Editor Herald: Beading an article by Forrest CriBsey, in The Saturday Evouiug Post of April 16/1 promised my patriotic self to do wliat I could to wake up my friondB to the ueed for more interest, in school conditions, and knowl edge of educational problems on the part of parents especially—and on the > part of 'every] other person wlib has any inter est in' civilization and the good of, our country—but a multiplicity of duties kept crowding the purpose ahead to to morrow and tomorrow, until yesterday n. friend from n neighboring town told of conditions in a nearby school that startled me. It has been only a fow- months since we read of u teacher bemg cut to death by a. boy. God knows, the teacher 's job is hard enough, little onoiigh attractive, with the pdvontB ’ indifference, bad example and low pay, to discourage applicants. Wliat will bo the end if the teacher has to face subordination equal to that found among convicts in our prisons? The inciting to murder, inculcating lawlessness in the home, is not the, teach er’s problem; it is the community’s problem, the parents’ problom. My principles on the whipping ques tion, and on the teacher’s prerogative to whip if necessary, are— “No school or home can be managed without authority :.to enforce obedience. Discipline must be enforced. If it takes flogging to do it, let the flogging bo done. 1 ItvP': “If you need'a whipping that yotl do not get, so long as life shall last you will suffer for the need of that correc tion.’’ These are tho instructions I havo given all the children I have lovpd, and who have come to me with com plaints of their teachens. David said, “Thy rod and thy .Stall they comfort me. ’ ’ Solomon said, “The rod and reproof give wisdom; but a child, left to him. Belf briageth his mother to shame. ’ “Withhold not correction from tho child, for if thou beatest him with- the rod; lie shall not die,’’ “Thou shnit beat him with the rod, and. deliver his soul from hell. ” Children: properly taught at home be have, and are' law-abiding everywhere else. ''By the' children’s conduct ate tho characters of the parents judged. If the teacher is an improper person to have authority over' chid ran the jm- rents should know it' and seo that, the teacher is relieved of the job, and not instigate the children to murder rind' lawlessness. With your approval, Mr. Editor, „I wish in a later, article to say something about, the methods of toacliiug , 'in use in our section. Idly Reynolds. Moreland’, Ga. — o ‘— TWO CARROLL COUNTY MEN DIE FROM NOXIOUS GAS. Carrollton Free-Press, 18tb irist. Messrs. Lang Douglas and Bob Hors ley are dead from gas and injuries re ceived while working in a well at Bob Horsley’s homo, 4% miles from Carroll ton. Last Week they, dug a well for Mr. Horsley and had readied .a depth of about 00 feet on Thursday evening. Fri day morning Horsley went down into the well and at once discovered gas fumes and called for 1 help. A rope and bucket were lowered into the woll. Mr. Horsley either coold not, or did not, tie himself with the rope, but placed himself in or on the bucket and fens drawn up, but when he reached fresh air at the top he lost consciuosness and fell back into tlib well, a depth of 00 feet. It was then that Mr. Lang went down into the well and tied Mr. Hors ley, who was .drawn out. Mr. Douglas then felt-that he, tod, was being over come with gas, and called for help, but there were no other men thero, so they had to send for a neighbor, Mr. Milt Norton,, who lived possibly half a mile away. Mr. Norton quickly responded to the call, and when he reached tho scene, without saying a word to anyone, rushed down into the well, tied Mr. Douglas, and then called for him to bo drawn out. Douglas was dead, but Nor ton reached the top of the well in safety. Mr. Horsley was rushed to the Car rollton Hospital, but his injuries, in ternal and external, were so groat that he died Saturday night. Douglas was 38 years old and la sur vivod by his wife and three children. Horsley was 31 years old and is survived by his wife and two children, It— IONATIONS TO THE CHINESE famine FUND. dr. Paul G.

Cohan. ^ No really successful map in this coun try, or any other, ever got anywhere ex cept by clean-cut, honest, straightaway mothoils. , Friendship is the most essential tiling in the business world, or in 'any other walk of life. And you can’t make friends by browbeating and tearing down and destroying everybody and everything you come in contact yith. This isn’t a tough world. It’s abeam tiful world, a peach of A world, if you think right and live right, and find out what is the most important thing in life —and that is happiness. And the way to get it is to create it—and the only way to keep it is to spread it around. Now you take my tip and don ’t go about preaching that hardflsted doctrine you handed out to me, because you are only going to lead some young fellow astray.: Go out in the yard and dig that pit again and find your heart and put it back where-it belongs, because you art- only cheating yourself, old boy—cheat ing yourself out of the only thing worth while; and that’s being able to walk bang up to yopr mirror, look yourself straight in the eye and say, “Kid, yon’re all right.” That's what I do every night before I hop in bed, and, believe me, when I hit the pillow I sleep like a new born babe anfl wake up in the morning hungry for my breakfast. -o to make For Tprpid r 0RE THAN TRAFFIC CAN BEAR Itlnnta Journal. V’It. shouliTbe perfectly clear, oven 'Washington, D.

Throughout tile United States high costs of transportation havo uutowardly affected industry and com merce, and tho revenues ofe.tho carriers as Well. That tho latter must bo vouch safed an adequate return, a return suf ficient to take care of noodful repairs ai;d impi'ovenents and at the samo time to -pay fair dividends, goes without say ing; the rights Of tho railroads (not theii spseial privileges ndr their exploita tion by advontures in high finance) are no longer challenged by responsible men. But .they are now in tho singular pVo- dieamenti it'would seem,-'of having rates which 'are too high for tlieir own good! arid certainly too high for tho good of producers, shippers and eonsuinors. The riurnbor of idle freight ears is Baid to exceed any records of the leanest soasons gone by, and many railway companies arg reported to be ip sore straits, not withstanding repeated rata increases. Some solution there must be if 'busi ness iB to be encouraged and transpor tation interests thomsalvcfl placed on a stable basis. To tax traffic more than it can bear is to destroy it. It is greatly to be hoped that a ro- Iieying and constructive answer may bo found. “Where has all the monoy gone? Who Has the money? Where ean I get qome money?” Those are the questions ono hears many times a dqy. Nobody seoms to have the exact answer to these per plexing questions, but it is certain that a lot of money was burned up in gaso line, invested in worthless stocks, spent for luxuries and used up in having a “good time.” A few wise old lords salted down, theirs and still have it.— Jackson Progress.

Tho results of an Interesting test ship ment of kiln-driod qweot potatoes from Montezuma, Ga., to London, England,' wore made public Friday morning at the | headquarters of the Georgia Farm Bu reau Federation, in which it is shown that the potatoes not only arrived in London, but brought an averngo of 10 conts a pound, , Tho tost was imtfio by the market divis ion of the State College of Agriculture I in collaboration with tlio U. S. Bureau of Markets, The shipment was made on March 7, arid wore on sale iri London on. April 1. R, A. Kolley, president of the Farm Bureau Federation, in discussing the tost, sayH it shows conclusively that sweet po tato growers in Georgia could cure their potatoes by the drying method, ship them ■abroad and secure a good price. He said that tho export of swoet potatoes would I bo one of the, movemerits that the Farm Biiroau expocted to push this year.
