Y. M. c. A. CONVENTION

The Twenty y-ninth Biennial State
Convention of the Young Mems Chris
tian Associations of Tennessee will be
held in Chattanooga, the Mountain
City," February 1923.
An unusually strong programme has
been arranged which will include not
only some of the most prominent Asso-
citation leaders in the country, but a
number of other speakers of national
reputation.
A special invitation is extended to
laymen and others in towns where no
regular Association exists to attend the
Convention. Information regarding
special railroad rates and hospitable
entertainment at Chattanooga can be
secured by addressing V. T. Grizzard,
Secretary State Committee, 152 Fourth

abounds with attractions of historical
interest, including Lookout Mountain,
Chickamauga Park and Missionary
Ridge.
In material development and spirit
ual growth the past two years have
been marked with unusual progress.
We are confronted, however, with large
opportunity for extending the benef-
cent influences of this agent OF the
Church to all classes of men and boys
in our State. 1t is fitting and imper-
ative, therefore, that there should be
at this time large and representative
gathering of strong young men OF the

AN IOWA JAG LAW.

The action - the Iowa Supreme Court in
uphOlding the COssOn law. under which
public officials may be OJsted for intoxica-
ton, confirms the removal of A IT. Hen
dersOn as Mayor OF Narengo. The court
interprets the statute literally ana declares
that the question OF drinking goes To
mans qualification for Office, and that
though this habit is an issue in the elec-
tion and the people decide IN his favor, he
can still be kicked out OF Office for look
ing on the wine when it is red.
But the problem is not free OF difficulty.
No fast and rigid rule viii cover all cases.
IL makes a lot OF difference. for instance,
whether the intOxication is habitual or
occasional. whether il is frequent or rare.
We suppose that hundreds OF public Offi-
cials who on occasion drink more than is
prudent, but who are. nevertheless. very
efficient administrators. may be found in
the United States. Moreover. Il isn't al
ways easy 10 determine Just when a per-
son is drunk. Observers often disagree
concerning a mans condition. If a per
son who has been drinking Is in the twi-
light zone bordering on tntOXicatiOn. con-
sCienttOus people would hesitate to affirm
or deny that he is drunk. The question is
debatable.-HaTtfOrd Times.
