If Yon Would Teach,
Ton Will Have to Overhaul Your
Thinkery and do Additional
Stunts.
' County School Commissioner T.
IL Robertson has received advice
from the State School Commissioner
that those who wish to stand the
examinations for license to teach
will be required to make suitable
proficiency in the h ranc^es design
ated below.
Since the passage of the school
law, in 1897, History and Phy
siology have been added to the
curriculum of the common schools.
History will include Georgia his
tory and the biographies of distin
guished Americans, and Physiology
will embrace Hygiene. Applicants
for third grade license are expected
to pass the questions on the fol
lowing:
1. Common school branches.
2. “Manual of Methods for
Georgia Teachers.”
3. Page’s “Theory and Practice
of Teaching.”
Applicants for second grade
license will be expected to pass on
the above and, in addition, Roark’s
“Methods in Education.”
First grade applicants will have
the same texts, and will be expected
to make the required average.
Those who stand for State or
permanent license are advised to
carefully review the following:
1. Civics (with History).
2. Spencer’s Essays on Educa
tion.
3. History and Philosophy of
Education.
* 4. Psychology.
5. English and American Lit
erature (with Grammar and Read
ing).
6. Elementary Physics and
Physical Geography (with common
school geography).
GRANGE HALL.
It is so very rainy and muddy we
fear the news will not reach the
Eagle office, but we are going to
try it any way.
School is a little off during this
rainy weather.
We understand that Squire A.
H. Jackson gave some of the young
people a party Monday night.
The types must have got wrong
last week. They said that the Odd
Fellows of New Bridge lodge
would have public installation of
officers and a supper on the second
Sunday, when it should have been
the second Saturday in this month.
There was also an erf or in regard
to the marriage of Prof. Hicks and
Miss Johnson. Mr. Hicks’ initials
are V. R., instead of A. J., and he
is not from Dawson county, but
from Dahlonega, where he has a
large circle of friends, and where
he and his beautiful young bride,
together with her sister, Miss
Leila, and Mr. Nathan Jay, spent
last Saturday and Sunday. They
were given a most elegant supper
Saturday night by Mrs. Hatfield
and some of Mr. Hicks’ schoolmates
at the' Hatfield boarding house,
where he boarded while in college
last spring.
We fear that Grange Hall Literary
Circle will go dead if some of the
members do not take more interest
in it. The present officers are:
Lester Johnson, President; Miss
Alice Whelchel, Vice President;
Sylva Jay, Secretary; Miss Edith
Johnson, Critic.
Prof Carl Shutz, principal of
Nimblewill Academy, spent last
Monday night with Mr. and Mrs.
V. R Hicks.
SUGAR HILL.
There was a dance at Mr. Claud
Trulove’s last Friday night.
Mr. E. L. Burton is erecting a
neat dwelling house. So look out,
girls.
There was a pound supper at
Mr. T. G. McMillan’s last Saturday
night.
Mr. M. A. McNeal went over to
Tadmore Sunday, as usual.
J. B. Butterworth and son of)
Candler were in our vicinity this ■
week.
Henry Me. gets a lot of letters
from Pendergrass here lately.
JAARETT.
We are rapidly nearing the blow
ing month and no farming done
yet.
Candy-drawings are as common
down here as corn bread, and as a
result we are as sweet a people as
can be found in any cracker com
munity.
Mr. M. M. Brown will soon be
ready to saw lumber at Eugene
Fuller’s mill. Richmond Stand
ridge has got the job of doodling
dust.
Mr. M. F. Deason went to Ath
ens last week to buy an engine for
the purpose of sawing shingles.
When he commences again he will
be found at the same old stand,
where he and Louis Cato had their
wreck some time ago.
Your humble scribe had the mis
fortune of having his only porker
crushed to death under a barn last
Monday, and as soon as our hog
coroner can be summoned, the ob
sequies will be performed and the
remains laid to rest amid sobs as big
as was ever belched from a rusty
soul.
Mr. J. C. Jarrett, who has been
very feeble since Christmas, is able
to walk about again.
Our Sunday school at Harmony is
still asleep, and won’t even awake
under the strongest darts of meta
physics and hypnotism. Some sug
gest broken doses of religion, but
as that is a tropical product, it isn’t
likely that it would thrive in this
latitude.
Our farmers are all bent on plant
ing a large corn crop this year, and
quit looking West for hog and
hominy. We would be glad to see
this resolution put into practice
everywhere, because when there is
plenty of corn about, either dry or
liquid measure, happiness beams
from every visage.
Mr. W. T. Jarrett and ye scribe
made a tour of Jackson county last
week, and enjoyed the hospitality
of as generous people as ever
graced the soil. We weren’t used
to very much grub at home, and
when we invaded the land of the
living and beheld the bounteous
supply of goodies that were spread
before us in such rich profusion we
could hardly suppress our delight
and appreciation, and had Mr. Jar
rett kept his foot off mine, I might
have been accused of going far be
yond the border termed “modern
etiquette.” But despite their good
fortune and contentment along
these lines, there are two things
that lire their brain and set their
whole frame topsy-turvey, and that
is their law governing their schools
and roads. The alternative road
law has always been a thorn in the
flesh with them, and before the old
sore gets well, to heap some school
regulations which are against the
grain on top of that makes the
gangrene appear and causes its
possessor to emit sentences that
would not sound pleasing to the ad
vocate of these new regulations. A
majority of the people we saw and
I talked with argued that it was their
I inherent right to have a voice in
the laws that should govern them,
and that if ignorance was bliss two
or three had no right to bore them
with wisdom, and blaze the way
that leads only to malice, heart
burnings and bitter hatred. We
all harp a right smart on “liberty,”
but if we don’t get it up here we’ll
just cuss a little, get hot, and cool
: off, give our foes the right hand of
' fellowship, and we are all one
again.
Nearly Forfeits His Life.
A runaway almost ending fatally,
started a horrible ulcer on the leg of J.
B. Omer, Franklin Grove, 111. For four
years it defied all doctors and all reme
dies. But Bucklen’s Arnica Salve had
no trouble to cure him. Equally good
for burns, bruises, skin eruptions, and
piles. 25c. at M. C. Brown’s drug store.
Information Wanted.
I would like to hear from my
sister, Luvenia Jane Warren, who
went to Greenville, S. C., twenty
years ago. I have written to her
often, but cannot hear from her.
Any information about her will be
greatly appreciated.

