Editor The Georgian:
Interesting articles are appear
ing in your paper by Larkin and
Serviss on various scientific sub
tects. Among the most interest
ing to me are those which deal
with the atom and electron. But
l wonder if the attention of either
your readers of these authors has
been called to the microzyma.
AS the electron is now the unit
of matter and the atom, or the
term, is becoming obsolete, the
microzyma should go hand in
hand with this new term or unit.
For the microzyma, meaning
small ferment. is the unit Of phys

for police interference with a sys-

and who has contracted disease Is
now talking with the doctor, and
the father says: 'Ts it right, sir

Aren't there enough police TO pre-
vent children of Is from being
seduced like that? ] ask, IS II
right?" The doctor answers, No"
And the audience cheered. II Is
not right 1t is wrong. And the
wrong thing is going 10 be stop

The enthusiasm of approval
reached its height when the doc
tor exclaimed. hotly:
THE mystery and humbug in
which physical facts are envel-
oped ought to be swept away ana
young men be given some prido in
the creative power with which
each one of us is endowed. They
ought to be made to understand
that the future OF the race Is in
their hands and to be taught 10

This is great teaching. And We

jured wife Here is the dis-
logue:
DOCTOR-When the marriage
was proposed you doubtless made
inquiries concerning your future
sonin-law's income; you investi-
gated his securities; you salts
fled Yourself as to his character
You only omitted one point, but
it was the most important Of all.
you made no inquiries concerning
his health.
LOCHES-No.
DOCTOR-And why4
LOCHES-Because 1t is not ths
custom.
DOCTOR-Well, it ought to BE-
made the custom
And the applause stopped
him.
This IS very important. Legis~
lators may well take notice OF Il,
Preachers like myself are bound
to consider It. CIergymen of the
Episcopal Church in Chicago have
adopted a plan OF demanding such
certificates of health. I am not
yet convinced that this is the
right way to go about 1t. Yet it
is clear that something is going
to happen in this wonderful new
world of ours.
But to return to the play. The
doctor resumes: Before giving
his daughter in marriage a father
ought to take as much care with
regard to her husband as a house
of business takes in engaging au
employee" And again the au-
dience cheered.
Women are usually victims
Wives are polluted by their hue
bands. And the women led Tie
cheering-young, apparently I'M
married, women and girls led the
cheering. Let it be added to the
credit of the men, they Joined in
the applause. 1t looks as though
women were at last going TO de,
nand from men the cleanliness
of life which men have always de-
mHnded from their women.

Considered Seriously.
First of all, the character Of the
audience interested me.
Young men and young women
were in the majority. Very young
men and women, youths even and
young girls, were present. Girls
had come in groups, and many
had come accompanied by men
They sat through the whole of
the performance without appar-

there was some foolish giggling.
Mr.. Bennison, in the great role
of the Physician, stopped and
said: This is a very serious mat
ter, and we have only consented
to produce this play under a COM
pelling sense Of seriousness. II
the young women who are calling
attention to themselves do not
appreciate this, they may be eN-
cused and may have the price OF
their tickets returned at the Of
fee" Two or three foolish per-
sons among 100000 of the Amer
lean puhlic-it is a fine record.
1t is significant of the day we
live in that tens of thousands Of
Young people should see this play,
should see it together, and should
see It without any feeling OF
wrongdoing. Times have changed;
it is preposterous to blind our
ewes to this fact. 1t is useless TO
burn Brieux-for Brieux is burn
ing himself, his convictions, his
living gospel, into the mind and
conscience of our generation.
And. with great respect to the
ladies who have books to burn,
this is for the blessing of the
world.
This Is Important.
Not less significant was the

last evening, and much interest was
manifested.
The proposed parade plan was out
lined and following the parade there
will be masquerade balls. Some
years ago Hollowe'en parades were
held here and they we're successful
beyond the expectations of the most
sanguine workers at that time. Now
that there are improved streets the
marching will be easier on the par

greatest ever seen here. BY that

TIRE AIR PRESSURE
SHOULD BE REDUCED
Expansioa Principle in Hot Weather
Should Be Borne in Mind
hx AufomohiIisfa.

Almost every one Is aware Of the
fact that heat causes air to expand,
remarked NJ. T. Pollock. who handles
the Oldsmobile and Oakland lines. but
there are many owners of automobiles
driving their first cars who have not
realized the effect this commonplace
natural law has on tires.
"A thorough appreciation Of the re-
lation Of temperature to tires Is nee
essary IL one is to drive, a car with
the greatest economy and with the
greatest safety.
Tires of certain diameters take GER
tain pressures II they are properly in
hated. The temperature rises so high
these hot summer days that the air In
the tires expands and initiates the tires
beyond the maximum Of pressure.
While the tires may not always. as a
result of this high pressure, blow
through the casing. they may blow the
casing on the rim. 1t Is therefore ad-
visable during the hot period to keep
the air pressure down, and. generally
speaking, fve pounds less than normal
would be suficient for economy and
safety.
There is so much more friction when
q car is run at high speed that 1t is
advisable also to avoid excessively fast
driving during real hot weather II you
wish to be careful of your tires. Some
times II Is well to examine the tires
to see whether or not they feel unusually
hot. II they do. they should be treated
to pail OF water to cool them on"

AUTO STANDARDIZATION
IS STUDY OF BUILDERS
Following This Policy Has Made Pos
sible Invasion Of Europe by
American Machines.
ADVANTAGE TO ALL INTERESTED

That Standardization Is going to play
an even greater part in the automobile
industry than II has in the past is the
opinion of some Of the closest students
of motor car manufacture. The various
models shown at the automobile shows,
especially the medium-priced cars, indi-
cate that much has been accomplished
during the past twelve months along this
lire. In speaking of Standardization and
its future effect on the automobile In
dustry. ]. ]. Cole, of the Cole Motor Car
Company, says:
There is no question but that the
future growth of the automobile indus
try will largely be determined by the
readiness with which the public accepts
Standardization as an actual fact There
are two distinct tendencies in manufac-
turing among automobile makers, the
European method and the American. The
European maker relies on hand work;
the American maker on automatic ma
chineTy, depression of overhead charges
and the adoption Of standardized con-
struction.
las a result Of the American method
of manufacture, the American dealer
can sell an exceedingly good car at an
exceedingly reasonable price. The sue
cessful American invasion OF the Eu-
ropean continent is made possible by this
adoption of Standardization. 1t has been
responsible for the cognizance which the
European manufacturer has taken Of our
automobile industry.
The general impression hitherto has
been that there were only two types of
motor cars built in America. and that
these types were the manufactured and
assembled Any car. all the parts of
which are built in a single factory, has
come to be distinguished as the manu-
featured type. The car which Is as
sembled in a single factory. after its
parts have been built elsewhere, has
come to be distinguished as the assem-
bled car. The crux of the whole situa-
ton. however, Is that there Is no such
thing as a car all parts of which are
built in a single factory, and II is equal
ly true that the so-called assembled
type car is rapidly going out Of exist
ence.
The advantages of Standardization &C.
crue not only to the manufacturers but
to the dealer and user as well. After a
man has driven a standardized car he
will find that his opportunities for OBJ
tanning service on a tour are vastly in
creased II the parts of his car are made
by well-established accessory and parts
manufacturers. The large parts makers,
truly standardized car. maintain elabo-
rate service branches at every town of
importance throughout the entire coun-
try, and these are accessible to the
user at all times"
