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. Col. Poi tle in introducing ihe ora- ... u„. day. Prof. Kyle T. Al friend, was very happy in his choice of words, anc >f the crowd. 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.
