GIVE SOME ENCOOAGEMENT.
Encouragement is something we
naturally look for. A little praise, a
word of hope or a cheerful smile some
thing for the hungry soul to grasp und
the weary mind to rent upon, as we
climb tho toilsome mountain of life.
How many poor hearts hare sunken in
to despondency, wlion a little encourage
ment has reassured them. The soldier
looks for it on the field of battle; it is
the cheering voice of his leader that
urges him through the dangoi of death
and crowns the day with victory. The
p >et and th > artiit, tl . iti • I the
musician look to the work to acknow
ledge their genius and give them praise.

Somebody has been unkind enough to say that if the improvements keep tp
the prison, whether it be jail or penitentiary, will he so inviting as to tempt
really good people to do something to seek a home there. But the age of christ-
nity is fast approaching and it is well for the itate to care for its people in the
b ist possible manner, so here's al) honor to the prison commission and its work.
Can You Read and Write and Figure?
An educational crusade is on in Georgia. The compulsory education bill
promises to become a certainty in the way of law soon and then it will he neces
sary for the children of Georgia to go to school. The fig ires on illiteracy in this
stale are somewhat dazzling and often beyond comprehension. The bill new
pending before the legislature provides that all the children of the state between
the ages of 8 and lfi must go to school. It means that there will be no illiteracy,
that everybody will soon know how to read and write and figure.
There is another trouble, however, confronting the state. How can all this
be paid? If we laid claims to statemanship, or studied carefully affairs of state
and how to do them, perhaps we might answer the question, but just now it
seems that Georgia is needing the money to pay the teachers for the little work
they have done. Georgia lawmakers are stingy when it comes to appropriating
money for education. Here in Milledgeville one hundred thousand dollars would
come in mightv handy for the G. N. & 1. College and we can’t get half the sum.
Yes, it is a splendid idea to enforce education. We are anxious to have it
passed, but we also want the teachers paid and we want better teachers and we
are fur compulsory education, consequently give us more money and while you’re
giving, Mr. Legislator, please pass $35,000 down here to build the new Agricul
ture and Science Hall for the G. N. & I. College and then give the trustees all
the money they need to operate the college. It will be money well spent, for
little us some may think of it, these girls are the hope of the state and
country.
