Enoch was good. he walked with God,
and served him faithfully. Enoch must
have lived under very adverse spiritual
conditions, for he lived only about three
generations before the world got so wick

nelghbors lead him astray. You so often
hear in these times the thread-bare ex-
cuse that So-and-So has been led astray
by bad associates. Walk with God as
Enoch did and your bad neighbors cannot
lead you astray.
David was a great man, he had many
of the Goth century failings and as high
aspirations as any Christian. His soul
yearned aftsr righteousness. yet so many
times he let the world the flesh and the
devil control him. Christ came and show

how TO conquer pride and i'll temper and
wicked thoughts and as the years pass
believe that mankind's ideals rise higher

COMPULSORY EDUCATION
PROPOSED IN NEW BILL
Six Representatives Introduce
Proposed Law in House.
Courts Are Agents

Six representatives introduced bill
Wednesday morning in the house. which
provides that parents shall be forced
to send children of from 6 to Is years
of, age, to school during so days of
each school year.
1t differs from the Littleton compul-
sorry education bill. defeated at the last
session of the Legislature. in that it
leaves the enforcement of its provisions
to the courts, instead of TO school com
missioners.
Children who are exempt from this
compulsory schooling are those who
are physically or mentally unfit, those
who have completed the fourth grade
in the educational work prescribed by
the state board of education, those who
live more than three miles from the
nearest school house, and those who are
excused by county or municipal school
boards
HOW ENFORCED.
As means of enforcing this propos-
ed law principals of common schools
shall be required to make monthly re-
ports to county or municipal boards of
the number of children enrolled in their
schools. These boards shall then COM
pare these lists with the latest census
returns showing the complete number
of children of school age living in the
various school districts.
After this comparison the boards shall
report to county grand juries the par
ents and guardians who are not sending
the children under their control to
school during the required so days and,
if no good reason is given for this non
attendance. the parents or guardians
shall be indicted.
THE PUNISHMENT
Such person shall be subject to a
fine of not more than $40 and costs, or
Imprisonment of not more than 10 days.
All fines collected shall be applied to
educational purposes. This act shall go
into effect January /.
It was introduced by Messrs. NOEL
reath of Fulton. Westmoreland of Full
ton, Alexander of DeKalb, Blackshear of
Richmond. Pierce of Richmond, and Gar
lington of Richmond.
1t was referred to the committee on
education.

A TRUE EXPERIENCE


Dear Household: have just had what was
unique experiences for me. We who live I'm
the edge OF the world seldom have any expert
enee out Of the ordinary sort. My husband Is a
railroad man and one evening last spring he
brought an old woman home with him. He Is
not At home much. as be is a section foreman
and I lead a lonely life. IL one can be lonely
with her two babies ana sue chickens and
..MoIlie' he called as he up the
steps. '-here is somebody TO keep you COM
! found a woman about 60 years old she
had motherly face. but anyone could see
that she had worked harder than had been good
for her.
Henry had he told me that she had attempted
20 ride without a ticket OF course the con-
dnctor had not put her off until ne reacned
cur station and while the engine was taking
water he hunted Henry and told him about her.
The conductor thought yshe had money and
that = little scare would do her good.
The upShot Of II was that she promised to
stay with me- she said that she was on her
way to our nearest city to get work. that she
heard there was plenty OF work and goou
spent too much before she bought her ticket
after stopping in Chattanooga.
To hear that woman talk was revelation:
She had been In all of the cities in the west
and had kept her eyes open. One day said
mo wonder you have money II you have
been to all those places, year here and SIX SIX
must have taken all you earned
She looked at very straight and said
with a queer little smile. when my husband
died and my boy followed him ! couldn't stay
there any longer. l paid the last cent out TO
bury Jimmie and then / sold or gave away
all | had except what / could put In one
trunk and out I started. l got on the train
and went TO another place. Soon the feeilng
drove me on. l didn't have any money but
some men on the train paid my way and the
conductor sent hack for my trunk. as could
not get a check for IL. That was years ago
Now ! haven't even a trunk, bundle what
I can in my suitcase. Sometimes the conductor
puts me off but he can't do that until he
gets 70 the next station. and sometimes
good woman or man helps me out.
She did her share Of the work and some
times / gave her money. thinking that she
might want TO buy something. hut not one cent
did she spend the month she was with me-
One day I went 10 mothers TO stay tili
the next, and when I got home no Mrs. Land
was in sight aud the only thing 1 know Is
that she tagged the fast train not two hours
after ! left and told the conductor Henry had
asked her to 60 10 town for some medicine
I've wondered about her many n time She
earned all she got at our house, and Henry
would have given her the money or ticket
hut guess she wouldn't have enjoyed that
sort Of n rice. This is true story; let's hear
from the next one. Yours truly,

