DR. HARDMAN SAYS:
“The Business of the State is a Gigantic Public Trust. The Business
of Every Citizen Is to See That It Is Intrusted to Men of Business Ability
Who Have Demonstrated It in the Management of Their Own Affairs.”

has been saved to the poor people of Georgia by the beneficent provisions of this one act.
l)r. Hardman was also author of the law providing for free distribution of diphtheric
antitoxin, which has saved 10,000 children from the ravages of diphtheria, and vast
-ants of money to the people. . , , . ,
He introduced a measure looking to ttie free treatment of tuberculosis, and advo
. , toil and worked for the bill establishing the State Tuberculosis Sanitarium at Alto.
He was author of the bill regulating professional nursing: introduced the first vital
statistics bill in Georgia; advocated and worked for the creation of ttie State Board
H * was author of Georgia's first prohibition law. the famous Hardman-Covington
•l hill of 1907, which first banished the legalized liquor traffic from his native State,
cl coupled his name forever with Christian statesmanship.
He was author of the bill extending suppression of diseases among livestock, which
•cans the saving of a million dollars each year in Georgia; he advocated a drainage
cm mission, with a view to the reclamation of the 2.700.000 acres of waste lands In
lie State; and in 1907 he advocated ami introduced a bill to create a state highway
•nmisston, which the Federal Government required the State to establish ttiis year,
v lie was author of the law requiring that agriculture and civil government be taught
n tee common schools of Georgia. Read the following extract from an address delivered
•efore the County School Superintendents' Association at Macon, May 11, 1905, by Dr.
i. M. Parks, President of the Georgia Normal and Industrial College, Milledgeville,
-raising the Legislature for the enactment of this measure. Said he;
"In my opinion this will prove in the years to come to tie the most important legisla
iou of the session of the General Assembly of 190S. The measure was passed quietly
nd a itlrout public notice. It did not receive a one-hundredth part of the publicity
ven to the convict lease question and yet it probably means much more for Georgia.
; did not attract a one hundredth part of the attention given to the Cnifomi Text-Book
ill and vet in Its far-reaching effects it is probably destined to exercise greater influence
enriching the State and in properly modifying our educational theories and practices.
"The legislator voted for this law. no doubt thinking it would be a means of
a- roving the farms of Georgia; but the modern educator believes that it will serve
t only for the improvement of the farms of Georgia but also for the improvement
the hoys of Georgia: he sees not only a practical but also an educational value in
i. \ einent: he sees a movement which answers to the sociological demands of exiuca
well as to the psychological.’’
rV lowing this law of 190S. and following this address of 1905. tliere was a great
' of discussion of agricultural education. In 1908. th< I egisl. ture established the
Georgia Agricultural. Industrial and Normal College, the electn district ugricul
