Why | Attend
Church

Superintendent Hornady read to
the Methodist Sunday school of Daw-
son the following article by Con-
gresham Claude Weaver of Okla
homa, published in Leslie's Weekly
of August 18th, telling Why he at
tends church. At the request of
Representative Ferris unanimous
consent was given to incorporate the
article in the Congressional Record:
1t is sweet on a summers morn
ing, when the air is aquiver with the
love songs of the birds and fragrant
with the odOr of roses blown, to hear
the music of the church-going bells,
an invitation to the world-wearied
to enter Gods temple and find peace,
because the instinct of worship is in
the heart of man and the church is
the temple of the living God.
l go to church because l find peace
there, that peace which De Quincy
described as a resting from human
labors, a Sabbath of repose, respite
granted from the secret burdens of
the heart, as if l stood at distance
and aloof from the uproar of life;
as if the tumult and fever and strife
over me a dove-like and halcyon
calm.
l go to church because l love the
music that l hear there, the mighty
roll of that divine stringed instru-
ment, the human voice, untwisting
all the chains that tie the hidden soul
of harmony.
I go to church because l like to
/ hear the teachings of the preacher,
whose soul is dedicated to God,
whose field is as wide as Gods unf-
verse, whose theme is the destiny of
man, and whose words are the ora
cles of Fate. Marvellous is the spell
of the preacher to whom God has
given genius and conservation and
the power of illustration drawn from
the old, sacred, immortal Book, and
from the miracles of nature, no less
revealed in the crimson-tipped flow
er turned up by the plowshare of
Robert Burns upon the soil of Ayr
than in the long reaches of the star
grit skies.
go to church because the way
is dark and l am far from home, -
and because the church is the polar
star to light my pathway in the ray
less night.
| go to church because che church
ministers not only to the spiritual
but also to the material needs Of life,
and because it is there that the char
tiles that soothe and heal and bless
are scattered at the seet of man like
| flowers.
l go to church because in that at
mosphere vice and crime wither and
die.
l go to church because l hear the
teachings of the philosophy of Jesus,
the Incompatible man; and if you
say his teaching is philosophy and
not religion and that he was a man
and not a god, then the philosophy
of that man has redeemed the world
from savagery and blessed man
kind with christian civilization, and,
to my mind, it is a thing worth while
to hear.
1 go to church because I find there
consolation and hope; because 1 see
there the dawn and not the sunset;
and it is better for man, If the hope
is baseless and the vision but an elus-
i've phantom, to cherish a dream so
glorious and beautiful than to be
weighted down and crushed with the
quarried mountains OF a world with
out hope and without God.

Timothy d. Sullivan's life was, as
another has put it, "a romance of the
Bowery." His was undisputed sway.
He knew human nature, and he prof

himself to hold undisputed authority
in his own district. But he made
Sheehan chief when Croker left, and
when Croker came back and demand

ed it from Sheehan to place it in
Cookers hands. Sullivan took any
office he wanted. He did not desire
much in office-hOlding. He was a

From BOOtblack
To Congress

A delegation of congressman
led. Behind this delegation march
ed the longest funeral train the
East Side has ever seen. The
streets through which they passed
were sombre with the crepe on
the shop windows. The Timothy
D. Sullivan Association sent its
thousands of marchers behind the
body of it's standard bearer, each
man with a bit of crepe on his
sleeve, over the long dusty way to
the cemetery. Dozens of other
East Side organizations and the
army of the Bowery poor were
also in the line.
Seldom has the East Side mourn
ed more eloquently. In the army
that passed by his bier as the body
lay in state men in silk hats
rubbed shoulders with Bowery
tramps, and women in silks and
furs mingled with their poorly clad
sisters from the tenements. Many
wept as they passed the coffin.

