THE TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.
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.