BELLTON.
We have been patiently watching
for Judge Hill’s decision in the con
test of the Bellton election, as
there are two sets of so-called
mayors and councils here. Our
streets are almost impassable,
bridges rotten and washed away,
and lumber been lying in the streets
ten months to repair same. There
are places where vehicles have been
forced to leave the streets and drive
on the sidewalks, thereby compell
ing men, women and children to
wade through the mire as best they
can. We were in hopes that Judge
Kimsey’s attention would have been
called to this fact during the last
court. It is to be hoped that
Judge Russell’s attention will be
called to same when his court con
venes in Banks in March. The
town being in both Hall and Banks
either Judge has jurisdiction over
these matters.
Miss Love McDaniel of Athens
has charge of our school now, and
we feel very much gratified over
her success as a teacher.
Dr. Dixon’s Enterprise.
Dr. Dixon, whose death occurred
Sunday morning, was a real public
benefactor by reason of his enter
prise and energy, both in private
business and in public trust.
He was the first citizen of Gaines
ville to place curbing before the
sidewalks of his place of business.
During his chairmanship of the
county board of commissioners he
did the county great service by
building bridges where there were
none and by making every bridge
in the county a free bridge.

Samantha Slabb’s Grateful Acknowl
edgment.
“I hadn’t expected this!” ex
claimed the elderly spinster, with
emotion. “I shall certainly have to
send her something in return.”
Sitting down to her little writing
iesk, she impulsively dashed off the
following note to her distant rela
tive:
‘‘Miss Jane Squallop —Madam:
You may have thought you had dis
guised your handwriting, but I rec
ognized it the moment I saw the en
velope, and I knew what it con
tained even before I opened it. A
woman that will wreak her spite
against another woman by sending
her a comic valentine is a despicable
person, and all the meaner for doing
it in such a sneaking, anonymous
way. 1 have the honor to be, madam,
yours with mighty little respect, Sa
mantha Slabb.

Whereas it has pleased God to re
move from our midst our late brother,
Dr. Emmett E. Dixon, and,
Whereas the official relations long
held by our deceased brother with this

that we should place on record our
appreciation of his services and his
merits as a man; therefore be it,
Resolved, that these resolutions be
entered upon the minutes of this con

sent to the family of our deceased
brother. E. P. Chambers,

This getting up every night
with the baby, or some of the
older children, is all wrong.
Not that the children are to
blame. If he’s the baby, prob
ably his food is wrong. Vinol
will help his mother stand the
strain of nursing.
We have often seen whole
families of older children who
keep the parents awake o’
nights. First one, then the
other is ailing.
These children seem well
enough at times; but they are
white, hollow-eyed, often list
less, with irregular appetites,
peevish and fretful, wakeful at
night and constantly taking cold.
The use of Vinol, in conjunc
tion with Vinlax to regulate the
bowels, will benefit these child
ren almost in a day.
There is nothing in Vinol that
can nurt them. It is pleasant
to take. If it doesn’t do the
work, we will give you the
money back.
