2 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1913. Cottolene makes delicious biscuit ROCKVILLE ACADEMY, GEORGIA'S FIRST STANDARD RURAL SCHOOL - Cottolene “creams up” so beautifully that it makes deli cious biscuits—light, flaky, ufree from grease and soggi- ~ness. They almost,melt in your mouth. Cottolene is the perfect shortening—a vegetable pro- ' duct without the possible taint of animal fat It is far better and more wholesome than lard. It vail give equally as good shortening results as butter, and Cottolene is usu ally one-third butter’s price. Here’s an other econo my point: Cottolene, being richer, use one-third less than eith er butter or lard. THE N. K. FAIRBANK COMPANY Famous Country School in Putnam County, 11 Miles From a Railroad Station, Is the First to Qualify Under the New Efficiency Standard Prepared by State Superintendent of Education M, L, Brittain—Its Enrollment Includes Over 98 Per Cent of the Children in the District STATE COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE PLANS TWO DAYS’ FARMERS’ MEET Extension Agricultural School Opens at Cedartown Febru ary 26-Meetings for Ladies and Girls—All Will Be Wel- come-Your Presence Will Be Needed f COMBS WON'T ACCEPT A Chairman of Democratic Com mittee Declines Place in Wilson's Cabinet BT RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—There is a whole lot being said and guessed in this neck - of the woods about the fu ture of William F. McCombs, National Chairman of the Democratic party by grace of President-elect Wilson. Most of this guessing has had to do with the question whether he would be come a member of the Wilson cabinet that is soon to be announced. It is stated definitely and»specifical ly now that Mr. McCombs will not be a member of the cabinet. President elect Wilson, recognizing the work of Mr. McCombs on his behalf, both be fore and after the Baltinmre conven tion, has offered him a cabinet port folio. The governor, it is stated here, has Mr. McCombs declination. Just why ■ nou accept the tender is Znot known, for a certainty. There -have been a number of reasons advanc ed, but they lack the stamp of author ity. Georgians who are familiar with the history of Rockville academy—and they are scattered all over the state, many of the former graduates of this school being numbered among the leading edu cators and professional men of this grand old commonwealth—will not be surprised to learn that it wjfts the first of the rural schools to reach Jhe stand ard prescribed last year by the state board of education. A handsome certificate, indicating that Rockville academy has attained the degree of proficiency and efficiency necessary to qualify it as a standard school has just been mailed to Hon. W. C. Wright, superintendent of the Putnam county schools, by Hon. M. L. Brittain, state superintendent of schools, and along with the certificate, which is inscribed “No. 1,” go letters of congrat ulation from Superintendent Brittain to Superintendent Wright and to Prof. F. G. Branch, principal of the Rockville academy. It is a real honor that has been won by the Rockville academy, which has long been the pride of Putnam county. This fact is appreciated when it is known that Georgia is the second state to adopt a standard for its rural schools —Illinois being the first—and Rock ville acadenw th© first school in Geor gia to attain this standard. Rockville academy is a “truly rural” school, being located eleven miles from Eatonton, which is the nearest railroad station. Twenty-two years ago, when Prof. Branch took charge of it, this school was housed in a commonplace two-room structure and was doing but indifferent work in what was known as the “dark corner” of Putnam county. Many of the school’s patrons in those days could not rekd and write, others could barely do so, while a minority had such education as had been acquired in the old field schools operating for a few months in the year. There were only five persons in the district who had ever attended college and two of these were ladies. Since that time the community has progressed until now the country round ^bout is settled with dozens and dozens 7 of college graduates and retirement and culture are found on every hand. In address before the state asso ciation of county school commissioners and boards of educators at Athens, Prof. H. R. Dejarnette gave the following interesting comparison of the work of AMERICAN SHOT BY MEXICAN SENTINEL Agent of Los Angeles District I Attorney's Office Dying in - Mexic Bastile (By Asscoiated Press.) SAN DIEGO, Cal., Feb. 11.—Roy E. -Rankin, agent of the Los Angeles coun- pty district attorney’s office who was shot at Tijunia, Saturday night, is said - by his physician to have only a fight- - ing chance for recovery. He is still held J by the Mexican authorities at Tijunia. Guy L. Rockwell, from the same office, is with Rankin, but is not under ar rest. It developed today that the two men j^went to the Mexican settlement on a T^secret mission for S. D. Fredericks, *^the Los Angeles county district at torney. *! United States Consul Guyant left for 'Ensana by steamer last night. He de clared he would make a formal demand on the governor of Lower California for the immediate release of Rankin. Rankin and Rockwell adhere to their story that the shooting was unprovok ed. The Mexican version as related t>y • Marquez, the soldier under arrest, is that when he challenged them as a sentry, they were abusive and that 'Rockwejl ktiocked him down, took his rifle and threw it away. Marquez says .that Rockwell and Rankin then ran '^away. He recovered his gun and fired ■Cthe shot that struck Rankin. A DIFFERENCE It Paid This Man to Change Food “What is called ‘good living’ even tually brought me to a condition quite -the reverse of good health,” writes a Y. merchant. Z “Improper eating told on me till my stomach became so weak that food nau seated me, even the lightest and sim- * .pleat lunch, and I was much depressed after a night of uneasy slumber, unfit ting me for business. “This condition was discouraging, as I could find no way to improve it. Then 1 saw the advertisement of Grape Nuts food, and decided to try it, and became delighted with the result. “For the past three years I have used Grape-Nuts and nothing else for my breakfast and for lunch before re tiring. It speedily set my stomach right and I congratulate myself that I have regained my health. There is no greater comfort for a tired man than a lunch of Grape-Nuts. It insures restful V"sleep, and an awakening in the morning with a feeling of buoyant courage and hopefulness. “Grape-Nuts has been a boon to my whole family. It has made of our 2 year-old boy, who used to be unable to digest much of anything, a robust, healthy, little rascal weighing 32 pounds. Mankind certainly owes a debt of grati tude to the expert who invented this : perfect food.” Name given by Postum • Co., Battle Creek, Mich. “There’s ; a reason.” Ever read the above letter?

