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 PLAN A UTUMN RALL Y 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.

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.
