i Learning to Live at School
k By J. C. MEADOWS
i;’nfessor of Education, University of Georgia
'fifi‘he school syvstem of the United States rc-presents‘
fthe unification of several schools, each of which had
ats own separate beginning and purpose.. Educéa
ftional leaders in this country have aceeptgdethe the-
OFy of gradual development of human life rather
f#han the salutatory theory and have advocated an
®ducational system which would be continuous from
M “kindergarten to the univeérgity and thus be in
fh@rmony with the growth of lifg itself, The divisions
,;,’», school system, primary,‘elementary, second
‘ary, and college or university had/their beginnings
@8 individual schools, were independent of each
w in management, and did not articulate with
gach other. These divisions have gradually been
ght closer together and in certain cities, notably
m , Indiana, the divisions have disappeared and
work is continuous from the first grade through
f:’} je highest. The gaps In our present school sys
j” are due now more to administrative exigency |
‘than to choice.
gg jefore the approach of our present’ economlc de.
pression there was a movement to extend upward
pUr public free municipal school system in our more
) pgressive cities to include the first two years of
pditional college work and downward to include
e kindergarten and nursery school. The large pro
fessive citles and districts will then offer sixteén
of free schooling to include, unless the ;)eriodf
,"émentary education is shortened; a m'ima':y‘
composed of a nursery school, kindergartcn
id the first and second grades; an elemen.tary!
ehool composed of grades three, four, five, and six;
| lower secondary school composed of grades seven,!
ght,- nine and ten; and a higher secondary school!
@omposed of grades eleven, twelve, thirteen, and |
folurteen. The completion of this program would |
Imit a student to thé junior year of our present'
pllege and university organization. This predicted :
iganization is, with the exception of the nursery |
1001, now in operation in Pasadena, California anrll
‘hundred twenty eight (128) cities now maintain;
1 colleges as a part of their school system. '
“The elementary school which has been neglected '
| the past and discriminated against in favor of
je high school is coming to be recognized for lts‘
e worth as our basic educational institution, ltl
~>ing looked upon as our foundation school, a
thgol whose enrollment i more than four llmcs]

gombined, the school which touches more homes
‘than any other., and the only school one.half of cur
putire population has ever attended. i
" The purpose of the elementary school has changed
gom that of preparing the humble for a humle po
dtion, from the offering of the barest minimum
dducational opportunitles for the masses, to a school|
ifer childhood for both rich and poor. The new. ele
pentary school {s a rudimentary and vernacular,

