3 D ITEARST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, C.A., SUNDAY, .TTLY 27. 1913. In Savannah Social Circles is Superintendent of Education of Chatham County Declares Plan Is Entirely Impracticable. SAVANNAH. July 26.—Otis Ash- more. Superintendent of Schools in Chatham County, is opposed to the plan of having textbooks published by the State. Ashmore says that the talk of high price of school books is buncombe, and thinks that the re sults, if the State undertook to pub lish its own textbooks, would not only be unsatisfactory, but would show little if any difference in cost. “I have followed pretty closely the discussion about cheaper school books, and the publication of these books by the State,” said Ashmofe. ‘‘The publication of school books by the State is an old and threadbare story that is periodically dug up and thrashed over. The plan has been tried in several States and proves a failure. It is unwise, expensive and impracticable. ‘A recent investigation by the State Superintendent of Schools shows that he would save only a ‘cent or two’ on books printed by contract, even if we owned the copy right. To purchase a large and ex pensive printing plant to be operated by the State is a very doubtful ex pedient. The equipment necessary to print modern school books is quite extensive. “Hut the cost of printing is not the only consideration. The quality of the books themselves is of far more consequence than their cost. A good textbook is cheap at any price; a poor one is dear at any price. Those who know little about school books are inclined to regard them all alike. They think one read er or arithmetic is as good as another provided both have the same number 'of pages. I believe the greatest dan ger under the plan would lie in the limitation placed on securing good books. There are thousands of books, but only a few are good. The copy rights on the best books are ow’ned by the publishers, and they will not sell them.” Conductors Name Adjustment Board Any Differences With Central of Georgia Management To Be Amicably Settled. SAVANNAH, July 26.—To appoint a committee which will take up with the management of the Central of Georgia Railroad any matters which they believe need adjustment, a dele gation of officials of the Order of Railway Conductors of America held a meeting in this city.

Farmers Will Hold Picnic to Celebrate Success in Divorce From Cotton. SAVANNAH, July 26.—A decision by Judge Walter G. Charlton in the Superior Court clears title to land that had once been streets across the large Bartow Investment Company’s holdings on Bull street opposite Ards- ley Park, and by so doing enforced a contract of sale between W. M. Da vidson and the Bartow Investment Company for this property. The tract is a valuable one in the southern portion of the city. David son declined to purchase the land un der the contract, on the ground that title to lands over which cross streets had once passed was now doubtful, as the city ctill claimed title to the land for street purposes The investment company brought suit to enforce the contract. On the strength of this claim the city undertook to open up the former streets. The investment company ob jected on the ground that the city had long since lost title by abandoning the streets*. The company pleaded for an injunction to prevent the city cut ting the proposed streets, which the court granted. The case then went to the Supreme Court, a decision of which upholds the decision of Judge Charlton. In .the suit to enforce the contract of sale ten members of the investment company and 110 defendants besides Davidson were brought in. The ob ject in bringing them In was to force them to either assent to or object to the relinquishment of the title to the land in question for street purposes. Theee persons owned land in the subdivision of Kingsville other than the Bartow property. These persona as property owners in the vicinity might have had some claim upon these former streets for the purpose of getting to their own property. It was only by settling their claims one way or the other that the status of the title could be determined. Judge Charlton in hip decision de clared that the land in question Is the property of the Bartow Investment Company, and decreed that Davidson must now purchase the land under his contract. This Davidson Is glad enough to do. now that the title has been cleared. » Contrary to Expectations, Parcel Post Falls to Add to Savan nah’s Revenue. SAVANNAH.

CUTTER YAMACRAW BACK FROM FLORIDA CRUISE ers are being paid on an average of $90 a carload for their melons. In the territory between Brooklet and Blitchton 250 carloads have been sold at $90 a car. It is estimated that the farmers of Bulloch this year will receive $20,000 in the aggregate for their crops of melons, most of which have been shipped to the Middle West, the North and Canada. It has recently been demonstrated that the watermelon crop will prove far more profitable to Bulloch than cotton. When they have finished working the melons they are “laid by” with peas, which shade the melons as they ripen. After the melons are shipped crab grass comes in with the peas. This grass makes fine hay, froth which the farmers can realize enough to pay for their fertilizer. Thus they have an income from three crops. The picnic at Stilson will be the means of bringing together a very large percentage of the melon grow ers, and those who will be growers of the fruit next year. Those who have not yet attempted the crop as a staple will be given the benefit of the knowledge gained by the experience of those who have made it a success. 11-YEAR-0LD BOY LANDS 23-POUND DRUM FISH MARRIAGE INVITATIONS CORRECTLY AND PROMPTLY ENGRAVED SEND FOR SAMPLES AND PRICES J.
