ways of morality. but not in the ways
OF thrift.
Two men met on the street car in
Western city one morning recently,
and one asked the other how he in
tended to give his boy start in life.
The father answered that he and
the boys mother were going to see
that their son received an education,
that his health remained good, that
he attended church and made the prop
er kind Of friends.
But" he was asked, chow are you
going to teach your boy thrift and
the value of money!"
The father had given the subject
no thought. but said that with the
equipment the boy would have az 4
result Of his education and good as
socIations. he ought to be successful,
and that he himself was carrying life
insurance.
His friend approved. But" said he,
what practical lessons In thrift are
you giving him. so that no, in turn,
will be able to take care OF 4 family?
How are you teaching him tho value
of money! Above everything else
teach him carly tho dement's to be de-
rived from saving and from earning
money himself. He will thank you for

the persistency with which an element OF
public opinion in Georgia held to a convic-
ton OF Franks guilt-despite the inadequate
testtmony--was due to the widely dissent
mated charge that camorra of the mans
coreligionists was endeavoring to effect his
acquittal. This statement may or may not
have had basis of fact, but 1t was spread
all over the country, taking various and Oft
times ridiculous forms and directions. In
Georgia it made that rather stiff-necked peo-
pie cling more firmly to their original opinion.
AT any rate. II the men who have trampled
on justice are to be punished, II tho blot 10 to
be washed from the fair name OF the State,
Georgia must do the work. Outsiders can
not help, and they may mar.
There is plenty Of determination within
the State AS the Atlanta Journal says. the
lynchers must be dealt with according to the
soberest and sternest and speediest processes
Of the law; otherwise we had as we'll confess
there is no virtue in our institutions" That
is the spirit In which what Is best in Georgias
citizenship approaches this difficult and dam
gerous. but vitality necessary, task. We have
faith that it will suffice.

However not all fathers have such
foresighted friends. Thus. teaching
children thrift is one essential thing
In our education that should be taken.
up in our schools.
The lessons Of thrift. like other les
sons, are best learned when young,
when the mind is receptive. The Ger
mans understand this, and out OF their
necessity at the present time, they are
teaching the children in their schools
how to cope with the necessity of the
future. They are being taught scien-
tihcally how and what to eat; to eat
meat substitutes which are easier to
get and cheaper; to masticate the food
thoroughly, because when one chews
food thoroughly. less is required; not
to eat between meals and in every
way to practice thrift. The other coun-
tries at war are doing much the same
thing.
Thrift Is a necessity In times OF war
which only goes to show its advantage
In times Of peace. But. above all things
else. let us remember that If we would
have the nation Of tomorrow thrifty
we must teach thrift to the child of
to-day,

Serious Trouble Ahead

I seems wholly probable that within a few
l weeks Count Won Bernstorfr will have been
handed his passports and Ambassador Gerard
recalled from Berlin. Only a complete re-
treat on the part of the German government
from positions heretofore defantly occupied
can prevent this outcome Of the latest horror
of the seas.
For OF course, the sinking OF the Arabic
was horror-an atrocity worthy OF the In
dian savage and disgraceful to civilized man.
The world has become hardened since the
CORY crime OF the Lusitania, with it's bestial
destruction Of more than thousand lives
but the Arabic's victims we're sacrificed to
the same "frlghtfulness."
1t ought to be remembered also, as on the
earlier occasion The Times Dispatch was at
pains to point out, that the atrocity was
neither increased nor diminished by the pres
ence aboard the liner of American citizens
1nfamy resides then as now, in the murder of
noncombatant men, women and children
without warning and without opportunity to
escape. That the victims include Americans
merely imposes on this government the i'm
perative duty and obligation to hold Ger
many to "a strict accountability"
Although there is an influential party in
Berlin. headed by Tirpitz and Reventiow, who
profess to welcome rupture Of peaceful re-
lations with this country and scon at the
possibility of the United States rendering val
VA BILE service TO the allied cause, II is diff
icult to believe that the responsible heads of
the German government want war. 1t is
certain that with the exception OF Colonel
Roosevelt and few jingoes and Anglo
maniacs. nobody in this country wants war
with Germany. 1t Is just as certain, however,
that unless German ofticialdom suffers an i'm
mediate and sweeping change of heart the
old friendship will be ended
President Wilson, assuredly will not re-
treat from the firm position he has occupied
nor abste the demands he has made and
that Germany has fouted. II it be possible,
he will preserve the peace, but az matters
stand that task appears hopeless.

SONGS AND SAWS
For Otherr-Not Hi

For OthePs--Not Himself.
There was a man who'd framed a plan
To cure the world Of growing.
Who'd prowled around until he found
The reason for it's bowling.
He held with CLEO the theory
That all gloom is contagious,
And when gloom's head emerged, he lied
His manners were outrageous
Woe Is germ, that makes you squirr,"
He'd say to all who'd listen,
Flee from It's sight, by day night.
To where the white lights glisten.
There laugh away till dawn of day,
Forget the griefs that bore you.
And you will find woe left behind,
While real joys hover oer you"
This jovial chap met sad mishap,
For SORROWS grew around him:
He lost his purse and-what was worse
spell Of illness found him.
Ho tried his plan for making man
Immune to melancholy;
1t would not do. so he owned, too.
The whole darned scheme was folly.
