WHY NOT ATHENS GIRLS?
Those Who Should Teaoh In Our City
Schools.
There are many young ladies in
Athens who are almost thoroughly
qualified to teach In our City Sohools
and all they is a little normal training.
From time to time there arise vacan
cies in the city schools which of course
have to be filled. There is no reason
-why they should not be filled by
Athens girls if they haye sufficient
training for the work.
The Normal School out at Rock Col
lege presents a splendid chance for all
to secure that necessary training and
we would advise all young ladies in
Athens who contemplate teaching to go
oat acd partake of the benefits of that
institution.
