BOUNDING HARRY THAW.

Editor The Georgian:
The attitude of your paper as
to the bounding of Harry K.
Thaw Is commendable, per Sc. 1t
is the attitude of every red blood
ed American.
Harry Thaw was a degenerate,
concededly. But when he married
a girl and tried to shield her
name, and Stanford White.
metropolitan genius, forgot his
high education, his high standing
as a cultured, professional man,
and assumed the role of a banal
poltroon and publicly tried to
smirch the girl, Harry Thaw did
just as any sound American would
do, and punished such a miserable
rag.
The high rating of Stanford
White only intensified his actions.
How can w. Travers Jerome look
upon his acts in hounding-the
word bounding" seems simple
text-Thaw for Furnishing such
man, however exalted his talents?

There's No Reason Why {
Woman Should Give
Up a Good Job.

It's an Anticipated idea that
doesn't fit into our scheme of
modern life, and the sooner we
realize 1t the better.
There's no reason why a wom-
an who has got a good job should
give 1t up when she marries any
more than there is why a man
should.
Nor Is there any sensible argu-
ment against a wife, who must
help her husband. helping him in
the way that is most agreeable to
her.
There's been a great falling off
in matrimony in this generation
because 50 many people still hold
to the idea that a wife should be
a parasite and that a man should
not marry until he is able TO sun
port such an ornamental luxury.
But there will be plenty OF mar
rying in the next generation, be-
cause every girl will be self-sup-
porting, and when a man mar
ries. instead OF acquiring a burden
to support, he will get a BUSH
ness partner who will be a real
helpmate.

SAVING A BOY WORTH WHILE

Editor The Georgian:
The. writer knows young man
who. in 1905, when only a child,
pleaded guilty to the theft Of a
small amount of jewelry from
room in a hotel in which he was
employed. He was sent to the
Children's Village at Dobbs Fer
ry, which is under the control Of
the New York Juvenile Asylum.
In that institution he spent two
years, making a record never be-
fore or since equaled. He was
tested in every way, and was at
all times found to be honest. To
the superintendent, Mr.. Guy Nor
gan, he said that he was not
guilty of the crime charged
against him, but by pettifogging
lawyer had been persuaded to
plead guilty.
Leaving the institution, he lit
orally fought his way through the
necessary schooling and into the
profession of dentistry. He now
lives in Atlanta, Ca, and is rec
ognized as one of the rising young
citizens of that city. He recently
married the daughter of a we'll
known Atlanta family. Last
Christmas he brought his bride
to New York. and at the Chill
dren's Village made an inspiring
talk to the boys now there. That
young man was worth a big in
