Z-tt Atlanta, Jan. 23.—With the open ing of the new year, the coming in auguration of Governor Slaton, and the approaching 1913 session of the State Legislature, Georgia is facing a series of interesting financial prob lems, the chief of which is the re tirement of the $3,392,000 of state bonds which fall due in 1915. The most important part of the Governor’s message will deal with the state’s finances, and the appro priations for the next two years, in- cllding some provision for meeting | the bonds, will be the most impor- • tant duty this summer of the gen- |eral assembly. I Georgia's total bonded indebted ness amounts to $6,834,202, of which j half, approximately, falls due in 11913. As the state has only a $ 100,- 1000 annual sinking fund to take care of the bonded debt, some spe- ic’al provision will have to be made, land it is understood that that new bonds will be made io refund the | old issue. There is a provision of ithe Constituion which says Georgia (shall not Issue new bonds to in- i crease the bonded indebtedness of • Ithe state, but it leaves the legislature IX)ST—Thursday night, either at, . , , •Country Club or between there,IrlRht in case of necessity to .and town, a diamond crescent i make new issues to refund bonds brooch.

M, tosh and myself did not help Scipline of the school. 1 I am fully aware of the fact that ithe publication of cards of this char acter will show to all wherein they have been imposed upon, and let ithe parents see wherein the health I of their children is being injured. I tried to avoid this course o* ac tion ami appealed first, to the Sup erintendent. then to the School Hoard, and in each instance .ny ap peals were denied. Had my request (had due consideration no cards would have appeared. I called upon the Superintendent and stated to him that my oldest lit tle girl, who is just nine years old, had been kept in practically every day for a month not for any misde meanor, but merely for having been excused for necessary purposes. I asked that the rule of punish ing children for being excused, for necessary purposes, be suspended, not only for my child but for all the <hildren of the school. The Superlntendetffc stated that he did not know what rules were being enforced along this line, but would investigate. / I requested that this investigation be made at once and h’s decision given me within two days. On the second day I called at the Superintendent’s office and asked the result of his Investigation. The reply was: “I have instructed for the pupils not to be kept In for the first offence, but after that to be required to make up the time.’’ Kindly note the word OFFENSE be ing applied to the act of a little child responding to the calls af na ture. 1 promptly stated that I would nui stand for this, that the short recess allowed but twenty-two seconds to each child and that the noon recess, (after deducting ten minutes for marching out and in.) allowed but one minute and twenty seconds to each pupil, and that under these cir cumstances the privilege of being excused but once was certainly In sufficient. In the card of the Superintendent great appeal for the school as a corporate body, but I all- fail to note any reference, whatever, HOARDERS WANTED AT I*I\E. l-ation, so that all classes will boar 10 t! ’ e rare of thc POyaliuI condition HI RST AMO.VCi TIIE PINES.

The park police were equally sore. “If you had killed one of them,’’ the keeper of animals told him, “I would have seen you on the chain- gang. if I had to employ a lawyer with my own money to help convict you.” But since his bullets hit nothing.

Soule, President of the State College of Agriculture, at Ath ens, has Interested the Federal Gov ernment In the matter cf conduct- iiig a breeding demonstration ex periment in this state, at the Agri cultural College, calculated to show the merit of thd different breeds, and to illustrate to the [eople of Georgia, the possibilities in this in* dustry. Dr. Soule, who is a most enthu siastic and instructive talker, deliv ered a most interesting address on the subject, before the recent an nual meeting of the Cotton Seed Crushers’ Association of Georgia, In which he urged the members of that organization to lend every effort to wards securing a better grade of beef cattle, for cattle raising in Georgia. The Federal Government has con tributed toward the fuud, for the purpose named above, and the State College of Agriculture at Athens will supplement the funds donated by maintaining these animals, look ing after their record, supplying the pasturage, feed, equipment for the j work and giving the State,at large j the benefit of the demonstration. !

Atlanta, Jan. 23.—The whole North Georgia peach crop for 1913 budded and was killed this morning! Gentle reader, be not too sorely d stressed, even though you love peaches mor« than any other fruit. The budding did not occur on the peach-trees. Nor did the killing. Both sad events occurred In the minds of agricultural experts timorous nature; In the noodles of reporters and editors anxious for a bit of sensational and readable news to they -budded and killed off the peach crop. Of course this ruthless slaughter of the fair Elberta takes place every, season, yet she survives. Of course there Is some little element of truth In the reports. In a few Isolated in stances, the unseasonably warm weather Is making the trees to bud prematurely. But that is all. This same complete slaughter occurred last year in .February. Pitiful little peach blossoms, pink and frozen, were plucked of? Atlanta trees, and photographs of them were solemnly printed In the papers. But when the real peach season came, there was one of the finest crops Georgia has ever had.

The3e are mathematical facts and the absurdi ty of those minute spaces of time be. lag sufficient for the accomodation of the children needs no comment. It is evident that the Superinten dent is unaware of the extent to which this Imposition has been car ried, as I have in my possession the names of numerous parents who state that their children had been refused the privilege of being ex cused, and that the children had re turned home In a deplorable condi tion. There is an instance occurred since Christmas, where the teacher positively refused excuse the child, although the quest was made urgently and I peated three times at the ago of understanding might discern between ‘‘paying back,’’ and a punishment, but a children under twelve years old has not a mind suf ficiently developed to draw this hair-splitting distinction. Again, if the ‘ paying baek’» is not a punish ment why should the child be re quired to pay back with double the time consumed by it while it was ex cused? It is known to all who have had the training of children that to pun ish a <hild unjustly, hardens the sensibilities of the child and gives it a disregard for all rules.
