These games will bring here teams from the leading col leges and Universities of the south, east and H,orth. In fact no schedule ever arranged by a southern col lege had so many colorful diamond games as does the Georgia schedule offer for this year. Following the game Wednesday is the opening game of the year Thursday against the University of Pennsylvania. Athens has no better medium of advertising than the athletic teams representing the University; there is no other agency perhaps that-brings so many visi tors and so much trade to Athens as these athletic Events, especially baseball and footbalj. In addi tion, a form of amusement is afforded of the highest type. It is always a pleasure to see the finest ath letes of the country contest in wholesome sport as do the high types oi young manhood participating in the games here. The sportsmanship is also of the highest type and it.behpoves the people of Athens to attend these games,’to encourage them and to boost them. > From a purely selfish pecuniary standpoint their success means much to the city. It should not be said'that these games are supported more by pat ronage outside of the city than from within. These games are something that all Athens feels a pride in, or should and it would be most appropriate to make the game against Pennsylvania Thursday a gala lyent and swell the attendance to the stands’ capaci- "ty and show by the act of attending the game that Athens does realize ,the great importance of these athletic events and will support them as they de- EORGIA’S CORNER ON SWEET POTATOES ‘th 838,027 bushels of sweet potatoes reported hand, Georgia curing houses on March 1st, A very full report from Georgia shows approxi- 15 per cent less potatoes on hand than on 1 a year ago, or 19 per cent less in the com- ~ storage houses, which now. have on hand for jit about 800,000 bushels out of the total 828,- bushels reportad. - In the northern part of the and in the west central division, » where , com- ial dweet potatoes are being tried out, the ount of potatoes cn hand is much greater, than last and they are being hfeld much longer than in. jlder southern sections. In the old established iwest district there is some decrease in holdings, ie south central districts having one-third of the " otal storage capacity, and in the southeast, both Ich sections plunged heavily on sweet potatoes ; season, there is a comparatively small supply band now.” ile Europe’s politicians shadow-box for effect ir audience, Europe’s people continue rebuild- i damages of war.

Martin la on the right line in hie advocacy of eonsolidat- ed schools for county and city. Foe a number of years the Banner- Herald has advocated the country ,mit system and it believes that iur people will yet adopt the ays- ,em. Such a system would give to the child in the rural districts the tame advantages ns are now en joyed by the child in the town oi "ity where there Bre public school systems. Clarke county should by ail means adopt the unit system, it is not a large county in area and the city’s graded and high schools would be thrown open to all children of the county. Mr. Martin is doing a splendid Work in advocating the county ' unit sys tem which we hope to see establish- «1 in this county nt no distant lay. The passing of Sarah Bern- ’ hardt removes from the world its greatest exponent of make- believe life on the stage- She lad no equal in her Ifce. aftd for I years she has enjoyed a rank in the theatrical profession without a peer. Her going will bfingtsad ness and sorrow to thousands up on thousands jn practically every nation of the world. She wa« known, admired and loved by the public and her great talents were given for the entertainment and benefit of those in qll walks of life. The “divine” Sarah desired to 'die in hpp|;ess—ithat is—while actively engaged in her work pro ducing and erecting parts in nlavs for which theft* wsa ah much de- mahd.
