New Jersey Colored Teachers seek Equal Pay New Jersey Colored Teachers seek Equal Pay (Lincoln News Service) Jersey City Mar. 4, 1924. - According to a resolution recently passed by the Organization of teachers of Colored Children of the State of New Jersey, colored teachers in Solem, Cape May, Cumberland, and Monmouth counties are receiving lower salaries than the white teachers. The resolution claims that colored teachers in these four counties are in many cases receiving from $100. to $200; less annually than the white teachers, and it states that should this salary preference continue the morale of the teaching force will break down and inflict an irreparable injury on school children who stand in need of tutelage. This same resolution says. "A lower salary schedule must inevitably attract an inferior grade of teacher to the colored school, preventing the colored school from maintaining an effi cient standard; many of New Jersey's school children are in this manner denied equal educational opportunities and the spirit of the States Constitution is violated. YOUNG AND ILL-TRAINED TEACHERS DISCUSSED (Lincoln News Service) New York, Mar-5, 1924. Of interest to the 35,500 colored school teachers, and of deep concern to the parents of the nearly 4,000,000 colored school children is the recent statement made by Professor William C. Bagley, Professor of Education at Columbia University, who said said: "The weaknessess of the the American public school have been referred to again and again; but these weaknesses have not often been traced to their sources. Generally speaking, the soul and center of every school is the teacher. The chief weakness of American education lies in the temporary and transient character of our teaching population. Nearly one-half of the 70,000 teachers who do the work of our elementary and high schools are young girls from 15 to 25 years old. They are only in mature most of them are quite without training for their very responsible duties. The great problem of American education, as I see it, is to correct this condition—to provide for every American classroom a trained and competent teacher." Investigation shows that in our group there 12,211 female and 718 male teachers under the age of 25 years and of this number 2,774 female and 140 male teachers are under 20 years of age. Colored Boy "Speed Artist" wins Remington Typewriter Washington, March 5, —Cortez Peters, a graduate of the D department of Business Practice of Dunbar High School, 1923, has been awarded a brand new No 12 Remington typewriter for accuracy and speed in an officially-conducted test. Young Peters wrote 67 words a minute from an unfamiliar copy for 15 minutes without error, causing the Remington Educational Director to say: "The paper of Cortez Peters is one of the best ever received by the Company in ten years." The young 'phenom' has just been appointed as typist-clerk to one of the important committees in Congress. CLARKE COUNTY FARMERS IN SAVANNAH MEET Messrs. D. A. Starks, W. F.

The new building is quite an imposing structure on Athens Avenue, with a fairly good equipment to take care of the children who attend it.

SHERMAN, Vice Pres. Treas. E. W. LANGSTON, Recently the Guaranty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company sued out papers for the purpose to increase its Capital stock from $25,000 to $100,000. It sought further in the application the right to engage in the life insurance business as an old line Company. The prayers of the Company were granted and the Guaranty Mutual Life and Health Insurance Company by the grant became the GUARANTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY with all the rights and immunities of the other big Corporations. After the legal phrases of the situation were cleared away, the Guaranty Life Insurance Company placed upon the market the $100,000 worth of stock at the phenominally low rate of $200.00 per share. This stock is now open to the public and agents all over the state will take the Certificates to the very doors of prospective buyers. The Guaranty Life insurance Company, by virtue of the existence and splendid accomplishments of the Guaranty Mutual and Health Insurance Company, will be no strange constellation of insurance firmament. The established reputation of the former will impotus to the latter, and it is reasonably expected that the stocks of the Guaranty Life will "go easily" because of the enviable reputation of its predecessor. The officers and directors and stockholders of the old Company form the basic actors of the new Company. They will put imto the new company all of the vim and vigor utilized in the interest of the old plus additional effort of new factors injected for the purpose to accelerate the upward trend. The Guaranty Life Insurance Co. realizes that this is a day of big things and that still bigger things are peeping over the horizon of material progress. It is keeping watch upon the "last" in order to catch first indications of new ideas and to hasten the coming by lifting before their sight and keen convincing proof that we are alive and have been working to prepare the way and to unite with projectors of newer ideas and more pronounced action.

