It is well enough to remember that at
the convention whjch will be called by
the Mayor for the purpose oi nominating
the town officials for another year, it will
also be necessary to nominate three new
members to fill vacancies which will oc
cur on the board of education. We put

Has He Gone There to See Jndge
Mershon 1
Health officer Brunner went up to At
lanta last night He left quietly, and
hut few were aware that he was going to
the capital. Much interest is felt as to
what he will say to Jndge Mershon in
case they meet, as is very probable. It
is understood that the doctor will en
deavor to show up the bad features of
the state board of health. It was in a
