STUDY THE TRUANT
By H. Addington Bruce

" RUANCY is not the simple, easily
solved problem that most people seem
- to think it. 1t is by no means always
If it is ever-a sign of Inmate depravity'
on the part of the boy girl who per-
sists in evading attendance at school.
Sometimes it is a symptom of mental de-
feet, perhaps extensive or perhaps only slight,
and readily compensated if correct training
methods are adopted early.
In such case it is not depravity, but self
preservation, that underlies the truancy. Be-
cause the mind is too weak to cope with the
tasks of the schooroom, the child stays away
from the school in order to husband his fee
BILE resources.
Or it may be timidity that prompts to tru-
ancy.
If an abnormally sensitive child-that is, a
neurotic child-becomes for any reason I'M
popular with teacher or playmates if that
child is ridiculed and picked on" truancy
may be adopted as the easier way out of a
distressing situation.
Then, too truancy may simply be indica-
tive of the unfitness of the school for the
particular needs of the child who plays tru-
ant.
Many children, for example, are of a me-
chanical rather than intellectual trend. They
learn through their fingers more easily than
through their eyes, and manual study is &C.
cordingly more congenial to them than book
study.
If such children obliged to study books
exclusively predominantly, school may
soon become SO hateful to them that they
will risk any penalty for non-attendance 1t
is not "depravity' that impels them to do
this. They are acting in self-defense as truly
as the Weak-minded truants or the abnormal
ly sensitive.
Truancy, again, may be nothing more than
manifestation Of the craving for excitement
and adventure possessed by every healthy
child. If the school work is made oppres-
s1Vely dull-as it too often is--the ultra-ad-
venturous may rebel by resort to truancy. But
they should not on this account be deemed
'depraved"
Finally, truancy is occasionally an out
growth-as serious delinquency is now
known to be at times-of profound moral
and emotional conflicts in the depths of the
truants mind.
Suppose child has acquired bad habit
one that creates mixed sentiments of fear
and shame. And until he or she is in tur-
moil of apprehension.
Then condition of Observation-Disclosures
Observation-Disclosures may result. Concen-
tration, clear thinking, being impossible,
school becomes a place Of torture and flight
from school the natural thing.
Every truant boy or girl, to put the case
| concisely, presents an individual problem to
be solved only by patient, intensive study
And to deal with truancy by the hit-or-
miss method of compulsory attendance NAV
! mean nothing less than to insure for the
| truant the misery of a needlessly ineffective
life.

EDITORIAL ECHOES

According to special dispatch from Wash
lngton, the governments campaign to reduce
the cost of living is about to end. The gov
ernment's fight on high prices has been much
like the historic episode of marching an army
up the hill and marching it down again. The
march of the army made no impression upon
the enemy, and the governments march
against high prices certainly has made no i'm
preston on the cost of living. While this
government campaign has been on, prices of
food and all other necessary CONNIE ODDITIES have
continued to mount to new high levels. We
have had, from time to time, reports tending
to show lower wholesale prices, but the prices
consumers have advanced with undated
enthusiasm. The campaign is to be brought
to an end, 1T is said, because of lack of funds
and to avoid a charge Of extravaganza. 1t
might well be brought to an end an expert
ment that has failed. It undoubtedly has
cost lot of money.
The fact is that the government undertook
to do something it was not capable Of per-
forming. The government had got into the
habit Of welding war powers and it had an
idea that possibly the mere threat of govern
ment control would send the cost of living
downward OF course, explanations for the
failure Of the campaign are forthcoming. The
Democrats blame it on the Republicans who
refuse to carry out President Wilson's lesisla-
tive program. The Republicans term it an
impractical Democratic effort But what
ever be the merits in these explanations, it
has been demonstrated that in time Of peace,
under existing laws, there is no government
method to control arbitrarily the cost Of liv-
ing. Government edicts and departmental
threats cannot of themselves change the eco
nomic conditions responsible for prices. What
is required is a world engaged in production,
and until the world becomes so engaged, there
will be no real check on high prices. - St.
Louis Star Gnd.)

WHY TORNADOESo
BY DR.. Frank Crane

BY Dr.. Frank Crane
| Why a tornado?
| The west some days ago was visited by
| one OF those terrific wind-storms that come
| in the spring to this region.
| In the vicinity of Chicago over hundred
| lives were lost, many people were mutilated
; and millions of dollars worth of property
destroyed.
| Why?
Useless as it may appear, the mind of
man persists in probing for some ration al
| purpose in the universe.

represented the impatient reaction of the
childish mind the petulant conclusion of
pessimism, that God is Indifferent
The Three Friends "Job's Comforters,"
were the fathers of all them that think in
uniform. Theirs was the cheap and easy ex-
PLANTATION: "This woe has come upon you
because you sinned.''
In spite of it's utter absurdity, in spite of
the fact that the righteous, kind and low
ing suffer vastly more than the selfish and
vicious, the majority of mankind still follow
| the view of the three SNUG Comforters.
1t was Job himself that had the vision
He glimpsed the solution.
1t was, that the moral thing in the universe
| is Man. Events are not just. Nature is pitt
| less, "red in tooth and claw" The worlds
Neros live in golden houses; the worlds
| Christs are "men of sorrows and acquainted
| with grief"
| And Man has faith, he believes in the
eventual justice, he insists that the Creator
: is good, not because this is proved by events,
but because it is contradicted by events.
Morality in man is his eternal protest
His faith is the eternal triumph of his
moral nature.
His highest spiritual peak is not the ban
quet table, it is Calvary
He is moral, not when he says, II believe,
because all is we'll, and I am prosperous"
He is moral only when he cries, Though
He STAY me, yet will I trust Him.
Not in the sun nor the sea, not in the laws
| of Nature, nor the train of events, but in the
| soul of man, and there alone, is the undying
| fire.

