DEPARTMENT OF
PUBLIC SCHOOLS
EDITED BY
HENRY MILAM, Superintendent of Schools.
County Commencement Day.
The Bartow County Teachers are
tt i ng busy now preparing for the
t ,nutty Commencement to be held on
j i as t day of school, April 17th.
The program of all the school child
v, a of the county: Story telling hour
f . t be first and second grades; con!
, sts for the other grades in spelling,
arithmetic and composition; special
features for the Corn Club Boys and
~,e canning Club Girls; field day ex
ercises, awarding of certificates to
tbe seventh grade pupils. This last is
the one big event of the day.
These boys and girls deserve this
recognition. Too long have they been
allowed to pass out of the school with
out any showing that they have per
formed well the task assigned them
j, is never too late to mend your ways
l.'kl, with due apologies to the boys and
girls who have been treated thus, we
intend from now on to see that they
receive that recogcnition they so rich
iy deserve.
We have the promise of the state
superintendent of schools to be pres
int and assist in the exercises.
Another feature of the day will be
Cue awarding of any “'Standard
School Certificate" that may bo won
during the year. Several schools are
working to this end. At the same time
I grade of each school in the county
nill be announced. This feature is
spurring teachers, pupils and patrons
to make many much needed improve
ments.
As was announced at the beginning
of the school year each school is re
quired to send in to the board of edu
coition two specimens of the work done
by each grade. An exhibit of this kind
from each school will be on display at
this time.
In all this should be red letter day
for the Bartow county schools.
A Good Sweeping Compound.
Two sacks of sawdust (about four
bushels).
Half gallon of Linseed oil.
Six ounces Carbolic acid.
Half gallon kerosene oil.
Mix oils together. Pour sawdust on
foor. Pour oil mixture over this and
with a shovel mix well until sawdust
is thoroughly saturated. It may not
require quite this amount of oil. Get
is fresh, dry sawdust as possible.
To Bartow County Teachers:
I am advised by the Hon. Gordon
lee that he has recently mailed a
letter to all corn club boys whose
names were on the rolls of 1912 and
li-13, urging them to re-enter the clubs
lor 1914, and that he has also sent a
letter to all the teachers requesting
their active and sympathetic interest
m the work of enlisting a large num
' er of boys and encouraging them in
their work. Mr. Lee, in common with
a" other intelligent and observant
1 ftople, has a high opinion cf the value
of these competitive contests among
1 ova and girL. They not only arouse
a spirit of generous rivalry in well do
ing between the members of these
clubs, but they stir up an interest in
better agricultural methods all over
the- communities in which they live
cud do their work.
The laws of Georgia require you
to teach agriculture in your schools
and it is unquestionably true that ag
i'iculture, like other things, can best
>e taught by practicing it while study
■ig it. The teachers of our public
schools, more than any other class
of citizens, have it in their power to
u ake this club work among the boys
'tid girls in their counties an instant
md gratifying success. And its suc
cess will quickly react upon the
schools and bring better conditions
in them and better pay to their 'each
ma So self-interest, no less than pub
spirit, will impel all earnest and

Wm. BRADFORD,
Corn Club Agent.
Cedartown, Ga., Feb. 17, 1914.
Pine Log School News.
A few weeks ago the pupils of the
Bigh Sdhool department organized
two rival Glee Clubs. Each club has
the usual set officers and a program
committee. The clubs have rendered
two or three pretty good programs.
-* 1 the last one of which, a number of
visitors were entertained.
The grammar school department
has also organized itself into a school
improvement club and is rendering
some good Friday afternoon programs.
The pupils from the several depart
ments of the school have oiled their
respective rooms recently. They rea
jli ’.e something cf the value of keeping
| the dust down all through the day,
arid especially while they sweep.
Several of the instructors of the
\ Farmers’ Extension school, held here
jhst week, made talks to the pupils
: ot the high school department. In ad-
I rlit ton to these talks, Mr. Campbell
| addressed the boys in the interest of
industrial education and the corn
le üb, and .Miss Dowdle spoke to the
j girls in the interest of the girls’ can
jr.ing club. All these talks were ver
j instructive and entertaining.
Resolutions passed by the Farmers’
Institute at Pine Log:
We, the Farmers’ Institute assem
bled at Pine Log, desire to express
cur appreciation to Profs. Rast, Car
ter, Jarnagin, Jones and to Dr. Bur
s.n, Mr. Campbell and Miss Dowdle
P r coming to us and for their instruc
ts e lectures.
