LOT PURCHASED
• FOR NEW HOTEL
Selection Will Permit Double
Facing. Architect to Be Se
lected July 19th.
A lot has been purchased by the
Directors of the Hotel Company on
which to build the new hotel.
The lot which was selected from
the number of lots offered for sale
for this building, is the square fac
ing the Court House on Broad Street
recently owned by Mrs. Cynthia
Gamble. The citizens of the town
and the business men are delighted
with the selection as this will place
'the hotel accessible to all drumers
travelers, and will do much to im
prove the appearance of the business
section-
The location will permit of artis
tic treatment in the way of terraces,
green, lawns and flower gardens.
The fact that a corner lot was se
cured has distinct advantages, as the
Hotel may he entered from Broad
Street or Green St. with a large
court in the rear with entrances on
Green St. and on Seventh St., where
cars may be parked. The lot has
much natural beauty and is made
more desirable by the presence of
many, large old oak trees of the type
for which Louisville owes much of
her stately loveliness.
The spot on which the Hotel will
Stand is of some historical interest
and faces the spot on which the Ya
zoo Fraud papers were burned. When
Louisville was the capital of the
State, the Brown House stood on this
site, and it was here that the States
men stopped when transacting busi
ness at the capital. Historic tales
brought down from father to son.
tell of many distinguished balls giv
en here when courtly gentlemen in
knee breaches and lavender top
coats danced the minuette with dain
ty ladies clad in rustly silks and
Stiff satins. The hope has been ex
pressed that the architect may intro
duce into his plans for a modern
up-to-date hotel, a suggestion of the
subdued gracefulness of the collonial
period.
The committee in charge of build
ing arrangements have decided to
postpone the selection of an archi
tect until July nineteenth, on which
date the matter will he settled and
decided upon from the prospective
drawings given by the architects who
are interested.

SAYS HE WILL TAKE
LAW ini OWN HANDS
If He Finds Parties Guilty of
“Poison Pen’’ Letters and
Annoying Calls Declares
Chicago Man.
Chicago, July 3.—Dr. Burton M.
Mack declared today he would take
the law in his own hands if he
found before the authorities did the
person guilty of “poison pen” let
ters and annoying telephone calls
with which he and his wife have
been bombarded within the last
three years-
The latest menace to the Mack
household came last Saturday after
the birth of a baby at the Mack
home. Someone telephoned a news
paper what purported to he a no
tice of the death of Dr. Mack and it
was published.
The physician said he had com
plained to the police and federal
authorities.
Dr. Mack declared that if he
could lay his hands on the author
of 32 letters and 209 telephone calls
directed against him and his wife
and their domestic happiness within
the last three years, he would “break
his or her neck.”
Mrs. Mack, with anew baby by
her side, nearly collapsed Saturday
when someone telephoned the house
asking about the report that Dr.
Mack was dead.
Last March a letter which the
physician believes was written by
a woman, threatened to kill the
Mack baby girl, Patricia on the 29th
of the month.
On the night of March 29th. Dr.
Mack says, a brick was thrown
through a window of his homo, nar
rowly missing Patricia and another
child in the house. Other letters
have flooded Dr. Mack's mail as
well as lhat of his wife, intimat
ing that the physiciau was familiar
with another woman.
Dr. Mack, who is married the sec
ond time, declared the attacks upon
him in his opinion, are efforts to
destroy his domestic life.

SCHOOL NOTES
The following extract is taken
from an address of Dr. M. M. Parks
State School Superintendent before
the Atlanta Parent Teachers Asso
ciation on September 6, 1922.
The constitution of the United
States should be studied by every
student from the seventh grade up.
The Consttution is the supreme law
of the land. It consists of only sev
en articles and nineteen amend
ments. It is the greatest contribu
tion ever made by the human intel
lect to the science of government
and the welfare of men. How many
today think and vote according to
constitutional principles, instead of
according to the dogmas of parties,
or the dictates of politicians, or the
propaganda of designing promoters.
Yes we need to teach the Consti
tution in our schools until every stu
dent of sufficient maturity knows
more of the “Supreme Law of the
Land.” A simple short bill requir
ing instruction in the Constitution
of the United States in all state col
leges high schools, and in the grad
uating classes of the elementary
schools would be desirable.
Already seventeen states have
passed a law requiring the I'nited
States Constitution to be taught and
seventeen other legislatures are now
considering the matter.
Judge Price Gilbert in March, 1923.
gave out a statement that he had
prepared a bill for introduction in
the legislature, prescribing the teach
ing of the Constitution. This brings
to the support of the government the
force and influence of a groat .jurist.
Thus the interest grows, and in a
few years it is hoped that all school
graduates of Georgia may have a
greater knowledge and a greater ad
miration for the Constitution.

County School Superintendent.

first days session of the annual con

ator George’s address was mainly
on good government, in which he
earnestly appealed to the members
of the American Legion to uphold
: and foster the system of good gov
| eminent that the people of the I’ni
ted States now enjoy, telling them
that above all else try with all their
might to keep down the doctrine that
: some misguided people in the coun
' try were spreading and which is
; gradually seeping into the ranks of
the workers, a doctrine that would
overthrow our present system and
establish a government that would
be worse than that of Russia. He
appealed to them to always bear in
mind the cause for which they
fought for and died for; for them
to take more of an active part in
the welfare of our country and aid
in its quidance for a better country.
The speaker was roundly applauded
and was congratulaed warmly for
his wonderful address.

' enlisted men to join the reserve
I forces of our country. E. L. Cocke,

P. T. A. NOTES
PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY.
Several centuries ago, parents
were advised to “train up a child in
the way it should go.” This advice
holds good todav. yet how man'
parents know what this “way is, and.
knowing the “way,” how many are
wise enough to so train the child
that he will go that “way”?
We are working over time that
phrase, “parental responsibility.”
Why keep on telling parents to meet
their responsibilities, when countless
numbers do not know what these
children of their have a right to re
ceive at their hands? If your asso
ciation is not meeting its responsi
bility. in this direction, training par
ents in parenthood, it is “Not Func
tioning as it should.' it has been
said by an authority, “that no girl
ever went wrong and staid wrong
who had the right type of a father
for a pal,” and the same is equally
true of Hie hoy whose mother is his
pal. Right types in Parenthood, is
another slogan for P. T. A.
