COUNTY SCHOOLS.
County Board Education Meets
Next Wednesday.
The public schools of the county will
open on November 28tli, for the
winter term of four months. All the
teachers are getting ready to begin
their work, and indications fire that the
attendance will be very good. Work
j on the farms in the country is almost
i at and end for this year, and does not
| begin in earnest until near the close of
i winter term, therefore, the attendance
will no doubt be larger than last term.
The county board of education will
hold an important meeting next Wed
nesday. The question of how the
teachers should be paid will be settled
at this meeting. For the past year
they have receiyed so much per scholar,
the number in attendance regulating
their pay. It is proposed now, by
some members of the board, to fix a
stated salary for each teacher in the
county, the grade, experience and abil
ity of the teacher and importance of
the school, regulating the salary each
is to receive.
It is argued by many that this is the
best method of paying the teachers,
and it is probable that the Board will
adopt it. At any rate, the question
will be positively determined next
Wednesday to take effect at once.
Turnipseed-Adams.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Turnipseed, of
Hampton, announce the engagement of
their daughter, Allie Pearl, to Mr. J.O.
Adams, of Gainesville, the marriage to
occur Wednesday morning, November
16th, at 9.30 o’clock. The announce
ment of the coming marriage is of
special interest as both young people
are well known and have many friends
in the state, The bride-elect is a young
lady of many rare accomplishments and
is a member of one of middle Georgia’s
most prominent families. Mr. Adams
is a graduate ef the law department of
the University of Georgia and is asso
ciated in the practice of his profession
with the well known law firm of Dean
& Ilobbs, of this city. The young
couple will make their future home in
Gainesville.
A Small Blaze.
A fire started in the basement of the
store of Mr. Oscar Moore last Tuesday
afternoon, but it was put out before
any damage was done. An employee
went to the cellar to draw some gas
oline, and struck a match which, after
thinking it was extinguished, he drop
ped into some rubbish. In an instant
a blaze flew up but the fire companies
turned out promptly and extinguished
it before any damage was done.
A Complete Dam.
The new dam at the waterworks
station, which has been under con
struction for several months, is about
completed at last. The work was fin
ished once before but the heavy rains
in October sprung a leak in the dam,
and more dirt and rock were thrown
upon it making it sufliciently strong to
withstand the heaviest rains. Alder
man Norris, who has had the woik in
charge, has toiled dilligently to erect a
dam that would prove satisfactory in
every way. With this additional water
at the pumping station there will al
ways be an abundant supply for rhe
city’s use hereafter, even in the dryest
spells or in case of big tires.
