiting the bounds OF truth When
we saw that somewhere in the practice of affairs we nave
been 'penny wise and pound foolish" We know very
well that every member of our board is gentleman,
rstass business man. and has the interest of our peo-
nile and city at heart but somewhere there is loose
cog in the machinery Our school superintendent is also
a good business and gentleman, and we are not
inclined to make him the goat.
Rut when children hudded into rooms so cold that
thew must wear all their wraps to keep from freezing
when easements are flooded when pipes allowed to
freeze in spite weather forewarnngs and boilers are
so badlv damaged require replacing entirely with
new ones at enormous expense, and schools thus Tor
weeks at Internationally the word-t is certainly
time to look for the loose cog.
If we, remember Alright, last winter was much the
same SO far as regularity of heating concerned
and certainly child who is suffering from the cold Will
not acoure much in an educational waymore probably
will accumulate of the flu.
The city of Marietta should have good school sys-
tenn and comfortable school buildings If the construc-
tion of our present buildings faulty it is false econ
omv to neglect correcting the defects
This is matter that personally concerns every parent
and therefore the whole people, more vitality than any
other possibly can. The loose is costing us money,
and more than money-it is costing us the health and
future of children.

We Lose a Good Man

We consider the action of the Board of County Com
issoners on Tuesday in abolishng the office of County
Agent possibly the most ill-advsed of recent years
This Office which has been ably filled by Dr. Sawyer
has done more for Cobb County than a hundred such
salaries as that paid him-$SO0 per year.
True, he wanted 81 900 for the next year, but how
nv one could his annual report to the board which
we published last week, and then vote to abolish the
Office is beyond comprehension.
His work for last year with the young people alone
was worth double meager salary. So far he is con-
cerned he has only let be known that he free to
accept other work and hundred counties in the state
would be glad get him. and this is in type no doubt
he will have had offers
Certainly our commissioners were laborng under a
rosapprehension when they abolished this office and the
v of it is that they could not get Dr. Sawyer back
at anv price they should reconsider what we be
eve to have been hasty and ilconsdered action for
the reason that he will have gone elsewhere
We believe that the young people of the county, with
whom Dr. Sawyer worked faithfully, will feel that
this blow to their club work
We do hope that they will take it, and that they
NAV be spurred further and independence by
this 81 a blow to their club work
With Dr. Sawyer and his good wife, wherever their lo
shall be cast will go our best wishes.
At the same time we have harsh criticism of the
board-s their business to run the countys aars-no
ours and believe in their honesty OF purpose

NOTICE
To The Voters of the 39th Senatorial
n..1-.o4,

To The Voters of the 39th Senatorial
District:
A little while ago, / received pc,
tition signed by many influential citi-
zens of the 18th Senatorial District
requesting that become candidate
for Senator of the new 39th Sena-
torial District. 1t meant of course
that would have to fill such posi-
ton at great sacrifice, since the duties
of the office would take up a great
part of the time | should devote to
my business interests.
The request that l announce my
candidacy was so strong, however
that / could not refuse without let
ting my friends and fellow citizens
think | was not public spirited, or
had the resire to serve them. And
so I accepted the candidacy, being
assured there would be not opposi-
ton.
Through the creation of the the
new Both senatorial district by the
legislature, it was the understanding
here, that the election of a senator
would be necessary and according to
rule, Cobb County was to have the
privilege of picking the candidate.
Now it seems that the Attorney-Gen-
eral ruled that this district was not
entitled to elect new senator in the
election of Tuesday January 7th, and
the Atlanta Constitution published
an article on December 21st, announc-
ing the ruling of the Attorney-Gen-
eral with the addition of sundry re-
marks, as to the reason why our dis
trict cannot elect a senator at this
time. l have answered this article
in full and which is being published
along with this announcement.
Since this matter has come up, l
have decided not to be a candidate
at all, even should an election be call
ed later, and l state my reasons in the
article, but | do want to thank my
friends and fellow citizens who so
kindly petitioned me to make this
race and who offered to give me their
most active support and feel that it
is really worth the trouble l have
been put to to know that l have the
good will and confidence of the peo-
pie with whom almost my entire life
has been spent.
However, l do want to say, that
| consider this not only very i'm
portant matter to Marietta and this
district to have duly elected Sen
ator, but in fact to the state at large.
Your friend and fellow citizen,
MOULTRIE M. SESSIONS.

Insidious Propaganda

An adro nsidious, underhand propaganda is at work
to create bad feeling between Great Britain and the
United States incident to the conference negota-
tions.
Just where from not clear, except that IN
general way is evident that the wellknown proGerman
"lineup" of before and during the Isl to say the
least of it. doing nothing to discourage it, and that this
element going far it dares in contributing to
the to create dscord between the two great English
speaking nations of the world.
If any two nations ought stand together in that the
sympathies sentiments and welfare of both inter
woven they are Great Britain and the United States
Almost one hundred years ago the United States and
Great Britain agreed that henceforth there should be
Notifications araments upon the United STATESMAN
adam boundary line nor upon the Great Lakes and from
that day to this neither nation has broken its covenant
AS radiant example to all the world that boundary line
has stood absolutely unguardedsave by the spirit OF
honor goodwill and righteousness without as much
as even symptom of friction.
Certainly there is at this time ground for conflict
between these two great world powers.
On the other hand there every reason why the oonds
that tie them together should be strengthened rather than
weakened.
The very worst thing that could happen for the world
today would be sraning of the cordial relationship pc
tween this country and Great Britain.
1t would not only affect the two nations Immediately
involved but the whole world would be affected by It,
With Great Britain and the United States working to-
eether in harmony and in spirit of friendly cooperation
that has characterized their relationship for almost
century, the worlds peace contentment and happiness IS
more assured than it would be by other one possible
influence
The pubc should beware of the anti British propaganda
that is floating about the air like poisonous vapors and
the people America should bear in mind that those
resnonsbe for it are much the enemies of Great
Britain as they the enemies of the United STATES

The Senatorial Middle

In the firm belief that of prevention is worth
pound of cure we would suggest court decision upon
the legality of the representation, construed by
the Attorney General of the state senatorial districts
We must confess that constitutional lawyer,
but reasoning presented in the letter of Hon Mou
trie M Sessions in this issue is in plainly wOrded English
and is most convincing to the mind of layman.
If Mr. Sessions is correct in his assumption, and the
next state shall be constituted ruled upon
by the Attorney General every law passed by that body
during the whole term, may be ruled in court as null
and void
The question certainly should be settled legally before
rather than after the next session of the legislature and
we commend Mr. Sessions for bringing to the attention
of the people at this time.

EVERY SOLDIER A GENTLEMAN

gentlemen in my club in the last

Cox, the War Camp Community Ser

"Never once in that time has a single
one of the 100000 soldiers who have
been entertained here committed any
act that would be described as other
wise than gentlemanly. And yet they
say that army life brutalizes a man."
The most popular person in this

is the tiny faxen-haired three year
old daughter of E. j. Garmhausen,
the club manager. Perhaps it is be-
cause they are used to discipline, but
