GODS RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
 WA R,

By Edward S. Brown; the Macmillan
 company, publisher, New York city
 Gods Responsibility for the War;" by Edward s. Brown, is put up in a small package, but it contains large ideas and vast food for thought
 The character of khis little book Is well shown by the titles of the chap ters into which it is divided:
 I. God Before the Judgment Seat If Humanity; IT. Why Does God, the Father Almighty, Allow Evil?; III. Is God Limited w. Power Through Limitation; V. True Omnipotence
 Here are frankly met and ably dis cussed some of the great questions which are perplexing the sincere Christian of today as he reviews the terrible wreckage and human suffer- ing of the past four years.

THE LAUGHING WILLOW" By Oliver Herford. George H. Doran

retailer does now and then. The re
tail grocer is the man aimed at in
the cost OF living, and he catches the
brunt OF the abuse.
We have many good man who has
already figured closely and is DOING
business on the smallest possible
scale. 1t costs the retailer twice as
much to do busineks as 1t does in
all other lines, and this ought to be
taken into account
The New York Commercial takes
his side OF the argument in these
timely words:
"A very large percentage OF
them 1.-THE retailers) have been
doing business during the war
period under the greatest handi-
caps, and have been obliged to
use far greater amount of CAPT
tai in order to earn living than
the average person has realized.
An article that costs the retailer
ST.. for example, and which he
sells at $110, being an advance
of 10 cents on the purchase price,
represents profit of 10 percent.
But that article Is now apt to
cost him 50, and If he sells it at
an advance of only 10 cents he
is making a profit Of only per-
cent on the capital involved. But
he is still entitled to make his 10
percent and, therefore, should be
allowed to sell the article at 1920.
The person who buys this article
from him is. of course, paying
double the normal price, which ex-
presses the depreciation of the
dollar to 50 percent of its former
valuation. Hut the things which
the retailer must himself buy
have also doubled in price, so
that whereas Decent profit
would suffice in forwer times, he
must now collect 20 cents. HIS is
as much entitled to have his in
come doubled as is the laborer
or the farmer. His cost of doing
business has been doubled so that
if he were held down to a. profit
of 10 cents instead of 10 percent
he would be doing business at
loss"

WHERE THEY QUIT COTTON.

Moultrie Observer:
Lowndes county comes near fur
nishing an example of a county in the
cotton belt turning entirely from cot
ton growing since the arrival of the
boil weevil
For more than half century Val
dosta has been one of the leading cot
ton markets of the state, and has
boosted of being the largest inland
market for sea island cotton in the
whole, country For many years cot
ton buying has interested Valdosta
business men and some large for
tunes have been made and lost there
through cotton speculation. Now the
cotton business has disappeared en-
tirely from Valdosta. A news dispatch
from there says that there are no
bidders for the few bales of upland
cotton going there. The cotton men
Of Valdosta have been dealers in sea
island or long staple, and this has
been completely wiped out by the
t0l weevil. When they ceased to
grow the long staple, the Valdosta
buyers sought other lines of business
cot knowing the upland cotton game.
Lowndes county will not lose by
turning from cotton, nor will Valdos-
tt suffer. When farmers begin diver
styling crops and raising live stock
ihey begin to prosper, and the Lown-
des county farmers will have more
Ioney, probably, than they had years
4 80 under the all-cotton system. And
Naldosta will not suffer. Instead of
having good business through the cot
.ton season, trade will be distributed
throughout the year and there will
e money and prosperity all the time.
At least this is the case in COiquitl
county and in Moultrie The cotton
crop plays no such part in the bust.
ness OF the county now as it played
five or ten years ago, though we still
make a lot of cotton and Moultrie is a
splendid cotton market.

emphasize the essentials Of life and
not to quarrel about the non-essen-
tials.
I'm the kindergarten the children
learn in very practical and effec-
tive way, although they probably
could not state it in so many words,
that the chain is only as strong as the
weakest link. If Tommy is disobedi-
emit and pulls Sally's hair, then the
harmnoy the circle is suddenly brck
en-. The other children are quick to
appreciate this and when the next
one is called upon to select a part
ner for game, you may be sure Tom
my is not exclusion, and it does not
take him long TO put cause and effect
together In the future he will think
twice before pulling Sally's hair!
Treatment such as this proves far
more effective than the kind usually
administered by an older person.
Most children are born with a keen
sense of justice, and do not protest
at having to suffer the just conse-
auences of their wrong-doing, espec-
cially when melted out to them by a
tribunal of their peers. This suggests
that 1t is often wise plan to keep
hands off and let the boys and girls
adjust their own differences. This
helps to promote good team spirit.
When the children leave kinder
garten it is most important to foster
their love of playing and working to-
gether in groups. We know of no bet
ter organizations for the purpose than
the Boy Scouts and the Girl Scouts.
The former takes boys at IL and over
and the latter starts with girls of 10
The Girls Scouts also have an or
ganization known as Browning which
looks after little girls from to 10.
The Scouts motto. BE Prepared"
is a great incentive to boys and girls
alike to get together. To make the
troop strong each boy and girl must
develop strength TO character, for we
cannot have any weak links in the
chain. With an efficient captain in
charge to hold aloft a high ideal of
servise there are no limits which
the Scouts may not attain.
1T will be fortunate day for this
country when there are kindergar-
tens and Scout troops in every city
and village of the land. These and
kindred organizations will help to
unite children in all walks of life.
They will instill principles Of free
dom and justice and, above all, will
inspire, Through work and play q
spirit of comradeship which is in
dispensable to the welfare of great
democracy.
