Milledgeville's position in the educa.
tional world makes thiB subject one of
more than ordinary important. A
goodly number of the vnung ladies of
the Ftate, in addition to the children of
this city, and many young men from
different section* of the south, look to
the teachers hero for instruction.
Perhaps there are some who would not
class the students hero, especially the
out-of-town students, ns children, but
when the years of experience comoon
with time they will learn that as we
gr.iW older the realization comes that
we are only grown up children and.
after we pass the Hirer core years and
ten most of ue will let our minds travel
baekvard to the days when we were
young and unconsciously we b* come ih
action and in (bought mere children.
In discussing this important question
tl.o Pacific Monthly goes into details
and we commend the following excerpt
to our renders, patrons, students, ami
tcrclievs as Icii'g worthy of pprusnl.
Tiie teacher's work is the mott
Weal ing and taxing in the world. The
rcmunci at ion should cease to bo nig
gardl.v and inadequate. It it cannot be
m .do adequate tu service rendered it
ahouU at least b- fair and nhovo the
standard of tho so-called living wage.
Sir William Haiosy criticised our educa
tional system r few years ago because
of tl e small salaries paid to teachers
in schools and professors in colleges.
Every thing possible should be done to
make the office of teacher attractive to
our best men and finest women. It cun
never I e hoped to make the teacher's
post one of the world's prizo in money
and material reward, nor is it neces
sary. But teaching should not forever
be tho poorest paid of the so-called
professional callings. Teaching must
lie made worth while, and then we shall
get what Rusk'll called our money's
worth in ‘ the greatest possible number
of good nnd bravo men and women.”
Love and reverence for the child will
beget the synputhy and forbearance
which si' 1 tw ■ thirds of the victory. Tho
child mind and its laws, the child psy
chology must be known, but this know
ing or science is not enough. There
must hcpatici.ee nn 1 s,i puthy with
the child life, the lowest dos and dents.

“Bring ye vour tithes and offerings

Judge G. T. Whiiden, who was a
lieutenant in the Army of Northern
Virginia and one of the youngest
offic rs in the service of the Confederacy
writes The News as follows:
Editors The News:
I reply to'an article which appeared
in your issue of the first of this month
from the pen of Judge Sanford. I
wish to say that his statement is
correct. On the night of April '-',1865,
I was in command of the extreme out
posts of the videttes of Lee’s army and
to my great surprise about 3 o’clock in
the morning a courier rode up with
official order, stating that the army
was falling back and for me to vacate
and report to my command. I did ro
at once, but not until 1 had crossed the
James river did I reach m> command.
In passing through Richmond the
streets were literally packed with
pedestrians, vehicles and horses.
The noise caused by the destruction
of gunboats on the James river was
simply fearful, the blowing up of
powder magazines and valuble govern
ment property was heart rending and
sickening to a soldier on duty. My
squad of videttes was among the last
to cross the river, the oridgs had been
fired in several places. Phillip’s legion
was jnst in my rear and as Judge
Sanford staled, was to my mind the
last organized body of Confederates
troops to vacate Richmond and cioss
the James river. G. T. Whiiden.

AS A Good
Cotton Market Ranks High
The Eatonton News says:
"Cotton was received and sold in
Eatonton last Saturday from Baldwin
Greene, Jones, Morgan and Jasper
c mnties as well as Putman. The Eat-
, onton cotton market is one of the best
in the section. A Milledgeville ware-
1 housemen stated here Monday that he
could make frmi $1 69 to $2.00 per
bale on bis own cotton by bringing it
to Hutonton and he thought seriously
of bringing his individual cotton here.”
We don’t know who the Milledgeville
warehouseman was, but for over a
year we had the honor of being com
mercial and financial editor of Tho
Augusta Herald and we know Mil
ledgeville is a good cotton market,
ranking with the centeis and Monday
cotton sold here for 13 1-8 cents and
Thursday it sold as high as 13 3-16 cents
and this is most excellent.
HUMAN HEARTS NEXT FRIDAV
I "Human Hearts”, the ‘idyl’ of the
Arkansas Hills, will be produced at
Milledgeville Friday Oct. 16
Like Shore Acres, and the Old Home
stead, time only increases its hold upon
the hearts of the people. The prattle
of an innocent child, the tears of an old
blind mother, the strong love of a
simple country girl, the truth of a half
wit, the love of an old time negro, the
passion of an adventuress and the tend
er memory of a dead mother of the past
of the Governor of Arkansas, are all
cleverly intermingled by the deft hand
of the author of this absorbing tale of
the Arkansas Hills. Each succeeding
season of this thrilling play’s annually
increasing business, has induced the
management to engage for this season’s
production one of the strongest com
panies ever organized in one cast. To
the lovers of a g 1 od play, not one on
ihe list this season will appeal mor
strongly than "Human Hearts”.
