THE CARTERSVILLE NEWS
CARTERSVILLE, GA., AUGUST L\*s, ipiT
Em GUMS
FILED WITH BOARD
Dependent Wives, Mothers
And Children Cause Of
Many Claims.
The local lxxard is working every
day. They have called for examination
previous to the call for this week 619
persons. Of this number about 25 have
failed to report in person. Some of
this number have secured transfers to
other boards in various parts of the
country, a few are sick, two have died
since registering, and a number are
totally unaccounted for. These names
are required by the rules to be report
-1 ed to the department of justice.
Out of the number already examined
106 persons have been certified to the
district board as physically qualified
■ and not exempted or discharged. Sev
; era! mote names will be added to this
| list from these previously examined.
About 75 per cent file claims for dis
charge oil account of rela
tives. These claims are investigated
as well as can he done without a spec
ial investigator. Any discharge grant
ed is subject to lie revoked by the
local board at any time, and will he
done should satisfactory proof he sub
mitted under oath showing that the
claim is without metfit. Bartow’s quota
.after allowing a credit for those en
listed from this county before July U
is 299. From the’ experience so far, it
looks like approximately 1,200. names
will be exhausted before the quota is
obtained.
Very few married men have failed
to get discharges. The law requires
strict conformity to the rules and reg
ulations. It ;is the purpose and inten
tion of the board to conform strictly
to the requirements, without partial
ity, doing justice to all. so fgr as is
humanly possible. That the hoard will
make some mistakes goes without say
ing. ami that •in some instances they
v. ill be imposed on by false proof
without the board having any know
ledge of the true facts is to be ex
pected. If any one will furnish the
board information under oath, or pro
cure sworn proof, tending to show
that a discharge has been allowed
wrongfully, the case will be investi
fiated, and the discharge revoked if
the beard becomes satisfied an error
has been made Same claims have been
denied when the board, if acting ac
cording to their personal feelings,
would have granted a discharge. Tin
rules require the board to deny claims
in cases of doubt, thus denying to the
board the opportunity of resolving the
doubt in favor of the claimant.

EUHAREEE SCHOOL 11
READ! ID BE OPENED
Under Changed Manage
ment And Fine Teachers
Selected.
The Rural High school will
open for Its fourth year on September
5. This school is prepared to, temlei
better service to its patrons and
friends than ever, before.
The question of finance has always
been a difficult one for the county
board of education so recently the
property has been transfered to a
group of friends and supporters of the
school, this body of men assuming Die
financial responsibility for the school
and electing a managing - board of
trustees, who will develop and deter
mine the trolley of the school, the
■ >nnfy board giving to this managing
board its hearty support in its efforts
1c build for the county a good rural
h’uh schorl.
This re-organization places the school
on the strongest footing it has ever
la en and makes it possible for it to
grow more rapidlv than under its for
mer organization.
This re-organization was not • -er
manentlv arranged until recentiv,
lienee it has been impossible to get
the school as prominently before tlu
ptople its importance deserves but
announcement is now made that i' is
ready for business, and that it will
open September 3 with the strongest
rganization that it ha.- ever had.
The faculty Is second to none for
tliistyipe of school. Mr. Henry Milam
will manage the business, side of the
school and have the general oversight
of the work.
The board has secured Prof. A. V.
Folsom of Manchester, Liu., as prin
cipal. Air. Folsom comes highly recom
mended as a school builder and he is
qualifies* far the work he has agreed
to do and comes determined to render
the very best service possible.
Miss Ethel Mosteller, cue of the
best teachers in the county, lias ac
cepted a place in the school and wi 1
'-ring her usual zeal and enthusiasm
as will as her ability as a teacher.
.Miss Ethel Brannon who has been
with the school for the past three
years will fill her position again. The
f;vct that Mi.-s Brannon was unani
mously re-elected after three years of
service is proof positive that she is
well qualified to fill the position lo
which she has been electe^.
j Mrs. Garnetfe Greene will be the
[ matron and will have, chiarge this year
i (.1 the domestic science department.
Mrs. Greene lias' demonstrated her
ability to handle the work committed
to her care.
1
One other teacher is yet to be sup
plied and when this teacher is secured
the school will present to tl*e people
of the county one of the strangest
forces that has ever been assembled
for educational work in this parr of
the state. "
The need for the type of education
that this school stands for grows
greater each day and just now the
call for men and women who can lead
in the practical affairs of life is far
greater than the supply. The young
nan or the young woman who can
clearly read the signs of the times
will avail themselves of the opportuni
ties offered by this school.

