Entrance Examination to Toccoa
Public Schools.
On August 27th and 28th exam
inations will be held at the school
building tor the benefit of the fol¬
lowing pupils :
ist Pupils who left the school
last spring term before the time for
final examinations.
2nd Pupils who tried in the fi¬
nal examinations but failed to pass.
3rd New pupils who desire to
enter the school.
By holding these examinations
before school opens pupils may be
given plenty of time to take the
examinations and the teachers
plenty of time to grade and consid-
er the papers handed in.
Pupils will be examined in the
subject preceeding the grade to
which they seek admission; for
example, if the pupil desire to en¬
ter the eighth grade, he will be ex¬
amined in the studies of the seventh
grade.
The examinatious will begin r.t
9 a. m. and will be written.
Any pupil who was conditioned
in certain studies at the close of
last Spring Term will be given, at
the same time, an opportunity of
taking the examination in the sub¬
ject in which he was conditioned.
If his examination is satisfactory
the eondition will be removed and
the pupil promoted in full.
AH pupils holding promotion cards
ars requiredjto bring them the first
morning of school. A failure to
do this may necessitate an exam¬
ination for promotion.

the people of Georgia see and fee! Cures Eczemti itching Humors,
important Changes at Furniture
Factory.
During the 'past few days there
has been several changes in the
stock and officers of the Simmons
Furniture and Lumber Co. Mr.
W. C Mason of Lavonia, Ga.,
and )udge J. B. Jones of this city,
have become stockholders. w. c.
Mason is president ana treasurer,
J. B. Simmons vice-president and
manager, J. B. Jones Secretary.
Mr. D. A. Autrey still owns some
of the stock. J. B. Simmons is
the largest individual stockholder,
and will devote his entire atten¬
tion to the management of the bus¬
iness of the furniture factory.
It is the intention of this company
to largely increase its capital stock
by January ist 1903.
The new president, Mr. W. C.
Mason, is a very successful business
man. He is president of the bank
of Westminster, S. C.. and of La¬
vonia, Ga., and this enterprise, as
well as Toccoa, may congratulate
itself on having him associated with
them.
Fewer schools and better schools.
Hon. W. B. Merrit, nominee for
State School Commissioner, deliv¬
ered an address to the convention
of Georgia editors at Quiteman
last week. Among the many good
things he said and suggestions
madn which shows that he was
thoroughly awake to the needs of
the public school system in Georgia
he made a strong advocacy of car-
rying the children to the school
rather than attempting to carry
the school to the children. This
impressed us as being one of the
greatest of features to consider in
connection with the educational
interests of the state.
It is a potent fact that we have
too many schools for the preset
average kind and by no means
enough of the kind that are needed
to provide anything like adequate
educational advantages to the chil¬
dren. This is an evil that has
gradually grown upon us through
efforts made by the board of edu¬
cation and county commissioners
to satisfy all people. In attempt¬
ing to do this schools have been
granted too freely and doubtless
without due regard to grade of
school that communities could
maintain. This has gone on un¬
til schools have been placed at the
doors of almost every citizen of
the state.
Prof. Merrit believes this to to|a
serious mistake and a great barrier
in the way of the success of the
public school system of the State,
and we aggree with him. He holds
that if they were half the average
number of schools through the
rural districts and they made pro¬
portionately better schools with
provisions made to get the children
living furthest away to them that
the results would be far more
satisfactory to both the school de¬
partment and vastly more so to the
patrons and pupils of the school.
In this he is undeniable right.
Fewer schools and fewer teachers
with better pay would mean more
effiicient teachers and better equip¬
ment of the schools, which would
of course mean better service ren¬
dered the pupils and patrons. Be¬
sides these advantages tne mere fac
of a large number of pupils being
thrown togother in a school is
conductive of good resnlts by in¬
creasing the rivalry and ambition
of each pupil.
Prof, Merrit indicated that he
would strongly advocate this re¬
form in the public school system.
He will doubtless at first meet with
strong opposition for the people of
those communities which will lose
schools by it. but we feel confident
that in the end these will come to
see the wisdom in the change.
This reform has been adopted in
other states and all opposition to it
soon disappeared. We feel sure
shat some changes must be made
somewhere to better our ptrbf-e
school system. This reform Pro¬
posed by the commisioner is one
that can be made without necessi-
fating an increase in the appropri¬
ation for the system. In fact it
would tend to make the present
appropriation adequate to the needs
of the system Only through
it can the grades of our rural pub¬
lic school be raised to what they
should be and they made such as
the educational interests of the
State demand.
We repeat that we heartily agree
with Prof. Merit that the children
should b# carried to good schools
rather than poor and indifferent
schools be carried to the children.—

Attractive Women.
All women sensibly desire to be
attractive. * Beauty is the stamp of
health because it is the outward
manifestation of inner purity. A
healthy woman is always attractive,
bright and happy. When every
drop of blood in the veins is pure a
beautious flush is on the cheek. But
when the blood is impure, morose-
nesss, bad impure and a sallow
complexion tells the tale of sickness,
all too plainly. And women to-day
knows there is no beauty without
health. Wine of Cardui crowns
women with beauty and attractive¬
ness by making strong and healthy
those organs which make her a
woman. Try Wine of Cardui, and
in a month your friends will hardly
know you.
Every newspaper treasures up
in its friends, and likewise its ene¬
mies.It seldom overlooks an oppor¬
tunity to assist the former, but it
never goes out of the was to help
the latter. Human nature is pretty
near alike exerywhere. People
a
who show the newspaper man
kindness never make a better in¬
vestment, or one that will surely
pay a hundred fold sooner or later.