March 8,1924 East Athens School Genteel, Well Governed Needs Chapel Some months ago the spectator visited a school in a Georgia city that boasts much of its location and its name. The building contained about six rooms, four on the first floor. The second floor, unfinished and unimproved, was used for public exercises, a part of it having a semi-partition across it and was used, the spectator was informed, by certain fraternities. Classes were heard in three of the rooms on the first floor, the fourth room being used for a coal house and for rubbish. Had the spectator been able to borrow the authority of the Mayor he would have marched this young principal (a college bred man) to the city, made him purchase a pair of overalls and a broom (for the entire building was dirty) and play Janitor for a while, removing this coal also into a piano box. "Like priests; like people." The Negro business places in this town were the filthiest that the spectator had ever seen. In stricking contrast with the miserable situation described above, the spectator left off his works a few days ago and made his first visit for the year at at the East Athens School, an institution whose government and the deportment of its pupils would inspire the most satiated misanthrope. This school iskept as genteelly as the Massachusetts state house. The pictures on the walls are well chosen and are systematically and symmetrically arranged. The work done by the pupils indicates that a set of people are teaching them who "know how" and are mindful of innovacations. The ringing of the bell is thoroughly understood by every child and is instantly heeded. Thus is the day of orderly sequence begun which is to be seen in the crowded chapel, in each class rooms, and which does not vanish until after the dismissal of the night school when it is no longer necessary. The school is in great need of chapel: it should have one with a seating capacity for quite a thousand people. Some of the little folks not having seats when March 8. 1924 they go to the chapel, following nature's call, sit on the floor. Brethren, let's be manly and of good courage. Let's practice paying taxes, going to the polls and voting, Let us practice talking the right things at the right time. We mean those things concerning our civic and our political lives. If we do this, the good principal of the East Athens School will succeed in getting the chapel that she needs--and she and her co-workers be blessed. YOUNG CHRISTIANS TRAINING CLUB MEETS The Young Christians' Training Club met at their usual meeting place Tuesday night, March 4, 1924. A very lifeful prayer meeting was held on this night. Nearly all those present took part. The members were very glad to welcome Miss Nina Hopkins (Sister Nina Hopkins) who had been converted since the last meeting. Those attending this session were: Revs. J. H Horton, W. B. Hayes, and J. L. Brown, Misses Nina Hopkins, and Susie Braswell, Deacon Whit Hill, and Bro. Brooks, Messrs. John and Bufus Hightower and Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Alexander, the host and hostess. MOUTH HYGIENE and MOUTH SEPSIS BY B. L. JACKSON, D. D. S. 'INTRODUCTION' Hygiene—Hygiene is that branch of sanitary science which treats of laws of health and its preservation. Oral hygiene—Mouth hygiene treats of the health of the mouth and its preservation. Sanitary science-The science which includes a consideration of all that can be done for the prevention of disease and the promotion of public health. Sanitation, therefore, is prophylaxis, and prophylaxis is the prevention of disease. Health-That condition of the body in which all its organs are performing their function in a normal manner. A hale or whole condition of the body. A noted monarch once said, "The health of the people is the supreme law." THE ATHENS REPUBLIQUE A sentence more wise than this was never spoken by human lips, for the idea it expressed lies at the very foundation of all material, intellectual and spiritual progress of a nation; and without it no true national greatness can ever be attained. This fact is becoming more and more generally recognized by all civilized nations, and much interest is being manifested by the public generally in the efforts that are being made to stamp out disease, improve the public health, and increase longevity? Physicians generally are teaching their patients the value of observing the various common rules of hygiene and sanitation and personal cleanliness; and yet the majority, the great majority have not yet learned to appreciate the fact that an unclean mouth is most prolific if not the most prolific, source of danger to the health of the individual of which we have any knowledge. Dr. Oster in a recent address before the students of the Royal Central Hospital of London, said, "You have just one gospel to preach and you have got to preach it late in season and out of season. It is the gospel of the mouth: cleanliness of the teeth; cleanliness of throat. These three things must be your text through life."

GUESS ?? What two widows have dissolved their spat (one of those occurrances in the temple of courtship like a cataract in the course of a river) into the revival of love and affection? The weekly visit is looked forward to as in former months. Perhaps some one in Greensboro can tell. A tall, graceful young chevalier, who is frequently seen with Miss at the cafe came stepping up River street Sunday night at church time. We wonder what had drawn him down in that section? 3 A certain young professor, of the "Art Preservative" has for many weeks had the exclusive pleasure of courting a young woman also of the professional realm. During those weeks, making the Harris Drug Store his haven, he would soon be seen making his way leisurely to the habitation of his fiancee. To the show They would go, Wandering to and fro Wherever lovers may. But lo! the scene has changed! A knightly lad, "to the manner born," whose vicissitudes during the past two years include attendance upon the Plattsburgh (New York) Camp, an institution second in military tactics only to the renowned West Point, returned to the city a short time ago. Soldier like, he set out at once to reclaim this mademoiselle of his school days—and succeeded. You can imagine what became of the professor. It is rumored that his upper lip has slightly fallen. Stork tracks are seen early in the morning in the section west of Milledge. Sometimes they are seen in Billups street and again a few of them appear in Reese street indicating the apparent journey of the distinguished bird toward Rockspring. A Burns' detective has been appointed by residents with the hope that he will discover what this long-legged fellow is up to. COMMERCE NEWS A Surprise Party at the Home of Mr. & Mrs. Wesley Christler Miss Valley Colbert, the daughter of Mrs. Crisler and Mr. Owen Williams, of Jefferson, honored Miss Lula M. Henry, of Athens, Ga., with a much appreciated surprise party. Miss Colbert invited Miss Henry to spend the night with her and Miss Henry accepted the invitation.

Republican Senator Would Expose Race-Haters (Lincoln News Service) Washington, March 4th 1924. Senator Wesley L. Jones, of the State of Washington, made a valiant but unsuccessful attempt to expose those who voted against the confirmation of Walter L. Cohen, nominated by President Coolidge to be Gomptroller of Customs at the Port of New Orleans, and rejected by a vote of 37 to 35. Senator Jones, in an open session of the Senate, said. "I ask unanimous consent that the injunction of secrecy be removed from the vote taken yesterday (February 8, 1924) on the nomination of Walter L. Cohen to be Comptroller of Customs at New Orleans, and that the vote be printed in the Congressional Record." However, Senator Robinson, Democrat from Arkansas, was quickly on his feet with an objection, and the motion to expose those who turned down Mr. Cohen was lost. THEE APHENS REPUBLIOUER 6 a y= Mrs. M.
