NEW GAME LAW ADDS
FAR GREATER PROTECTION

Atlanta Oct. beginning October
LIST, the hunting season for deer. fox
and squirrels opened in Georgia. The
season will close January first Three
male deer is the limit for a single
huntsman for the season, under the
new law recently put on the statute
books by the Legislature.
The law pertaining to killing three
deer however, applies exclusively to
bucks. All persons are absolutely pro-
hibited under pain Of heavy fine and
Imprisonment, from killing or trap
ping any female deer until December
lst, 1916 This section was put into
he now law because of the scarcity of
deer. Huntsmen predicted last year
that unless some such measure were
passed, the deer family would be ex-
.inct in Georgia within less than a de-
,ade,

THE HAND THAT
ROCKS The CRADLE
philadelphia Record.)

1t is we'll known fact that the hand
that used to rock the cradle isn't do
ing it very much. We are making no
reference to the problem of race sui
eide, but to the fact that among all the
long-established things to which mod
ern science is hostile the cradle occu-
pies conspicuous place. There are
still babies-that - there are &c "a :
iunally still babies but rocking is no
part Of their regimen where thorough
j. up-to-date methods of rearing in
fants prevail.
The sociologists are divided On The
question whether this lack of rocking
is a cause or an effect. There are those
who hold that because the hand that
rocked the cradle has been thrown out
of employment by progress, just as
stage drivers and hand spinners have
been, it is seeking the ballot in order
10 escape complete idleness. There

are others, however, who believe that
the removal of rockers from cradles is
not the cause of the political activity
of women, but is the result of pro-
founder understanding of the effect OF
perpetual motion upon the interior ar
rangements of the infant.
However that may be, the issue be-
tween the scientific and the traditional
method of soothing infants is squarely
joined in Chicago, where an official Of
the Health Department says savagely;
"Self-rocking cradles are the DEVILS
own device" To which an overworked
mother retorts: They're a grand in
gention. l can't cook dinner and rock
baby at the same time. l used to have
to just let the baby bawl away. Now
the clockwork cradle stops its crying.
1t would seem to be obvious that If
the babies are to be rocked the self
rocking cradle is entitled to the re-
spect given to all labor-saving devices,
but that is not the opinion of Health
Commissioner Young, who declares
hat he rocks his babies himself and al
lows no one else to have anything to
do with the rocking of them, while the
assistant health commissioner says no
kind of a cradle is good for child; 4
cot is far better.
The cot is undoubtedly driving out
the cradle in the East, and it's inftu-
e0ce will soon be felt universally
through the West But so long as the
rocking continues We believe the
weight Of scientific opinion is that
cIocllwork can do it just as well as
