Much of the legislation that gets on statute books Is valueless or worse but the Cedar Valley Farmers' Club Is asking Hon. Felton Mundy, of Polk to Introduce a bill In the interest of the farmers of Georgia that should surely paso the Legislature promptly. The birds ure one of the farmers most valuable assets, though this fact is too often not appreciated by them. The temptation to enjoy the sport of killing them, or allowing their friends to do so, Is often too Btrong to be re sisted. and this has resulted In a wholesale and lamentable slaughter of the farmers' best friends. In view of this unfortunate condition of af fairs. the Cedar Valley Farmers’ Club has unauimously passed the following resolutions asking our able Repre sentative to Introduce nnd pass a measure In accordance therewith: — Resolved, Th»t the Increasing de-j Several'af them hav Frost the Simmer School. Athen*. O*., July 11, '07. Dear Standard:— Some young re porter, either from a lack of knowl edge or from an exaggerated sense of gallantry, has in.ormed the general public that 'Col. J. E. Lovvorn was ompanled to the Summer School by nineteen pretty, attractive young lady teachers.” That, of court*, muat be taken with a pinch of salt, as the il lustrious Prof. Hulley says. How ever, In the main he was correct, for we are here; and that seems to be all that really matters to us Just now. We are hero! And while clrcumstan- niake It Impossible for some of us to go further and say, as we'd like to, and here we are going to stay—for several weeks at least,” we are most grateful to the Board and Mr. 1x>y- vorn for their excellent plans, and we heartily believe the trip has been quite as much of a success aa they hoped It would be—its most enthusi astic endorsers. Of course, no one expected us to >me here for one week, and go hack very much better equipped with a practical knowledge of things pedago gical or theories concerning them. But the teacher who has spent this week in Athens and will not go home more thoroughly In love with her work, with her horizon widened, her Ideals made higher and saner, must have spent the time asleep In her room. The very atmosphere of this classic old University town Is wholesome, sweet and penetrating. It Is worth something to the dream r of dreams, at least, to stAnd at the foot of the Toombs' Oak and remember the mythical hut fascinating story of Toombs calling the people from the Impel by his strong, magnetic young voice, and holding them spell-bound by hla matchless eloquence; to sit In the historic old chapel and listen to echoes of volcess of the many who have gone out from there to be our Governors or Senators, our statesmen, our preachers and our teachers. Or perhaps there Is "a nearer one, a dearer one yet than all these,” whose memory has made every Inch of these grounds sacred to us, though he may have been nothing more Illustrious than the captain of a foot-ball team. But echoes are not the only things we have heard in the old chapel. Prof. Lincoln Hulley'a voice Is far from an echo, and I think more than one teacher can testify to the fact that It waa substantial enough to lift her off her seat, especially when he waa "seeing things at night,” and making us see them along with Eugene Field. HU Lecture on "Eugene Field and the Children” ought to be an Inspiration that will last us for years to conie. And our natures must he very spongy indeed if we let all the enthusiasm soak out before we put a little of it Into life. Perhaps some of us will feel less rebel Ho; 8 at having favorites, “Lit tle Boy Blue" and "Hushaby Street" "murdered," as we've brutally called the halting, singsong way some child road them. They ought to be the child's favorite. Field wrote them for the children, not for us. And they would he if we had the great child- loving heart that he had when he wrote them, and would lead thalr halt ing little feet gently Into this world hi has created for them. Instead of letting our nerves, set on hair trig gers, go off every time u child singt ?) a poem. Perhaps theirs is the better Idea after all. Much of Fields' poetry Is music, and If a child sings a little j out of tune, what of It! But I have said quite enough of Prof. Hulley's lectures. To those of U3 who stay only this week, they will necessarily be the leading feature. We will, before the week ends, have heard hIx of them — each one better than the other, and all full to over flowing with a great love of child and child nature. Besides these there have been a great many other things, both inter esting and helpful. If we could spend a whole summer here it would be Im possible to hear all the "best" things. About three hundred teachers rush hurriedly here, and there armed with note book and pencil. It’s to be hoped, however, if any one should lose her note book she won’t lose her educa tion. as the humorous Prof. Smith puts It. Our party won’t, at least, for we’ve had time to make only a few. As I have said before, ours has nec essarily been an absorbing process, j D1 — ' ~ ' ~~ if!
