BOOK PRICES TOO
HIGH, HADEN SAYS
Even Higher Prices May Be Ex-
pected, He Tells Atlanta
Church Workers

ATLANTA, April 17.-Excessive
prices charged for school books are
doing a great wrong to the people
of Georgia, said Charles j. Haden.
former president of the Georgia
Chamber of Commerce, in address
ing a joint committee of represen-
tatives of eighty Atlanta churches.
Nonresident book combines, he
declared cost the State of Georgia
$4,OOO,OOO more than if the books
were printed in the state of Geor-
gia.
Already the cost Of books for
our public schools" said Mr.. Haden,
under the state system form the
first to the seventh grades,
amounts to $20.74 per child. Notice
has been served by the book mo
nopolies that prices will be raised
considerably with the next school
year.
"In round figures, there are $780,
600 children in the public schools
of Georgia, making the seven
grades approximately $16,OO0,000.
A careful inquiry among publishers
and dealers develops the fact that
these books can be printed in Geor-
gia at a saving of between Is and
so per cent. Accepting the lowest
estimate, we are paying $4,000,00O
in excess.
Publishing houses of our State
rank with the best and our editorial
talent of the highest rank, yet we
bow the knee to book printers in
Northern cities and pay this annual
excess"

CADET Is IN SHOOT
MAKE HIGH SCORE
Riverside Academy Rifle Team
May Prove Strong Conten-
der For Trophy

ATLANTA, April ia remark
able record has been made by the
rifle team of riverside Military
Academy of Gainesville, Ca, ac-
cording to reports received here to-
day by army officers. The members
of the gallery rifle team Of the
academy who were chosen to rep
resent the school in the William
Randolph Hearst Tournament have
just completed their firing.
The result shows a grand team
average of 1848 points out of a
possible 1000 points, or an individ-
ual average of 92.40. Due to the
character of the targets used for
the National R. o. T. c. Rifle Com
petition, it is said to be very dill
ficult to secure a perfect score,
and the statement is made that the
score of the Riverside Cadets will
compare favorably with the scores
made by other essentially military
schools.
Cadet Corporal Sala, it was an
nounced, made two remarkable
scores at the prone and sitting posi-
lions of SO and SO, respectively, his
average for the four positions being
96.4 out of possible fC0. The
scores of the individual members
of the team are: Sala, 95.4; Ward,
1872; Huff, 93.2; Aubrey, 90, and
Parsons, go.
The targets have been forward
ed to the committee which will de-
eide the winner of the valuable
Hearst trophy to be given to thai
essentially military school of the
United States which makes the
best score in the competition.
The cadets of Riverside Military
Academy take great interest in
their rifle competitions, it was stat
ed by army officers here today.
They led all schools of their type in
rifle competitions during the last
three years. Members of the rifle
team are accorded the privilege OF
wearing the ''R" Cadet Huff, the
team captain is senior and has REP
resented Riverside in all brancehs
of sport.

STRINGENT new DOG
ORDINANCE IS PASSED
Albany VIII Require Either Muz-
cling or incubation, Eff
fective May 1st

ALBANY, April 17.-At an adj
journed meeting of the City Corn
mission when all members of the
board except Commissioner E. H.
Kalmon were present, the ordinance
requiring that dogs either be in
oculated against rabies and tagged
or that they be muzzled was passed,
but the milk ordinance went over
to the regular meeting to be held
next Tuesday night.
Under the now dog ordinance,
which becomes effective May /, own
ers of dogs will be required to have
them inoculated and to secure tags
showing that they have been inocu-
lated or to have them securely
muzzled at all times except when
they are being fed or treated for
some disease. The city will do the
incubation for fee, or it will &C.
cept the certificate of a practicine
veterinarian. Tags will be issued to
owners of inoculated dogs, and dogs
found on the streets without such
tags will be killed. Nothing in the
ordinance will prevent the city from
killing mad dogs, even if they have
been inoculated. The ordinance also
provides that all dogs shall be in
occulated anew each year between
December 81 and February l.
1t is believed that the new ordi-
nance, if rigidly enforced, will re-
suit in the elimination of rabies in
the community in few years.

ATLANTA, April 17-Preparc
to clean up, paint up and brush up
for the annual cleanup season is

made here by city, county and state
officials for a thorough campaign
for the cleaning up of premises,
streets, alleys and vacant places.

green this morning; there is a green
shoot, species unknown, an inch
above the ground. Against the back
porch the dead limbs of last years
vines hang brown and ugly; all the
winds of the earth have plastered
waste paper against the fences;
the window boxes have the decayed
stumps of ANIMALS no one thought it
worth while to remove; the alley is
dowdy with a dilapidated garbage
can and occasional heaps Of rubbish
which the wind scatters again over
near by yards. This is the passing Of
winter. 1t is good old springtime.
The Clean up and Paint up CAM
paign which has become a national
institution in the United States is
designed to capture this reflective
contemplation with which man mus

The impulse is nothing less than
the will to remove the rubbish, tidy
up the lot, front and back, dress
the garden, mop up the garage, see
the waste litter removed, and if
necessary, have job of painting
done on the house before the win

ton three times she had had to make
sudden tack of safer subjects. What
had she meant by that reference to
Eastern and Western flowers? His
answer reminded him how well he
knew. And the confession about her
husband, the worshIper of success
what he calls success"-h0w much
tragedy lay under those light words?
The valley was filled with shadow,
and the level rays of the setting sun
fell on the young mans face and
splashed the hilltops with gold and
saffron as within his heart ragged the
| age-old battle. But as yet he
felt none of Its wounds. He was con-
scious only of a wholly irrational de-
light
As the next forenoon passed Grant
found himself glanclng with increasing
| frequency toward the end of the field
where the little boy might be expected
to appear. But the day wore on with
out sign of his young friend, and the
burrows which he had turned so joy-
ously at nine were dragging leadenly
at eleven. He had not thought it DOS
| sible that child could so quickly have
won a way to his affections. He fell
| to wondering as to the cause Of the
boys absence. Had Zen, after u nights
reflection, decided that 1t was wiser
| not TO allow the acquaintance to de-
veiop? Had Transley, returning home.
placed his veto upon It? Grand his
heart paused at this prospect-had the
foot been more seriously hurt than
| they had supposed? Grant told him
self that he must go over that night
and make inquiry. That would be
the neighborly thing to do.
But early that afternoon his heart
was delighted by the sight of a little
figure skipping joyously over the fur
rows toward him. He had his hat
crumpled In one hand. and his teddy
bear in the other. and his face was
alive with excitement He was putting
profusely when he pulled up beside the
plow. and Grant stopped the team
while he got his breath.

they consorted poorly with his cos
tune. And she had shaken hands and
said good-by in the manner of good

The more Grant thought Of it the
more was he convinced that in her
case, as in his own, the years had
failed TO extlnguish the spark kindled
in the foothills that night so long ago.
He reminded himself continually that
she was Transley's wife, and even
while granting the irrevocabllity of
that fact he was demanding TO know
why Fate had created for them both

possibilities. He had turned her words