e aetion of tho Sfnatorial Committee
of the Fiftieth district in allotting to tha
counties of that district senatorial represen
tation for two consecutive terms will prove
heneficial to the interest of all the coun
ties.
In the legislative bodies, as well as in
business concerns, experience is a valua
ble asset. Under the rotation system of
counties, furnishing a representative for
each term, in many instances the interest
of the counties have suffered from the
lack of experience on the part of the rep
resentative. A one-term senator does not
have the opportunity of becoming ac
quainted with legislative procedure, conse
quently he can not render as valuable ser
vice to his constituents as he could, if he
were permitted to serve for two terms.
Senator Hamilton McWhorter, of Ogle
thorpe county, is an experienced legisla
tor. He has served that county in the
lower house of the legislature for several
terms, and at the present time he is the
sénator from this district, which is ‘made
up of Oglethorpe, Wilkes and Clarke
counties. His services in the senate last
year were cf a high standard of excellney,
egspecially as relates to Clarke county and
the educational institutions located here.
~ GETTING TIRED OF THE NEGRO
A movement in New York, Chicago and
Detroit has been inaugurated for the pur-}
pose of returning to the South the negroes
‘who migrated to those sections of the
country during boom times. A petition hac
been sent to President Hoover urging him
to favor the plan, also legislation has been
prepared for introduction in Congress t»
appropriate funds sufficient to pay the ex
penses of the return of these negroes to
this section of the country.
A paragraph in the proposed bill reads:
“To provide federal funds for trains to
take indigent negroes from New York, De
troit and Chicago back to the South from
which they were lured through the ill-bal
anced prosverity of a few years ago.”
The National Association for the Ad
vancement of Colored People is opposing
the proposed movement and terms it as a
plan for the “*deportation of negroes into
peonage.” This organizatign, of course,
has no love for the white people of the
Couth, bnt it need not have any fear of
the peopie of the South favoring any such
legislation. Those negroes who have moved
to other sections of the country, and are
now dissaisfied, are to be pitied. If theyl
had heeded the advice of their white
friends to remain in this section of the
country, they would be much better off,
but now that they have gone, they would
make a great mistake in retnrning. Not
that they wonid be mistreated, but on ac
count of conditions, their services are not
needed. The white farmer has learned %>
do his own work; he is saving the amount
formerly paid to negro farm hands; the
migration of the negro from the farms to
the industrial centars of the east and west
’was a great blessing to the South. There
18 no room here for them—thev should be
'kept in those sections of their adopted
homes where they can enjoy the privi
}lege of social and economic equalities.
SHORT-TERM BONDS VS. TAXES
How and in what wayv to increase the
revenues of the government sufficient to
absorb the large deficit now existing in
the treasury of the United States is a per
plexing problem for Congressmen and
Senators to solve. A sales tox has been
suggested, but it has met with opposition
from many sources. Sales taxes have
proven quite unpopular wherever they
have been tried and for that reason the
plan has not gathered much strength. Un
der a sales tax, however, money would
be coming immediately: and under the
proposal, it would be made retroactive.
Another system of taxation in the way Ȣ
a tax on manufacturers, has been discuss
ed and advecated, but as the government
woud not realize from such tax until an
other vear, it has not met with favor by
the officials. The latest and most feasu
ble proposition for securing ready money
comes in the way of a sugeestion for the
issuanre of short-term bonds of small de
nominations.. The treasury officials are
opposed to the plan on account of it in
creasing the public debt. It is argued,
however, that with the issuance of short
term bonds, those who are hoarding their
money would invest it in these bonds.
‘There may be something in the thought.
;If the issuances of short-term bonds would
induce hearders to bring out their monev
and invest it in such bonds, the plan would
he most ideal.
: "MAKING AIR LINES SAFE
The Commerce Department, it is an
nounced, is about to adopt a new regula
tion for commercial air transport com
panies which would reauire each pilot fly
ing a passenger-carrving plane to possess
a certificate of competency, to obtain
which he would have to measure up to ex
tremely stiff standards.
He would. for instance. have to have at
least 1,200 hours solo flying time, 500
hours cross-country flving, 75 hours night
flying, and in addition would have to pass
a test in blind flying.
This provision, naturally, would elimi
nate the employving of pilots who were not
of the very highest type. and would do a
good deal to make the air lines safer. Nor
is there anything unreasonabie about it.
A steamship captain must possess a cer
tificate ors competency which is based on
very stiff requiremenis. Should not =y
airplane pilot meet the same sort of rule?

