Promoted Pupils Need Not
Report Until Next Wed
nesday.
Superintendent Slaton, of the public
schools, announces that all promoted
puplla and transferred promoted pupils
will have their seats reserved for them
Monday and Tuesday.
Those who were promoted or trans
ferred and promoted need not go to
school until Wednesday If there Is suf
ficient excuse for staying away, but the
superintendent would like for all those
who possibly can to attend.
The result of reserving the seats for
the promoted and transferred pro
moted pupils will be that the total en
rollment for the year will not be known
until Wednesday, and It Js then that
the assignments of seats will be finally
adjusted.
The pupils will be seated according
to the rule which places the promoted
first, the transferred promoted second,
and the new pupils according to the
dates and numbers of their tickets.
FrflTay 250 new and transferred pu
pils secured entrance tickets in the
superintendent’s office and at 3 o’clock
Saturday afternoon about the same
number had secured these certificates.
The number of these tickets issued
had about reached the 4,000 mark at
noon Saturday.
Will be 15,000 Pupil#.
While It Is practically Impossible to
make any definite forecast as to the
probable opening attendance—that Is,
Wednesday and not Monday—the prob
abilities are that It will reach the 15,000
mark. This seems to be the opinion of
the school authorities.
All the schools, Including the Girls*
High School and the Hoys’ High School,
will be opened prompty at 8:30 o’clock
Monday morning and the seating of
pupils will begin immediately.
The Roys' Night School, which meets
at the Boys’ High School, will open at
7 o’clock Monday night.
The enrollment at this school won 318
lost year and It would not be surpris
ing If It were not still greater this year.
Miss Rebecca Vaughan will continue In
the capacity of principal and will be
assisted by the following teachers:
Miss Beatrice Hartford, Miss Annlo
Applewhite. Miss Carrie Scott and Mrs.
Ephle Williams.
There are five grades to the school.
Last year there was a separate class
for foreigners with a special course of
English, and eighty students were in
the class. The school, like the others,
Is run by the city, and is entirely free.
Students are taken regardless of age.
AH applicants must bring vaccina
tion certificates along and Miss
Vaughan, the principal, will place them
In their respective grades Monday
night.
The night school for girls and boys
at 70-74 South Boulevard will open at 7
o’clock on the evening of September 17.
Miss Dollle Crlm will contlnuo as prin
cipal.
The city furnishes the teachers for
this school and the Woman’s Board of
City Missions operates It. The build
ing was donated bjr the Fulton Bag and
Cotton Mills.
At the High Schools.
The prospects are exceedingly bright
at both the high schools.
Professor W. F. Dykes, w f ho succeed
ed Professor Slaton as principal,
very much pleased over the outlook at
the Boys’ High School. Saturday
morning there was a faculty meeting
at which the examination papers were
discussed.
The curriculum will remain practl
cally the same. Professor J. M. Trap-
nell, a graduate of the department of
engineering at the Georgia School o
Technology, is the addition to the fac
ulty, having been choaen associate pro
fessor of tho technological department.
Miss Nettle Sergeant, the principal
of the Girls’ High School, states that
she expects an opening attendance of
60rt. There are only 797 eligible for at
tendance nt the opening.
Languages Optional.
Only one change has been made In
the curriculum of the school. The board
has decided to leave the question of
whether the pupil will study Latin or
French In the second year optional,
The parent of the second-year pupil
must state in writing which is desired

AT CENTRAL BAPTIST
DEFY IDLE SAM
He Has Not Intimated De
fiance of the Federal
Courts.
Governor Smith Is rather indignant
over stories sent out from Atlanta to
Eastern and Western papers to the ef
fect that he w r ould defy the Federal
courts and enforce the new passenger
rates at any cost.
Predicated on these stories, editorials
condemnatory of Governor Smith have
appeared in some of the leading papers
of the country. Recently a very se
vere stricture of Governor Smith ap
peared editorially in The New' York
Times.
In the first place. Governor Smith
states that he has never, by direct
statement or through any language that
could be so construed, intimated any
defiance on his part of the Federal or
any other courts. He is a firm re
specter of the law, whether Federal
or state, and has and will continue to
abide by Its mandates.
Governor Smith expects to fight
openly and above board in the courts
to sustain the railroad commission In
Its order reducing the passenger rates
in this state. If the state should lose
there will be no defiance of the law.
Governor Smith and the commission
are making preparations to fight the
case before Judge Newman on Sep
tember 16. The governor Is not sen&l
tlve to just criticism of his public acts,
or criticism based on actual facts, but
he does object very naturally to the
kind of criticism arising from mis
statements of facts or of his actions os
governor of the state.

New Schools Unfinished.
It had been hoped that one of the
two new schools In course of erection,
either the North Avenue School or the
W. F. Slaton School, would be ready
for occupancy by tho beginning of the
term, hut this was found Impossible.
It Is stated, however, that the W. F.
Slaton School will probably be com
pleted by January 1 and will be ready
for occupancy In the spring term. The
North Avenue School will hardly be
completed before April.
Provision has been made, however,
for the seating of many of the pupils
who would have attended these schools.
The four grades of the North Ave
nue School will be taken care of In a
dwelling at 513 North Boulevard, which
has been leased by the board of educa
tion.
The first and second grades of the
W. F. Slaton School will be taught in

President Charles S. Barrett, of the
National Farmera* Union, arrived In
Atlanta Saturday morning from Little
Rock, where he attended the annual
meeting, and ^rhere he was honored
with unanimous re-election to the head
of the organization.
.President Barrett was quite 111 In
Conway, Ark. When he reached that
point Just a month ago on a tour West,
he became ill and had to go under a
physician’s care. Ills trouble developed
Into a combination of typhoid and ma
laria, and for about two weeks he was
a very sick man.
He was moved to Little Rock, where
hospital services could bo had, and
there he soon became much better,
recovering In time to attend every ses
sion of the annual meeting, and pre
side over Its deliberations. President
Barrett is not strong yet, and will
go to hls home at Atwater to rest and
recuperate.
“The convention Just closed in Little
Rock was one of the best and most
Important In the history of the union,’
he said Saturday. “It was as earnest,
capable and enthusiastic a body of
men as I ever saw gathered together.
Each state sent representative farmers
as delegates, and there was no loss
of time In getting down to business.
“The union is squarely back of the
16-cent cotton proposition, and you may
rest assured that we are going to stick
to those figures. I believe union men
everywhere will refuse to sell their cot
ton for a penny less than the price
fixed, and you know a considerable
number of farmers belong to the union.
“The organization Is growing and
spreading marvelously everywhere, and
the day is not far distant when the
Farmers’ Union will have a good work
ing organization In every state In the
Union. Reports from every state rep
resented Indicated w’onderful Increases
In membership.
“They w r ere good enough to re-elect
me president of the organization, and I
will continue to devote my entire time
to It.”
President Barrett will leave Saturday
afternoon for hls home In Upson coun
ty.