AMERICANS FLEE AS ' THE BATTLE RAGES Fire of Artillery Continues All Day, With No Advantage on Either Side (By Associated Press.) CARS ORDERED READY TO TRANSPORT TROOPS SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Feb. 12.—The Union Pacific railroad has been advised to hold suffi cient equipment on hand to take troops from here to Galveston on short notice. Coaches, stock- cars and freight cars are now being gathered In the local yards. Estimates are that 186 cars will be needed in case troops are sent from here to Galves ton. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦ »♦ »»»♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ MEXICO CITY, Feb. 12.—An Ameri can woman named Mrs. Homes was killed while the battle was raging at 2 o’clock this afternoon. Both lege of another American woman, a Mrs. Griffith, were shot off while she was preparing dinner in her home which was in line with th e fed eral firing. MEXICO CITY, Feb. 12.—Americans and other foreigners living in the Mex ican capital found themselves' in a desperate situation today. The foreign residential and commercial district lay in the direct line of artillery fire from both rebel and federal positions. AMERICANS IN TRAP. Many people who had taken refuge in the more important buildings found themselves penned in while heavy shells whistled about them, tearing through walls and roofs. The cable offices were severely damaged by shrap nel and it was feared that communica tion with the outside world might be temporarily cut off. > All surrounding streets were occupi ed by troops and throughout the morn ing the whir of the machine guns was continuous while infantrymen kept up a constant rifie fire. NO ADVANTAGE YET. Neither side gained any perceptible advantage up to noon, when plans for a conference between the leaders of the rebels and representatives of the gov ernment were takenu p for discussion, at the national palace after a visit to Madero by the American ambassador and the German minister. CRIMINALS FREED. From the Madero point of view, two of the most serious of the day’s de velopments were the releasing by rebels of 5,000 criminals from the city prison, and the arrival In the city of Alfonso Miranga, one of Zapatista s lieutenants, with a band of 300 soldiers who are said to have plotted the wholesale loot ing of the capital. FOOD SCARCE. Meanwhile the scarcity of provisions is already causing suffering among the poorer classes. Ordinary food is obtain able only in small quantities and then at prices from five to ten times the usual rate. AMERICAN DEMANDS PEACE. The United States ambassador, Henry Lane Wilson, and the German minister went to the national palace this after noon to demand from President Madero • that the battle cease immediately. Plans for a conference between the leaders of the rebel-s and representa tives of the government were taken into discussion at the national palace shortly after noon. CONFERENCE CALLED OFF. Hopes of a conference soon diminished. There was a cessation of firing but this appeared to be due to a change in the federal positions, and was regarded by the federals as a trick to draw them out. ' The bulk of the government troops are stationed in the northwestern part of the city. the Rockville academy for the vears 1891 and 1909: 98 PER CENT ENROLLMENT. Through its effective work the Rock ville academy has enrolled more and more of the pupils in its vicinity until last year more than 98 per cent of the children in its district were in school, a record surpassing that of any city or town in the state. This academy has three teachers, including the principal. The patrons of the school willingly sub mit to extra taxation in order that the institution may continue its excellent work throughout nine months of each year. Perhaps the most important thing which Mr. Brittain has done since he became state superintendent of schools two years ago was to prepare a stand ard for rural schools and secure its adoption by the state board of educa tion. This standard is designed to show the patrons of the schools and the public generally, as well as the school officials, just what the schools are doing and whether or not they ar e giving value received for the money expended upon them. STANDARD PRESCRIBED. This standard for measuring the effi ciency of the country schools is embrac ed under seven heads and is as follows: I. THE TEACHER. 1. Good teaching. 2.

Here fs a Simple Way of Cor recting it Instantly Before it Becomes Chronic Very few people go through life with out some time or other being troubled with constipation. Thousands injure themselves by the use of strong ca thartics, salt mineral waters, pills and similar things. They have temporary value in some cases, it is true, but the good effect is soon lost, and the more one takes of them the less effective they become. A physic or purgative is seldom neces sary, and much better and more per manent results can be obtained by using a scientific remedy like Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It does not hide behind a high sounding name, but is what it is represented to be, a mild laxative medi cine. It is so mild that thousands of mothers give it to tiny infants, and yet it is compounded, and contains such definite ingredients that it will have equally good effect when used by a per son suffering from the worst chronic constipation. In fact, among the great est endorsers of Syrup Pepsin are eld erly people who have suffered for years and found nothing to benefit them until they took Syrup Pepsin. It is a fact that millions of families have Syrup Pepsin constantly in the house, homes like those of Mrs. G. B. Pruitt, Berea, Ky., who used Dr. Cald well’s Syrup Pepsin as a laxative tonic. Mrs. Pruitt writes that it so strength ened and cleansed her system that she was quickly relieved of a severe cough which had troubled her for months. The special, value of this grand laxative ton ic is that it is suited to the needs of every member of the family. It is Calhoun Farmers to Meet (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)

Unlike harsh physics it works gradually and in a very brief time the stomach and bowel muscles are trained to do their work naturally again, when all medicines can be dispensed with. You can obtain a bottle at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar. The latter size is usually bought by families who already know its value. Results are always guaranteed or money will be refunded. If no member of your family has ever used Syrup Pepsin and you would like to make a personal trial of it before buying it in the regular way of a drug gist, send your address—a postal will do—to Dr. W.
