LOUISVILLE ASKED
TO COOPERATE
Highway Should Come in
This Direction—City Ap
pealed to.
The following letter has been re
ceived by Mr. R. V. Harris, chair
man of the Highway Committee of
the Louisville Kiwanis Club.
Abbeville, Ga., June 12, 1925.
To the City of Louisville:
The Abbeville Chamber of Com
merce wishes to call your attention
to a matter of considerable civic
interest to both of us a matter that
we hope will enlist your immediate
and hearty co-operation.
As we presume you are aware, the
Jefferson Davis Highway Associa
tion of which Mr. I. Gelders, of Fitz
gerald, is secretary, is laying out.
“logging,"’ posting, advertising, and
generally promoting a great memo
rial highway through the Southern
States, from coast to coast, to be
known as The Jefferson Davis High
way. It is to be a highway of na
tional importance, and to be nation
ally known.
One branch of this highway leads
from Abbeville eastward to Savan
nah, and is already adopted. It is
proposed to run another branch from
some point on this route, northward
to Augusta ami thence to Richmond,
Ya., but the route of the highway to
Augusta has not been determined.
Mount Vernon, Yidalia, Lyons, Reids
ville, and other cities, are clamoring
to have the Augusta branch begin at
their respective cities, and run north
ward through Swainsboro, or Gray
inont and Millcn to Augusta; and
their citizens arc actively at work to
this end. YVe admire their enter
prise and civic aspirations, hut we
do not agree with them on the route.
We suggest to you that the logical
route for the Augusta Branch of this
Highway is from Abbevile to Kast
man, to Dublin, to Wrightsvillc. to
Louisville, to Augusta, and thence to
Richmond, —practically a straight
line. This would take a sharp “el
bow” out of the highway and, in ad
dition to serving tin; “cross-country”
travel, would also serve a’consider
able bit of traffic in and out of Flo
rida, as it intersects The Dixie High
way here. It would also draw tourist
travel to and from the west coast
of Florida, as it extends through
South-west Georgia. Besides, suen
a highway would he a very great
service to these cities locally.
This is a very great opportunity
for your Civic Organizations to do
something worth-while for your city.
If the cities along this route will
get to work in earnest, w r e are quite
confident we can have this route
• designated-4ts r-.*aeu&km- Qf Tbc Jcf-
I ferson Davis Highway. It is well
| worth our time and effort.
I But we must “get busy” and do
something. Take this up with your
civic organizations and let us hear
from you at once if you are inter
ested.
Yours for progress.
Abbeville Chamber of Commerce,
By N. M. Patten. Chairman.
SCHOOL NOTES
The following extract is taken
from an address by J. O. Martin,
State School Supervisor, delivered
before the Georgia Education Asso
ciation, April 20, 1923.
“Of a total of 4821 schools in Geor
gia, 2166 or 45 per cent are one teach
er schools and 3570 or 75 per cent
are one and two-teacher schools.
It is estimated of a total enrollment
of 44>5821 school children that 108,-
300 or 25 per cent are one teacher
schools and 200,000 or fifty per cent
are in the one and two-tehcher
schools. This simply means that
the majority of the schools are not
functioning in the desired purposes.
The daily schedule in the one
teacher schools calls for about 35
to 45 recitations periods each day.
This means that each class must re
ceive 8 to 10 minutes from the teach
er. Multiply this time (10 minutes)
by the number of classes (4) and we
have 40 minutes, the time each child
recites during the entire day. Cal
culate and you find that they are
under the direct instruction of the
teacher during a period of six
months only 14 days. During mos 4
of the remainder of the time the
child sits in idleness.”
I am glad to say that Jefferson
County is making as much progress
towards consolidation as any Coun
ty in the state, but we still have
several one and two teacher schools
that the above statement from Mr.
Martin fits like the paper on the
wall. Our only hope lies in consoli
dation then we will have better
buildings and equipment, better
trained teachers with possibility of
the teachers being kept for a longer
period of time at the same school.
Longer term, longer recitation per
iod, more grades w’here needed, and
more time for the development of
the child along physical as well as
mental lines.

DEWBERRIES SHIPPED
IN CARLOTS
New and Profitable Crop
Open to Jefferson County
Farmers.
On June 12th Messrs. B. P. Ram
sey and C. V. Clark shipped the
first car load of I.ucrctia Dewberries
from Jefferson County. This car
was shipped from McGruder and
fconsigned to the Georgia Dewberry
Growers Association in New York
for sale. This car of dewberries
was made by Mr. Clark and Mr.
Ramsey on ten acres of ground on
their farms about eight miles from
I.ouisville in Jefferson County.
During the early part of 1921
Messrs. Clark and Ramsey became
interested in the dewberry crop and
went to North Carolina to observe
and investigate the growing of dew
berries for the market. They came
back and in March 1921 they plant
ed ten acres of sandy loam land in
dewberries.
At the beginning of this season
their crop looked very promising
and as early at the middle of May
they were able to ship by express
as many as 100 crates a day. All
of their shipments have been made
through the Georgia Dewberry
Growers Association and excellent
prices have been obtained up to
date.
On the 12th day of June they were
able to make their first large ship
ment and loaded a solid car con
signed for the Northern Markets.
Mr. Clark and Mr. Ramsey are well
pleased with the yield obtained by
them during their first year and
find that the quality of the berries
compares very favorable with those
raised in North Carolina and other
dewberry sections.
In a letter to Messrs. Clark and
Ramsey the manager of the Georgia
Dewberry Association has this to
say: “We take this opportunity of
congratulating von on the astonish
ing good showing you are making
in seceuring so many berries from
such a small acreage which beats
any grower in the association.” . . .
“Many growers with a much larger
acreage are not getting nearly so
many berries as you are altho their
fruit is most excellent.”
The Georgia Dewberry Growers
Association was formed early in
1922 for the handling of the Lucre
tia Dewberry Crop of the members
in Georgia. Every grower in Geor
gia becoming a member of the asso
ciation and the association has been
very successful in marketing the
berries at a profitable price.
Messrs. Clark and Ramsey have
increased their acreage in dewber
ries and together with other who
have planted dewberries expect to
ship a carload a day during the
picking season next year. From the
interest and success that dewberry
growers have developed it is ex
pected that Louisville will supplant
South Georgia as the center of the
industry in Georgia, and it is quite
likely that the State of Georgia will
supplant North Carolina and Vir
ginia in the growing of this crop.
SUPERIOR COURT HOLDS
SESSION
The extra session of the Superior
Court was called to order Mondav
morning by Judge R. N. Hardeman
for the hearing of such matters as
might be disposed of without a
jury.
T. Y. Smith and Frank Harde
man, asc receivers of the Farmers’
State Bank of Bartow, submitted
their final report, which showed
that already the creditors and de
positors had been paid 50 per cent
of their claims. It also showed
that they had on hand at the time
approximately .$20,000 in cash. On
the order was granted directing the
receivers to distribute this amount
which will make a total paid to
creditors and depositors of approx
imately 70 per ceint.
The settlement of the criminal
prosecution of W. C. Marion in con
nection with the Jefferson County
Bank and the suit against the bond
company on Mr. Marian’s bond fail
ed to go through. Mr. Marian of
fered to plead guilty of fraudulent
bank insolvency promised he would
be punished as for a misdemeanor,
The prosecution refused to agree to
this and Judge Hardeman stated
from the bench that he could not
accept a plea on that condition un
less agreed to by both sides.
