K. Harper who was editor-in-chief of the School of Journalism issue of the Bnnner-Her- lad Thursday). Each year representatives of the district high schools gather in Athens to compete for state honors. The calendar shows that Thursday was the date upon which these representatives arrived. This is one of 'the biggest events held in Athens and it is deserving of a hearty co-operation on the part of every citizen of the city as well as every student of the University. Athens is indeed fortunate to have the meet hbld here, it furnishes the best mdium for advertising tne University of Georgia, which is one of the biggest, as- Sets that the city has. The recitations, declamations, debates and the athletic events are all of the first class and all who have attended the various contests in the past have been more than surprised at the talent and abjlity shown by these boys and girls. The University of Georgia throws open heir doors to these visitors arid turn's over to them the use of any buildings that they nuty need, the athletic events are held/on Sanford field under supervision of the Uni versity athletic directors, everything is done whereby the" University may express their .appreciation . for ■ having been selected as the meeting place for these high sc hool boys and girls. The students attend the contests in large’ numbers but there has been very few citizens of Athens who attended. Thefte boys and girls would be more anxious, to attend the University if they saw a grandstand full of people, rooting, yelling and encouraging them in the track events, and filling the chapel when the I'ecitations and declama tions, are held. Athens has always rallied to any reqnest that the University has made, it is a very loy al city. Now an opportunity presents itself where by the city as well as the University can join in and welcome these boys and girls in a spirit that they will nevef forget. .

But in those days the telephone was new to our people and there were loss than one hundred subscribers, conse quently the number of cal 1 * were limited. During the day a ma.iorltv of the calls were from business houses to the railroads, telegraph office and warehouses, in th; evenings, however, there wore n dumber of young people who would spend the evening In conversation over the phone rather than brave the roads from one home to the •other. It has not been so many years nlnce we have had electric llghtti. pijved street#and sidewalks, nnd automobiles, but In these days nono of these confenlenres had been provided for Athens and con. aequennv much of the sodrklnr was carried on ever the phone. I ould not, of course. Infinite that flus ever listened in on any of ♦heap snnrking conversations, bit it would have been a very easy •fitter for either Of us to have un°d ♦ho cutln plug.

Isn’t it worth trying? Other cities .arc anxious to have this meet and would do many thingd in order to get it. Athens has -it and by do ing u few things to make the visitors enjoy uelvefi will be able to keep it. THE SUMMER SCHOOL To lie hostess to a single visitor is a responsibility; one stranger in the city of Athens is dub, and usually : -- get-., courtesy from her citizens, Two thousand’times greater is the responsibility on the citizens of Athens, when all the hundreds of (eachera gather- here in -July from all parts,of the country to attend the Suthn mer School of their and our Stato University. They conn-,'the’invited guests of Athens, , Athens has always been a good hostess to these tiainers of Georgia’s citizens; she Has always given them a cordial-welcome. But we believe that many Athenians fail to realise just what their presence mi uii!| to (he community. IToan a merely commercial point of view, think what two thousand temporary citizens, each spend ing nf least sixty dollars in Athens, means to our merchants, to our commercial welfare—this means an inflow of over $120,000 to the'city-when it is most needed. Buti far more important to the city, is its character as a center of influence. These teachers ade leaders intellectual life, not merely'from one section, but mi practically every county in the state. They are a .--elHct body of representatives from every Georgia community; they represent the intelligence, the pro ducer* of state intelligence, of state progress. flow vast is this opportunity for Athens'V make 4 . . good impression, to impress heirelf'upon the entiYe 1 tate and other states as a city! filled with thoughtful citizeis, a city in which it is good to live!

The next morning, as Trinidad students, wended (heir way to the high school campus, they saw that the Flag was not flying from the staff over the build ing.'They began to talk, and soon waited in a body upon tho principal of the school and other school of ficials demanding that the Flag be raised every day. This the school officials refused to do,> stating that the Flag would be displayed only on certain days. Within an hour the students had declared a “strike,” Leaving the school, they formed an im promptu-but orderly parade, and passed through the streets of Trinidad, where they were'supplied- with flap*'by merchants and citzens.

Around at the courthouse, or we might say'from the location rf our office, over at the court houee where city court is held, mnm amusing ihclrjejits occur which enliven the ustml grind court proceedings.