Corn is going to be corn during
the coming twelve months, or until
a new crop comes in. The crop OF
1913 will certainly be less than that
of last year-probably billion bush
els. That means growing prices for
corn. The wheat crop is also mate
rally less, and that means increased
prices for -four. In making their
plans for another year the farmers OF
Southwest Georgia should not over
look liberal acreage of oats and
wheat.

diversity their crops that are more
profitable than cotton. Cotton is one
of the most deceptive crops that is

to make the farmer think that he is

before the staple is picked and baled
he is wondering how he is going to
pay his debts without mortgaging
the land that produced it. The main

was due, rather, to the failure of the

THE statement Is also made in the
article in question that much OF the
loss is due to intestinal and kidney
worms. It Is true that occasionally a
hog will be lost from intestinal worms.
Very seldom indeed is a hog lost from
kidney worms, although occasions
have been recorded. 1t is unquestion-
ably an exaggeration OF the grossest
kind to state that the losses this fall
in this state have all been due to
worms Of any kind.
The suggestion is made that physi-
clans should make occasional post
norton and microscopic examinations
and thereby determine the cause of
the disease. Very rarely indeed is it
possible to find a practicing physician
competent to establish a positive
diagnosis of cholera. 1t is
able to suppose that a man unfamiliar
with the appearance OF the organs OF
cholera hogs should be able to dag
- the disease. Further, nothing
would be learned from a microscopic
examination because this part Of the
disease is an open book t o all educated
veterinarians.
The writer already referred to
above suggests that the agricultural
college take up the work OF ~investiga-
ton, with the idea that some means
may be secured whereby hogs may be
saved. In this connection, it may be
we'll TO state that the veterinary de-
partment of State College is engaged
in the manufacture of hog cholera
serum. A quantity of this is now on
hand, orders for which are on file. The
production of potent serum is being
urged by every possible means and be-
fore the eas closes, it is hoped a
considerable quantity Of the sesum
will be distributed among the farmers
of this state.
1T seems most improper that a
person not thoroughly familiar with
the various conditions surrounding an
ootbreak of cholera, the post-mortem
evidences of this disease, the know
ledge of animal parasites and a know
ledge of the only known means for
the control of this disease aside from
proper feeding and sanitation, should
offer advice to the farmers for the
control of cholera when the adviser
knows so little about the disease"

writer, a lawyer, made several state.
ments which are OF such nature as n

who do not recognize the contagious.
ness Of cholera and the best means for
its control and prevention. In the ar.
ticle just referred to, the statement is
made that it is extremely doubtful II a
single hog in this state has had the
cholera. 1t is, Of course, possible that
other diseases may be the cause of
losses, but it Is not probable that
any Of the other causes would no AZ
widespread, not only in this state. but
in all the hog-raising states, as to
cause the death of thousands OF hogs.
The statement is made that hog
cholera generally results in almost i'm
mediate death. This is not in accord
with well known facts. Hog cholera
may assume various forms and II NAV
50 happen that when the outbreak Is
virulent, e hog may show NO external
symptoms until he Is about to die
era by any a Other cases less
acute may show symptoms OF the dis
ease from several days to several
weeks before death occurs. When the
disease assumes a more chronic form
the hog may show typical symptoms
OF cholera for several weeks, and oc.
~casionally make a complete recovery.
"A third statement in the article
already mentioned is to the effect that
hogs v~aciinated with serum for the
prevention of cholera die more RAPIDLY
than others not sc treated. This NAV
be due to several causes, namely:
the use Of impotent serum. the use of
unclean instruments, or the applica.
tion Of careless methods in the hands
of incompetent persons. II has been
fully demonstrated time and time
again that when potent cru is prop
erly used on healthy hogs, the results
will be mos satisfactory. No claim
is made for the serum as curative. All
hogs having cholera when vaccinated
are almost certain to die. Many times
farmers or others, in their efforts 10
hogs, vaccinate those showing no
external symptoms of the disease, but
which may already be developing clear
cases Of cholera. These hogs die and
the serum receives the blame. When
the ~vaccinating is being done, any hog
that is suspected Of being diseased,
should have its temperature taken be-
fore vaccinating. If the temperature
reaches los F. or more, it is evidence
Of the presence Of the disease. Such
animals should mo- be vaccinated as
their loss will be almost certain.
