The Summer School students Trade with yo The live merchant advertiiw his local paper. es of Milledjfevilk 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 wise jt r.iaking u.< thorough prepara tion a, possible. son why there should be Eugene Talmadge.

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. Milledgeville, Ga., June 12th, 1928 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 | street, which if you do not stop in will 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.

We have done much to show ourselves alert and ■eady to go forward, but we have con- ented ourselves with inside devclope- nent and have passed up many of the qipnrtunitiey that are ours. In like manner we know of no town in the state that needs n real live or- nkratinn representing the business, professional and industrial life of the ityas does Milledgeville. There have been attempts made to organize and keep active n Chamber ommercc.

We will no mention names here, saving this fo Intel when ivill havi say. The Chanrber of Commerce daily receives much mail that comes from people who are interested in coming here and are asking about the possibilities of Baldwin county. Many of them are concerns who are in posi- th.ut will b erial aid t • public institution with- the ■ that has to that of the Georgia State Sani tarium. The efficient management, splendid system of operation and eco nomical basis upon which the state Hospital is operated bus caused much commendation to be cast upon the heads and officers and Board of Di rectors of the Sanitarium. Pratically five thousand patients are handled at the Institution annual ly at a cost of sixty-two cents per patient per day, .which is a remark able ecord of ical ugv- ment. The various and complicated procedure of treatment, as it would appear to the layman is carried on in a most efficient manner and the rapid steps forward the treatment and care of the patient* have been most gratifying to those interested.

Now I know that these people don’t pay as much taxes as some others in town, but they pay on what they have, and it jeems to me that they are due this little consideration, and especially since it will not cost the city one cent, as I have been told and believe that a request from the city to the Georgia Railroad, will ge: the matter attended to by the railroad ith ivhat ■ the Our people living out there de- • to have this rotton place in Jefferson Street corrected, and I hope that you and your valuable paper will join with us in nut ef fort- to have it done.
