flower of his youth but the doc
tors tell you that they can not save
him.
But" you say, so many others
with that malady recovered" "Ah,"
replies the doctor, but the trouble
with him is that he has gone the
pace that kills He has burnt up
his vitality in dissipation. He has
got nothing left with which to fight
disease" And so the boy dies.
His chickens have come home 10
roost.
The woman who has no friends
is the woman who has never kept
her sharp tongue from saying the
thing that she thought was witty,
no matter how badly it hurt an
other; she is the woman who has
ridden roughshod over other peo-
pies rights and pleasures; she is
the woman who has been so selfish
and so determined TO have the best
Tor herself that she has never sac
rificed her own comfort for any
body else. Sarcasm, and greed. and
jealousy, and envy, and hardness of
heart are the chickens she's Matched
out, and as age darkens around her
they all tlutter up to their roost
pole in her heart.
Character Not Made in Day.
But the woman who has been
loving and tender and kind; who
has thought of other people before
herself; who has been the first to
so with a helping hand to every
one in distress about her. who has
shrouded the dead, and pinned on
the wedding wells and cuddled the
babies wherever there was need of
a woman's sympathy in JOY or sor-
row, never complains that her old
age is lonely, or that people don't
like to have old women around
them
Her birthdays are smothered in
remembranCes. Her old friends
cleave to her as David did to
Jonathan. Young people come to
her with their condolences. Her
chickens come home to roost, and
they are called love and tender
ness and honor.
Character isn't made in dav.
1t isn't made up Of one act. Nor is
success or failure determined bv
one single spectacular deed, for in
the end, whether we 90 the big
thing or not depends on whether
we've done the myriads Of little
things right. The man who can be
trusted at the top Of the business
is the man who was faithful at the
bottom OF it. 1t is the man who
saved his pennies when he was
young who has his thousands when
he is old.
AS we have sowed, so must we
reap. The law never changes. our
chickens always come home to roost.

By JOHN H. JAMES,
Mayor of Atlanta in 18z1-18z2

| believed 50 strongly in rev.
dictionary charter reforms a
year ago that voted for COM
mission government. or rather
the charter that was supposed
to embody the ideas of COM
mission government.
The need for changes is great
er today.
The trouble | see with our
city government is that the
council has shirked its duty
and responsibility.
Board after board has been
created, and the old boards
have been enlarged.
Council once elected the
heads of the various depart
ments, and was responsible for
their conduct. The depart
ment heads who are not named
by boards now are elected by
the people.
ThrotOn Aside Responsibility.
Council has thrown aside this
great responsibility, but it has
also lost control of the func-
tons of the city government.
The head of each depart
ment is independent of all au-
thority.
What business the council is
supposed to transact is done
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-01-03

by committees. The sessions of
the council are taken up with
pickering and useless debate.
| think a return of the au-
thority and responsibility of
the city government to council
would solve the problem.
May Get the Wrong Man.
Every class of citizens and
every section are represented in
the general council. 1t is a
truly representative body.
Give its members authority
and demand results Of them.
| do not favor giving the
mayor more power.
1t is possible that we would
get bad man IN that office.
In our council of 80 men,
bers, though, we can depend
on a majority of good citizens.
These will insure us against
amy crooked work.
/ am a man of few words
but | want to urge radical re-
vision of our charter.
We are not getting the right
sort Of results for our tax
money.
We are wasting money on
salaries in the city hall, for one
thing. In proportion to what
men in private life get for the
same work, they are too high.
