WHAT power, if any,

~ WHAT power, If any,
y. has light, artificial or nat:
X 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 a 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-
able them to move. The micro
scopic objects move and live and
have their being in a drop of
water.
Place a drop on thin glass
plate, lay another plate on this,
tiatten the drop, put the glasses
under a high-power microscope
and view all in range of vision
with white light direct from sun
or arc. All will be normal Now
place a prism between sun or arc
in the beam of light, separate it..
into a long band of colors and

" ERE in the heart Of this world,
Here in the noise and din.
Here where our spirits were hurled
To battle with sorrow and sin;
THIS is the place and the spot
For knowledge Of infinite things,
This is the kingdom where Thought
Can conquer the prowess of Kings.
Wait for no heavenly life.
Seek for no temple alone;
Here in the midst of strife
Know what the SageS have known
Stand not aloof or apart;
Plunge in the thick of the fight.
There is the street and the mart
That is the place to do right
Not in some cloister or cave
Not in SOME KINGDOM ABOVE
HERE on this side Of the grave
Here we should labor and love
So many Gods, so many creeds.
So many paths that wind and wind.
While Just the art Of being kind
It's all the sad world needs

WRITTEN FOR THE GEORGIAN
By REV. DIR. JOHN E. WHITE
Pastor Second Baptist Church

II 1t is a fundamental right
eousness that human beings
should submit TO the regulation
of sex relations, then it is spirit
ual outlawry. a flaunt 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 :
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 fiout 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 well. but so a little
further and interpret It.
With the female consciousness
aroused to the point Of new and
justihable assertion. the
double standard in morals IS a
direct provocation of immodosty
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.
This 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.
II should at least indicate that
men must know human nature
we'll enough to understand that
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 win 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.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-07-14

VUyHEN Mr.. Bryan and the
M 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
tanning in some way a condem-
nation of personal vice and OF
keeping its 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 SUI
perior sex.
It 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 ac-
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
rightness, the demand of truth,
the integrity of moral law is also
boring its way to the quick of
woman's conscience.
