effect was wonderful. This fine sing
was due to the faithful and careful
training of the children by Miss Fan
nie Virginia McClure. Dr. Tigner,
county school superintendent, ex
pressed his appreciation of her fine
work, and asked the boys and girls
lo stand as a little silent tribute to
her goodness, for hers was a labor of
love, with no recompense whatever.
Miss Allie Myrick’s reading of “A
Little True American,” was a work
of art, and both children and grown
ups enjoyed it.
Prof. M. L. Duggan, one of the
state school supervisors, made the
address of the morning. He said that
-■a*osman. was right wlvo announced
that whatever reform you would in
troduce into your nation must first
he put into your public schools. To
him. the very sight of these school
children, presented an unanswerable
argument, more eloquent than any
man’s words, that the future of our
county depends upon the kind of ed
ucation we are givin" t« these chil
dren. He said he would like to speak
through these children to the par
ents, the school boards, and the vo
tern of the irresistible appeal they
made for the betterment o.f our
schools.
H( n then spoke of readjustment'
of schools and school work now he
ing made in Georgia, ar.d urged our
county to see to it tha ; v.-e no longci
blush on account of the meagre out
fit in many of our rural schools, hut
to help to our uttermost this “big-
business” of our state, our schools.
At the close of the exercises Mrs.
S. A. Cook, in beautiful words, deliv
ered the D. A. R. prizes in the his
torical essay contest.
Mr. Warren Edwards announced
ihe names of the twelve schools in
the county that had won the prizes
offered by the Junior Order of Unit
ed American Mechanics.
Mrs. Harper Tucker, vice president
of the Federated Clubs of the coun
tv. presented the Edison given by the
Fairy Godmothers.
Her words were spoken in her ov.-n
graceful manner.
After the benediction by Rev. Mr
T. ’pham the various schools adjourn
ed to the court house lawn and sprea 1
er business transacted.
At half-past twelve o’clock a lun
cheon was served the veterans by the
members of the R. E. Lee chapter.
The dinner was a splendid one and
was thoroughly enjoyed by those
who partook.
Tl'.e exercises of the day took place
in the city cemetery at three o’clock
mi the afternoon.
The line was formed in front of
the court house at half-past two
o’clock, under command of Capt. R.
G. Cousley. It was headed by the G.
M. C. band nud the Cadet Battalion,
who acted as an honorary escort to
the veterans. There were a largh
number of people assembled at the
cemetery, when Coi. Jos. E. Pottle,
master of ceremonies, arose to an
liounce the program.
Rev. C. M. Lipham in an eloquent
and impressive prayer, invoked di
vine blessings upon the occasion.
The musical program consisted of
a rendition by the band, and the sing-
of “Cover Them Over With Beau
tiful Flowers” and “Georgia Land,”
by a number of the mmbers of the
senior class <‘f the Georgia Normal
nd Industrial College, led by Miss
Tucker.

Prof. Alfriend’s address was thor
oughly enjoyed. It was a review of
he history the part the South had
uken in forming and building this
country, and was most interesting
-nd instructive. He held the closest
Mention of his hearers. The address
will be published in full next week.
The Union Recorder invites its most
careful reading.
Col. O. R. Horton has notified the
board of trustees of the Georgia Mil
itary College that he will not accept
the presidency of the college for tho
year 1920-21.
The Union Recorder learns that
Col. Horton has accepted an offer
from the Riverside school, at Gaines
ville, and will be with that institution
next term.
Col. Horton was elected president
of G. M. C. in 1912, and served until
the summer of 1917, when he was
! granted a leave of absence for one
Y” Hut. An admis- j 5' car - He did not return from France
until the summer of 1919. He was
elected co-president with Col. J. H.
Marshburn, and has filled that office
the past year. A few weeks since Col.
Marshburn resigned to accept the
chair of English in the University of
Oklahoma, and Col. Horton was elect
ed president for the year 1920-21.
the auspices of the D. A. R. for th
benefit of the
sion of fifty cents will be charged,
and twenty-five cents for children
and students.
This announcement should create
great interest in Milledgeville, and
the concert should be largely attend
ed.
Those who will take part in the
program, which will he made up of
songs and recitations, are talented
musicians and readers, and the en
tertainment they will give will he of
the highest class.
They have consented to give this
concert at the request of the mem
bers of the Nancy Hart chapter, be
cause they feel a great interest in
the work that is being done by that
organization, and are willing to con
tribute their time and talents.
