Qn or before the first Wednes-
eaeh school month a report
will be filled out and sent
for inspection. This card
will show the standing of your
child in all subjects taught him
apid also his attitude towards
1 work as well as his con-
in school.
If a pupil should make D or E
dfsubject, it should be made a
matter of immediate inquiry.
Possibly it is to be attributed to
a lack of study, \ to irregular
attendance, or to some other
cause wjhich may be removed or
corrected.
JSpecial attention is called to
the serious consequence of Ir
regular Attendenance. The loss
ompnly a few lessons often proves
m to the hopes and interest of
boy or girl and then the
er wonders why the child is
not interested or why he i3 not

good cause for the absence or
diness should always be sent

Want National Park
For North Georgia
Washington, November 15. —
Representative Gordon Lee, of
thp seventh district of Georgia,
is preparing and will introduce
in Congress this week a bill set
ting aside the government’s
forest reservation in North
Georgia as a national park, with
all of the reereation, hunting and
fishing priveliges and govern
ment road and other develop
ments that go with such a federal
recognition.
Congressman Lee, who is the
poly sout.hen? member of the
Rational forestry commission, of
which Secretary of War Weeks
is chairman, is preparing this
measure in conduction with
government forestry officials,
and a vigorous campaign will be
waged at once to pass the bill.
The government now owns
more than 100,000 acres of the
most heautiful mountain lands in
North Georgia, in the seventh
and ninth districts, in which are
spots of scenery and unique
mountain attractions equal to
those of the famous national
parkte of the inter-mountain
states along the Pacific slope-
Among these i»v the second
highest water fall in America, a
small area of the second highest
rainfall in America, some of the
most beautiful mountain streams
including hilltop lakes ant}
picturesque canyons and far-
reaching green valleys.
Under the. recently enacted
federal road bill $15,000.000 is
set aside for the new year for
surfaced roads ir. goyenaent
forest reservations. In addition,
the forest reservation bill sets
aside 35 per cent of the gros.-
receipts from the sale of all
timber for road purposes, and ?
recent amendment makes it
possible" for the government,
through the forestry commission,
to lease at a nominal lerdal of
$10 a year, certain rites in these
reservations for recreational
purposes, under stipulated re
strictions and to applicants who
can qualify under the law.
If the federal reservation in
Georgia should be declared a
national park by congress then
the department of forestry co
ordinating with the secretary of
war, would prepare a program
for government development in
keeping with the legitimaterecre
ational demands made. The Lee
bill will stipulate that the
secretary of war shall proceed.

^e'th^Trjbupe,
A Drunk-
There is on exhibition at the
store of Mr. J. T. Loed, 379 Oak
street, what is reporoed tp j>e an
“ordinary” hen’s egg with an
“extraordinary” and unpsual
exterior, for people who have
seen it say that upon its shell is
traced in perfect outline the fig
ure of a devil, holding alyft a
serpent in one hand and grasping
a pitchfork in the other, Op the
other side is the picture ojf the
“little brown jug” famous in
song and story once, while its
alcoholic contents are bqt a
menjqry, and the “skull and
cross-hones" associated witlj too-
freqqent indulgences of visitors
to . the jug are plainly ^een.
There is also outlined upon the
shell a picture of a dice, and
many see in this combination a
a solemn warning to all that
even a little wine for the
stomach’s sake” is not good.
Mr. Lord states that the egg
was found Sunday by a neighbor
while removing eggs from a nest
in his barnyard, and that its pe
culiar coloring attracted his at
tention and caused him to make
the remarlytble fihd. More tj\an
400 people are estimated to haye
called at the store Tuesday to
see the freak.

Robinson C rusoe Was
Successful 'Advertiser
“Whoever thought of Robinson
Crusoe as a successful adver
tiser?”
“Yet l.e was, as histcry
proves. He knew whpthe wait
ed—a ship—ard put up an pd
for one. He flung a shirt qn a
pole at the top of his island; that
in the language of the sea. was
plain vo every seafaring man-
“The circulation was small —
there was no other medium—but
Crusoe kept at it, despite the
fact that he got no inquiries for
a long time. He changed his
capy—as one garment after an
other was friyt d out and in the
end got what he wanted.
‘‘But had he taken down that
signal after a time and declared
advertising doesn’t pay’ where
would Crusoe and his story be
today?”
Borne one was showing a
cabbage snake on the streets the
other day and some think they
areposion but if you will read
the following letter from W. V.
Reed, State Etomologist. yop
will learn they are harmless.

Mr. J. V. Arrendale,
Clayton, Ga.
Dear Sir:
The specimen you mailed
to us is what is known as the
Cabbage Snake. You frequently
them in cabbage, but they
are perfectly harmless.
Yours very truly,
