Hoke Smith Welcomes Educators To Georgia Says Teaching Negroes How To Work Intelli gently Will Facilitate the Race Problem. ATLANTA, Ga.—On Wednesday night Governor Hoke Smith made the address of welcome to the South'- n Educational convention, which is now in session In Atlanta. In the course of his remarks he said: “Mr. president and Ladies and Gen tlemen: "In behalf of the entire Slp.te I ex tend to you a sincere weleotw ana thank you for holding here this con ference for education. "While I know that tin- majority of your hoard of con'ro! are souther,l men, we may well find reason for congratulation that you come from all part* of (he country and that your program contains the nanles of great thinkers from many sections. "Ours Is a laud of vast area and diversified Interests. It Is well to bring together men and women from localities far apart that we may per sonally know each other, and better understand our common wants and common destiny. As we know each other better, sectional differences give away to patriotic devotion to our country and an Increased desire to serve the human race. "It would he strange If In such .t gathering as this there are not found diverging views. None the less I welcome you to Georgia The man who has faith in his own views should be pleased to meet the man so unfortunate as not to agree with him "The great educators here gathered are all leading us In the same direc tion even though they point the way by different roads. We will grow In knowledge from free discussion. Practical Education. "I deem It eminently proper that a successful business man should pre side over an educational conference. There was a time when the profes sional educators, absorbed In their books, were too fur away from the real problems of life, hut that time Is rapidly passing, and with the true educator It 1s already a thing of the past. "Education should lit the young and the old for the duties of life, to enjoy Its pleasures and to be prepared for Its responsibilities. It should begin with the cradle and continue to old age. No system of education Is su!- flclent which seeks alone to impart knowledge from book*. It must build character and force, and must pre pare the child to lie an actor in life's struggles. It should as Nr as pos sible develop the child along lines which the child will probably follow 111 after years. Education of the "The presence of a great *ii udiUpp of negroes In the HOuth D problem which must In- uojJwtTtood. I do not believe that those \wfio dwyll upon the work of negro Iptyjtutjegs Into which a few hundred of the igiMf enter, comprehend the question, yff™ real negro educational problem Is found in the six million of noßtoos who do not enter these Institution* and who arc utterly unsultvd for the opportunities which they offer. "1 refer to the great body of the negroes engaged lit the simplest line* of iiiunual labor. "These people are descended fium ancestors who a little more than a century ago were savages In Africa For a whl%- they were compollt J t.s labor. Industry was forced upon them. Since this conditions ceased, freed from restraint, they are prone to Idle ness and to carelessness, even when at work. Tssch Blacks to Work "The first step In the education ot this great body of the negro raos is to Inspire a desire to do ortter the labor they are called upon to per form, and to rid them of a willing ness Hi live poorly if perchance a meager support can he mane with half time labor.

"The negro who uses the hoe or uses (he plow will tie lifted to a high er standard when he ean be given the Inspiration whleh will eome from efficient labor and Incr > ised industry.

"I am gratified to tetl you that pro gress Is being made In the educa tional work of this state. The amounts being piild annually tor edu cation from taxation are rapidly In creasing Nearly every municipality with as many as five hundred popula tion bus an organised public school system continuing from eight to nine tlon from the state treasury supports months annually. The approprla the rural schools for nearly six months In the year, and local taxation supplements this appropriation In many school districts extending the school terms to from eight to nine months. "There are two conditions con nect'd with our educational progress to which I would especially call at tention. With the Increase of manu facturing enterprises, It Is Important that we should guard against placing children within factory walls, and we must see to it that the children of tbe factory sections are not only given a chance to live and to grow in the open air, but we must insist that they be trained In Slchoo! for the re sponsibilities of life. "Our manufacturing growth would be a curse if with It we are to per mit the presence of a population wont by drudgery In childhood, and deprived of proper mental, spiritual and physi cal growth. Improved Rural Schools. “The greatest opportunity for spe cial effort upon educational lines which our section presents Is in the rural nchcols. "The power of our nation, the pro servatlon of our free institutions, must depend largely upon the rural population. Here Is the omtortatiU " for Independence even for those with limited resources. Here Is the op portunity for the growth of a citi zenry not so absorbed In the accumu lation of wealth as to lose patriotic impulses, and not so constrained by the danger of falling into the class of -the unemployed as to be subservient to the dictation of employers. "The population of our entire coun tryy could, earn a comfortable sup port upon the farm lauds of the south. "That line of educational wont which turns the thought of the clti zen to the farm, and helps make com sortable and enjoyable farm life, is the surest of fruitful returns. We are seeking to do all possible in this state to nld In this direction. Georgia’s Agricultural Schools. "Our state college of agriculture is devoted to Investigation and to In struction upon advanced thought and scientific practice applied to the farm. We have eleven district agricultural schools Iri which the boys and girls are not alone taught from books, but In which the great object Is to give their minds and hearts the proper de sire for broader observation and knowledge of thorn- things which ap pertain to /arm life and farm endeav or, while they are also taught how with ti;'‘lr hands to best execute what they learn. Make Farm Like Attractive. "1 welcome you to Georgia becauso your program manifests an Interest In the great problem of farm life. “1 rejoice In the prospects for the removal of that Isolation which has In Ihe past so much handlcappetj the man engaged upon the farm. Good .roads, facilitating easy access to ma •• Sum, and bringing the soclul opportn iift,les from which the farmer has been deprived, Should greatly stimu late agricultural efforts. "It Is the duty of the nation and Ihe state to aid In the removal of the drawbacks which Isolation has placed around the farmer. "Encouragement by the nation and the state of co-operation among ths fanners for the purchase of their sup plies, for the sale of their products, for the investigation of those ques tion which concern their occupations, will go far to Improve the opportunity of tills class of our citizens. "Good schools for (heir children are absolutely necessary. Keep Lands for Small Farmers. "Above all we should resist evorv effort to absorb farm lands by great corporations. It Is from the farm, ■worked by the man who owns It, that the greatest benefit* to nation and state and to all the people will come, and It Is such holdings that the nation and the slate should encour age "Georgia has just broken up the lease system and placed the convicts upon the public roads. It is hard to estimate what thl* will do for the Improvement of rural Ilf" and the de velopment of the agricultttrnl re sources of the state. "Tne study of our educational problem* carries us beyond the school house into the home. It requires the Investigation of all thase live sub Jeets that tend to Improve the con dition. and advance the capacity, and add to the happiness and content went of our people. "Education Is the problem of life. It is the preparation of the child an! the man to be, and to do all which the opportunities aurroundtug him makes possible. it Is the very es sence of human progress and hitman development. ' the highest purpose of man should be to serve ills God. his coun try and his fellowmen, and those who study how man can grow in heart and mind and hand are engaged In service which Involves all three, service to God, their country and their tellow- Otn.

