Survey On
Georgia Education
eorgia Educati
According to a recent survey
made by Starr Miller, Plains
vlle graduate student in the Uni
versity of Georgiu College of
Education, members of the aoun
\ty board f education in Georgia
‘should be selected in electioias by
the people rather than appoint
ment of the grand juries.
Miller reached this concltision
after making a comparative
study of the Alabama method
of = selection where the board
members are elected by the peo
ple, antl the Georgia method
where they are appointed by the
grand jury.
In cooperation with the Geor
gia State Department of Educa
tion, Miller found that the Ala
bama county board members ap
péar to be better qualified thaw
the Georgia county board mem
bers. The study showed /that the
Alabama board membkers have
a median of ten ycars. £in aver
age of 94 per cent of the Alaba
ma members were fourid to be
leaders in community organiza
tons, while only 25 pey cent of
the Georgia group exhibited such
leadership qualities.
Forty-six per cent of the Ala
bama group have ghildren in
public schools while 45 per cent
of the Georgia group have such
partial interest in public educa
tion. In both states the medium
age of board members place
them beyond the age of greatest
productivity. The typical Ala
bama board member is 55 years
old and the Georgia mernber av
erages the age of 53.
To make this study, 72.3 per
cent of the county boards in
Alabama were sudied and 54.8
per cent of the boards in Georgia.

Finde Many Live In Dream World
BY HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK, — (AP) — There
is no shortage of dream worlds
in America.
Back down the road aways I
wrote a piece about the private
dream world I live in when I am
being boreq by people or ought to
be at my work.
; Well, judging from the mail I
’have been getting, there must be
more dream worlds in this coun
try than there is bubble gum.
For all our efficiency and hustle-
Justle we Americans still de
light in shedding the shackles of
ou- routine to romp and gather
wool in mental pastures where
the moon flolers never die.
Many people have written in
to tell me that fun they get out
of day-dreaming. I think theyv are
much mor. healthy minded than
some globe-browed people who
say day dreaming is a pernitious
waste of time. Reveries often lead
to structures more substantial
thap airy castles-in-Spain. They
are also escape valves for bottled
up meanness and frustration. The
man who day dreams rarely goes
mad and bites strangers in a
crowded subway.
Rides Nightmare
The tense man of unresting ac
tion clutters his office walls
with slogans like “THINK!” and
“Do It Now.” But when he goes
to bed he is likely to-ride off on
a wild nightmare who has the bit
in her teeth and gallops' him
down perilous lanes of sea- and
torment. The day dreamer, on|
the other hand, -has placated his
subconscious ming by twilight
and lies down to a restful unbro
ken sleep.
A 50-year-old lady in Char
lotte, N. C., wrote me that all
her life she wanted to be an art
ist, “but poverty saiq ‘no.”” But
when she comes home from work,
she props herself up in bed with
thres pillows and sketches tree
leaves “to draw the fire from my
brain.” ;
She said that thug re-living her
youthful dreams she foung hap
piness but warned: “be carefu!
and don’t lock the door when
vou sink into wvour dream wo~ld.
Remember you are in there a'l
alone and you have to get back
out.”
A young married woman from
Texas wrote she had created a
dream world of her own, center
ing music.
“I never had a chance to study
it,” she said, “and just continued
on dreaming band - musiec and
beautiful waltzes. It's gone on so
THE BANNER-PZRALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
{long that I have decided to start
studying music.”
This lady said that after ten
years of marriage her husband
couldn’t understand her day
dreaming because he dreamed only
at night. He sounds to me like a
direct-actionist.
Another young lady from Wash
ington reported that she crossed
over into her dream ‘world while
sitting in the woods during a re
freshing rain. She is an outdoor
day dreamer, a rugged cousin of
the more conventional, or indoor,
dreamer. Most day dreamers do
not traverse .the /threshhold as.
trance at places where they are
likely to catch pneumonia. /
I am somewhat suspicious of a
Major in California—ah, there’s a
place to dream—who wrote in to
tell me how to accomplish one
of my favgrite dream world pro
jects—to rob the Bank of England.
“(1) One hour before the bank
opens,” he said, “bust the air
conditioning system. ¢ 1
“(2) Drop' poison gas pellets in
to the bank, ;
“(3) Enter with' a gas mask and
shoot everyone with a pistol that
has a silencer on it.
“(4) Take and put all monéy
you can into two briefcases and
leave immediately.
“(5) Stay in hiding for thirteen
vears—then start spending thé
money. !
“(6) Have a good time.”
The Major added in a postseript
that “I have ‘thought ahput the
same thing sometimes.” I am not
so' sure ‘that'l want tc team up
with him in my dream world,

