* ural, on the forced
growth of vegetation, compared
with heat, artificial or natural?"
This question opens up rare
field for discussion.
Both heat and light are re-
quired for plant development.
Which has the greater force is
difficult to decide, but a plant
would live longer in total dark
ness without heat than in cold
absolute. but in light.
The problem of white light
shining on plants is very ancient
one; but the dispersion of white,
sun or electric arc light into a
long spectrum, where the constit-
uent colors are separated out and
then allowed successfully to fall
on plants, is modern, of great in
terest and by no means yet fully
understood.
Suppose that we have plants
that can move, not fixed by
roots. Thus, whatever bacteria
are, whether plants or animals,
they are perhaps more nearly re-
lated to the vegetable than to the
animal kingdom. And this point
is not clearly determined; the
line OF division is so irregular
that it is not fully located.
Some bacteria are very active
and others comparatively still
Some have cilia-delicate. hair
like appendages-and these en-

WRITTEN FOR THE GEORGIAN
BY REV. DR.. JOHN E. WHITE
Pastor Second Baptist Church

If It is a fundamental right
eousness that human beings
should submit to the regulation
of sex relations, then it is spirit
ual outlawry. a fiaunt at the face
of Heaven, for men to excuse
themselves and go excused in So
ciety.
1t should not be considered
strange if the protests for a
square deal goes further than it
ought to go.
The Peril of "Everywoman.
Already there are indications
that the female protest against
the freedom of men to f1out virtue
is manifesting perilous tenden-
cies.
One has but to mark the ven
turesome fashions in woman's
dress. the tendency of defiant i'm
modesty, the inclination to mas
culine vices. the neurotic dances,
in which women assert their
boldness, to become painfully
aware that some new spirit Of
abandon is at work among
women.
1t is to be condemned and re-
sisted. Very we'll. but go a little
further and interpret it.
With the female consciousness
aroused to the point of new and
justifiable self-assertion, t lie
double standard in morals is a
direct provocation of immodesty
among women.
Men have been their leaders
and their masters in the era Of
their subsection, and now that is
ending, they are tempted to fol-
low men in the exploitation of
their freedom and to defy con-
ventions and restraint of moral
prohibitions.
Ihls Interpretation of the mani
ifestly immodest tendencies of the
day may shock some minds, but
it will stand fair in others in
the absence of a better.
Calling Men to Task.
1t should at least indicate that
men must know human nature
well enough to understand that
a double standard in morals is a
rotten basis for healthy society.
If women will have equality of
the sexes before moral and So
cial law it will come in one of two
ways-by the lowering of the fe-
male standard to the present level
Of the male standard. or by rails
ing the male standard to the level
of the present female standard.
In one case or the other the
woman movement will inevitably
call men to task.

The Double Standard in Morals
Is Doomed, He Says. Either

or Women Will Come Down
to Men.

VUyHEN Mr.. Bryan and the
w puffy little Mr.. Coin, of
Chicago, were conducting
their Financial School, the pub
lie became familiar with the agi-
tation against monometalism in
protest of the single standard in
money.
When the woman movement
gets its second wind the public
is going to be made familiar with
monomoralism in protest of the
double standard in morals.
AS the fashion now stands. So
ciety is addicted to the crooked
est hypocrisy toward its male Of
tenders.
Under the necessity of main-i
tanning in some way a condem-
nation of personal vice and of
keeping it's function of moral in
dignation from falling into dis
use entirely, society out Herods
Herod against weak and betrayed
womanhood and smokers in its
sleeve over the original sinner
who happens to belong to the su-
perior sex.
1t is a simple matter of moral
mathematics that when women
reach the maturity of their social
selfhood we will have a show
down on this question.

A Square Deal.

The connection of monomor-
alism with the woman movement
is obvious. It is not merely a
pithy issue, of accidental injustice
to be snatched up for effect.
The double standard in morals
is a piece of social legislation,
logical from the assumption of
woman's inferior place in society.
That point established, masculine
superiority makes laws to suit
itself and men see to 1t that they
do not bear too heavily on them
selves.
On the other side, women &C
cepting the claims of the highest
morality upon women, vigorously
execute the penalty against fe-
male unchastity and thus are
forced to play directly into the
hands of a gross injustice
But there is a growing sense in
women that the double standard
of morals is an outrage against
righteousness. They see that it
only encourages the rapacity of
men, and therefore diminishes
the moral security of women.
The consideration of eternal
Brightness. the demand of truth,
the integrity of moral law is also
boring its way to the quick of
woman's conscience.

In describing the Eton and a

WHAT BILL PROVIDES

The bin provides, of course. for the
establishment in Dublin of an Irish
parliament. consisting of two houses.
Full power to legislate for all Irish
affairs, as distinct from imperial af-
fairs. will be in the hands of the Irish
parliament. Among the affairs re-
manning in control of the imperial par
lament are those having to do with
the rown. the army and navy, old age
pensions. national insurance and land
purchase acts and. for the present. the
Irish constabulary. Ireland will not
be permitted to impose any customs or
excise duties. but can alter or abolish
such duties as are imposed by the i'm
perial parliament. She will control
her postal service.
Special safeguards are provided for
the protection of minorities. The Irish
parliament will not have power to es-
tablish or endow any religion or inter-
fere with or give preference TO any re-
ligion.
Collection of taxes remains an impe-
rial function. but the imperial ex-
ehequer Is TO pay to the Irish execu-
tive an amoun equivalent TO the ex-
penditure on Irish service at the time
of passage of the act.
The deficit between the Irish reye-
nue. and expenditures. calculated at
about $10,OO0.0OO, will be borne by the
imperial ~excheCuer. which will also
give an annual grant. starting at 81
100000 and being gradually reduced to
enable the Irish government to pay its
way.
Control Of the Dublin police and the
appointment of judges will be turned
over to the Irish government imme-
