police are trying to help a storekeeper
locate a man who asked for half a dozen

"LOVE AFFAIR”
Be sure and see this comedy drama.
Where a couple break their engagement
and agree to meet in six months. At the
end of that time something unexpected
happened. Irene Dunne and Charles
Boyer will furnish you plenty of enter
tainment during this show.
Friday
“FAST AND LOOSE”
If you saw “Fast Company” don’t fail
to see “Fast and Loose.” You will find
plenty of tense mystery, flanked by fun,
humor and romance. Look for fast stuff
in every direction, but you won’t have to
look for that baffling mystery you’ll find
it all the way through. The hilarity and
contrasting love story will keep you spell
bound. If you remember Robert Mont
gomery in “Three Loves Has Nancy” and
Rosalind Russell in "The Citadel,” you’ll
have “Fast and Loose.” With a well
supported cast.
Saturday
“FISHERMAN’S WHARF”
Fathers should bring their sons and
sons should bring their fathers to see
this “FATHER-SON” picture, detailing
the great love an Italian widower has for
his adopted boy. All is serene and happy
between them until the man falls in love.
Then there is mistrust and discord until
the climatic sequences. This will be Bobby
Breen’s sixth picture and there will be
songs for him to sing. Starring Bobby
and Leo Carrillo.
Also
“FRONTIER PONY EXPRESS”
A Pony Express rider saves the army’s
documents from Confederate spies. Star
ing Roy Rogers and Mary Hart.
Monday and Tuesday
“MIDNIGHT”
Again you have the chance to see
Claudette Colbert and Don Ameche in a
comedy drama. Claudette is stranded in
Paris and pretends she is a baroness, she
is aided by a taxi driver who poses as
her husband. Francis Lederer furnishes
you plenty of entertainment.
Wednesday
“UNDERCOVER DOCTOR”
Breath Bad, Logy ?
You May Need This
Just as the lighthouse flashes a
friendly warning to sailors, so
Nature sends out headaches, bad |
breath, biliousness, which often
warn of constipation.
Too many misunderstand or neglect
those symptoms and thereby may
invite a host of constipation’s oth
er discomforts: sour stomach, belch
ing, loss of appetite or energy.
Be wise. Take spicy, all vegetable
BLACK-DRAUGHT tonight by
simple directions and clear your
bowels gently, promptly, thoroughly.
This intestinal tonic-laxative helps
give tone to lazy bowels.
Its long life and popularity testify
to BLACK-DRAUGHT’S merit

“BETTER EDUCATION FOR GEOR
GIA MOVEMENT”
(By Ralph L. Ramsey, Director)
Technical Work
In every organization, there are cer
tain duties of a technical nature which
are seldom explained to the general pub
lic for fear that the laymen is not pri
marily interested. Still, it is often a
good thing to run the risk of boring a
school patron with the necessary expla
nation in the hope that the spirit of rap
port between the servants and the served
may not languish for want of adequate
exposition.
Big Business
Great business concerns, such as Ford,
General Motors, International Business
Machine and American Telephone and
Telegraph, have developed practical edu
cation to the high point of industrial
history. In the stress of competition, each
found that the surest method of main
taining prestige and profits was by a con
tinuous improvement of standards. This
involved, first of all. a group of research
men who would spend their full time in
studying ways. and means of improving
the product. Secondly, it involved the
reaching of these new methods to their
complete organization. The process is con
tinuous. Every day something new is
discovered, and every day this new thing
must be taught to the personnel.
Accrediting Commission.
Among the education forces of the
state, we have the Georgia High School
Accrediting commission, under the lead
ership of J. Harold Saxon, university
high school inspector. Its job is to pro
vide for high school education the same
sort of continuous appraisal that we
have seen occur in the business world.
Its job is also to safeguard impression
able schools and communities from being
swept off their feet when a useless ed
ucational fad becomes popular. Contrari
wise, it provides for the growth of the
curriculum so that the lag between edu
cation and life as it is will not become
so great that a school becomes hopelessly
oehind times.
Specific Duties.
The commission represents the colleges,
the high school, and the state in approv
ing a list of high schools for certifying
to the higher institutions. It co-operates
with the Georgia Commission on Approv
'd Two-Year High Schools and with the
Georgia Commission on Standard Ele
mentary Schools.
In 1903, when the commission was or
ganized, there were only twelve accredit
d high schools in the state. So ably has
the organization labored that in 1937
there were 481 accredited schools, with a
jump in enrollment from 420 in the be
ginning to more than 86.000 today.
Influence
In the final essence, whether or not
your daughter or son receives the educa
tion that you as a citizen pay for depends
on the accrediting commission. If stand
ards are not high enough, the money that
you ve spent in putting your children
through high school might as well be put
in a drain-pipe. Mr. Saxon, in his ca
pacity as secretary for the commission,
might be called “inspecting engineer,”
for like he who examines concrete as it
is laid for the highway, he must deter
mine whether the taxpayers’ dollar is
getting what it pays for. Incidentally, a
three and a half months school term could
not conceivably qualify as a standard ed
ucational product, any more than a dirt
road ean qualify as an A-l concrete
highway. For this reason, the responsi
bility on this educational engineer’s
shoulder is enormous, and the commis
sion’s work is commensurably valuable.
Standards of Accrediting.
Tn practically all the school systems
of the state, there is a great eagerness
on the part of local administrators to re
main on the accredited list. Unfortun
ately, some systems—usually because of
political complications—have lost their
standing. Sometimes the local trustees
are at fault. They are not sufficiently
informed as to the standards that must
be maintained. Once in a while the school
administrator, even in a comparatively
wealthy community, neglects his system
for reasons other than financial ones.
But in most cases, a school has lost its
standing because the community itself
has not realized the mockery of having
i school whose work is not recognized.
Other Agencies.
There are a number of other educa
! tonal agencies in Georgia that are do
g a splendid work. From time to time,
we shall discuss the work of each. At
present, with our unsettled educational
situation, we have many deficiencies in
service that would not have occurred
otherwise. No one as yet has been able
to run a decent organization of any kind
without money. Perhaps, in the near fu
ture, a brilliant mathematician with
training in elementary magic can accom
plish this feat.
