Another report hav been issued by
the Bo*rd of Trustees and Officers
of the State Sanitarium marking the
**ight-fourth annual report of the
Great Georgia Institution.
An examination of this report re-
'’-’"Is many interesting facts, and
should fill every Georgian with pride,
because it shows that this, Georgia’s
largest Institution, is being economi
cally managed and is acomplishing
great good for the mental and physi
cal defectives of our state.
All through the report one ran find
the mark of splendid and efficient
service. It shows real conscientious
effort by every member of the large
family required to keep the Sani
tarium going. From attendant
through to Superintendent a «
co-operation and sincere servic
depicted, and it iv our pleasur
congratulate the officials and
ployees of the Sanitarium on
splendid report.
One of the outstanding facts o
thrift has th<
ontract with an outside party f>
I n definite payment to be mat
egularly. Buying a home is an e:
mple; so is buying building ar
• I! shares, buying bonds on long-
L-rm contract, etc.
The contract should be a long-term
one; if it isn’t, there is danger that
the player will allow himself !o quit
hen it expires.
Contract for a tangible form of
iving—vuch as a home, which can
enjoyed while it is being bought.
The writer illustrates his pMnt
thus:

There isn’t a business man anywht

to do so. Business couldn’t last over

fact that public business cannot af

One criticism of the city manager
plan is that it is all right if you get
the right manager. Certainly, and
our experience in municipal govern
ment has taught us that no system is
much bet'er than the personnel back
of it—and yet there is this to be said
about the city-manager plan, it is in
it elf an evidence of a protv healthy
tate of civic winscience, that is to
fay. by the time a city reaches the
point of calling in a city manager it
probably has got far past the point
of tolerating professional incom-

NOTICE
All for rent, want ads, lost and
found ads will be run for cash
only after this week’s issue of the
Union Recorder. This policy is
adopted due to the great loss that
has been had in this department.
The Decenary expense for book
keeping and billing that has to be
done when these ads are charged |
makes it impossible to continue i
charge accounts for this small |
amount. Tbe amount is always |
small, but the loss of several ofi
these ads each week make it I
necessary to adopt this policy. i
We will appreciate your co
operation in this matter and will