May Fl, 186-LinCoIn Had His First Experience in Dpo-
macy-Turnng BeIigerent State Paper Into Harm
less Confidential Dispatch t o Foreign Minister

This statesman who on April / had ex-
pressed his willingness to assume the
presidents duties and to declare war
against all Europe in the hope that north
and south might thereby be cemented,
had not greatly changed.
He had seen with regret the depart
ments of war and the navy become the
center of activity, and that of state com,
paratively little regarded. He believed
that he should be premier, that on his
efforts depended the salvation of the
country, and that a foreign war was
preferable TO civil one and might even
avert 1T.
He was deeply incensed by the news
communicated by George M Dallas, Mr..
Adams predecessor, that the British
minister was planning to receive the en-.
voys of the Confederacy, even IL unoff-
cially, and to take common action with
France as to the recognition of their gov
eminent
Those ENJOYS had been received and
Mr.. Seward wrote to demonstrate.
WHAT SEWARD WROTE.
In substance Mr.. Stewards letter to
Minister Adams was sound and vigor-
Gus, we'll worthy of Stewards confessed
abilities. 1t insisted first, That there
should be no intercourse between the
British government and the Confederate
ENJOYS, official or unofficial, and in,
structed Adams himself to 'desist from
all intercourse whatever with that
government so long as its relations
with the Confederacy should continue
The letter argued strongly against
any recognition of the Confederacy by
the British government, even as a bel
ligerent, although that had in fact al
ready been granted by the proclamation
of May 10. That, Mr. Seward declared.
was mot to be borne" by the United
States. Lincoln softened the phrase to
''pass unquestioned."
In it's conclusion the letter stated:
I'VE are not insensible of the grave i'm
portance of this occasion. We see how
upon the results of the debate in which
we are engaged a war may ensue be-
tween the United States and one, two
Tor even more European nations
If IL come, it will be fully seen that it

This and the following clauses Lin
coin at first decided to omit, but the
rendering of the whole letter confiden-
tial made this omission unnecessary.

Fifty years ago today Abraham Lin
coin made his first essay at diplomacy,
By revising letter of Instructions which
his secretary of state, William H.. Sc
ward, had prepared for Charles Francis
Adams. the newly appointed minister to
England.
He so altered this dispatch as to make
It a confidential letter to Mr. Adams
and not. as Mr.. Seward had intended.
an ultimatum to the British foreign Of
fee.
Lincoln thus gave proof Of a deep
understanding of diplomacy. and very
possibly averted war between the Unit
cd States and Great Britain.
Mr.. Stewards letter. as first written,
demanded In substance that England
refuse all sympathy to the south, on
pain of suspension of diplomatic rela-
lions with the United States. The Ian
guage was such as might have led Eng
land to recognize the Confederacy. sup
port it, and. II need be. side with it
against the United States.
The unhappy possibility was removed
by Lincoln, who more clearly than Sc
ward saw the need of the continuance
of friendly relations between his gov
eminent and that of England. and found
the way tn combine a proper dignity
with diplomatic suavity and politeness.
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1911-07-21
Stewards OWN ATTITUDE.

That the letter, so ILL timed. should
have been written at all was due to the
personal views Of Mr.. Seward as to the
proper attitude TO be taken by the Unit
ed States toward foreign nations.
In a letter to his wife. a few days be-
fore, he said Great Britain is in great
danger of sympathizing so much with
the south for the sake of peace and cot
ton as to drive US to make war against
her. !. I am trying to get bold re-
monstrance through the cabinet before 1t
