for thvmsclves their intention was to make an honest living.
Ml To be honest, they determined to give in every instance full
value received. To give that value they recognized the fact that
Mi V nothing but abso'utc thoroughness in preparing students for their
life work could bring that result.
They determined to make their courses of study as thorough

, as possible. and daily
Their experience of 15 years in the school room,
iv! con I ac ^ with business life of the community enabled them to judge
,* what was best in all that pertains to shorthand, bookkeeping and

TfTB typewriting and they have chosen none but the very best, notwith

M” X of time, though it is certainly the shortest in the end.
They have been in the business college profession long enough
to Know that short and easy systems of shorthand, and short and

Nor do they desire that patronage which insists upon success

JLetter From the Philippine
Islands.

Enterprise Covington, Ga.
Dear Mr. Editor: So many myth-1
ical things have come to my mind
through articles in magazines and
|»:'nouicals recently until one can i
noj but be amused as well as be-j
■coxae a i » bit” incredulous because |
the conditions and customs here
among the Filipinos are so different
from what they are in the home
land it is to express it in a mild
term quite amusing to an ‘ old
tnner” in the Philippines (as
exiles express it.) The articles
■were written by people, some of
them of national lame who had
really spent a few weeks in Manjja
and made a hurried trip to soij/e
the adjoining towns and while
there met by the leading and
wealthy men putting their best
and more cautious foot forward,
being entertained as they would
eatertain a king or a member of a
royal family, knowing nothing of
- the middle class but as told
by the “thite.” One living :u

Manila and who has ..nly paid an
occasional visit to the Province n<l
joining thereto can write the best
and tho most optimistic articles
founded on facts as they see them
and be conscientious in so doing.
At present, the Philippine govern
ment is paying all of her own ex
pens-^s with the exception of the
military, and if they were at home
t | ie Washington government must
pay them anyway, so what are we
losing? And at the same time
how much are we benefitting the
Filipinos? They have as much in¬
dependence here today as anyone
has m America or can have in any
rep ublic—even more freedom than
j sometimes think they should
have, because I fear that they are
not accepting it in a judicial man
ner but would if they were capa
hie. The ‘‘agitators” are the only
ones here clamoring for independ- !
e nce, and they are trying to lead
the ignorant by making great and
glorous promises, something like
“giving the nesro a mule and forty
acr es of land.” At present and

ence to the Filipinos would be as
detrimental to their welfare as to
hi
give a two-year-old child a razor.
I make this statement because I
have the.good and welfare of the
Filipinos at heart I do not feel
that i should go into details of the
management of our government
here because the conditions are
such that it would not prove in¬
teresting to anyone in the home
land who has so little interest in
the Philippines as the average
American seems to have. I trust
that, neither of the grand old par¬
ties will, in their next campaign
or platform, mention the Philip¬
pines, because in so doing you are
doing the Filipino unintentional
harm. Let Congress deal with
them through the recommendation
of men who have been here and
are capable of making such recom
mendations. The Philippines,
with aifapf their glory and fame
for me, are nothing to compare to
dear old Georgia and Newton coun
ty where, on my return to the
States, I expect to live and die,
trusting that by living there I may
benefit my county—join the co
workers to promote her interest
and welfare. I read the Enter
prise with much interest and es
pecially the educational depart¬
ment and Dr. Moore’s articles.
May he live long and be appreci¬
ated for his good deeds while liv
ing. i am an advocate ot gprink

best wishes to all, I remain

A Needed Institution.
The Medical Association of Geor¬
gia is making a great effort to help
the people to lessen the ravages of
Consumption, and to this end a
bill will he introduced at this ses
sion of the legislature by Dr. L
Hardeman, of Commerce, and Hon.
Clem Dunbar, of Augusta.
The bill was approved by the
Medical Association of Georgia at
its recent meeting in Savannah,
and therefore has the united medi¬
cal profession of the state support¬
ing it.
The object of the bill is to fur¬
nish an institution, of suitable pro¬
portions, for tjie accommodation
of those who have tuberculosis in
the early, curable stage, It is also
desired to make the institution as
far self-sustaining as possible. Be
sides filling the great need for a
hospital for the cure of tuberculo
sis it would meet still a greater
need, that oi spreading among the
people a correct understanding of
this disease and the problems it
presents.
