A Clergyman's Text: If Christ
We're Member of Wilson's Cabinet" "
Rather Difficult Text for Preaching.

Barnett rector of the Episcopal Church Of
Our Redeemer Philadelphia preached the text at
the head of this article Christ Were Member of Wilson's
Cabinet"
read opinions from various citizens and then gave his own
views which, the whole, not exciting
He thought Christ Wilson cabinet would oppose Dol
Diplomacy that he would abolish monopoes and forbid the
building of fourteen million dollar battleshps.
thoughand that his best suggestionhat Christ
would take all children the mines mills He suggest
ated pretty generally hated while then fifty years
have a monument erected to his memory.
Since Reverend Clergyman sets the example 1t may be per
ntted continue his speculation
opinion that nobody and perhaps least of all
the Reverend Barnett what Christ would do if He
member of Wilson cabinet
would probably ask great many questions to start with
and they might be something like this;
How that all here to talk of
for those ALREADY prosperous?
consult bankers manufacturers but
that carrying heavy loads in the streets?
that you all look nicely dressed smoothly brushed
and well fed WHEN THOSE WHO SHOULD HAVE YOUR FIRST
THOUGHT ARE ANXIOUS, WORRIED AND UNHAPPY?
How you explain that land that could easily
support perfect peace and comfort thousand millions
sisters permit the thin population
to live life of worry and anxiety?
How societies that take of old horses
and old og-and take old and old women?
There is no doubt Christ Wilson's cabinet would be
denounced respectable captastlc social
s of dangerous kind And respectable cergymen
denominations would preach against Him. telling Him to re
spect property and vested interests.

tn HE "Ornithologists Union"
founded in London, England,
fifty-five years ago, marks
the practical beginning of the now
widespread propaganda for the sal
walton of the birds. Out of the Or
nithologists union came "The Plu-
mage League" formed by Lady
Mount Temple and the Rev. Mr..
Morris, The Audubon Society" to-
gether with various other similar
organizations, and today, wherever
civilization has made itself felt, the
cry Save the Birds" is becoming
familiar to everybody.
1t was in the true bird that the
Soul of Nature was first manifest
ed. Long before the true bird ap-
peared upon the scene there were
great bird-like reptilian creatures
flying through the murky air: but
we may be sure that they did not
sing. Nature has a fine sense of
the fitness of things" and it would
have been the very madness of in
congruity TO have attempted to
make ArcheopteryN Warble
But by and by-very late. geo
logically speaking birds came.
and in the first bird song Nature
gave the earliest intimation of the
fact that She was more than ma
terial, that underneath the mate
rial lay the Spiritual, that She had
soul as we'll as a body.
Speaking of civilization. one of
the best signs of the fact that it is
at last really beginning to make
itself felt in human society is to be
found in this same widespread in
terest in the birds.
For a long, long time, civiliza-
tion, so called, was largely material
and brutal then came the civiliza
tion that was somewhat less coarse
and hard, but characterized by util-
itarianism and the practical: and
now, in spots, at least, the human
world is beginning to be influenced
by the sense of Beauty-the spirit
ual beauty that tremblcs in the
thgoats and shines i'm the p.umaCc
of our "litt.c brot prs Of the air."

Letters From The Georgian's Readers

Georgia win sound like an export
ment and am mheard-of punish
mcut Such extreme punishment
uractiCod among our boys would
work untold harm. for they would
realize early thar the deed and tine
sentence were incOmptible. and
would therefore have a disgust and
aversion for ou. laws and courts.
This would mean not reformation
but deformity. for which the courts
would be responsible. If it takes
eleven of the most precious years
of Ollie Taylor's life to cleanse

1t Takes Such Affairs as
the Appelbaum Case,
HeSays, to Wake People
Up to Conditions Exist
ing at Their Very Doors.
WRITTEN FOR THE GEORGIAN
By REV. DIR. JOHN E. WHITE
Pastor Second Baptist Chtlrc

