good news for the county schools and
the teachers. It means, in ail prob-
abiliy, that a good portion of the
1834 school appropriation will be in
shape to begin distribution early in
March. Since these loans started, a
good many years ago—during the N.
K. Harris administration—this is the
first time the money to repay has

MUST HAVE LICENSES
The state insurance department is
going after those agents and com
panies woo have been operating in
this state without requisite legal
qualifications und license to do busi
ness in this state. The same thing is
true in respect to some burial asso
ciations, which the department holds
qome under the state insurance laws.
About a week ago Judge J. H. Thom
as of the Brunswick circuit ■ granted
an injunction on petition of the In
surance Commissioner, against the
Mutual Burial Association with home
offices at Baxley. Another case has
been similarly handled in Tift county
in the past week or ten days, where
agents were said to be selling insur
ance in certain Texas companies
which were not qualified in Georgia.
STATESBORO JUDGESHIP
Information comes from Statesboro
that Juoge H. B. Strange is going to
contest with Judge Leltoy Cowait for
the city court juugeship m taut city,
•iii-ge Lowart is otteiing tor re-

recalled, served a time as secietary
oi state by appointment, following
tne death of the late l'hil Cook, he
was succeeded by the late Guy .llc-
Le-.-ion. who won in the succeeding
election, alter which Judge Strange
returned to Statesboro and went on
the bench in taat circuit for a time.

DISPENSARY BILL LOSES
The South Carolina legislature last
week failed to make another try ol
the whiskey dispensary system, which
rn the days of the late Ben Tillman
as their governor, it revamped from
the Athens, Ga., model, and got into
•o much trouble with. When the Caro
lina state senate was just about to
pass a county local option dispensary
bill the lower house jumped up a
similar bill and killed it. In the Pal
metto state the approaching liquor
problem is becoming one of great
concern. Very likely Georgia is going
to have to do some of the same Kind
of figuring next summer.
Mrs. Knott Resigns;
Mrs. Nelvia Ritchie
Is Named Director
In announcing the resignation of
Mrs. Annie M. Knott, a member of
The Chiistian Science Board of Di
rectors .of The Mother Church, The
First Church of Christ, Scientist, in
Boston, Mass, and the appointment
of Mrs. Nelvia E. Ritchie as her suc
cessor. the Board of Directors makes
public the following communications:
Boston, Mass.,
January 4, 1934.
To The Christian Science
Board of Directors,
Boston, Mass.
Dear Friends,
After 30 years of continuous serv
ice in Boston for the Mother Church
first as an associate editor of our
periodicals, and a member of the ,Bi-
ble lesson committee, and later, as
one of the directors of The Mothei
Church, I am now submitting my
resignation as a member of your
board. This will not come to you as a
surprise since I have made known to
you for some time my desire for leis
ure in which to gain more of the spir
it of Christian Science, and to aid
others to do the same in larger meas
ure. This does not imply any lack in
my experience in Christian Science,
for assurance of the power of divise
truth as gained from the Bible and
the Inspired teaching of Mrs. Eddy
has become a certainty. I would, how
ever, press on to realize more fully
the love that “never faileth” (I Cor.
13:8.)
The 15 years in which I have been
honored in being a member of your
board have been rich in vital experi
ences, and you may be assured of my
readiness to respond to any call from
you to serve our cause in any way. I
am, of course, deeply concerned with
the progress of our periodicals, in
cluding the Monitor which links us su
closely to the whole human family,
that we* may thus bless and be
blessed.
I am also sure that you have been
divinely guided in the choice of my
successor. Mrs. N. E. Ritchie, whose
faithful and efficient service on the
boarj of lectureship and in other ca
pacities in our movement throughout
the years, have been appreciated by
me and are well known by the field.
Lovingly and faithfully yours,
(Signed) Annie M. Knott.
Reply to Mrs. Knott
January 4, 1934.
Sirs. Annie M. Knott
Dear Mrs. Knott,
Your voluntary retirement as a
member of the board of directors of
The Mother Church marks the termi
nation of a period of service in the
cause of Christian Science that is
memorable for a number of reasons,
not the least of which is that since
the reorganization of this church in
1892 you are the only woman to have
served as a director of the Mother
Church. t
You have met the exactions of the
office with wisdom and tact; you have
carried its responsibilities without
tveakneing and without deviation from
your highest sense of right, the out
come of your implicit reliance upon
God’s omnipotence, omniscience, and
omnipresence.
Our missing you from our delibera
tions will be tempered by the knowl
edge that you will be close at hand in
case your valued counsel and matur
ed judgment should be needed.
With sin-cere love, your associates,
(Signed) William R. Rothvon,
George Wendell Adams
Charles E. Heitman
William P. McKenzie.

EXAMINATION FOR ASSISTANT
tFARM MANAGER
(Qualified in Dry Land Farming)'
CLAIMS HOWARD NOT RUNNING
While editor of the Georgia Demo
crat, published in Athens, Dan Magili
er.gincertd an organization meeting
for the Young Democratic Clubs at
which Hon. W. S. Howard of Atlanta
made a rip roaring speech about the
present state government and a pro
spective “New Deal.” The Democrat
prior to its recent sale by Mr. Magili
to M. L. St. John, said that Mr.
Howard declares he is not a candi
date for governor, but is preaching a
doctrine of betterment and a shift in
t.he political cards in Georgia. An in-
teresU'g imprinted story is that at
the Athens meeting, which was called
for the purpose of organizing a club of
Young Democrats to be affiliated
with the national organization, there
was never allowed any opportunity
for .organization: that so soon as the
meeting “came to order” the Howard
speech was delivered and immediately
upon its conclusion the meeting “ad
journed.”
