Rutland, July 11.-Work will be begun In
few days under the direction Of the Kill
ington section of the Green Mountain
club TO build a second shelter house on the
summit of Mount Ellington. Two years
ago the club erected a metal building and
put n stove in it but this has proved in
adequate when two or more parties are on
the mountain and inconvenient when peo-
pie wish to remain over night there The
new building will be made of wood taken
from the remains of a barn which stood
beside the old hotel. the decayed ruins of
which were long since burned. There is
wood enough in the dilapidated barn to
put up a big shelter.

SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER
RESENTS TINES STORY
Saws Mothers and Not the Board Re-
quested the Meeting and
Cooperative Work

Marietta, Ga, Mar. 10, 1919.
Editor, Marietta Journal,
Marietta, Ca,
Dear SIR
The Cobb County Times carried last
week an account of the meeting of
the Mothers with the Board of Edu-
cation, which was wholly incorrect.
The facts are these:
The Board did not invite the Moth
ers to meet with them. The mothers
asked permission to meet with the
Board, which the Board gladly con-
sented to. The Mothers presented
many things that they wanted to do
all of which they proposed to finance
themselves, which would be very help
full to the schools, and which the
Board gladly consented to be done,
but made it clear that the Boards
financial condition did not permit the
Board in mourning any liability in the
way of improvements. The Mothers
did not ask it, but merely asked per-
mission of the Board to cooperate
with them in doing the number of
things outlined, making it very clear
that they would bear the expense.
The Board realizes as they have
done for some time past that there
are many things that could be done
and should be done to make our
schools modern in every way, but the
Board has fixed amount of income
with a fixed amount of expense.
They have prudently avoided invol-
wing the Boards credit.
The above are the facts in the mat
ter. Yours truly,
M. L. MCNEIL.

FULTON AND MARIETTA
PLAY BIG CHAMPIONSHIP
GAME THIS AFTERNOON
VIII Be Staged in Atlanta
Auditorium
Special Cars Will Leave Marietta At
Two O'Clock. Local Team Is In
Great Shape for Final Test. Two
of Team Get All-Star Positions.
the day.

lOudy . LIIS udys
This afternoon at three thirty in
the spacious Atlanta Auditorium will
be staged the most important basket
ball game of the season in the Girls
Prep League.
Although Marietta lost to the Full
ton girls in the first encounter this
season, it was by a margin of only a
single point, and it is confidently ex-
pected that this game will be hard
fought.
The Marietta girls have been work
ing hard since the Fulton game and
are showing much improvement, and
have piled up greater scores on their
opponents than has Fulton. For the
past week the local team has been
in the hall every evening going
through some hard practice. They
are ready for the whistle.
The Atlanta papers, in choosing the
All-Prep five, have unanimously Sc
lected Muriel Williams as guard and
Rebecca Cole as a forward. Muriel
was named as the best player in the
league.
While these two players stand out
as bright and particular stars, the
local team has it's other positions
filled with players that you cannot
tell from "all-star" players with the
naked eye. Captain Katharyne Galley
will be there to guard Fulton's basket,
and she can certainly be depended
on to do thorough job of guarding
Our "All-Beauty'' performer, Miss
Ruth Galley, and the youngest player
in the league, will be at left forward.
While she does not make the sensa-
tional throws of Miss Cole, she sure
will register if given half a chance
Miss Gladys Gober will be at cen
ter and can be depended on to take
care of Fulton's terrible center.
IF Marietta wins this game it will
mean that Marietta and Fulton are IN
a tie for the pennant and will peces-
state playing a post-season game to
determine the championship. For two
wears Fulton has been unbeaten and
the locals will try hard to break their
winning streak Marietta has lost to
no other team in the league except
Fulton in the same period of time,
and only by a single point each time.
We feel that the time has come for
a change in luck!
Come and encourage the girls.

