The new building was built to mre for
Tifton’a children for several years to

has been placed in use, including looms
that were considered as a reserve for
future needs. If this growth should be
as pbenomina! for the next two or thru
years as it has been during the past W<

Dr. Wilcox Has Been a Regular Sub

Dr. Jefferson Wilcox, of Willacoochec,
doesn’t think Commissioner Jehu Brauch
has anything on him as u regular sub

Dr. Wilcox p(\|d his first subscription
to the Gazette to B.'T. Allen, May
1893. He has never missed and annual
renewal since, and although he is taking
the daily now ho is tending the weekly
to his brother at Nichols, and says he
exacts to keep it up as Tong aa be lives.
The Gazette has several subscribers
on its list who have been taking the
pajier since the year it started and ap
preciates each one of them as an old and
tried friend. From year *to year a name
now and then ha) been dropped from tho
roll because the subscriber, of 25 or more
yearo standing, had gone to the Groat
Beyond. There is something intimate
and personal in the relations of a. news-

A special meeting of tha County Board
of Education was hold Thursday morn
ing to consider the question of putting
on a special • attendance officer to see to
the enforcement of tho compulsory school
law next poor, and to decide whether
or not Tift eoanty would have a canning
club agent in 1929.
Mr. M. 6. Patten, a member of the
Board of Education and a man espe
cially fitted to fill the position, waa
elected to- the position of Attendance
Officer. It is the purpose of the Board
of Education to see that the law is
rigidly enforced in this county and un
less a legal excuse ia rendered every
child between the ages of eight and four
teen will have to be,in school 120 days
next year.
It waa also unanimously decided to
retain Mra. T. O. Clark aa Canning Club
Agent and no better selection could have
been made. The work done by the club
girls of Tift county is proof
ability.
Mrs. Clark is attending the Home
Economics course at the State College

Jury cases in the United States Court
will probably be completed this after
noon and* members of the traverse jury
will be discharged for the term, says the
Albany Herald of December 17.
One reason that the adjournment of
court has been hastened is that so many
persons have pleaded guilty.
A number of moonshiners entered pleas
this morning and were given shorter sen
tences for doing so. Yesterday after
noon two Tift county men, John Sea
and George Sen, grandson and grandfa
ther, respectively, were convicted of il-
licit distilling. The young man drew
a Sentence of one year and one day,
while the older one received a sentence
of six months and a fine of $100.
