A aeries of articles presenting
some startling facts about the
status of education in Georgia
which are of vital Interest to every
citizen of the state.
1—-Introduction
A group of Jeading citizens of
Georgia recently became Interest
ed In remedying the evils existing
fn cur educational system. As a
result they organized the Qeorgia
Citizens’ Education Movement,
which has made a thorough inves
tigation and study of the educa
tional situation in Georgia. The
situation depicted hy this Investi
gation is appalling- The fatts
should startle the state of Georgia
into doing something to better the
facilities for educating its chil
dren.
As there are numbers of people
throughout the state who have
find little or no opportunity to ob
tain information regarding this
situation, we are endeavoring t«|
present it in graphic form in a
. series of articles to be published
f In this newspaper, which articles
will be illustrated with chart**.
They will treat a single phase of
the sltnatlon at a time and shew
the following facts:
That out of ten southern states*
Louisiana. Arkansas. Mississippi
Tennessee. Kentucky, Alabama
Georgia. Florida, North and South
CaroJna, Georgia stands Inst In
the amount of money spent cn edu
cation per inhabitant.
That Georgia’s investment in
nubile school property is less than
that of any of these states.
That one fourth of Georgia’s
nchool children go to school only
six months or less.

That onefourth cf the cnlldrea
of Georgia of school age do not, go
to school at all. *
That Gergia’s average salary to
teachers is $600 a year—the
to the lowest of any of the tei|
states considered.
That 32 per cent of Georgia’*
fathers—almost one-Aiird—are
still. In one-rcom schools.
That 35 per cent of Georgla’o
teachers— more than one-third-?
have only a high school education
or less. ,
That Georgia’s splendid state In
stitutfens, tho University of Geor
gia. the Georgia School of Tech
nology and tho three women’s col
leges, each receives less in state
appropriations per student enroll
ed than similar institutions In the
ten southern states.
• There are taken at random from
among tho many things these arti
cles will reveal regarding Geor
gia education, but they serve te
Indicate the kind of things found
out in the investigation.
Tho results of this survey should
be of vital interest to every Geor
glan. Our civilization is built
around education, and unless that
education broadens minds and cre
ates vision, initiative and think
ing. It has failed, and civilization
will stagnate. Unless our teacher*
have the ability to properly train
the minds of our children, they
often do moro harm than good
and teachers of that caliber de
mand good salaries. And unless
the facilities are adequate and the
methods right these teacher*'can-
net function properly, no matter
how good they are.
Tho children of today are oui
citizens'of tomorrow to whom wt
will entrust the continuing of our
progress In civilization. Frcir
among the students in the colleger
and training schools of today wil’
ho selected tho minds which will
lead and train these future citiz
ens.
Is It asking too much for pos
terity to urge that wo give tW
best that w e can. both In training
and opportunity for development'?

finds happpiness in. the fulfillment of
flic great desire of the individual, to

There arc about two hundred dif
ferent species and thousands of va
rieties of Iris—a wide province to
cover. Many of us know the bulbous
Iris—planted in the Fall like the tulip.
A few know of the beardless sibirica,
crested, spuria, pseudo aeons, and the
native “flag lily”—versicolor The
bearded Iris is more common and
include the Fumila—blooming in
April-May, the Intermediate—bloom

(and allied groups)—blooming in
May-June. It is in the latter section
that hydridizers have made such great
progress in recent years.
This article calls your attention to
the value of pogonris (Germanica
and allied specie) As » valuable and
hardy perennial for ornamenting your
home grounds. They increase rapidly
from their surface creeping rhizomes
and many varieties wil! seed through
artificial pollonization. Experience in
endeavoring to produce Iris with im
proved pink and red tone colors,
based on Mendel’s theory of heredity,
bas been interesting. Seed produced
m the-Fall is planted, when ripe, gen
erally followed by germination the
following Spring. These seedlings
often bloom in another year, how
ever. I have waited four and five
rears for flowers. The seedlings are
ill different and the wait is often dis
appointing as not one in a thousand
is better than existing named varie
ties.
For beautifying the home grounds
they can be planted along walks,
j rives, shrubbery borders and in the
-jock garden. Jr you have a pool or
brook they make a wonderful land-
icape effect when clumped along the
border «*r banks. They deserve a
dace in ihe home garden whether it

grand. Use them to give you
the pride of ownership as they arc
as much the flower for every garden
as the rose. An Iris border, four feet
wide and closely planted, will make
an excellent fence # to keep the
chickens fropi the fairway beyond.
The rhizomes, or large fleshy roots,
should be planted on the surface like
duck floating on the water. They
ill thrive in any sunny position and
to a great extent are indifferent as
to soil. Lime and good drainage are
beneficial. Water, not drought, is the
danger with bearded Iris as the rhi
zomes need a good baking in the
summon sun. They can be planted
any month in the year, but the ideal
time is after blooming. If planted in
'Spring, they should be in the
ground before they show active
growth. The clumps shonld be di
vided in three to sig years as most
varieties multiply rapidly. For bet
ter bloom top-dress annually with
bone meal or potash. Plant twelve
inches apart in groups of three for
quick effect Iris stand extreme heat
and cold and are adapted to almost
any climate.
The older and standard named Iris
include some of the'best varieties
such as Alcazar, Archcvenue, rap-
rice, Eldorado, Fairy, Flavescens
Isoline, Juanita. Madame Chereau,
Ma Mie, Nibclungcn, Pallida Dalma-
tica. Prosper Laugicr, Queen of May,
Rhein Nixe, and VioJacea Grandi-