Somewhere in France

Somewhere in France the lilies blow,
Under a golden sun,
And a white rose kisses red, red rose
AS the winds toss one by one.
Somewhere in France the violets
bloom,
Under an azure sky,
Saying to winter and a sin-swept world
"Be-gone! Old Sorrow! Goodyear
Somewhere in France a white dove
rests,
Folded wings on a downy nest;
Buildings asleep on warm, warm
breast
All, mother-love Take thy rest!
Somewhere in France the peoples
grow;
In Flanders field they sleep,
Those who yesterday awoke to arms
Oh, eyes, forget to weep!
Somewhere in France the white ships
wait,
Or sail on deep blue sea
To land of love: 80 God above!
Bring back my boy to me-!
Somewhere in France" o God, 0
Love!
My vigil now | keep;
But lilies blow, and violets grow
Above my boy Sin sleep"
Somewhere" and There"
Oh! pale lips pray,
For thy coming Lord
And His perfect day."

SENTENCED FOR FORGERY
Fraud In Civil Service Application
Results In Conviction

The United States Civil Service
Commission reports that on February
K 1919. in the United States District
Court at Columbus, Georgia, Ullman
A. Everett was sentenced to serve
term of one year ond one day IN the
Federal penitentiary at Atlanta Tor
violation of Section % of the Penal
Code.
Everett entered an examination for
the United States Civil Service at
Columbus, Georgia, on December T.,
1915. When his application was re-
ceived and examined at the office OF
the Civil Service Commission it ap-
reared that the application itself and
the character vouchers attached there
to were in the same hadwriting, al
though the vouchers bore the names
of John Burge and L. P. Taylor. The
Civil Service Commissioner lmmedl-
ately placed the matter in the hands
of the Department of Justice Tor IN
vestigation and the possible prose
cution of Everett for forgery. Ever
EFT was indicted on May 8, 1917, the
case being assigned for trial on Dec
6. 1917. At the appointed time
Everett failed to appear. According
w. his bond was forfeited and he was
declared a fugitive from justice. He
was later apprehended and his case
set for trial in the next term OF court.

TECH STUDENTS WORK
AND STUDY BY TURNS
Cooperative Plan, Whereby Students
Work Way Through School, Puts
Six In Company Service.

In cooperation with the Georgia
School Of Technology at least two
heads of company departments are
helping worthy young men to work
their way through that school and at
the same time to acquire valuable ex-
perience along the precise line of their
studies. The plan under which this is
done was originated in the University
of Cincinnati where there are now
some 500 "co-ops" to about 100 other
students. 1t consists of employing
two students in one position, the stu
dents alternating with each other be-
tween working and studying.
Two of these cooperative" pairs
are working now in the water depart
ment under Supt. F. w. Hadley, who
says he is more than pleased with the
arrangement, not only from the com

Tech, under the same plan, as assist
ant operator at Boulevard substation.
Mr.. Simpsons "pair" is yet to be
selected. Mr. Herault expects later
to employ at least one pair in the
shot" line work of his department.
The benefits of this plan are mu-
tual. The employer receives the SER
vices of a workman of intelligence
and character above the average, and
the student is enabled to pay his own
way through an educational course
that offers the ideal combination of
theory and practice.
The above from the bulletin of the
Ga. Ry. e Power Company tells of
a new and popular phase of combin-
ing college and technical work in a
practical way.

pany's standpoint, but from that of
the students themselves. Charles B.,
Butler and David Comfort, Jr., are
paired at Morgan Falls station, where
they started work on February / on
a schedule of two weeks study and
two weeks work. In order to save
transportation cost, they probably will
change it to a monthly basis later.
And since February Is D. w. Phillips
and Joseph HI. Knighton have been
carried on the Tallulah Falls payroll
on the same arrangement, they having
agreed between themselves to change
each month. At both stations the
students are in service as mechanics.

MARIETTA NOW HAS A
LADY MAIL CARRIER

Mrs. Annie Watson who recently
passed the Civil Service examination
has been accepted as substitute clerk
at the local postoffice.
Under the present system it is very
frequently necessary for clerk from
the postoffice to make the rounds of
the city carriers, in the capacity of
a substitute.
On last Tuesday such occasion
arose, and Mrs. Watson proved equal
to it, taking the round alone and
making the delivery in most salts
factory manner.
And as often as may be necessary
she will be on the job. This is the
pluck that wins anywhere.
