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. 772 JB9I Lon Tidwell. Taylorsville, R. F.

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.

Notwithstanding the rush of, busi ness toward the last of the session and the clash of the two houses over the appropriation's bill, Representa tives Johnson and Trip-pe succeeded in putting this measure through as recommended by a mass meeting 6f citizens of Cartersville held a few days p-evious. -- Full publicity will! be given the charter and citizens will be furnished an ofi>ortunity to judge of its merits, li does not, however, in effect greatly ehanige the existing charter except .with reference to the requirement tlmt the mayor and two aldermen shall serve without compensation, whereas now the mayor receives fif teen hundred dollars per annum and each of the two coimnlisedoners five hundred dollars per annum; and wi h i t ference to the office of city manager, wh:: shall receive a salary of twenty on* hundred dollars a year and may be a non-resident of the city of Car tersville.

(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. LEAVES FOR NEW YORK FOR J. W. VAUGHAN &. CO. Mr. A. J. Collins, representing J. W.