At State Capitol
ATLANTA, Aug %—(AP)—
Two members of the State Agri
cultural and Development Board
disclosed today they will recom
mend elimination of the A. & I
D. Capitql office when the board
meets here next Monday.
J. L. Rilcher of Meigs, EState
purchasing agents said the o fice
had Recomé * “top-heéavy * vith
outside help drawing big salar
ies,” and predicted: ‘“there’ll be
some changes.”
an Allen sr., said “I can see
no reason for the Capitol office,”
and commented trat there was
duplication of service since the
main office 'of the board was
moved here ivom Athens.
Gov. Thompson, himself, le-|
clified specuiation but the Gover
nor said Aug. 4 he would have
“some defini%e recommendations
to make” when the full board
meets Aug. 11.
The Capitol office of the A. & 1.
D. board came under fire three
wéeks aio' when' Herman Tal
madge charged in hi politicai
weekly, the Satsman, that it
‘housed a staff oi “pers->n«y pub-
Llicity agents” for Gov. Thompson
lat.a cost .to the taxpayers of
- $28,000 a year.
This was denied by Basil Stock
bridge, director of the office, and
by Gov, Thompson, but shortly
afferward there was further con-
Aroversy over an A. & I. D. board
field agent, Sid Williams. He was
disclosed so be . drawing $350
\frpm the state plus another S3OO
plus commissions as full-time se
cretary to the Georgia Press As
saciation. Finally, on Aug. 1, State
Auditor B. E, Thrasher jr., re
ported financial irregularities in
the Capiol office of the board,
including failure to remit with
holding taxes to the U. S. gov
ernment and excessive disburse
ments for expense accounts.
Besides Stockbridge and Wil
liams, three other former news
paper men are on the State pay
roll in the A. & 1. D. Capitol of
fice: They include Dewitt Rob
erts, said by Talmadge to have
helped Ellis Afnall write his re
cent book; Lamar Ball one-time
writer for the Atlanta Consti
tution and Walter Patrick Kelly,
former Macon reporter. i
Would Continue Jobs
There was no indication how
ever, that elimination of the A. &
I. D. Capitol office would result
in dismissal of the staff. Informed
sources said other jobs would be
found for them in the Thompson
administration. Basil Stockbridge
probably will return to the plan
ning division of the A. & LD.
Board where he previously served
and Roberts likely will become
Deputy Commissioner of Concer
vation. Ball may be returned to
the Military Department payroll
to continue writing a war history
of Georgia.
If Williams should be ousted
as Field Secretary of the Georgia
Press Association, at the Asso
ciation meeting in Savannah, he
likewise would remain on the
state payroll. However, there was
speculation that he might find
elimination of iue Capitor office
as a suitable moment to make an
exit, thus, devoting his time sole
ly to the GPA,
Other members of the A. & I.
D. board either withheld com
ment or said they had no imme
diate recommendations. Mayor
Charles L. Bowden of Macon,
however, commented: “I don’t
think the board should be mixed
up-in. polities in any way. Politi
cally biased employes would be
unable to' do an impartial job.”

of Agriculture, Washington, D. e

WhatToDo
For That Sluggish,
Down-and-Out
Feeling
Remember the time when you could eat
like 2 horse, bubbled-aver with energy,
felt happy as a lark? Was it not becatuse
you liked to eat—didn’t know what in
digestion was, felt strong as an ox? As
age advances the “old stomach and the
ever-changing blood” need help. Now
you may again reléase vibrant energy
to every muscle, fibre, cell.
Every day—every hour—millions of
tiny red-blood-cells must pour forth
from the marrow of your hones to re
place those that are worn-out. A low
blood count may affect you in several
ways: no appetite, underweighf, ne
energy, a run-down condition, lack of
resistance to infection and disease.
To §et real relief you must keep up
your blood strength. Medical authorities,
by analysis of the blood, have by posi
tive Prood shown that SSS Tonic is
amazingly effective in building up low
blood strength in nonm-organic nutri
tional anemia. This is due to the SSS
Tonic formula which contains special
and potent aetiyating ingredients.
Also, 888 Tonic helps you enjoy the
food you eat by increasing the gastric
digestive juice when it it non-organi
cally too little or scanty-thus the qbtmn
ach. will have little .cause to get. alky
with gas, bloat and give off that sour
food taste.
Don’t waitt Energize your body with
rich, red-blood. Start on SSS Tonic now.
As vigorous blood. surges throughout
your whole body, greater freshness and
strength should make you eat better,
gleep hetter, feel hetter, work better,
play better, have a healthy color glow in
your skin—firm flesh fill- out hollow
gtaces. Millions of bottles sold. Get a
ttle from your drug store. BSS Tonic
helps Build Sturdy Health, &
