NOTE.—If you bought this house on the usual plant and paid down even so little as $500 cash, giving a mort gage for the balance of $2,000, you would in five years have paid eight hundred dollars in interest and at the expiration of that time still owe two thousand dollars That you can buy this house on the small monthly payments of only thirty dollars a month, is because I am figuring the interest at half the usual custom hereabouts. Just think, by paying very little more than a house usually rents for, you have a home practically paid for in five years. The small mortgage of $600 with interest and taxes will make only about six dollars a month. 0. C. EARLE, 353 Third St. Phone 77 THERE to be attended to.

CHAPMAN’S GOOD REPORT MADE TO BOARD OF EDUCATION THE 8CHOOL 8Y8TEM IN THE BE8T OF CONDITION — APPLI CANTS FOR THE NIGHT 8CHOOL —MACON'8 PART IN THE RE CENT EDUCATIONAL CONVEN- TION. Supt. Chapman makes monthly re ports of his transactions In office, the enrollment, condition of the schools, etc., and these reports. In connection with his recommendations and now and then his observations of educa tional matters are cot only lntereatlnt to the members of the board, but to the general public. Extracts are given below of hla re port made to the board on last Tues day night, and among other Item* la news of the night school which will be of Interest to many who are In terested In this school. In part, the report is as follows: "The organization of the schools for the year 1908-9 has been perfected and conditions are satisfactory. “With rare exceptions, this state ment means that the attitude of the public toward the system la flne, and that the people are satisfied with what Is being dono for their children; that the best methods of Instruction pro- vail: that the teachers are working earnestly, conscientiously; that puplla trained to work from right motives nre applying themselves diligently to their tasks; that harmony prevails among the teachers themselves and that mutual good will exists between teachers and parents; It means finally and chiefly that in the division of la bor Incident to a complete system, everybody Is responsible for some par ticular task and Is glvng It serious at tention. “The schools show an Increase In en rollment of 108 above aamo date last year. “Instructed by the board at the last meeting to Investigate the demand for a night school, I advertised In the dally papers and requested the prin cipals of the different schools to ad vertise through their older pupils. The late Mr. C. B. Willingham and Mr. Walter Hanson cheerfully promised to bring the matter of the night school to the attention of factory employes through their foremen. “As a result 24 applicants (II boys and 3 girls) have presented themselves at the office. In every case except three, both parents are living. All of these boya and girls are at work, and all have received more or less school ing. Two stopped in the second grade, four In the fourth, two In the fifth, five in the elxth. five In the eeventh. four in the eighth two In the ninth. It would be possible to provide a profitable course of study which would reduce the number to three grades. “In hla address of welcome Gover nor Hoke Smith made the assertion, that the recent convention of the So- duty for the Advancement of Indus trial Education was the moet Impor tant educational gathering ever had In the south. It was attended by prominent educators and manufactur ers from all sections of tho couptry. men representing the practical as well as the teoretlcal side of the subject. “The Ideas most distinctly brought out In tho discussions were: • “1. Tho cultural as well ns the practical value of manual training. *3. Th«j Importance *of providing for the advanced grades lines of work leading to several vocations. “3. The apprentice system under which the real practice work should be done In the shops and factories. “An exhibit of school work from Macon was sent to tho convention In charge of Miss Weacott.
