Moreover.

"That I thus elected to be photo graphed as an unknown rather than a known person,” Miss Corelli explains further, "waa In order that no extra pains should bo taken In my behalf, but that I should be treated Just us an ordinary stranger would be treated, with no lass, but at the some time cer tainly no more care.” "For the benefit of those who may feel any further curiosity on the sub ject,” Miss Corelli writes that no por traits In any way resembling her have been published, anywhere, with the ex ception of a picture taken In her own house by an amateur photographer. This remarkable "note” ends tnus: "My objection to this sort of ’pict ure popularity' has already been pub licly stated, and I here repeat and em phasise It. And I venture to ask my reader* who hove so generously en couraged me by their warm nnd con- scant appreciation of iny literary ef forts, to try ami understand the spirit In which the objection Is made.

CAL VINADVOCA TESBILL FORA GRICUL TURAL SCHOOLS A few days ago the* house passed, by a large majority, the bill of Mr. Perry, of Hall, which contemplates the erection In each congressional district of a school of agriculture. A Georgian reporter asked Mr. Cal. vin, of Richmond, as to the scofie and the probable results of such a system of schools. Mr. Calvin, who had given the measure enthusiastic support, re plied. "As staled by Colonel Perry In his strong and eloquent speech. Governor Terrell had early pressed upon the at tention of the general assembly the necessity for such a cordon of schools, but It was so new and so broad a suggestion that neither the legislature nor th* people were prepared for It. Colonel Perry took hold of the Idea at the psychological moment. He had hls own clean-cut conceptions of the subject, and spiritedly addressed himself to the development of the same. At the 8upremo Moment. "I am a great believer In the Scrip tural 'fulness of' time,’ The Conner agricultural college bill was brought forward at the aupreme moment. "The history of the bill In the house Interests one deeply. I do not recall a measure, except the Gordon statue bill, which had so little promise, so little hope of success, on the day It was called up. A whisper went round the house that the bill had ngt the re motest chance of even a complimentary vote. Indeed, the committee on agri culture reported It favorably more out of regard for Colonel Perry’s Intense earnestness than for any other reason. It was gravely suggested that the bill might stand In the way of the ‘greater’ agricultural college to which the whole people are looking with so great ex pectancy. “The fact Is we have gone back to first principles—educating from the top down. However much the plan may be animadverted against. It I* capable of most satslfactory results, as shown by the post in this state. An Early Impetus. "In 1821 the general assembly ap propriated half a million dollars for the establishment of an academy of high grade In each county In the state. The academies capped the sys tem of classical schoola which flour ished In the country sparse and In the city full. They were a connecting link between those school* and the colleges of the state. They afforded boys and girls, rapidly approaching their ma- , ority. opportunity to obtain a train ing which stood them In hand for self culture, If It so chanced they had nut the means to go to some college or university. "The thought In those days was that i to the great body of the prop!,- 'he state would aid the children of those only who could not themselves edu cate them. The state provided In a measure for the few through the agen cy of the academies. The classical schools, referred to, were, of course, private schools, but thousands of wor thy and ambitious boys and girls whose parents could not contribute a penny to those schools, were permit ted to drink at the fountain and later by their career, honored the courtesy extended them. Educated the Masses. "That system of education did this for Georgia. Through the few who were carefully trained and fully equipped she educated the masses; that .1*. thoroughly Informed them on all public questions—the genius of u re publican form of government, the rights of the states In the territories, the right* which the states yielded to the general government and the great and Indestructible right of local self- government which the states reserved to themselves. "Tljat system of schools turned out young men, who. If they were ambi tious of becoming soldiers, were sel dom, if ever, rejected at West Point, except for physical disability. That fact alone tells of the thoroughness of the work done Indhose schools. "The Perry bill proposes an agri cultural school In,each congressional district, and appropriates the fees from the Inspection of fertilizers, oil, etc, except such amounts now other wise appropriated. "The concession of the fertiliser fees was most striking evidence of th* gradual and masterful hold which the bill took upon the house aa the debate progressed. It Is rarely that speeches control In the disposition of a blit In cases where the house manifests, at the outset, a persuasion unfavorable to the measure. Debate did shape and make the destiny of the Perry bill. How ths Law Will Operate. "The agricultural schools will b* called Into existence one after another. The most active congresalonal district will take ths lead. It may be a year or two years before another district will attempt the work. But, one by one. Inspired by the success of other*, each district will organise a school of agriculture. "These schools will be the cap-stons of the common schools of the several districts. They will constitute nn In spiration and nn Invitation to the more ambitious boys and girls to come up higher. They will lead to the atate college of agriculture hundreds alio would never cherish the hope of reach ing that Institution. They will lead not a few to the other colleges of the state. They will equip thousands for the battle of life. . ; Will Rais* the Brows of Children. "I said of the Connor bill not long ago that It would raise the brow of every Georgia farmer an Inch. I sa.v of the Perry bill that It will raise the brow of every Georgia boy and girl In the country wide an Inch—giving them new hope and blessing them with an Inspiration that will be uplifting and triumphant. .... "J slncereiy trust that the Perry bill will so favorably Impress the senate that that body will pasa It by a unan imous vote. "This done, with what the legisla ture has already done at this session In furtherance of agricultural education, Georgia will stand before bsr sister states of the South an exemplar of high rank—truly a great state."
