What Fear Does to You.
BY n. AooiNcToN sRucE
tAuthor OF The Riddle Of Personality"
-Fsychosogy and Parenfhood." etc.J

Everybody knows that fear has certain imme-
diate bodily effects. IL bianches the face sets
ing Less weiEknown is the fact that these
plainly evident consequences OF minor i'm
por;ance compared with the effects Of fear on
the bodys inner workings.
Quite recently number OF scientists In the
United States. Russia and other countries have
oeen studying these inner effects. They have
done this by means of experiments on animals.
and on human beings In whom accident or dis
ease has caused openings exposing parts OF the
interior organs.
The results OF their studies have now been
summed UP by one OF the experimenters. DIR.
W. X. Cannon, OF Harvard university, In q book
that should be widely read. For il brings out
more strikingly than ever done before the
disastrous consequences OF fear upon health
One absolutely indispensable element In
keeping healthy Ii good digestion Prof. Can
mons experiments. and those Of his fellow~ork-
ers, demonstrate that good digestion Ia impos-
sible when fear Is present.
when the dogs, cats and other animals on
which they experimental were frightened. the
secretion OF gastric juice was almost entirely
stopped This happened even when the ami
mails were hungry and were eating food eagerly
Given fright the flow of gastric Juice nee
essary 10 digestion AT once diminished to the
vanishing point
The same result was found In the case OF hu-
man beings. Not only SO. but under the influ-
eace OF fear the movements OF the stomach and
OF virtually the whole alimentary tract imme-
lately ceased
Nor does this happen only when the fear -
extreme. Doubt, worry. any slight anxiety. Is
enough TO derange the digestive process. Says
DR. Cannon
In vigorous young male cat I have watched
the stomach for more than hour by means
OF the Roentgen rays. and during that time not
the slightest beginning OF peristaltc activity
appeared; yet the only visible indication of ex-
citement In the animal a continual quick
tvitching OF the tail 70 and fro. What IL true
of the cat have found true also OF the rabbit,
dog and gunsa-pig
Another highly important bodily effect of
iear discovered by the expermenters
excessive secretion OF sugar In the blood
Now, while the occasional presence Of sugar
in excess is not alarming its continual presence
means serious disease. Consequently the per.
son who habitually fumes. frets and worries IL
endangerng HIS health through the excessive
sugar secretion.
Other yisceral changes OF importance were
noted But II Is not necessary 10 go into them
here 10 enforce the warning suggested by the
effects already noted-the warning. namely
that the man who would keep III as we'll as
happy must not ALLOW fesrthoughts OF any sort
to obtain Judgement In his mind.

GeOrgia's Interest EverybOdy's

Gov. ELECT Harris. Of Georgia. in COM
menting on the thousands of petitions
which are reaching him daily, pleading
that the life of Leo Frank be spared,
states that "only Georgia's interests
shall be considered" Do you grasp the
idea? Only Georgia people vote for the
election of Georgia's governor.
To Hades with the hundreds of thou.
sands of true men and pure women who
ask. that for the sake of honor, and de-
cency, and justice, Frank be given the
benefit OF the doubt which the law prom
ises the meanest criminal. the doubt
which filed the mind of the trial judge.
which existed with the minority Of the
superior justices, the doubt which every
human being outside of Georgia, feels TO
a greater or lesser degree--a reasonable
degree.
Those people are praying that the
state of Georgia be saved from its own
people, a people gone mad with racial
hatred and thirsting for the blood Of a
victim; that through one states act, a
nation be not dishonored.
Ii Georgia's governor shall indeed act
for 'Georgia's interests" as well as for
her fair name, he can reach but one con-
ciusion.
But will he?
Is he of that measure of man who
viii. if necessary, sacrifice political future
for right?
Ii, as governor, he commutes Leo
Franks sentence, future generations OF
Georgia's sons and daughters viii rise
to call him blessed, but-the present gen.
Grafton win. quite likely. retire him to
private life
Harris declaration is sinisterly signifi-
can't.
II sounds like brazen bid for public
favor--Georgia voters favor.