OYER jv THE LOCKS? Point Raised in Tiger Case in Police Court Will Be Carried To Higher Trib unal. ' The case of Levi Beale, a negro, j charged with violation of the city’s blind tiger ordinance, was tried by Recorder Picquet. Thursday morning. Jieale was charged with selling whis key at the locks. The point arose as to how far Into Columbia county the city has Jurisdiction. Recorder Pic quet decided In favor of the city and I made the fine $25. Alice Knobb and Fannie Carpenter 1 testified to buying whiskey from Beale. They said that he had his buggy, from which the whiskey was sold, about 40 yards from the pavil ion, which Is in Columbia county. A good many years ago the city bought twelve and one-half acres of land at the locks and the legislature passed a special bill giving It police authority In that part of Columbia county. Mr. Nisbet Wingfield testified that the pavilion was in Columbia county, but that he did not know where the line of the city of Augusta’s property was. He stated that the city claimed the hill at the locks, as did the man who owned the adjoining land. The case will be carried to the su -1 perior court. A survey will be made, and the line established. The police are very anxious for the decision to be made, so they will know exactly - how much territory they have auth [ orlty over. There are numerous pic nics there every year, and the police Igo up to keep order. LOST: Carrier Book. Lost Tuesday afternoon Herald Carrie’s Book No. 4.

City State i All Druggists Have a Remedy That They Guarantee to Promptly Re lieve all Stomach Distress. People go on suffering from little stomach troubles for years and imag ine they have a serious disease. They over eat or over drink and I force on the stomach a lot of extra j work. But they never think that the stom ! ach needs extra help to do extra work. If these people would-take a Mi o-na tablet with or after meals it would be a great big help to the stomach In its strain of overwork. No matter what you eat or drink Mi-o-na tablets will sweeten your sour stomach and stop gas belching in 10 minutes. The heaviness disappears and the stomach is greatly aided in its work of digestion. And Mi-o-na not only promptly re lieves all distress but if taken reg ularly will absolutely cure indiges tion by building up the flabby over worked walls of the stomach and making them s-rong enough to digest the most hearty meal. All druggists sell and guarantee Mi-o-na. The price is 50 cents a large box. Booth’s Laxative Pills are pleasant, gentle, sure and safe. If all others have failed Booth’s will give satisfac tion; 25 cents at all druggists.

TO PALE, THIN PEOPLE Druggists Green & Horsey Offer to Pay For Samose if it Does Not Make Thin People Fat. Pale, thin people are simply suffer ing from want of nourishment. They may eat enough, but thetr food is not properly digested and does them no good. » Samose, the remarkable flesh form ing food, should be used by all who are pale, weak and thin. It mingles with the food and aids assimilation, so that when taken for a short time. Nature will soon assert her normal powers, and the food that is eaten will give strength and good flesh. Samose is a scientific fle9h-forming food that restores the thin and scrawny to their proper weight, and fills the weak and debilitated with vigor and vitality. The woman who longs for rosy cheeks and the plumpness of beauty should use Samose. The man who wants to be strong and well and gain health and good flesh, will find his desires accomplished by Samose. Such remarkable results have fol lowed the use of Samose that Drug gists Green & Horsey are willing to pay for the treatment if it does not give the desired results. They make this offer general and want all who are thin, weak and out of health to get a box of Samose from them on those terms. Sent postpaid on receipt of price, 50c.
