sets at fourteen years of age and
many do not wear them at any age.
The girl who stands properly. and

are being more and more simplified
in lines, conforming to those of the
body and SO softened that the wearer
is not in a straitjacket, as wasl
thought proper many years ago. The
thing to do, is to put off the day for
wearing corsets as long as possible.

young figure is always elastic. Exer-

lines Of action and to keep the figure

On last Wednesday the teachers
had some difficulty in retaining the
attention of their classes, for outside
the air was thick with snowflakes
gently and silently covering the cam
pus with blanket of pure white.
The boys took advantage of the
five minutes rest period to hurry on
the campus and hurl snow balls at
each other around the corners of the
buildings. After four o'clock, some
of the teachers and students gather
ed on the campus and drew two lines,
between which lay mo mans land.
Then the battle began in earnest |!
Snow balls were hurled thick and
fast across the intervening space.
Here and there students could be seen
chasing each other around the build
ings, hurting snow balls as they went.
The ringing of the supper bell put an
end to the sport. Ruddy faces, cold
fingures, and touseled hair indicated
that they had had plenty of exercise
and fun.

Georgia Rich but Broke.

For many years the counties of Georgia have not
assessed their property values fully, but have only
assessed a certain percentage Of the true values.
This of course resulted in making the local tax rate
higher but reduced the to be paid to the state
which was the sole purpose and intent of the prac-
tice. That sounds dishonest but it an undisputed
fact Gradually the assessments were lowered and
the state s portion grew less until it is no wonder
that the state is broke 1t would be better to
get the assessment on real values, and have state
of great wealth with low tax rate-just as it is
If this is continued it may be finally necessary
for the state to have it's separate tax
to get its taxes out of the counties.
To say the least of it, it does not suggest very
high standard Of morals and civic honesty.
Last year the state tax commissioner appealed
for an increase in valuations, but few counties
appear to have responded as to make the appeal
ridiculous. Georgia needs one strong legislature
and off Gals to back it up. -
How long are to be looked on as poor state
with high tax rate, instead of rich state with a
low tax rate9 ..,s+tn- n
Georgia boosters could do no better service to the
state than to get this system changed.

England long ago.

It IS a fact that less of the real truth about the

America let her demagogues and blatherskites pro
yoke an unrighteous war with England lust to sat
sty their own political ambitions? Have we lost

A Fitting Tribute

It is altogether fitting that the
bodies of the American naval men
who persisted in the wreck Of the
ZR-2 are to be brought home on
II. II. S. Dauntless. This is a
tribute to them from the British
government. 1t is also a mark of
respect to their memories by their
comrades in the British navy.
Americans and British alike died
in the line Of duty, just as did
those who we're killed in the war
They died that the cause of avia-
ton might be advanced. Tragic as
was their end, it is to be hoped that
they have not died in vain.
That Great Britain appreciates
the Importance of their sacrifice is
shown in her desire to render them
honors usually reserved for the
highest government officials. 1t is
an act that naval men will under
stand.
