The kitchen has been completely

UNIVERSITY OF GA.
FACING A CRISIS.
\ ' Following the announcement In Fri
day’s paper that tbe appropriation
committee of tho Georgia legislature
has suggested a cut In the appropria
tions to tbe Unlvorstty of Georgia and
the -State College ot Agriculture for
the ensuing year, tho feeling that
something must bo done to keep tills
suggestion from materializing has fill
ed the mind of every thinking person.
With the University of Georgia al
ready laboring under the greatest ot
handicaps on account of the lack ot
funds, what would the situation dur
ing the 1921-22 session be with a de
crease in the meager amount that tho
University has for the past few ydars
been receiving?
Even the most optimistic cannot
see a ray ot hope In such a situation.
It Is estimated that should the legisla
ture act' favorably on the suggestion
ot the appropriation committee, It
will mean a loss ot more than a halt
million dollars to the Institutions lo
cated in this city and consequently to
Athens. This speaks tor itself!
What can be done? The University
of Georgia, an well as other Institu
tions, must continue to operate, and
without funds. This Is an impossi
blllty! A committee at Athens citi
zens from the Chamber of Commerce
and the Retail Merchants' association
will go to Atlanta and make a tight
to see that something is done to re
lleve the situation. It is to be hoped
that their fight will not be In vain.
The University ot Georgia must
have funds! This fact cannot
evaded. Surely the legislature
Georgia will not see her own state
institution of higher learning die ot
starvatiou!
Dr. M'PHERSON
HONORED.
Dr. J. H. T. McPherson, professor
of history and political science at tne
University of Georgia and a member
of tho state tax commission, had
very distinctive honor conferred upon
him Friday, when he was appointed to
represent the state of Georgia at the
National Tax association's convention.
Miss II, H. Moore is spending a Mrs. 0. W. Westbrook, of Ils., was

AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENT8.
During the day Friday two serious
automobile accidents occurred in
Athens, both taking place, at street
Intersections. These are but two out
of many that might have and wllf
occur unless drivers are more care
ful. Speeding at intersections is more
dangerous than words can picture and
officials should see to it that persons
guilty of such are branded ns crim
inals. Unless this la dono, there is
no telling how serious a mishap may
occur at any time.