TIME inauguration OF a Demo-
crat at Washington was too
much for the Appelbaum
sensation in Atlanta.
The sorry crime in the Dakota
hotel fell out of the headlines with
a thud.
The public is ever impatient for a
change Of reels in its great news
picture show.
SO the man in the street said:
81 am glad we are done with the
Appelbaum case"
But we are not done with the
Appelbaum case.
Atlanta Georgian., 1913-03-11
Blindest Bats of All,

Great big citizens who have eot-
ten tolerably away with the "svasr
Of good time at the club are some

business. Also, The Boss is the
biggest thing In the shop. Wha.
he says goes, and what he does
goes, too, and often long ways,
for somebody toward the jail and
the Hangman's Moose.
But the blindest bats Of all are
the over-reflned gentlemen who
would keep Appelbaum out Of the
newspapers and put the public head
in the sand neck deep, for fear it
will hurt the town to proclaim that
Millennium is not incorporated yet.
The way to Millennium leads by
Armageddon-a most sulphuric
noisy battle.
Atlanta Georgian., 1913-03-11
They Are the Real Things.

Perhaps Appelbaum killed him
self. Perhaps he helped some one
do the deed. Perhaps some one
helped him to assist in the tragedy.
Perhaps the killing began a long
way back. Perhaps we all helped
him help some one else to help
him die so miserably
Atlanta Georgian., 1913-03-11

A woman who holds still a place
in some human hearts is yonder at
a window in the Tower.
She is not done with the Appel
baum case.
over in Alabama "the old folks
at home" are not done with it.
The little church and school of
her country town that had a girls
soul for the making of good
woman are still tangled up in it.
Only the man whose dead body
lay so long unclaimed, now at last
in the forgiving earth's bosom,
seems to be well out of the Appel
baum case.
Somewhere on the earth. nobody
knows where, another home,
church and school are subtly mixed
up with his mischief.
This Great Confusion we call
Great Civilization, all through, in
and out, is involved in It.
It must be brought back TO face
the questions:
VINO killed Appelbaum? \ pls-
toll, some ounces of lead; these did
not kill Appelbaum.
Why did anybody kill him? A
spasm of jealousy a brainstorm
lunacy, or the mysterious. possible,
other mad Nemesis in the room

not enough to answer.

PONS ASINORUM.

From the following, after a
glance at the heading, one would
think Bro. Edwards Of the Able
Vile Meridional considers the eX-
animation questions handed out
to the teachers in this state as
not only strong but obstre-
porous:
The examination of school
teachers has been in progress here
this week. From all accounts the
examination We're about the
limit. They are Il living example
of intellectuaIty gone to seed !;
an effort to discover not how
much useful knowledge the teach
err possessed but how many
damphool questions he could not
answer The chances are that
the educational pcryert who
framed these wonderful queries
has not the common sense neces-
sary TO pilot mule down a corn
row though he may beat Sam
Hill digging ort Greek roots. We
feel sorry for the poor teachers
to know that they have fa'lcn into
the hands Of the Phiistincs and
can only hope that the day is not
far distant when few practical
IDEAS gain entrance into the top
heavy skulls Of the educational
experts who stand ON the firing
line TO riddle the poor pedago-
CUE, who wants a job Adver.

THE LIMIT us NEARLY
REACHD-

One Of our exchanges wants TO
know what is the limit in wo-
man s dress. Judging from the
exceedingly scant attire of some
women who belong TO the fast
and fashionable set the limit must
be nearly reached. Why Is it
that some women seek to be az
immodost as they can Is a mys-
terry TO every sensible person VI
they could but realize the disgust
and contempt they evoke among
self-respecting people, it might
lead chem TO the consciousness
that modeStv is a virtue and a
charm still held in highest regard
among most people and especial
among people who are worth
knowing. The loud young wo-
man with maximum Of assur-
ance and minimum Of clothing
simply breeds disgust, even
among people who may for var
ious reasons outwardly applaud
what they inwardly condemn
