SCHOOL'S OUT! TG
“TAKE IN" JUN. I
Vacation Is One of Longest on
Record. Owing to Highly
Popular Calendar.
Atlanta school children kept one eye
on the clock and the other on Christ
mas shopping lists all through today’s
session, and there wasn't an eye hit
for*lessons Nobody could have expect
ed a boy or girl tn think about the
boundaries of North Dakota or the
number of times one cun inse rt 12 l-~
Into 97 without any left-overs win n
Christmas day is only a few days
aliead. This was the last day of school
for two weeks.
The report was circulated at the Da
vis Street school that in future tie r
wouldn't be any last day. Johnny Duf i
fy brought in a rumor that Superiu-I
tendent Slaton, having observed how
little work was done on the last day. 1
had decided to make that also a holiday I
in future. No official verification of the i
rumor has been given out.
School will not "take in" again until i
January 2, the day after New Year, and |
the vacation tlds season is one of the |
longest on record. It happened that '
way because the calendar happened !
that way. Christmas comes next Wed- |
nesday, as everybody more than a year j
old knows. And even the board of cd- I
ucation knew there wouldn't be the !
slightest use in having school on Mon- •
day and Tuesday, with th. teacheis all
having their minds on presents for the I
sweethearts .nd from them and neg
lecting tiie pupils who would he .study- I
ng so hard and so anxious to recite. ‘
So the hoi.rd and Mr. Slaton decided to I
scratch off all th, days b< two. n today I
and the day after New Year's and let i
everybody have a good time.

VALDC »STA. GA. Dec. 20.—Lowndes’
county’s new MO.OOO jail was formally
a- '-epted gnd the county prisoners moved
Into it today. The prison is a thoroughly 1

on the bars, he gave It up as a bad Job
The new jail is pronounced one of the ’
best lighted and best ventilated prisons 1
in the state. <
