Summer School at Cleveland
The board of trustees of Cleve¬
land High School and the under¬
signed have made arrangements
with Prof. J. W. Marion, to con¬
duct a summer school in the school
building, beginning about the 6th
of June and continuing for six
weeks. This school will be for
teachers and hrgh school students
who expect to take the state exam¬
ination for license to teach in the
schools of White county and others
who would like to attend.
The day has come when the
State of Gejrgia will expect those
who teach to prepare for teaching.
Teachers’ salaries will be increased
and teaching will be more profit¬
able.
The children of White county
must have as good teachers as are
in the State. They deserve this
and must have it. If you cannot
take the time to prepare lo teach,
in all fairness and common honesty
to yourself and to the children you
teach, you should quit and letsome
teach who will make the proper
preparation.
We must make our schools what
they should be, and in order to do
this we must have trained teachers.
We have good eachers, but they
must continue to get better. This
is a day of educational advance¬
ment, and we of White county
must keep up with this movement.
Take advantage of this school. It
will help you and you can do much
better work alter you have spent
tnis time on a good summer school
preparing yoursalf to do the great¬
est work known to man—to teach.
Respectfully,
C. ft. Edwards, C 7 S.’S. '
Protect Range Animals
From Poisonous Plants
Estimates made in many locali¬
ties indicate that the average loss
of range animals as a result of feed¬
ing on poisonous plantf is as great
as j to 5 per cent, while in some
range States the percentage is
much higher. In Colorado it is
estimated the loss amounts to ti,
000,000 annually, while sheep rais¬
ers in Wyoming have placed their
annual loss as high as I4.6 percent
of their flocks. Specialists of the
United States Department of Agri¬
culture point out that these losses
to a large extent are of mature an¬
imals ready or nearly ready for the
market, and for the rearing of
which large sums have been spent.
It is especially important for
stockmen in range States to be¬
come familiar with poisonous
plants, particularly in the spring
when the slock crave green food
and when in some casses poisonous
plants offer the only green forage
that is available. Department Bul¬
letin 575 of the United States De¬
partment of Agriculture, tells how
to identify many of the plants that
have caused thousands of ansmals
tQ sicken and die. This bulletin
contains numerous colored piciures
of the plants and is obtained from
the Superintendent of Documents,
Government Printing Office, at 50
cents each. It also gives methods
of treatment for animals poisoned
through eating such plants. The
bulletin aims to give help of such
a nature that scientific knowledge
will not be necessary in making
use of the information contained.

State Highway Engineer Here
Wednesday
White County Has Chance For Two
Roads II They Get Busy
Mr. Morgan, the Ninth District
Highway Engineer, while in town
Wednesday called in to see us and
during this short visit he informed
us that if the people of White
county only knew how anxious the
State Iligway Commission were to
see a good road through the county
there would not be any hesitancy
about voting bonds for the con¬
struction of a permanent highway
through White county.
White county, he said, is the
only county in the Ninth district
that has not voted bonds or sought
state aid for roads. What do you
think of this, Mr. Citizen? Do
you want enlightenment? You
must either go forward or
—you cannot stand still. What is
White county doing? Of cour-e,
you know she is not
like the other counties, not only
road construction, but in industrial,
development. Did you 5jnow tha
a county is not rich because it ha
natural resources, coal, iron mines,
and fertile valleys or prairies. I
takes honest, industaious men to
make it rich, and to make the
men is a more difficult task than ti
make the tools they use or the
they enact. And with our county
not taking forward steps towards
every advancement, don’t you sei
and realize what position, disad*
vantages and environment
must mingle and struggle through!
If you don’t, may God have com*
passion on you for your lack
vision and weakness.
Mr. Morgan told us that the
State Highway Commission had
not settled on any definite survey
across the Blue Ridge and that the
gap above Robertstown would be
looked over and surveyed as sodn
as they could get around to it.
Many of you know they have al
ready started the survey out of
Gainesville and are coming to the
White county line, provided White
county will do anything, and he
stated there was a possibility of the
people in the districts of White
Creek Blue Creek and ShoalCreek
districts to have a highway from
Cleveland to Clarkesville and to
intersect with Dahlonega through
Shoal Creek if they go after it
hard enough.
Now is the time for White coun¬
ty to get busy if they want these
roads, and you cannot wait all
summer to begin talking it either
In fact, the work should be begun
this summer. Let every one who
wants these roads get bury NOW !

i The Result of a Joke
T f WO GIRLS WERE working in a shop several
years ago. The question of saving money
came up, but these girls said they could not spare any¬
thing from their small earnings.
But just as a joke one of the girls said: “I dare
you to start a savings account and see who can save
the most.” So they started.
A few years later one of the^e girls quit working
to j^et married. She was surprised to find $600 in the
->. sum at such a
The other girl is still working and sha continues
her visits to the bank each week. Her account is well
above $2,coo now and it is growingjfast. Her interest
money is more than her first year’s savings amounted to.
Perhaps tin's story will suggest a plan that will work
as well for you.
