On Tuesday morning we made a
vigit to the Athens Banner-Herald
office, and also to the postoffice.
At both places everybody was nice
to us and ~'we enjoyed our visit
very much.
At the Banner-Herald office we
first saw Mr. Davis and he told
us which rooms to go to hear the
story of how our paper is printed.
It was interesting to hear how
many things have to be done be
fore the paper is sent to us.
At the postoffice Mr. Myers asked
Mr. Carr to show us through and
he certainly did tell us some in~
teresting things. I'm sure we will
be more careful to address our
letters correctly after this.

Fifth Grade
The fifth grade went on a field
trip Wednesday afternoon, and we
surely did have a good time. We
went out to find lichens growing
on rocks. We also went to the
brook to find how the brook mill
grinds rocks together, and makes
them smooth. We carried some
flower pots with us and filled
them with humus from the woods.
CARLTON LESTER.
Wednesday afternoon the fifth
grade finished Robin Hood. We
have read about how he fought
with Little Johon on the bridge.
Robin ‘was a good loser, and a
good sport. He always spoke
courteously. He was the best
archer in all the 'world. He could
shoot an arrow and kill a deer
100 yards away. At the end it was
sad. Robin Hood died in Little
John’s arms. Before he died he
shot an arrow and was buried
where it hit.

Mr. Lacher’'s Visit
The sixth grade has been study
ing Germany, Czechoslovakia, Po
jand, France and other European
countries. Miss Price, one of our
student teachers, suggested a visit
from the German exchange stu
dent, Herman Lacher. He spoke
on the German customs, govern
ment, and warfare. He told us
that the German villages are very
different from ours_ The stories of
the houses extend farther into the.
street as they near the top story.
In the inside the houses are very
much like ours,
One thing that is different is
that the cattle and horses live
under the same roof as the peo
ple. In the front rooms the people
live and in the back the animals
live
The clothing also is different in
some of the small villages. Imag
ine an American girl wearing 16
ehirts! Well, the Germans do.
Young and old alike 'wear the
shirts the same length, just below
the Kknees.

HEALTH, PHYIGAL
EDUCATION NEW
FIELD FOR WOMEN
Mrs_. Mary Ella
Soule Speaks At
Atlanta Meeting
- ATLANTA — “One of our prob
llems in Georgia today is the in
adequate number of well trained
‘teachers of health ang Physical
education,” declared Mrs. Mary
Ella Soule, head of the University’s
department of Physical Education
for women, in gn address before the
iGeorgia Physical Education Asso
ciation here Friday afternoon.
“The situation is acute and the
}‘hlgh schools can help by assisting
the girl who has high mental abili
‘ty, good health, real qualities of
leadership, a liking for people and
’some athletic ability to choose this
field as her vocation,” Mrs. Soule
continued. “In Georgia this is a
new field. This ig no longer true
in some sections such as in De
troit, Mich.,, where there are now
employed 600 men gnd women in
health and physical education.” ‘
Four Elements
Mrs. Soule pointed out that there
are four major elements in dealing
&ith girls’ athletics; mnamely (1)
the spectator, (2) the group pro
moting the activity (3) the activi
ty itself; and (4) the individual
who participates.
“The athinking educator,” she
stated, “settles the first three prob
lems in terms of the fourth element
—that of the individual participat
ing. In other words, the athletic
iprogram must be selected as to
kind, and carried out in the light
of the girl’s own personal welfare,
This is the program which gives
the girls the greatest benefit.”
“The aim of the Whbmen's Divi
sion of the National Amateur Ath
letic Federation is to help every
girl in Georgia have a chance to
play under healthful, joyous con
ditions — play which will help her
use her leisure time wisely and
make her healthier, happier, Geor
gia woman,” she concluded.
Improvement Of
Rural Life In
State Is Urged
ATLANTA. — Dean Walter D.
Cocking, addressing the Geergia
Education Association Convention
here Saturday morning, called for
a concentration of effort toward
the improvement of rura] life ijn
the state.
\“ln Georgia in particular,” he
said, “the entire educational sys
tem should bend itg energies to
ward the development of better
rural life, and thus aid economie
prosperity, social well-being, and
make life more livable, happier and
worthwhile: Georgia’s educational
job ig fundamentally that of pre
paring the rural youth of the state
io make the country better and
more cdesirable.”
Dean Cocking pointed out thatl
Georgia is 67 per cent rural and
that the economic factors of the
state are almost entirely dependent
upon rural conditions.
“Our employment problem is one
of finding work on the farms and
in the small towns. Our social wel
fare problems Lave to dp primarily
with our farmers, with their liv
ing conditions, and with their
housing facilities,”
Backlog of Success
Dean Cocking declared that Am
erica as a whole has been and will
continue to be primarily dependent
upgon itg rural areas “Itg rural
people,” he said, ‘‘have been and
will continue to be the backlog of
American success. Georgia among
the states of the Union is most
fortunate that it is so largely ru
ral”
“Georgia’'s problem,” he continu
ed, “ig fundamentally the develop
ment of rural areas and farming
conditions. The success both of
its people who live in the country
and in the ecity is dependent on
proper and wholesome rural life.”
In the improvement of rural life
Dean Cocking said, lies Georgia's
economic well-being, and civic ef
fectiveness. “To the extent tha?
we are able to provide educational
opportunities which Georgia vouth
need in every Georgia neighbdor
hood, to that extent we are doirg
that which is necessary to assuce
the -future well-being of our state
and of each community within it.”
Biologists Told
To Combat
Superstitions
By HOYT WARE
Southeastern biologists, in their
second annual meeting herg Sat

