important topics were discussed, iu-
cludmg spelling, reading, primary
Arithmetic and couducl. There was
a fair attendance and and all express

year. A full attendance is desired

cussed and arranged. The meeting
will be at the court house on the 25th

BY MISS LYTL$ GHOLSON.
Children, study at home, even if
you are in school every day, study at
night. Parents, urge “home study”
with your children. Try to excite
n them the great importance of an
education.
There arc a vast number of chil
dren who are in school at least ten
months per year, and there arc a vast
number who have uo school privi
leges whatever but are far ahead of
those who attend school very regu
larly. Of course there are some
children who have the bestadvantagi-
ot their school days who have real
ized the good of and use their time
to the best interest, but these are
very few.
If you will notice, nine-tenths of
the children who are are deprived ol
all school advantages whatever are
the ones who have a hunger for an
education. I say, nine times out ol
ten they are the most energetic and
ambitious children of the lime. Con
sequeutly, they devote their whole
time and talent to their studies, and
soon by perseverance master the art
of educating self.
Il gratifies me to encourage pupils
who are -deprived of their rights
along this line. Therefore, I say,
don’t become discouraged but just
put your shoulder to the wheel and
shove right ahead and victory is si re
ly yours. Just think of Abrah m
Lincoln, though he wda a poor lad-
split rails to build his father’sfence—
yet he arew to lie a noble man, and
soon won the highest position the
United States could afford. Think
how poor Benjamin Franklin was,
and he g r ew in honor and fame. It
was said that “lie was the most dis
tingulshed statesman ot his time.”
In fact an of our men of note came
from poor parentage. So friends, let’s
not be discouraged but let’s be hon
est, soberminded, and push forward
to the mark of our “high calling in
this world, ever forgetting the past
and seeking what the future has in
store for us. Seeking not the riches
of this woild but adopting the old
•Fireside System’ of study which in
dudes a great deal of moral culture,
and lay up for ourselves treasures in
heaven.”

from the Atlanta Journal.
The common school teachers of
Georgia tor years past have eudured
hardships which should never have
been imposed upon them.
They get small pay. That in it
self is a hardship. But few of them
have beeu able to realize even the
meager compensation which is allow
ed them. The full amouut has beeu
paid to them, it if true, -but il has
been paid in a way that compelled
the great majority of the teachers to
discount their sajaries, in many casis
very heavily, iu order to obtain tbe
money that was actually necessary
to enable them to meet their living
expenses. Teachers who were unable
to wait until tbe fall for their pay
have sold their suript, and usually
have had to pay a heavy per cent
for advances thus secured, but which
they were compel'ed to have. A
large measure of relief has been ex
tended to the teachers by the ous
tom of using temporarily for their
benefit the public property fund in
the state treasury; that is the money
which has accumulated Lora the
sale of property belonging to tire
state. The constitution requires that
this money shall go to the payment
of the bonded debt of tbe state, but
repeatedly the attorney general has
given it as his opinion that this fund
can lie used temporarily in the pay
ment of teachers’ silanes, the sura
thus used to be repaid out of the
taxes for the current year.
This has been the practice in Geor
gia for several years and no objec
tion to it has been made, nor any
question of its legality raised until
State Treasurer Park, who is mw
serving his first term, announced that
he did not consider it legal to use
any part of the public property fund
for the payment of the teachers. At
toruey General Terrell difiiers with
.lie 8 .ale treasurer iu his construction
of the law on this question and the
matter must be decided by the sup
reme court.
If the state treasurer is right and
the attorney general is wrong on this
legal question it is very unfortunate
that the state has no provision for
the payment of its teachers until next
fall.
It is very unfortunate that they
are without means of support except
the precarious and expeusive method
of selling their script, * transaction
which at best involves a serious di
minution of their net pay.
The slate’s debt to its teachers ie
as sacred a debt as it owes, or ever
can owe. The teachers ol Geirgia’s
public school are faithful and devoted
public servants and entitled to as
much uonsideiation as any other
creditors ol the state actual, or pos
sible.
As we have said, it is most unfor
tunate if we are to have a construc
tion of the law which will deprive
them of prompt pay, condemn them
to a long and costly wait for their
salaries—a construction different
frorli that which has hitherto been
recognized and is now recognized as
legal by the state’s legal adviser and
iipou which tile state’s trearurer has
hitherto consistently acted.
