By HUGH ROWE Andrew C. Erwin, Bowdf* Phinixjy t LL J. Rowe, Address all Business Communications direct to the Athens Publish ing Company, not to individuals. News articles intended for publica tion should be addressed to The Banner-Herald, MEETING UNIVERSITY TRUSTEES The trustees of the. University of Georgia meei Thursday in annual session. The gathering of these dietinguished citizens of Georgia marks an era in the year which is always looked'forward to with much interest on the part of Ihe people of Athens as well as those throughout (he state. II is a coming together of men who have the interests of the young men and young women of Georgia at heart and their delibera tions are centered on the betterment of higher educa tion in this state. They are welcomed by Hie people of Ailiens, mem- ' bers of the faculty and the local trustees who extend 1 to them during their stay in the city a most hearty and cordial invitation to feel (hat Athens is their,home. . the home of true and loyal Georgians. • . ■ . Speaking of the cloudburst in Macon mt Sunday, Bridges Smith, feature writer in the Telegraph, has the following to say ot an interview with one of the oldest citizens of that commun ity and a minister of the gospel of Vamacraw church: When asked if he remember- i cd such a ruin since his re-si-i ence here the Rev. Wall-Eye Thomas, the beloved pastor of J the Puss Mefcdis enu’eh or ^Ya mac raw, made this observa tion: “Ef wot deys suyed am true, detrain is water wot sucked up from do sea by Ue sun, den de sun sucked up evvy drap in hit Sunday an futeh hit right over Mucous ar. oi u de bungbote.” adoption in the event some of- 1 leers haven’t yet thought of it- A barrel of whisky could be placed in a shot-uj) or ar rested car. and the officers would go scot free, according to Judge Barrett, if the officer could avoid .detection in plac ing- the evidence.'

In to a frazzle and feel blue and part it says: cure is the performance to be given tonight by the members of the Rotary club. Jimmie Bishop is the doctor and a finer specialist never came down the pike. He has prepared n prescription that will cure or kill, and from the out burst of laughter he pulled last night, at dress rehearsal, it was some riot of fun.

Then there are so many other high 'class specialty men to appear; on the program— we cannot commence to enumerate (hem or to pick them out, but all we ask of. our readers is to take our word for it and come out and the performance and if the she siii Many years ago a dcpuly lerifrwas quoted as having WHY NOT ATHENS The city of Macon and county of Biljb 3ro planning to caure a bill to be introduced in the legislature this month which will-combine the city and county Health Boards and place the health work in that community under one supervisory body and one commisrlgher. This, it seems to this newspaper, is a wise step for Macon and Bibb county , to take. We do not’pretend to 1 know the health conditions in Bibb county or in Macon but there is no reason to believe that the health work in the city and county cannot he done better and even more economically under one directing head than to have two sots of employees. Of course, consolidation of the boards and placing the work in the hands of one man will not bring about a considerable cut in the employees’ list but it will no doubt save some money. However, saving money is not the primary object of this consolidation. Effi ciency and better health protection for the commun ity is the aim., • This newspaper wishes it understood in the begin ning that there is no doubt but that the health author ities here are doing everything they can in botK'cohVi- ty and city to protect the people from disease. How ever, the fcity health department has not sufficient funds with which to perform its work as effectually as the health officers, would desire. Particularly us i this ( true in the sanitfiry department. ’ 1 1 I r It appears to up thot if, the county nnd city health departments were placed tinder one managing board and health,commissioner it might result in aaavipg in . certniri quarters which could be applied to other health work which is needing it sorely. It’is understood City Council favors a reduction of a, the staff of city physicians to one and combining that U,: office with the office of bacteriologist and require the man e^ctcd to spend a certain number of hours in the city hall where he can be reached at anytime by > people who need the services of the city physician. The city bacteriologist is paid $1200 annually and the two physicians $35.00 per month each.. A combina tion of these salaries might make it possible to secure a man who could,devote his entire time to city health work under direction of a health commissioner who would have charge of health work in both city and criunty. • It is understood that the late Dr. Dan Dupree had in mind consolidation of the city and county health work. The Banner-Herald has not investigated this plan thoroughly but It would not be time misspent if the health boards of the city and county would ap point a committee to do this. If the health work can be rendered more efficiently and better protection given the community by combining the work it should be done. If not, no one will be harmed by having the matter investigated. . DESECRATORS T > The authorities of a Georgia county a few days ago ! gave permission to have a number of holly trees re moved from the court hoit^e grounds and down in Savannah the public is practicing such valdalism by destroying the flowers and shrubs on “Victory Drive” that police action seems necessary to -protect this beautiful driveway. St ,. It seems almost sacriligious to destroy a holly tree nnd it has even been suggested that the Georgia legis- fa^lature pass n bill protecting them even from raids ^Mby the public at Christmas times when the branches mjire used for decorating and the smaller trees used B for Christmas trees. The holly tree is so closely as- 1; sociated with the celebration of the birth of the Savior and is becoming so scare, especially in Geor- &' gia, that those trees that have escaped human hands on the eve of Christmas should be preserved instead J of destroyed. 1 ; Most wild flowers and shrubs are more beautiful and better enjoyed as they grow in the woods but of 6- course in the spring when everything i»a-b|Q0.m with !"- them it is permitted to pick them but when'the public fit wades private grounds or^adroys.CDSkerttand shrubs planted to beautify 4 roadways’it is nothing short of vandalism and as for cutting down a holly tree thpt t'. certainly should not be done unless the cSWumstanccs' absolutely demand it. The first cotton bloom has been reported from a South Georgia epunty. It is no longer a novelty to 5 bring in the first boll weevil. It will be a few weeks yet before fylodms begin to appear in this section, the cotton crop being delayed considerable this year due to the incessant rajns.
