Col. Albert It. Lamar, of

the brain. Col. Lamar was the
Editor of the Macon Telegraph
six years, assuming that responsibili
ty m 1881, after which he was con
nested with the Macon Evening
News until the time of his illness.
We publish, in this issue cf T
Headlight, t. e speech of J Ion. W Y.
Atkinson of Newmin, which
delivered before the Teacher's As.-o
ciation, at Athens, during the last
session of that body.
He deals in a clear and limbi man
ner with one of the mo:?L impor«fi!il
live issues of Lite day; and we trust
t-hc subject of bettor methods, better
teidiers, and better school facilities
generally will be agitated, until
something substantial and effective
will take the place of the shamelessly
slopshop methods now so much in
vogue in this state.
Inferior text books, inoiferont ac
cominodaliens, grabsalary and ignor
ant teachers, in some instances,
rapidly sinking the noble profession
of teaching into disrepute, mining
private schools, and leaving our
noble young people in a helpless con- j
dition as far as the plain practical
business affairs of life are concerned.
The State needs to observe in an
earnest manner the Spartan proverb;
‘•Teach your boys and girls what they
should practice when they become
men and women.”
We hope Mr. Alkinson will intro
duce Ins bill, and that it may become
a law. Not only this, but Georgia
needs to encourage, in a most sub
stantial manner the cause of true
Education in her limbs.