A Little of Everything,
- Not Much of Anything
| BY HUGH ROWE
AT PRA SO .USTAL A O
Our attention has been call.
ed to the deplorable condition
of the old cemetery on Jackson
street, opposite the campus of
the University of Georgia.
This spot is sacred to the hearts
of many Athenians. There lies the
remains of many of their loved
ones, who passed on years ago.
This cemetery represents the cit
izenship of *“old Athens’. Many
of those who were buried there
are not represented among the
present generation in this ecity.
Some have moved away and oth
ers have bheen called to their homa
of eternity, but that condition does
not justify the people and offici
als of Athens to permit this ceme
tery to be desecrated in the way
that it now exists. |
This property belongs to the
state—that is to the University
of Georgia. Many years aco,
the University authorities
granted the municipality the
privileere of using this tract
for burial purposes.
That was many yvears ago. Later
vears, the city officials abandone?
the old cemetery and established
the new cemtery —the Oconesa.
Many of the bodies buried in the
old cemetrey were removed to the
Oconee cemetery, but there are the
remains of prominent former Ath
enians now resting there, thei~
graves unkept and the tombstonec
and walls around the lots erumn
led from age, and in some in
stances from the hands of vandals
On several occasions the Univer.
gity authorities have sought a re
turn of this propertv., but on an
count of loeal opvosition, from ecit
izens, the trustees of that institu
tion considered thelr wishes in th»
matter and allowed the cemetery
property to remain under the con
trol of the city.
The clean.up and paint.up
season is near at hand. Some
thing should be done to im
prove the appearances of this
sacred spot, if it is to continue
as a municipal cemetery.
The city authorities could well
afford to spend a few hundred dol
lars in improving and beautifyinz
this place. Not only for the sake
of traditions that cluster around
this sacred spot, but as a civic
pride, something should be done.
There will be a number of con
ventions held here bringing visi
tors to Athens from all parts cos
the state. Besides the Garden
Club of Georgia will meet here
shortly and then will follow the
Summer School, which attracts a
large number of visitors from ali
sections of the country in addition
to the members of the student
body, principally from this state,
The suggestion deserves attention
and the cooperation of all eivic
an. municipal forces.
In a recent issue of this
newspaper there appeared an
account of a number of cases
carried up from Clarke Su
perior court, and decided by
the Court of Appeals.
In the case of Graham vs. The
State, it was stated in the news
story that it had been affirmed by
the Court of Appeals while as a
matter of faet, the decision of the
Superior Court was reversed. The
opinion as written by Judge Broy
les, reads:
“The evidence tending to con
nect th: defendant with the of
fense charged (larceny of automo
bile) was wholly circumstantial,
and did not exclude every reason
able hypothesis save that of his
guilt. It follows that his convie.
tion wos unauthorized, and the
couirt’s hoving refused to grant
himi a new trial was error. “Judg
ment reversed.” ‘
Mr, Graham was represented by
Wolver M. Smith in the Supegior
court and by Mr. Smith and Col.
John B, Gamble in the Court of
Appeals.

“Well, I. know a quick way to

Presently he returned with the
information, “He's checked out.
Last night—late.” And sat down
heavily. Despair took him in hand
for a moment, and shook him 'as

“My God,” he moaned, “you

“No, I'll tell you what it is,”” he
said, presemtly. “He had 'to get

“There’'s something betweer

she had to do it to keep his mouth

He took a cigaret and pushed

“Well, our time may be short.!
We'd better get busy. I want to

Bowen nodded. “Don’t’ worry
about me. I'll go take a look at
the kitchen if I can’t get out any
other way.”
Mary followed the bellboy, her
limbs "quaking treacherously. As
she walked around the high
backed chair to face its oecupant,
she felt a weakness that'was al.
most like fainting.
The outstretched s,elgg .
The ontstretched legs, garbed
in white ‘linen, were uncommuni.
cative. As she came face to face
with ,the man in the chair, who
rose swiftly to meet her, her re
lief was ‘almost equal to her
puzzlement. :
He was not, as she had feared,
'De Loma, but a stranger, Try as
she would, from a quick scanning
{of the good-lookinz, sunburned
face, she could not recall ever
lhaving seen the man before in
her life.

THERE are good reasons why 80
many people prefer Thedford’s Black-
Draught — why it is their favorite
laxative:
They like its thorough, cleansing
action.
They like that “better feeling the
next morning,” — a refreshed feeling
after the release of intestinal poisons.
And the low cost of Blaci-Draught
is another point in its favor. You
are really buying medicine when you
buy Black-Draught, as the sealed
container, in which the medicine is
sold, costs only a small
i fraction. Its light
