M. M. Ham, 3rd.ward. To the Citizens of Gainesville: We find the statement being in dustriously circulated that we are in the race for Aldermen to antagonize the Public School interests of Gaines ville, and anonymous circulars are being distributed insinuating that our platform is: “No Schools. ” In order that the public may be broperly informed in regard to this matter we say positively and un equivocally that we do not oppose the Public School interests, but to the con trary the Public Schools shall have our earnest and hearty support, should we be elected. Phis school question has been settled and its injection into politics again is unwise. The people have voted $20,000 of their money for the erection of a School Building We could not change this if we would and would not if we could This question has already been set tled. We are fin favor of eretcing an up-to-date Public School building on the site of the old College building on Main street, the same not to cost more than $20,000 and to be complet ed by September i, 1903, ready for the Fall term. We only have this to say: We fa vor whatever is best for our City and if elected we shall use our best efforts for the good of the entire commun ity and the advancement and up building of every section of our city without fear or favor, T.

INDUSTRIAL Indian Boybood. “What boy would not be an In dian for awhile when he thinks of the freest life in the world?” asks the Iudian writer, Charles A East man, in his book, “Indian Boy hood.” Bat while Indian boys have the freedom of the woods they have a more severe training than white boys, to fit them for what their tribe believes to be the duties of manhood. Mr. Eastman thus recalls his own experience: It seems a popular idea that all the characteristic skill of the Indian is instinctive and heredi tary. This is a mistake. All the stoicism and patience of the In dian «re acquired traits, and con tinued practice aloue makes him master-of the art of woodcraft. Physical training and dieting were not neglected. I remember that I was not allowed to have warm beef soup or any warm drink. The soup was for the old men. General rules for the young were never to take their food very hot, nor to driok much water. My uncle, who educated me up to the time when I was fifteen years of age, was a strict disciplin arian and a good teacher. When I left the teepee in the morning he- would say, “Hakadah, look closely to everything you see,” and at evening, on my return, he used often to catechize me for an hour or so: “On which of the trees is the lighter-colored bark? On which side do they have the most regular branches?” It was his custom to let me name all the new birds that I had seen during the day. I would name them according to the color, or the shape of the bill, or their song, or the appearance and local ity ot the nest; in fact, anything about the bird that impressed me as characteristic. “Hakadah,” he would say to me, “you oguhfc to follow the ex ample of the shunktoeeha (the wolf). Even wh *1 he is surprised, and runs for his life, he will pause to take ODe more look at you he- fore he enters his final retreat. So you must take a second look at everything you see .” All the boys were expected to endure hardship without com plaint. In savage warfare a young man must, of course be an athlete and used to undergoing all sorts of privations. He must be able to go without food and water for two or three days without display ing any weakness, or to run for a day and a night without any rest. He must be able to traverse a pathless, wild country without losing his way either in the day or night. He cannot fall short in any of these things if he aspires to be a warrior. kalola Crystallized Mineral Water Notice is hereby given that an elec tion will he held at the City Hall in Gainesville, Hall County, Georgia, on the 9th day of December, 1902, for three Aldermen for said city to serve for a term of two years each, begin ning January 1st, 1903; one of said Al dermen to be elected from the First ward, one from the Second ward, and one from the Third ward of said city.