most for his child at the least outlay

TO DIVISION MANAGER.
The hosts ej rr j en< i s c f y lt . (N q
(Jack) Quinn will.be pleased to learn
that he has been promoted to the po.-i
--t'on of division manager of the Amer
ican Tobacco Company. Associated
with thjs, also, is the pleasant infor
mation that Mr. Quinn's headquarters
will be at Cartersville. The continued
p t,motion of .Mr. Quinn comes from
his intelligent work for his employer,
which has enabled him frequently to
win premiums in the contests held
among salesmen wherein Mr. Quinn’s
aggregate sales have almost uniformly
excelled those of all other salesmen.
Congratulations are due both the
American Tobacco Company, because
of their excellent judgment in selec
tion for this responsible position, and
to Mr. Quinn for his merited promo
tion. ♦
FIRST COTTON BOLL
- OF THE SEASON.
The first cotton boll of the season
was brought in to The Tribune office
Tuesday Jrom Bob H. McGimris’ farm
at Stilesboro. While this is not unus
ual for either Mr. McGinnis, or one of
his tenants, to bring from some one
of his places the first cotton boll cf
the season, It is a matter of interest
bfcause of Mr. McGinnis’ known ac
tivity In the growth of other products
this year. Active in urging the growth
ot velvet beans, ]>eas and kidney
beans, corn and other feed crops, Mr.
McGinnis has practiced what he lias
taught and is among the foremost pro
ducers of the county of a diversity of
agricultural products. He was likewise
Iratrumeata! during the early spring
months in the purchase of a large Jot
of peas which were distributed at cost
to farmers over the county. But he
continues to furnish the first boll of
TTwmrod'coftofl.
riermen ate made members of the
board of education, which would hiake
the board stand five members instead
of three as n-ow.
Seme slight changes have been
made with reference to the .manner of
holding elections, regular and Inter
mediate, so the times of holding the
elections and the registration of vot
ers would lie made more clearly un
derstood.
Practically all the safe guarding
clauses of the existing charter are re
tained. These retain in their essen
tial features the night of recall, the
right of referendum and the right of
initiative, all of which are rights pro
vides! for in the existing charter and
are preserved in the proposed new
charter.
As soon as a certified copy of the
charter reaches Cartersville it wf.ll he
published in The Tribune-New-?, and
from time to time until the election.
Those who are warmly advocating its
adoption state that the charter will be
thoroughly explained and argument in
its favor advanced, so that the citi
zens of Cartersville will be able to in
telligently express their will on elec
tion day.
Tite city authorities are at present
making plans to hold the registration
of voters preliminary to the election
on the question of whether or not Ho
charter will lie ratified by the voters.
OR. FELTON CORRECTS
- FALSE IMPRESSION
Editor Tribune:
A few weeks ago i wrote an article
in The Tribune-News on typhoid fever,
in my article I mentioned the fact
that milk, ice cream, etc., are carriers
of typhoid bacteria; which is true. I
think spme people misunderstood me
and though) the milk and cream in
( artersville were contaminated, which
idea i did not mean to convey at all.
State inspectors visit Carteraville
regularly and among their duties ii
that of giving careful insnectm--
fi oUa founts, ice cream and milk, and
I have no reason to fear that a rigid
inspection is not made. The reports
ihns far Made are that the fount ami
milk supply ami methods of making
ice cream are alright in Partersville.
Xo one need fear to eat ice cream or
drink milk at. any of the founts in Oar
ti rsville, and as a matter of fact, ice
(' earn is a very wholesome and health
ful diet and is recommended by the
1 nifed States health department.
There has been a number of cases
°f typhoid both here and throughout
i the county, and, in fact, to a greater
m less extent throfigh North Georgia.
We have not been able to locate its
origin here, and 1 only write for the
purpose of preventing my article here
tofore published from being misunder
stood in its reference to ice cream,
milk. etc.
Very truly yours,
HOWARD E. FELTON, M. D.
President County Board of Health.
