Justice to Motharhood.

Atlanta Journal: It is almost I'M
thinkable, yet pitilessIy true. that the
law of Georgia recognizes no human
or natural right of "a mother to cher
child. Our statutes in this respect
are but slightly removed from i those
of the dark and forgotten time when a
Wlte was legally regarded as the hus-
bands chattel or slave whom he might
prosecute or even kill and be account
ed justified before the courts. The
custody Of minor children, from the
day of their birth until their majority,
Is now vested in the father alone,
unless clear and strong proof can be
given of his unhtness." In issues Of
this kind the courts, to be sure are
allowed a meausre of discretion as 70
the best interests of the child but. such
provisions are merely incidental; the
whole burden and tenor of the law Is
toward the fathers special privilege
and the mothers special injustice.
