One of the most interesting and profitable teachers institutes ever held in the county was that of last Friday and Saturday in which al most the entire number of Henry’s teachers were enthusiastic attend ants and participants. On Friday Reading, Grammar, Spelling and writing came up as special subjects for discussion, all the papers and talks being thor oughly practical. The papers of Misses Manley and Castellaw on reading being most excellent and both are to be proud in fnll in this week’s issue of the Weekly. The subject of Grammar was very clearly discussed by three of ablest teachers of the county. Messrs. Milam and Watson and Miss Talley, there being many fine and excellent thoughts brought out as to the best methods of correctly teaching this branch of study in the schools. Spelling and writing was ably dis cussed by the several different ones who had been assigned to discuss these subjects. The evening part of the program was presided over by two of the ablest educators of the state, Mrs. G. A. Alexander and Hon. Walker White, of Atlanta, whose! addresses were highly enjoyed by j not only every teacher present but by every one present. Their addresses were along the line of better and more progressive meth ods in the art of teaching. Saturday’s prog ra m wil li the subjects of Geography, School Hygeine, Civics, School Govern- j ment were all clearly and ably > discussed by the respective leaders of the subjects, but Mrs. C. C. Fnr gason’s paper on Hygeine, Piof.j Camp’s discussion of Civics and Prof. Dennington's handling of the subject of school government were features of the' day’s work that deserve special mention. The institute as a whole was a most flattering compliment to Hen-1 ry county and its school system. ! The more than a half hundred teachers of the county are all ex perienced, progressive and alive to the best interests of the work of training the boys and girls of the] county. Its safe to say that no ru-' ral county in the state has a corps of teachers that equals those of Henry, and but few in the city schools that have forged ahead of them in correctly and intellegent ly training the minds of their pu pils. NEGRO KILLS ANOTHER OVER FIVE GENTS. Sunday morning about fonr o’clock a negro garni ling affair ended at Lnella by Henry (Peg) Harj er being killed by Mack Hag man. There was a difference started over the ownership of a nickel and Harper advanced on Hagman with a drawn knife and was doing his best to carve him up when Magnum driew his pistol and fired, the bul let taking effect in the chest, death being utmost instantoneous. The coroner empaneled a jury and after examining several wit nesses the jury rendered a verdict of justifiable homicide and Hag man was allowed to go free. M'DONOUGHITES LEAD IN ATLANTA’S CRUSADE FOR PURER fi/iiLK. Owing to the agitation going on in Atlanta with reference to tho 1 milk supply in that city, the peo ple of McDonough are very much concerned in the Outcome on ac connt of the interest held by some of its citizens. We note from arti cles appearing in the Atlanta pa pers, that the Pure Milk & Food Company, which was owned by some of our townsmen, have sold out to the Union Dairy Company. We understand this new Company is tho outgrowth of the Dairymen’s Union, which is composed of all the dairymen in and around Atlan ta, and the purpose of this new Company is to protect the prices of milk, which goes into effect April 16th, by absorbing all the surplus. To those in a position to know, it has been appearsnt for sometime there was a fight on between the Pure Milk & Food Company and Board of Health, from the fact in the opening of their business refer ence was made to the quality of milk previously served the public, and the responsibility of same nat urally rested on the Board of Health. In support of the conten tion of the Pure Milk & Food Com pany, more stringent laws have been enacted, a rigid system of in spection employed, and the dairy men have united in an effort to improve conditions and protect themselves. So it would appear the people are at last to have good milk through the untiring efforts of the Pure Milk & food Company. Don’t fail to see the New Home Sewing Hachine when in the market for one. It is undcubtly the highest class machine sold and at a price that is no higher than compe titors ask for cheap ones. H. L. Carmichael.
