« BETTER EDUCATION FOR GEORGIA MOVEMENT
X By RALPH L. RAMSEY, Director
For many years it has been the
custom in most states to celebrate
on October 12th the discovery of
America. In 1937, the Georgia leg
islature designated this day for gen
eral observance, but, in the main,
little recognition to Columbus has
been given in our state. This year
there will be a two-fold celebration.
The discovery of youth by Georg
ians will parallel the discovery ot
our country by the great Italian sea
man.
General Movement
When the better Education for
Georgia movement announced a
month ago that this would be done
there was an immediate response
from many interested sources. The
Atlanta Georgian ran a special ed
itorial the following day. The At
lanta League of Women Voters, and
the Georgia League also, offered its
complete cooperation. The Kiwanis
State organization, the American
Legion, the Knights of Columbus
and the weekly press have all got
ten behind the movement. The lo
cal paper has already responded Sr.
a gratifying manner by aiding with
necessary publicity.
Organization by Comities
The general plan is to hold a
Citizenship Day in every county and
town in Georgia. In some 70 coun
ties, coordinators have already been
appointed. It will be their job to
round up all young men and young
women who have reached their ma
jority this year. In Georgia, of
course, this Is age 21. Handbooks
will be distributed informing these
youths of the rights and duties to
which they have fallen heir as citi
zens of the American democracy. It
is hoped that each community will
do all it can to lionize these boys
and girls on the threshold of life—
to the effect that Citizenship will
lake on the splendid meaning that
our forefathers meant it to have.
President Roosevplt
Negotiations are now taking place
to have President Roosevelt speak
to all gatherings by radio in a state
wide hook-up. And if it can be ar
ranged. it is hoped that the Presi
dent will make a special trip to
Georgia for the occasion. There will
be ample reason for national recog
nition as Georgia will be the firs'
state in the union to recognize “ci*
So He'll Try Again
A blond flapper called at the
hospital the day after the acciden,.
“I want to see the young man
who was injured in the auto wreck
last night.”
“Are you the girl who was with
! him?” asked the nurse.
“Yes,” was the reply, “and I
I thought it was only right to come
and give him the kiss he was try
ign for.”

new demand for more comfort In
sleep-wear, they have developed an
abbreviated pajama suit, the trou
sers of which are cut off slightly
above the knee. The new unit has
various advantages . . . it’s .cooler,
of course, on sultry nights. More
comfortable, too.
la Your Suit Guaranteed?—Follow
ing the lead of the shirt trade,
some enterprising manufacturers of
boys’ and young men's suits now
give a guarantee for one year with
each suit. Speaking as a mere man
we would call that a step in the
right direction. The idea has been
so well received that it may extend
to the men’s suit field generally.
izenship” in this fashion on a state
wide scale.
Enormous Task
The job of organizing programs in
every Georgia community is the
largest ever undertaken by any state
organization. To do it effectively, it
will take the cooperation of every
person connected with the schools,
churches, and civic organizations
Everyone is invited to do his or her
part. Anyone with any ideas as to
various parts of the program or
celebration is urged to communicate
with the Better Education for Geor
gia movement, 403 Walton Building.
Atlanta.
Congressmen and Senators
Along with the county and local
celebrations plans are being made
to ask all Georgia Congressmen and
Senators to have a part in observ
ance of the day. All of Georgia's
living ex-Governors will participate
in one fashion or another. In the
larger cities, there will be parades.
It is also hoped that the theaters of
the state will all show a picture
that will be appropriate to the cele
bration of the day, with some sort
of concession to theater patrons who
are reaching this majority. This will
not be difficult; some theaters have
made a habit in the past of keep
ing up with the birthdays of the
town's citizens and giving passes as
a token of remembrance. News-reel
cameras will be on hand in an effort
to stimulate other state* to follow
Georgia’s lead.
School’s Part
By and large the bulk of the re
sponsibility of the undertaking will
be on the shoulders of school ad
ministrators, trustees, and school
P'trons. The Parent-Teacher Asso
ciation is expected to have a large
part in making Citizenship Day suc
cessful. Local boards may wish to
use their facilities in bringing to
gether all those who have reached
the age of 21. At this point, it may
be urged that the Better Education
Movement urges that local com
munities take the initiative in pro
viding for local celebrations. How
ever, we would like to be continu
ously informed as to the progress
that is being made. In this way, our
office will act as a clearing house
and will thus be able to assist with
state or national publicity.

second purpose, it was merely to
call attention to a grave national
problem—the need for competent
government service which will re
cruit the best men available to
manage the public business. We
believe there is no problem so
often ignored and so funda
mentally pressing.”
After telling how the term,
"brain trust,” originated with the
j at e Louis McHenry Howe, the
authors note that by now the
"New Deal intellectuals are no
mer e brain trust. They are a well
defined group of four hundred and
more ab!e men ' The leaders are
moUs ly detested by the leading

The authors feels that the “New

Book of Nature from which man
ar too seldom reads. In common
with man, trees are divided into
families and tribes. They breathe,
eat, drink.water, and by the.ie
functions each tree produces suf
ficient energy to support its own
manufacturing plant. The air and
the soil are their cupboards. The
roots, feeding at Mother Nature’s
i breast, gather water and mineral
salts. Here a sap Is formed that
makes its way to the leaves,
conveying these elements for a
strange process that goes on there.
Because the leaves do the breath
ing, they are often referred to as
the lungs of a tree. Oxygen is
exhaled and carbon-acid gas is in
haled. With Old Sol serving as
a power plant, the leaves are con
verted into starch factories. These
busy little plants, unconcerned
with wage-hour disputes, work

John Muir, has urged other men
