SIMPLE DRAWING
COURSE FAVORED
Newspaper Artists Tell School
Board Pupils Had Best Be
gin at the Bottom.
Whether the artistic temperament of
Atlanta's school children should be de
veloped along lines which will enable
the students to draw a faithful likeness
of an Irish potato or whether the course
of study should be devoted to the de
velopment of embryonic Rembrandts is
a question now being pondered by the
art committee of the Atlanta school
board.
' The committee has not been satis
fied with the progress along artistic
lines made by the drawing classes. It
was decided to change the course of in
struction this year. Accordingly pro
posals were asked in drawing courses.
A flock of, school book publishers sub
mitted their series of drawing books
and methods.
James L. Key. E. V. Carter and Dan
Green, the members of the committee,
were in a quandary. They called in ex
pert advice and asked for a report on
the various publications by members
of the art departments of three Atlanta
newspapers.
The newspaper artists unanimously
agreed on the simplest of the series of
drawing books. “A child will have to
learn to draw a potato before he can
draw a Rembrandt,’’ was their report in
submitting their recommendations.
Members of the committee did not
adopt their suggestion at once. They
paused to consider. More complicated,
but perhaps more interesting, series
had appealed to them.
At a meeting to be called this week
it will be finally decided whether the
children will grow up to have the op
portunity of becoming old masters
through their first training or will have
to approach the position by easy stages.
PARENTS SEE CHILD
CRUSHED TO DEATH
UNDER STREET CAR
MACON, GA., Aug. 20.—While her
parents were eating ice cream in a
soda fountain, little Pearl Welch, a
th!ee-year-o'.d tot, wandered out and
strolled on the car tracks directly in
the way of a rapidly approaching
Mineville car, at Washington avenue
and Orange street. More than 50 per
sons, including the child’.- parents, saw
the little gill knocked down and run
over. The child died soon afterwards
at the hospital, where the father him
self took the broken and bleeding bodv
in his arms. Mr. Welch is a farmef
living near Macon.

Patrol Wagon Chases Pachyderm
ELEPHANT ON RAMPAGE
CHICAGO, Aug. 20. Nero, an East
I African elephant, owned by a Wild
West show company, ran amuck today
and for two hours had his own way in
the usually quiet streets of Englewood,
a suburb. He finally fled when a clang
ing patrol wagon chased him, ran into
a blind alley, was cowed by three of
his keepers and was led back peacefully
through the streets to his tent. But ir
the meantime he had made things live
ly.
Nero’s escapades began about 3 a. in.
His keepers say he was angry because
they didn’t get up and take him a drink
of water when he trumpetd for it. A
few minutes later they heard him snap
his* chains and thump out into the
night.
First, Nero spied a shed in which
the city stored oil and street lamps.
Others have agreed with Nero that it
was unsightly. The elephant believed
in "direct action." There are now a
AUTO ONCE OWNED BY
JACK JOHNSON HIT BY
CAR; 3 BADLY INJURED
CHICAGO, Aug. 20.—Three persons
were injured, one a woman, probably
fatally, when an automobile, once the
property of Jack Jonnson. the colored
champion, but now belonging to Mrs.
Mary Moriarity, of Cedar Lake, Ind.,
crashed into a street car today. The
driver was sending the car at a terrific
pace up Michigan avenue, the police
say. He tried to cross Thirty-firs*
street ahead of a car. The car struck
the machine squarely in the center.
Nellie Bradley, the woman in the car,
probably will die. James Kelly and
lohn Connors were severely injured.
•James Culver, driving the car, was un
injured. He was arrested.

The men are among those indicted

CARE OF THE TEETH
IMPORTANT TO HEALTH
Without perfect teeth one can not
enjoy perfect health. Decayed or im
perfect teeth are not only painful and
continuously annoying, but a positive
menace to health and even life.
Do not neglect your teeth. Upon the.
first sign of decay have them treated
and save suffering. Or. if the teeth are
already in bad condition, have them at
tended to at once.
The modern scientific painless meth
ods In use by the Atlanta Dental Par
lors rob dentistry of its former terrors
and the most difficult operations are
performed quickly and without pain.

To the People of Fulton County:
Tomorrow you will determine who will be your representatives in the leg
islature for the next two years.
I am asking of you your support and confidence.
In my business affairs I have always been careful about making promises.
Too many promises are hard to keep. If elected to the legislature, I do not
promise to do any great things. However, I will say this —I will be controlled
by only one yard stick, and that is the rule of right.
No ill-feeling has grown up in this campaign. It has been clean in every
way and on every hand. All the gentlemen running are worthy and for all of
them I have the kindest f eelings.