Georgta ProductiVeNess

LONE idea of Georgias present produc-
tive power may be gathered from
~ the fact that the value of her princi-
pal harvests last year amounted to SIX hun
dred and thirteen million dollars, great
portion of which was derived from food
stuffs. Seventy million bushels OF corn
worth one hundred and eleven million, eight
hundred and twenty-four thousand dollars,
thirteen million bushels of sweet potatoes at
more than a dollar bushel, upwards of one
and a half million bushels of Irish potatoes
at more than two dollars bushel, five mil
lion bushels of peanuts at two dollars ana
forty-six cents bushel, and five hundred
thousand gallons of sorghum at something
over dollar gallon, serve to illustrate the
diversity and abundance of the States food
growing resources. To these representative
crops add five million head of live stock
worth in the neighborhood or a quarter OF a
billion dollars, and it is plain that In TINS
Commonwealth we have one OF the eartn
richest horns of plenty.
put while Georgia now ranks fourth among
the States in agricultural production, her de-
yelopment is still in it's preparatory stages,
improved methods of farming nave come DuI
recently into anything like general pract1ce'
IT is hardly above decade since u!Versi-
fication appealed to more than smau NIL
noritv oP nIanters and the counsels or agrl-
cultural science found extensive FAVOR II Is
hardly more than five years since the 1Io"
of Georgia millions to far off markets 1oI
the purchase of foodstuffs began TO epD anu
the independence made possible Dy the preah-
ing of cotton's tyranny set in.
Well may we look forward with high hearts
+o The time when these newly inaugurated
forces of development and progress come
fully into effect. 1t will be DAY OF pro
ducfiveness beside which present bountles
Iii 1oolr lean. The natural treasure is here
in marvellous plenty; it remains only for en-
argv and skill to bring it duly forth.

the latter was severely wounded, and at the
close of the war returning to the Yopp estate,
as faithful as at the beginning.
But Bills adventures were in no wise ended.
In 1870, times being particularly hard on the
farm, he secured place as bellboy at the
Brown House in Macon, then hostelry in
high favor for political hob-nobbing. There
he made the acquaintance of the States lead
ing public men of the day, nearly all of whom
became his friends. Through a sudden turn
of fortune he was taken to New York City,
and then to California. Returning to the
East he got into the graces of certain lovers
of the Old South who sent him on an extended
trip to Europe. Some years later he pro-
cured a place on a navy collier and sailed
around the world. Next he found the way
to veritable elysium as porter on the pri-
yate car of the president of the Delaware and
Hudson railway. At last gray with years,
Bill came back to the old plantation, to find
CAPTAIN Yopp ready to depart for the Con-
federate Soldiers Home.
Thencefoward this fidus Achates was
FREQUENT visitor at the Home, and many were
the presents he brought not only to his mas
ter" but to the other veterans. The captain
has crossed over the river, but Bill still visits
his old Confederate comrades and Is thou
sand times welcome. In the sketch pepared
nv President Lawrence of the Homes trus-
tees, the events and relationships we have
touched upon are developed with singular
Charm and truth of stroke. AS picture OF
the old-time South and of an old-time darkey
who has had adventures the like OF which
ULYSSES himself never knew, the story Will
he valued the country over, both for its edu-
cational worth and it's rare human Interest.

OUIPS AND QUIDITIES

The motor car driven by determined-look-
ing woman had knocked a man down, without
however, injuring him much.
She did not try to get away Not she!
Instead, she stopped the car, descended to the
solid earth and faced him manfully, or rather
womanfully.
"Im sorry it happened" she said, grudgingly
"but it was all your fault. You must have been
walking careleSSly. l I'm an experienced driver.
Eve been driving car for seven years"
"Wel," replied her victim arily. "I'm not
a novice myself. rve been walking for fifty
seven years!'

"How little is known about Co.
rea,'" Rev. J. A. Duncan is quoted as
saying. Mr.. Duncan, has been a
missionary in that country for ten
years. He remarked that Corea was
still a progressive nation. I saw re-
Gently some reference to the fact
that Corea used iron-clads against
the Japanese as early as 1897, and
that he Coreans were the first to use
cast metal type. Nothing has been
said about it, and perhaps it is not
generally known, that the Coreans
discovered gunpowder in 200 B. c.,
fourteen centuries before the Ger
man monk, who is ordinarily cred
tied with the discovery, gave out his
formula. The astronomers of Silla,
one of the ancient provinces of Co.
rea, thought out the operations of
the planetary system and it's work
ings to such an extent that they were
able to predict eclipses with GER
tainty centuries before present day
scientists gave credit for these dis
coveries, and it was this same peo-
pie that gave the world the mag
netic needle and the mariners COM
pass.