We further heartily endorse the
State College of Agriculture is doing
t* r the farmers of Georgia through the
extension department and we sincere
ly hope and do earnestly urge that the
state legislature give this work suf
f cieut financial support to enable
the college to enlarge the extension
and demonstration work.
We further desire’ to express our
unqualified support to Dr. Soule and
Lis able faculty in the splendid work
they are doing through the Agricul
tural College. We wish to commend
<t* the farmers the systematic using
of the information gained and distri
buted by the college.
We especially ask that when the
Itinerv is made up for next year that
Bartow county and Pine Log receive
favorable consideration at their hands.
Value of Disciplined Character.
“That character which guides con
j duct to true success is a disciplined
I character. It is not fitful, or wayward
j M blown about by every wind of doc
! Line, or moved by every change o’
! circumstance. Discipline involves
| standards. The application of sand
ards implies rules. A disciplined char
of.ter, therefore, is a character which
has fixed standards leading to definit
rules cf conduct. I'nless life and stud •
• n a university have taught this le
son, the university has failed in it
, 1 gh purpose. The pressure for train
I ing to enable one to earn a living i ■
; :J1 well enough in i's way, but thos
v ho have learned how to live will b
j of no benefit to civilization, and o
Mile value to themselves, simply be
cause they have learned how to mak
! a li ing.”-—Nicholas Murry Butl°r.
THE BARTOW TRIBUNE, FEBRUARY 26, 1314.
NO ACTION TAKEN ON
ATLANTA LOCKER CLUBS.
/Ganta, Ga., February 23 —The
twenty bills of indictment prepared
by the solicitor's office at the request
of the Evangelical Ministers’ Asso
ciation of Atlanta, against the leading
Iccaer clubs of <he city have been
pigeon-holed following the final ad
ijiwiunent of the present grand iury
without taking action on the locker
cl.it s at all.
’ he grand jury, it is understied
took the same view as that expres ed
f m another angle by Mayor Janie -
G. Woodward and the police hoard of
council, that the locker clubs were
li ensed to operate only in conformity
wuh the law, and that if they were
in any instances violating the la.v it
was a question for the police and not
for council or the grand jury.
However, the incident is not entire
lv closed, as anew grand jury is to bo
sworn this month, and it is predicted
that Judge Ben Hill may charge the
g.’und jury to look Into the locker < lub
situation, as a question of public in
ti rest, and to return not indictments
against the clubs, but a present men L
on the subject outlining the resu.ts of
tlieir investigation.
Officers of the Capitol City Club,
'he Driving Club, and the big club?
-ay that they would welcome such an
investigation and would give the grand
jury every assistance in their p .wer.
7110:/ declare that the big clubs are
anxious and willing to operate in ex
ae: conformity with the proper inter
frelation of the law. However, of
course, there remains the big question
unsettled in many minds, as to wheth
er or not the locker club itself no mat
ter how run, Is a violation of the
state’s laws.
THE IMPRISONMENT OF
JULIAN HAWTHORNE.
Atlanta, Ga„ February 25. —Editor
Jonathan B. Frost in the current issue
of “The Call of the South,” takes the
view that whether or not the probe
at the federal penitentiary here is
closed, the disclosures of Julian Haw
thorne will have an important and far
reaching effect upon the prison svs
tern of the country at large.
‘ There never has been much pro
gress of the human family,” says Mr
I‘"rst, “except it ha? been a complish
e l through crucifixion, martyr lorn,
ami sacrifice, persecution, are other
u rms for the same quality of fact.
‘To God. it is not of overweening
concern that Steven was stcne.l to
death, except that it gave Steven the
occasion to show his attainment cf the
divine injunction to pray that his mur
derers might be forgiven. It is not of
divine concern whether Julian ' aw
thmne was justly or unjustly imoris
ored. But what is of concern and un
der the direction of providence is the
.mprovement of conditions ann the
heart of man generally. This comes
through individual suffering. The im
prisonment of Julian was
therefore probably the most for unate
imprisonment ever made by the
Ifni ted States government. From this
Impiisonment shall unquestio ably
date a movement for reform of prison
construction, prison methods, manners
cf prison guards, and prison economy ”
