BANKERS TO MEET
IN THIS CITY
APRIL 24
WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE AUGUS
TA GROUP OF THE GEORGIA AS
SOCIATION.
TO WELL ENTERTAIN THEM
Augusta Group, Mr. Rufus H. Brown,
Chairman, lasues Invitation to the
Neighboring Georgia and Carolina
Bankers to Attend.
On April 25 the Augusta group of
the Georgia Bankers' Aasoelatlon will
hold their convention In this city.
It will b P remembered that some
time ago when the Georgia hankers
convened at Atlantic Beach, the hanks
of the state were divided by the con
vention Into six or seven groups to
form sub-divisions of the whole Stale
Association.
These smaller groups hold their
j conventions once a year as a meeting
separate from the annual convention
of all state hanks.
The Augusta group was designated
by the convention as No. 2, and Mr.
Kufiix H. Brown was made chairman
of the circuit. It comprises all thn
state hanks of Augusta. Klberton.
Hartwell. Athens. Washington. Greens
boro. Madison, l/iuisvllle. The con
ventlon of each group is expected to
occur once a year, and that which Is
to be held here on April 24 is held
preliminary to the convention of the
Georgia Bankers' Association later
An Invitation has been issued not
only to the hanks in the local group,
but to all hanks doing business in
the Augusta territory, especially those
in Carolina, whether members of the
association or not The bankers In
attendance on the convention will be
the guests of the Augusta bankers
while In the city and a line program
of entertainment is being prepared
for the visitors beside the regular bus
iness that is to be done. A large
number of outside bankers, from Geor
gia and Carolina are expected In the
city and several instructive addresses
arc to be delivered before the meet
ing.
The social features of the gather
ing are now being gone over by tae
committee in charge and all that can
to he done toward the proper enter
tainment of the visitors is being ar
ranged. They will be given an op
portunity to see Augusta at her best
and an entertainment will also be giv
en at either the Bon Air Hotel oi
Hampton Terrace.
The purpose of the convention is
first of all to improve certain systems
I now in vogue among the banks in the
Augusta group and among those in
the immediate locality. Not only is
the improvement of the local group
io be looked to, but it is hoped to cre
ate a more intimate acquaintance
among the individual groups of the
! state.
It goes without saying that Chair
man Brown and the Augusta members
of the association will spare no effort
toward the attainment of the object
aimed at in the convention and the
local members are looking forward to
a very successful meeung both from a
business and social standpoint.

Examples of Simplified Spelling
Shown In Augusts.
The crusade In favor of more slnv
pltflcd spelling will not strike Augus
ta Just at present. For some tlmo
the papers In the state have been
more or loss attentive to what la be
ing said by educators with regard to
the difficulties and Inconsistencies of
the English language, hut according
to the statement, of Mr. Lawton B.
Evans, superintendent of schools, there
are larger problems before Augusta
educators than that of changing the
methods of spelling.
Tacked up over Mr. Evans' desk
Is a list of 12 words which are now
recognised as the subject for simpler
spelling, but other than these no no
tice will be taken at present of the
new movement. These new forms,
however .are now reeognlr.ed as cor
rect by the Literary Digest, the Phil
istine and other prominent journals.
They are as follows:
Program. Prolog, Tho, Thoritfare,
' Catalog. Demagog. Altho. Thru,
Deealog, Pedagog, Thoro. Thruout.
The work of the improved spellers
in other parts of the state has been
approved by educators in Savannah
and elsewhere, and is to proceed under
the supervision of the Nationul Edu
cational association.
This organisation has been working
for a long time to the simplification
and improvement of spelling and has
made some headway. The above list
of words Is found among those adopt
ed by the association. As mentioned
these forms have been used In the
Literary Digest by Dr. Isaac K. Funk,
editor of that magazine.
Other publications have also used
the short form.
Another prominent Augusta educa
tor was asked If he had placed the
adoptions of the association to prac
tical use and replied in the nega
tive.
“Why?”
“ 'Be not the first by whom the new
Is tried
Nor yet the last to cast the old
aside.’ ”
He said in reply, and then explain
ed that he was heartily in favor of
the change so far proposed, but added
that though they were inevitable it
would require a number of years to
work the reform.
“1 am in favor of the elimination
of unnecessary letters In spelling
where the etymological Identity of
the word is not destroyed."
There is undoubtedly reason for
change, said he, but <it must be ap
proached in a conservative manner,
and cannot be accomplished at one
! stroke.
