The Union Recorder is the oldest
enterprise in Milledgeville. It has
been boosting this city a long num
ber of years.
A man who comes in conturt with
his fellowmen day after day, owes
it to himself and to hi* community
to be phusnnt in his dealing with
them.
There is nothing that will destroy
the nobler sentiments of the human
heart an quickly and effectively as
cherished hate, and the desire for re
taliation.
The G. S. C. W. Summer School
has brought to Milledgeville hun
dreds of teachers from all section of
.Georgia, who are being better equip
ped for the work of teaching the
young. A great responsibility rests
upon these teachers and they are

This is a time when the people of

A HIGH RECORD OF EFFICIENCY
THE NEW PRESIDENT OF G. M. C.
Prof. Geo. S. Roach comes to Mil-
ledgcville to accept the Presidency of
G. M. C. with a splendid record »s
in educator. He ha* become recog
nized as one of the leading school
men and teachers in the State from
•he results that have been attained
in the schools he has taught and
•.upervised. He has taught in the
schools at Warrenton and Moultrie,
and for the past seven years he ha*
been superintendent of the schools
at Ashhurn. He believes in discip
line and scholarship, and that n school
which does not measure up to the
highest ,-tundurd along these lines is
a failure, and is not accomplishing
the purpose for which it was estab
lished. and conducted.
Being a strict desciplinarian. he
gives thought and effort to impress'
upon hi* pupils the importance of
obedience to authority, and an ad
herence to rules and regulation*, and
the necessity of applying their time
to their studies, in order to develop
their minds and character.
Prof. Roach is a young man, and
enters upon his duties as President
f the College, with a full realization
of the great responsibility he has n»-•
>d. and a great faith in the fu- !
development of the college. In
behalf of the peop'e of Millcdgeville,
the Union Recorder extends Presi- •
Roach a cordial welcome to the j
and college, and wishes for hint,
the greatest success in directing the'
ffairs of G. M. C.

Editor Union Recorder,
Milledgeville, Ga.
Dear Editor:-
I presume that there i* not a single
progressive citizen of Milledgeville
that does not look with pride, upon
the recent improvements made to the
street- and to the town in general
by the last and present administra
tions of this city, I belivee there has
been more progress made in Milledge
ville. in thin line, than in any twenty-
five years period heretofore, but
there is wtill one situation un-remedi-
ed aitho it has been constantly
brought to the attention of the city
futhers, by a good many others as
well as myself, and still nothing has
been done to correct it, I refer to
that portion of North Jefferson
Street, where it is crossed by the
tracks of the Georgia Railroad, at.
their depot.
The tracks are now and have been ]
for yours running acrosy this street,}
with ihe rails elevated above the dirt |

J. O. BLOODWORTH ELECTED TO
LEGISLATURE IN FLORIDA
The Union Recorder received a
telegram Friday morning of the past
week from Mr. A. D. Nisbet and Mr.
Groves Bloodworth, announceing that
Mr. Oscar Bloodworth had been elect
ed to the Florida Legislature from
Polk County, of which Lakeland is
the county seat.
Later information brings the news
that -Mr. Bloodworth won by a *ub-
Htantia! majority, carrying the home
precinct of his opponent and Lakeland
by a large vote.
Mr. Bloodworth went from Mll-
lcdgveillc to Lakeland about seven
years ago. and has been engaged iti
the real estate business. In making
his race he announced a platform
against ring rule, and 'advocacy of
a rule by the people. He spoke from
the same platform with his opponent,
who had the reputation of being a
splendid stump speaker.
The friends of Mr. Bloodworth in
this city extend him congratulations
upon the popularity he has shown in
his adopted home, and are confident
that he will represent his county moyt
creditably.
