BUCKS ASSURED
HMII
Negro Boys’ Institution To Be
Located on River in Adams
ville District.
As a resuit of Superior Judge Pendle
ton's severe criticism of children s court
conditions, the Fulton county commis
sion has decided definitely to estau •
a reformatory for negro boys. 3he in
stitution will be located on the < i.itta
hoochee river in the Adamsville distric
between the Baker Ferry and Garrett
Bridge-roads. .
Members of the alms ano , ut.
committee at a recent meeting voted
unanimously on the proj< •< t, «<u tor z
mg thepurehas. acres of and tn
Adamsville for $55 a acre or *-3.090.
Commissioner Shelby Smith, >h.t>
man of the committee, said today that
the commission would ratify the com
mittee's action and work on the con
struction of buildings for the reforma
tory would be begun at once.
To Care For 200 Boys.
“It IS "the commission s plan, said
Mr. Smith, “to construct frame build- |
Ings on the property so as t® have the
reformatory in shape to care or -
hoys by spring. The county will follow
the usual method of camp construction
and will be able to erect temporary
buildings from tlmbei now on the lam .
"Nearly 100 acres of the tract is the
finest bottom land in the county and
will be available at once for farming
purposes. The reformatory is certain
to be self-supporting and in time will
bring a revenue in to the county >y
supplying other institutions with pro
visions.” . , .
According to Mr. Smith the county
will pay one-fourth cash for the land
and the remainder In three yearly in
stallments. The tract includes land lots
Nos. 56. 57, 55. 84 and 85.
Result of Court’s Criticism.
The commission's action came, as a
direct result of Judge] Pendleton’s re
cent severe arraignment of court con
ditions. The Jurist, in discharging a
grand jury declared the children's court
as It now is administered, is "a mere
incentive to crime." He said that the
judges of the court had no place to send
negro boys, since the law prohibited
them from sending juveniles to jail ami,
for this reason, offenders took the chil
dren’s court as a joke.
In addition to providing a reforma
tory for negro boys the commission
authorized the renting of the Shelter
ing Arms building at Walton and Ma
rietta streets for $1,200 a year, to be
used as a detention home. The present
detention quarters at 169 Central ave
nue will be discontinued as soon as the
Sheltering Arms authorities can find a
new home. The Central avenue home
costs the county S4BO a year.

AT THE PLAYHOUSES

WARM WELCOME AGAIN
Despite the fact that "Excuse Me,"
played here last year, one of the biggest
audiences of the season gathered at the
Atlanta yesterday afternoon and evening
for the return engagement. Many In
these audiences had seen the play before,
and the consensus of opinion among
these was expressed by one merry spec
tator who was heard to remark as she
left the theater. "I enjoyed It more this
time than last—the fun is so fast and
furious, it helps to know what's com
ing."
“Excuse Me" is presented with the
same elaborate attention to detail, and
a well balanced company as before,
beieral of the roles are the same as last
l ear, ami others are as good, or better.
Th- negro porter, George May, Is exceed
ingly clever, and he is run a close sec
ond by the Englishman, Ira Lathrop, the
bride of Ira, and the minister’s wife.
Indeed, the entire company In splendid
and the show goes with a. rush of fun
which keeps the audience In the best of
humors throughout the extent of the. per
formance.
“Excuse Me" will be the attraction at
the Atlanta tonight.
