Cedartown'8 most important Insti tution Is in the midst of the third week of the fall term, and there have been numerous additions to the en rollment. Miss Cora Anthony, of Jonesboro, who has been detained by illness, ar rived Sunday evening to take charge of the Tth and 8th grades, which have been ably taught by Miss Leahnora Bradford pending her arrival. Miss Anthony Is an experienced and high ly capable teacher, and is co.dially welcomed. Miss Mail.ne Bradford assumed charge Monday morning of the new room created by taking the overplus from the 1st and 2d grades. An un fortunate delay in ordering seats puts this room at something of disadvantage, but the early arrival of the desks is earnestly hoped for. Cedartown is happy over the grati fying index to our growth furnished by our public schools, and everybody is pleased at the splendid manner in which our schools have started on the year's work. Prof. Purks is proving exactly the right man in the right place in his conduct of the schools, and at his sug gestion the Board of Education has adopted a regulation that will doubt less aid in encouraging both scholar ship and deportment. The latter Is especially important, for obedience is one of life's greatest lessons. Under the new rule, any pupil from the 3d to the 11th grades who does not fall below 510 In studies or below 100 in dei>ortment, will be excused from final examinations, thus getting out of school a week earlier than the rest at the end of the year. Besides this. The ! Standard will do Its part in en couraging this good work, and will publish the Honor Boll each month. And we hope the children will make it a long one.
