THE NEEDS OF THE NORMAL SCHOOL The State Normal School has grown beyond „ grown beyond its capacity and ouch year hundreds of deserving young wotoen of Georgia are barred from its benefits for the reason that every room in the dormitories ana — even every foot of available class room space is oc cupied. It is a most deplorable condition and onfc which should receive the serious consideration of the members of Jthe tax commission, the governor; and through these officials brought to the attention ot the legislature with a request for increased appro priations for its support and maintenance. Georgia can not afford to allow such a condition to exist. The state is due something to the women — and in no better way can it be shown than by, proper ly supporting this institution and providing necessary funds for dormitories and acedemic buildings. v f A ten-year plan has been proposed which would give to this school four dormitories and two acedemic buildings and an increase in appropriation for main tenance. Unless something of this kind is done by •. the legislature, not only the school Will suffer, but — hundreds of young women in this state will be de- ., prived of the training and an education which is " owed them by the state. This year nearly one thousand young women failed to be admitted to this school for the reakon that the capacity had been taxed to overflowing and many of them, no, doubt, will not be able to go to other states where thev would be required to pay entrance fees. It is nothing short of a. calamity and .the great state of Georgia should see to it that her young women are given ,the opportunity of receiving an edu cation of higher learning. . “ • Each year the legislature should appropriate a i sufficent fund for the building of at least an academ ic building and a dormitory building for a period of ■ ■ ten years and during that time increase the main tenance fund in keeping with the increased attend- ance and additions to the faculty. No better invest ment could be made by the legislators from the state’s income than to provide an education for its young women. It is a necessity ; it is right and proper: it is due the women of Georgia and it is in excusable on the piart of those in authority to fail to 'make proper provision for more buildings and in creased appropriations for the support of this insti tution which' is doing so touch gohd in this state. V 3^ sn an "WHITES OUT OF THE SOUTH” The Toledo Blade, a newspaper, published in the center of the industrial middle west, ih an editorial a few days ago discusses a different angle on the mi- . gration both whites and blacks, from the south to the north. This paper comments on the number of whites, pure Anglo Saxons, migrating north and in passing states that the section north of the Mason and Dixon line has everything to gain and nothing to lose for the influx. The editorial in the Blade is as follows: --- r "The Negro migration into, the North i» t«e specta cular phase of a,very big movement. It receives all the notice and discussion. But it is not the whole story. Southern white men and women are migrat ing also. Georgia, for example, has lost population in the northern hill soction, and tho cities of tl e state have not gained by it. The migrants have gone elsewhere. - “An attentive ear can catch the soft syllables of southern speech in almost any northern community • of size. In particular, the automobile manufactur ing sections have been attractive to the unattached young man. Thence they have diffused through northern .centers, big and little. They have caught the taste‘of wandering-a littlo belatedly, but' they have no less zest fo.r it than their northern cousins who seemed, a generation ago,-to be born only to flee thp place of .their births. “The North is now, and ought to be permanently, the better for these new citizens. They are of the purest of that Btock we speak of as American. Be neath the easy-going customs of the southern white, •••more traditoinal than native, is a surprising alert ness. Change of climate seems to make it more ap- . .. parent. The South has retained the old family al legiance while it has been breaking down in the "North. We haVe gained nothing to take its place £„fand if the southerner can reintroduce it he will have made himself all the more welcome. . As we have gone farther and farther from the soil we have lost that homely flavor it gives to Rpeecb. The south- - enter still has it. It has-been like a breath out of a t past rich in humor to hear some of these youngsters *< from the Gulf. States express their opinions of Carl in tankerous caw given over to them to bully into de- w cency. “Tho South is a bit ironical in remarking upon the shifting of the Negro probletp. But it cannot say it “Sf* Rained. The North has captured great numbers of sinewy, straight-eyed, pleasing youngsters of white complexion whose coming must mean a loss to the South as it has meant a real acquisition above . Mason and Dixon’s.” Every day is a busy day with the merchant. * It is said that the present value of the German Mark is not worth the paper it is printed on. - The “fair” season is here, but what about that ^ fair the Chamber of Commerce was to pull off? The Cooiidge boom for the presidency seems to he grow-ing In favor as the , time for the convention .
