THE MILDLY INSANE.

A committee appointed by the Georgia
general assembly is making an investigation
with a view of the state ultimately provid-
ing for the treatment and training of its
feeble minded citizens. It's we'll enough to
do something for these unfortunate ones
among us, and the people of the state will
endorse the movement in their behalf.
In keeping with the humanitarian policy
of the present time the people of Georgia
could go further and provide psychopath-
ic hospital for the care of mild cases of in
sanity which have not reached and in all
probability will not reach the violent stage.
The victims are committed without public
examinations and official records, much as
physicians advise patients to go to hospital
for treatment. The patients who are victims
of overwork, worry or other temporary caus-
es do not have the record of insanity tied
forever to their names
The treatment for such patients is largely
rest and change of environment. Cheerful
surroundings take the mind away from the
original cause of the mental slip, and in
few weeks the person returns home entire
ly restored, and without the humiliation OF
facing an insanity record.

ELIXIRS OF LONELINESS.

Women are more beautiful than men; in
deed, the name of the male sex is hardly
ever associated with the word beauty. But
we are fully convinced that the use of arti-
fetal aids to beauty really accomplishes lit
tie or nothing in the way of increasing their
natural charm.
It is difficult to surpass what nature has
established. Sweet sleep, wholesome food
pleasant thoughts and employment sun
shine, fresh air and outdoor activities are
of more worth than all the cosmetics, beau
ty givers and charm bestowers in the world,
The daughters Of Eve who would be fair,
and most of them would, be it said to their
credit, should turn to these as the true elk
irs of loneliness.

ROAD IMPROVEMENT.

A large number of Georgia counties have
voted for bonds for highway improvement.
Among these counties are the adjoining ones
of Sumter and Dougherty, and Tiff, Doc
" and Worth, near neighbors. The greatest
honor any county can take for itself in the
future history of the state will be the fact
that it was the first, or among the first, to
adopt the modern system of building pub
lie highways.
On June 18th Terrell county will decide
whether she will join in road Improvement
under the new plan, that date having been
set by the local authorities for voting on
a proposed bond issue. Terrell coun-
ty land is as valuable as any in the world
for strictly farm purposes There are places
near the large cities where acreage used
for garden truck or fruit growing is more
expensive, but in no other county or in no
other state is land used exclusively for
growing standard crops and sustaining stand
ard live stock industries worth more. Terrell
farms are too valuable and too expensive to
be fanked with roads next to impossible
much of the time, over which the products
of these farms must be marketed. The man
in the city who erects costly business
structure but who resists the construction
of sidewalk along it and a paved street in
front of it would be accounted insane. He
would destroy the value Of its own products
because it cost something to have the i'm
provements. The increased business they
would bring and the extent to which the i'm
provements would enhance the value of his
property would be ignored. In time the far
mers will come to view the building Of good
roads in the same way. They will realize
that the extra cost is annually saved in the
reduced cost of marketing their products.
Once the first cost is saved in this way the
value of the farm increases because of the
cheaper marketing facilities. If the land is
not on the market the owner has the same
advantage in the saving which permanent
roads would be to buyer

BY groups the Methodist Episcopal, the
largest organization of that distinctive faith,
with upwards of 100000 members, had
net loss in 1918 of 10000 against a net
gain the previous year of 125, 900. The Bap-
fist group had gain of 1857 in total
membership of 7.25O,00O. The Lutherans
gained 1921 and the Presbyterians 1921,
both small figures when compared with the
number of communicates. The Protestant
Episcopal church, which makes a steady
and seldom interrupted growth, had a net
loss of approximately II 900. The Catholic
church shows reduced gains of considerably
less than 100000 on a membership of A.
891,321.
The cause for this decline in membership
might be traced tc many sources. The pub
lie mind has been on war more than on
church development. Large numbers of mil
liant ministers focsook their pulpits to en-
gage in army service, either as chaplains or
as workers in the Red Cross, the Y. M. c. A,
the K c., the Salvation Army and other
like activities. The reduction of church men,
bership by death among the soldiers was
heavy, more than $4,000 members dying IN
the environments in this country and Europe.
The epidemic of influenza closed the
churches for a month on an average, while
the prevalence of the disease prevented any
attempts at revivals and special efforts to
build up membership. The increase in mem
bership in 1917 was nearly twice as large
in 1916, and this may have left a smaller
available number of people from which to
draw the increase for 1918.
The total membership in the United States
is placed by DIR. Carroll at Al ,565, 9O8, gath
cred in 230,685 individual churches and
congregations and served by 1876, 2Ss minis
tiers.

No where in the world today will there be
found so many confirmed drunkards as
there were among the Tracians, the Ibe-
rians, the Celts or the Scythians. The man
who didn't get drunk every day or two was
regarded as queer. eat, drink and amuse
yourself. All else is vanity" said Sardanapa-
lus, the last king of the Assyrians, and those
words were written for his tomb The an
clients were so fond of drink that their most
popular god was Bacchus. The antiquity OF
drunkenness is not known, but one of the
most ancient accounts of spree is that OF
Lot, which is told in the book of Genesis.
The Persians, whose history dates as far
back as any, were famous drunkards in the
old days. The Greeks were moderate drink
ers until they began to copy the luxury OF
the Persian feasts. The Romans initiated
the Greeks. Then the whole world went on
a mad drunk. 1t was saturnalia. Hippo
crates upheld drinking and earnestly coun-
seled people to drown their sorrows in wine.
"When shall we live if not now?" was the
giddy advice of Seneca.

CHURCH MEMBERSHIP AND WAR

Rev. DR. H. K. Carroll, the eminent relig-

interesting set of figures showing the effect
of war upon ITO denominations and sects
in the United States. The figures are inter
esting in that they show that while the larg-
er gains in the ten-year period from 1908
to 1918 were made in 1917 by far the small
est gains in the period were made in 1918
The figures in total for the several denomi-
nations for the entire period follow:

The adverse weather conditions which
prevailed for three weeks not only had de-
pressing effect on the farms. but on trade
and industry also, especially in the smaller
centers, where the size of the crop is the
criterion of prosperity. The danger was not
as serious, however, as it might have been,
and favorable weather conditions the next
few weeks will offset all the damage which
was done
