HIGH STANDARD OF EFFICIENCY y - Throughout the country, the bar associations and the legislatures of the states are strengthening the present requirements of applicants for the admission to the practice of law. A standard of efficiency as to - mioral character and education are the first principles fifposed on applicants for admission to the bar. lln -~ Missouri and Pennsylvania, the restrictions and -réquirements for applicants to the bar have been . drawn in and before a man can be admitted to tne " legal profession, he must have a clean record. The - St. Louis Globe-Democrat takes the following view of the requirements of applicants to the practice of - law: L “Every applicant for admission and license (to the ~ practice of law) must be at least 21 years of age,, of good moral character and a resident of this state. These are the general qualifications presceribed by the statutes of Misscuri for candidates for admission to its bar. What precautions are taken to make sure that candidates have these qualifications? To de termine eligibility is a duty of examiners named by tkee supreme wourt, and while applicants are required to have only the equivalent of common or grammar school training in general education, along with a ‘fair knowledge’ of history, literature and civil gov - ernment, these examiners are said by those who have ~ taken their tests to make a stiff inquiry in legal ,tz‘aining. Candidates 'may be required to furnish proof of ‘good moral character,” but it is about the same sort of perfunctory proof as that establishing the fact of requisite: age and residence within the state. Moral eligibility, accordingly, means about as rauch in this as in most of the states, but in Pennsyl vénia, under a law effective since last January and - now being applied for the first time, the examiners ~ inquire into moral eligibility, and both signify more ~ at present than in the past. Of 168 recent candidates, twenty-six were rejected for moral insufficiency and several more were permitted to withdraw their appli - cations for the same reason. That the twenty-six and " others would havé been admitted to practice under ' the old-Pennsylvania and the present Missouri sys ~ tem is hardly to be questioned, and that they would ll;t;:lsct dittle eredit on the profession is also proba o W ' _Under the recent law enacted in Pennsylvania, a greater number of applicants for admission to the bar are refused than those that are granted. The Georgia Bar Association has gone on record favoring more stringent requirements of applicants than here tofore. The position taken by this association has improved the personnel of the profession in a marked degree. A practicing attorney, should be a man of -the highest character and integrity and one to com mand the respect and confidence of the entire public. ¢ . CARNES DISAPPEARANCE A MYSTERY ! " One of the most mysterious cases occurring in the - state in many years is that of C. S. Carnes, treasurer of the Southern Baptist Association. Apparently with nut cause on the 15th of August, Mr. Carnes mysteri ously disappeared from his home city, Atlanta, and x?r a nation wide scarch no news of his where | outs has been learned. Another strange feature in connection with Mr. Carnes is the failure of the offi cers of the Southern Baptist Association to investigate ~ his past record before employing him for such a re ‘wgibje positicn. He had served 15 months’ sen . tence in the Federal prison in Atlanta and immedi ; ?ly following his release he entered the service of -the Baptist people and for the past several years ~ has conducted the affairs of that office in a most sat ~ isfactory manner, according to statements of the offi clals of the church. Not only did he succeed with he affairs of the church, but he met\ with remark able success in the real estate field and with a num ber of other enterprises in that city. And vet, with a prison record in this and other states, he managed to _ keep it from the public. All of the enterprises with * which he was connected are reported to be in splen d condition finally and not a dollar misappropria ' "l,?as been found by the auditors working on his ! S. "Tt is a strange case and one that should be investi - gated in a most thorugh manner and by experienced ectives. If credence is to be given the reports | 5 '(%the auditors and from those associated with him i ) siness there is no doubt about Mr. Carnes having it with an accident or foul play in some manner, , either in Atlanta cr on a trip to other sections of the ' ;,q&flgay the least, iteis a mysterioug case and one : should be gone into in the mostmrough man | possible. .

A Little of Everything and No Much of Anything, By HUGH ROWE Prgident Cuyler Trussell, of the Chamber of Commerce, is conducting an active campaign for securing a diversity of new enterprises for Athens. Since his election to the office of presiden!, iie has inaungurated the monthly luncheon meeting plan which seems to have met with popular tavor on ihe part of tne membership. Besides he is bring ing the members together in a co opera’:.i\;p way that will mean much tor the advancement of every in terest to .the city and surrounding section. ~ Secretary Saunders s rendering a most valuable service, keeping in touch with many pros pective enterprises seeking new locations. The Chamber of Com merce is not only condueting an active campaign for new enter prises, but it has on its program a number of other improvements for, Athens that it hopes w'll ma teriiwize before the end of the year, We are not informed as to the correctness of the reports that seem to be in general cir culatiopy of the oppesition, on the part of some citizens, to the locating of new entcoprises here, but if they are true, it is . indeed an unfortunate condi tion. No town or city in the state has better auvantages to offer for manufacturing and icdustrial en terprises than has Atbens. Abund ance of electric power, cheap and reliable labor, school and health conditions upsurpassed and a most ideal climate. Indusiries seeking new llocations could not improve on_what Athens has to offer. If there are any citizens here ob structing the location of enler prises, let’s learn who they are and try to’ convert them or sell them on the idea of building a Greater and Better Athens. We are inclined to the belief that the rumors of such opposit'on are magnified and inflated. Attend the next meeting of the Chamber of Commerce and give .the membhers the 2enefit of your ideas and ex perience, “So you remember way back to the Revolution, do you?” “Yassa.

There has been a steady flow of deteripration reports from prac tically, every section of the Dbelt and the crop has undoubtedly had a serious setback. Prices seem to us to he relative ly too low in view of the fact that the supply indicated by the carry over and predicted crop is a mil lion bales legs than last year. The price is almost 3¢ lower. : Reports just coming in from North Carolina say the top crop is eaten up by the weevil, and in others the plant seems to be turn ing vyellow, and the reaves drop ping off. ' We understand that the sec tion of the Elebrton highway ex tending from tiae Madison county line to Elberton, that was bu'lt under contract, has been rejected by the Elbert Authorities because the road is too narrow and the work does not come up to specifi cations. This is a very important link and for a greater part of the distance is built over the river and Dove Creek. hills, there is anpther rough and rugged streich on this highway from Comer to Colbert, on which no work whatever has been done. Travel from Athens to Elberton must continue to detour via the Danielsville and Royston, which about doubles the distance. It looks like the State highway commission ig bent on side-track ing Athens. A cross road is being built from Elberton to Greenshoro via Lexington, ard which will cat off travel on the Calhoun highway from Athens. Work has been dis continued on the Bankhead High way between Danielsville and Royston. and the old narrow wood en bridges are stll in use. Our Chamber of Commerce had better be up and doing, or Athens will be left stranded high and dry on the Highway map.

The cotton sialks weke never better fruited at th's season and all other crops are as fine as the land can produce. Our old friend Jim Wright spent a week with his daughter at Cen ter, Jm tells us only a few polls weevils have as yet appeared in that section, and farmers are close ly watching their fields and apply ing poison.
