i From the masses to the stag' may

’ but if Gladys Hanson, an Atlanta girl
who has won a high plate for herself
in the theatrical world, is to be be
lieved. it's the girl with education and
refinement who stands the better
chance of success.
Miss Him on. in real life Mis- Snook,

“Natural!'.' it i- easier for one win

"Other qualifications being equal, the
girl of social standing has the advan

should not begin al the top, no matter

stage bus been. Only the actual work
can furnisa the experience necessary
and th it can be gained more thorough

company, playing many unimportant
parts and gradual!., rising to a posi

Miss Hanson was reminded that she
ibegan at the top
"Yes. 1 began aim 's! at the top," she
admitted. "Bat that is no reason why
that is the best way . in fact, if 1 had

BROWNWARSON
SMITH SCHOOL
BOARD
Defies Senate Naming Suc
cessors to Dr. Pound and
J. C. Langston.
Governor Brown today ignored the
senate’s confirmation of the Hoko
Smith appointment* to the state board
of education. At a called meeting of
| the board held in the offide of the state
school superintendent, he issued com
missions to his own nominees.
In throwing down the gauntlet to
the senate the governor fired the first,
gun of what promises to be a long bat
tle to test the legality of the various
sets of .appointments. As has been
freely predicted, if Dr. Jere M. Pound
and J. <’• Langston, the ousted Smith
members, press their claims on the
strength of senate confirmation only a
supreme court decision can bring the
altercation to an end.
Dr. Pound Ousted
With J. C. Langston.
G. R. Glenn, president of the North
Georgia Agricultural college. was
I named by Governor Brou n to succeed
Dr. Jere M. Pound, of Athens, ami A.
U. Moon, of Baxley, was given a com
mission instead of J. C. I.angston. of
Sylvania. Walter Steed and T. .1.
Wooster. upon whom there xxere no.
contests, were recommissioned. Messrs.
Glehn, Moon. Steed and the governor
were presen* at the meeting. M. L.
Brittain, state school commissioner, a
member of the board by virtue of his
office, was out of the city and T. .1.
Wooster. who is in North Carolina, was
also absent. By virtue of the terms of
the educational act the governor is
chairman bf the educational board.
Brown Questions
Senate’s Power.
The light of the appointees to the
btxard of education began when the
senate failed to confirm Governor
Brown's appointments superseding
Pound and Langston with Glenn and
Moon. The governor then withdrew
his nomination. The senate called for
the minutes of the executive office re
cording the Smith appointments of
September 8, 191.1, and the governor
acquiesced to the request, but informed
the senate that the names appearing
on the minutes were sent In merely
for the senate's information and wero
not to be considered as nominees.
After several star chamber squab
bles the senate decided that it would
use the names on the minutes as nomi
nees. practically making the appoint
ments itself. The Smith list was con
firmed. Governor Brown’s theory is
that since the senate can not make ap
pointments, but may only approve, re
ject or refuse to consider the upper
house, has exceeded the authority vest
ed in it by the constitution and the
educational act.
