The Standard recently published a strong letter from Mias Cal lie Byrd urging the importance and necessity of aome special educational work in Cedartowm’a suburbs, and we were more than glad to supplement this letter with our editorial endorsement. We offered the suggestion that some effort be made to secure a part of the $22,000,000 which John D. Rockefeller U giving to the cause of education, and we hope to see this plan finally adopted. In fact, a work is now being started which will put us in a position to ask this with some hope of success. Some consecrated ladies are under taking the task of opening both a day and night school west of town for the benefit of factory’ operatives and their children, and the Cedartown Cotton and Export Co. is generously giving them the use of a building and furnishing it with seats for this purpose. The work is if charge of Mias Laura J.Hays, of Hayston. Ga., a re presentative of the Woman’s Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal church.and for twenty years a missionary under its auspices. The plan la to make the school undenomi national. and have, it supported in part by the contributions of the lo cal Home Mission Societies of the various churches. A part of the ne- eaaary funds is already pledged by the mill operatives who appreciate the great benefit U will prove to them and their families. Miss Lula Avery .of Westfield. Mass, arrived Thursday to be with Mias Hays In this work, and these ladles are now holding revival meetings every evening at the Congregational church. Both are interesting speak ers and earnest workers. Misses Hays and Avery expect to open their school May 1st. at the close of the public school term. The night school will be especially for adults, and will be held from 7 to $ p. m. A part of the plan for "settlement work." which they hope to carry out in the near future, is to provide a ■ placo where mothers can leave their children under wholesome and in-! telligent care while they are at work, i A good corpus of teachers will be pro- j vided at the opening of the school, j Frankly, the work U one which we should have undertaken for our selves. We know of no mission work at home or abroad more vitally irapor-' tant for Cedartown. and we are glad ' to note the spirit of hearty co-opera- 1 tlon manifested by those among whom the school will be located and to j whom it win bring the longed for j opportunity to secure an education. | May God bless and prosper these de- j voted women in their noble work’ BUBAL DELITERT SERVICE. Messrs. Russell A Coleman — Please allow me to thank you for your editorial of last week calling on our people to sustain and build urj our rural free delivery service. | Even before a single route was put In. and ever since, you gentlemen have allowed the use of your columns free of charge for any article In the Interest of the postal service, town or country. As Postmaster of Cedartown and. through the rural routes.of about one hundred square miles of territory, I have found the use of your columns of inestimable value In posting our i*eople just how and what to do to add to the efficiency of our service. In every instance they have responded promptly and freely, and to the har monious co-operation of all concerned we owe our great improvement in every respect over our conditions as they were three years ago. Three years ago we had only five Y rural routes; now we have eight. Ce dartown was a third class office; now I ft has passed up to second class. | Three years ago our receipts were! $5,000 per annum; now they are over $8.0CM. and still climbing. Last quar- ter’s record of nearly $2$*’) shows! that free city delivery and that $50.- 000 public building are almost with-| In our grasp. We have been especially fortunate! in getting new routes, changes ia the I same and. in fact, nearly everything! we ask for. This Is due to the per sonal efforts of Senator Clay. Con-: gressman Lee. and their Secretaries.! Col. Wm. J. Harris and Dr. Wn. Bradford. All of these gentlemen feel a strong personal Interest in our town j and count*, and to my personal ■ knowledge have done their level best to get everything we asked for. As Uncle Sam insists on good pub-! He roads for his rural carriers, roads are an important factor in this ser vice. Our County Commissioners have granted a public road wherever It was i necessary for a rural route to pass ov er It to carry the dally mail to our I people in the country. They have! worked these roads and. from person al inspection ! can state that the30d miles of road which our carriers tra verse every day are better than ever before In the history of Polk county. Our people in the country appreciate the rural service and realise its im portance ns a factor in their future, j They are getting in touch with one another and with the world at largo as never before. This is evidenced by j the fact that nearly every one of our \ eight carriers handles 4.000 pieces of '‘ tmm ^^ ———— , mail per month. .
