HOW ROYAL CHILDREN
ARE BEING BROUGHT UP
Great Care is Exercised by Parents in the Rearing of
Their Children. Royal Children Have Their Pecu
liarities as Well as Those of Other People
and They Sometimes Show Them.

In a few cases they are children of
the sovereign. oftener they are
grandchildren or nephews In the
ease of Sweden there is a great-
grandson.
The most pathetic of the childless
courts is that of Holland. In Aus
tria and Portugal the ultimate living
heirs are youn*g men still unmar
ried.
The doubtful case is Turkey. The
“Aimanach re Gotha” give no par
ticulars as to the domestic status of
Selim Effendi. the Sultan's eldest
son. Hut he is 37. and it is highly
probable that be is childless.
As a rule, efforts are made to
bring royal children up simply and
modestly and to shield their nursery
life from the gaze, but it is inevita
ble that a great many details leak

brief life of four years is Olaf.

One tells of the appeal of a poor
woman, tire widow of an officer who
fell in Cuba, for an increase of pen
sion. She had repeatedly made ap
plication through the ordinary chan

hit on the* device of addressing a
memorial to his royal highness, Al
fonso, heir apparent of Spain.
The letter was opened by the
prince's Sj-<-re : ary - he has a whole

Work on the country roads for the;
present year has been pnuctically ;
finished. Of course there will he;
some \vo)k done as weather may |
permit, but the active proseeuiion!
of the work of road improvement j
will necessarily be put off until the I
opening of the spring. I
Still this work will be pushed
wherever it can be done profitably,
even in the winter, for the county
road force under the direction of
Mr. William S. Holman, a member
of the county commission ami super
intendent of ftouri construction, is
never idle.
Mr. Holman has been very suc
cessful in the work since taking
charge of this part, of the county’s
business. He has given the county
some of its best roads and is pre
paring to continue the work with
even greater success and rapidity
next year.
Thus far the road from »lu* city
limits to the Seaboard crossing on j
the Jefferson road has been m:ic;*da-l
mized: the Princeton mad has b •**n
macadamized from the lop of Lump- 1 ,
kin hill to Princeton factory ih* j
Mitchell’s bridge road has been ma
cadamized from the State Normal!
School some distance into the conn- !
try; Lumpkin street has been paved i
with Belgian block from the lanyard |
branch to the top of the hill and!
some distance of road has *» *»u im
proved from Princeton bridge to the
old papear mill, and from the Sea
board bridge on the Jefferson road
to the county line.
Mr. Holman is satisfied that by :
the proper mixture of sand and
•ounty it will do better than the
macadam road.
The county has purchased several
small road working machines, some
what similar to the machine owned
by the city but smaller in size. With
these machines the country roads
can be worked much more efficiently
and satisfactorily than in the past,
and at less cost. The new system of
collecting so much per capita for
road tax and paying for the working
of the roads instead of leaving it to
the farmers and citizens of the rural
districts themselves to work the
roads will prove to he beneficial.
1 * is believed that with the re
maining money on hand from the
sale of the county road improvement
bonds at least thirty miles of road
way ran be constructed. It is quite
certain that when the entire sum is
expended, the county of Clarke will
, have the best roads of any county
i in this entire section of the state and
; as good as any county in Georgia.
The commission has not yet de-
1 c'nbd which road will next be im
prove.1. but it will in all probability
i **itl»or be the Lexington road or the
DanieJsvilJe road. It Is the Intention
! of the commission to first attend to
j the main roads leading out from the
:ity to the four adjoining counties.
This has been done as regards Oco
nee and Jackson counties and the
uoads loading to Oglethorpe and
Madison counties will probably be
the ones next attended to.