combat guperstitution.
They were thus advised by Dr.
Otig W. <Caldwell, general secre

The biologists reported on their

Dr. Reed O. Christenson, Ala

The bacteria, called trichinosis,
will pass inty the blood stream and

LETTERS FROM THE
PEOPLE
This column is an Open Forum
in which readers may express
their opinion on any subject in
which they are interested, ir
respective of the paper's atti.
tude. However, all such com
munications must bear the writ
er’s name.
The Banner-Herald,
Gentlemen:
Can we depend on the promises
of the wets?
They promised if we would do
away with the 18th amendment
that temperance would be in
creased.
One of our State Patrolmen
made this statement Thursday in
Athens: “Ninety percent of all the
automobire wrecks are due to two
causes — speeding and whiskey.”
Automobile wrecks are alarmingly
on the increase.
On the front page of one of the
daily papers in Georgia right after
the legislature passed the liquor
bill was: “Now we can have TEM
PERANCE in Georgia.” How can
we hope for temperance when the
legislature makes it easier to get
liquor? There is talk of building a
new court house here. Should
Clarke county go wet we will
most likely need a new one.
They promised us greater pros
perity. We all know the greatest
prosgerity (we have ever had was
during prohibition days. No one
would call these present days
greater prosperity.
Our government promised us if
we would do away with the 18th
amendment they would protect the
dry statés, yet they have issued
license to sell whiskey by the
hundreds in Georgia—l'm told that
even Athens is not exempdt.
They promised there would be
no saloons. There are 437,501
places retailing alcoholic bever
ages now according to government
records. There were 177,000 sa
loons put out of business by pro
’hibmon in 1920. No saloons? We
have 260,501 more than we had in
‘1920. Chicago today has three
‘tlmes as many saloons as they
‘ever had in the old days. Even
‘the nation’s capital has 490 more
than they ever had before.
The wets promised that drink
ing would be reduced. Govern
ment reports indicate that liquor
consumption is increasing at the
rate of 500,000 gallons per day. It
is estimated that America’s drink
bill for 1937 amounted to $3,750,-
000,000, This does not include the
indirect cost of the victims of the
liquor traffic.
But who expected reduced drink
ing? Certainly not the brewers
and distillers willing to spend mil
lions annually in every conceiva
ple form of advertising to make
Americans—especially women and
young people—drink conscious.
Let us not be fooled, legalized
liquor does not promote temper
ance.
Sincerely,
MRS. H. W. BIRDSONG.

Forestry School
Seeking New
Uses For Cotton
The School of Forestry at The
University of Georgia is cooperat
ing with the Federal Surplug Com
modities Corporation in finding new
uses for cotton.
Under an agreement just com
pleted with "the Corporation the
school will be supplied sufficient
cotton fabric of a special weave to
be used in covering the seed in
the bedg of the Forest School nur
sery .
It is common practice to use
burlap to cover the seed beds in
nurseries, but if cotton can be used
in place of burlap a considerable
quantity of cotton could be utilized
in fores; nurserieg and other plant
nurseries. It is estimated, Director
G. D. Marckworth of the Forestry
school says, that in the South
alone a million square vardg of
cloth could be used annually, with
considerably larger amounts in
sther parts of the country.
