Daugherty, well known throughout Mercer amt Sumner coun ties, \\\ Ya., most likely owes his life to the kindness of n neighbor. He was almost hopelessly afflicted with diar rhoea ; was attended by two physicians who gave him little, if any relief, when a neighbor learning of his serious con dition. brought him a bottle of Cham berlain’s Colic.

MAT TICKS mSCL’SSEI). On invitation of Chancellor Hill, the County Superintendent’s meeting held in Augusta in May, adjourned to meet at Athens on the 10, 11, and 12th inst. A majority of the Superintend ents roomed at the dormitory and at<* at the mess-hall of the ('Diver sity. Board atone dollar per day, and as good as any hotel in the city. Prof. Snelling is devoting all his spare time, free of charge, to this department to make it possible for any boy of limited means to attend the University. I roomed with Mr. I). P. Hill, of Monroe county, who told me that twenty-seven years ago when he was at the University he paid ten dollars per month tuition and twenty-seven dollars per month board. The next year he roomed at the dormitory and paid fifteen dollars per month for board. Now students can get board for eight and a half dollars per month, and tuition is free. There is nothing now to keep boys and girls from getting a collegiate education if they have the foundation for an education properly laid and have the am bition to persevere. Nearly all colleges have what is called a loan fund from which students can bor row and pay back when they get through. To think of these supe rior advantages it makes me want to live my life over again. It is a very poor hoy that can’t make a better man than his father. This meeting was held princi pally at the request of Dr. Butt rick, secretary of the General Educational Board. In order that this Board might find out the educational condition of Georgia, over one hundred printed ques tions were prepared and given to each superintendent to he an swered by him in writing. These questions and answers will be sent to this board for future use. Many of their questions were discussed at length in our meet ing, and I think will do a great deal of good. There were some that thought they could see tho “cat in the meal tub.” Hut 1 think Dr. Butlrick convinced the most of us that the motives of the hoard were good. Ho illustrated what his hoard wanted to do by saying: “Near Albany, N. Y., there is a very steep grade, up which, there is not an engine made that can pull a train of loaded cars. Hut a little dusty, dingy engine, that is not allowed to ring its bell or toot its whistle, is put behind these cars and easily pushes them up the grade and then backs out of the wav without making any fuss about what it has done.” Dr. But-trick makes no promises to any one, but pat iently hears requests from all, has every word taken down by his stenographer, and when he goes back to New York will state every case as it was given to him. lie has had, already, eighty-six petitions from different schools in Georgia. He intimated that only about five would be helped for the present. They do not propose to help any community that does not try to help itself. Neither will they give any help toward building a school house, unless assurance is given that a good school will be kept up after the house is built. 1 am afraid they will not do much in Georgia unless our con stitution is amended so that each county can have local taxation without so much “red tape.” Every other southern state has better School laws than Georgia. Florida pays two dollars to Geor- giaone towards education. Hence she has a nine months’ school. 1 think we have about as large an appropriation from the state as we are likely to get. and if we get any more it will have to come by local taxation, either by county or incorporated districts. I think the county should be the unit. As our school houses are now located, a school district can hardly be incorporated with out encroaching upon the territory of some other school, and thus I create hard feelings, and a great deal opposition. The small amount we get from the state has caused the majority of patrons to quit | paying any tuition at all. We must have more money, in some wav, if we ever educate our child ren. R. I). Adams.

THE BARNESVILLE NEmwIKLzEI fe, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25,1902. OUR CORRESPONDENTS. Association at Bluff Spring. The association at this place of ; Primitive baptists continued three days, and was largely attended by members of other denominations. IThe Methodist and the Congre gationalists increased the number greatly, and they appeared to feel and enjoy themselves as though they were at a meeting of their own. Ido not think that a mere difference of opinion on theologi cal questions should even have a tendency to alienate the affections of one person from another, for we are commanded to love our neighbor as ourselves, and that is fullfilling the law. I wish to say that I am surpris ed when I hear a man say at this [enlightened age of the world, that he is seeking and trying to find the true church of Christ. Why, the church of Christ is as accessi ble at one part of the world as another, and he who embraces Christ has not only found the true church, but has actually entered into it. J. B.
