XNHOM the Lord loveth, He chast-
" eneth," is a Scripture from
which the Interchurch World Move
ment should draw some comfort just
now. 1t is being chastened. Let us
hope that the Christening is of the
Lord. But even at that, it is an or

thereby"
If the medicine works thus on the
Interchurch, the great movement for
a unified and cooperative church IN
America may live to thank God for
its critics.
1t must be admitted that the Inter
church was due little Christening
1t was too much of plunger. 1t
spent money too recklessly, and it
was not sufficiently harnessed to
church control.

discover that there was some excuse
for all of this. The movement was
new. 1t had a big task, and the time
was all too short. Money was spent

LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE

Editor Times-Recorder, Americas
Georgia: Shall Georgia continu
throwing away annually $95, 228,850
more than the value of the output
of oil in the State of Texas?
Is it wise for the State to waste
each year power worth twenty-eight
times the total tax receipts OF the
State in 1918?
The amendments to the Constitu-
ton proposed by, the Municipal
League of Georgia to enable the
State to stop this waste, hasten the
development of Georgia's undevel-
oped waterpowers and put electric
light and power in reach of all of
our people at reasonable rates were
introduced in the Senate and House
Friday and Saturday of last week.
The Senate bills were introdu ed by
Senators Claude c. Pittman, of the
Forty-second District; z. I. Rabun,
of the Ninth district; Josiah Blasln-
game, of the Twenty-seventh district;
W. P. Wallace, of the Twenty-elghth
district; ]. 7. Duncan, of the Thirty
sixth district; J. Q. Smith, OF the
Seventh district; H. II. Elders, OF the
Second district; W. H. Doris, oil

B. Williams, of Worth county; A. 8

Stewart, of Atkinson county; j. C.l
Hollingsworth, of Screven county,
and J. B. Jackson, of Jones coun-
ty. Copies of the bills are herewith
enclosed. 49,. !
The purpose of one OF the bills isl
to authorize the Legislature toI
create "Hydro-Electric Power
Commission" such as the one which
has made such a wonderful success
in developing the water powers of!
the Province of Ontario, which state
with fewer inhabitants than Geor-
gia now enjoys developed water pow

ers which were supplying 100000
horsepower to the people, when all
Georgia had only 100000 horse
power developed, The companion
bill will enable the municipalities to
finance their public utilities and deal
with the private corporations on an
equal footing.
At present, the private corpora
ton engaged in handling public utili-
ties have the power to condemn pri-
vate property and borrow unlimited
sums of money necessary to handle
their business, but the State and the
municipalities are helpless to act
without action on the part of the
Legislature.
You will appreciate the meaning
of the legislation to the State when
you recall that Georgia has in her
streams 2,152,850 undeveloped horse
power. This is equivalent to 21,-
522,850 tons of coal.
At the present price of coal, this
undeveloped waterway is worth
$215, 228,850 per annum, or $685.
228,850 more than the value of
$120, 100000 placed upon the annual
output of oil in the great State of
Texas. With the price Of coal
mounting every day, something must
be done for the relief of our people,
but if this were not true, it would be
ineXcusable to continue this annual
waste. The private corporations Of
fer no hope. They appeal annually
for an increase in rates, which are

LONDONDERRY

THE National Geographic Society
has issued from its Washington
D. c., headquarters, the following
bulletin about Londonderry, Ireland ::
Derry, or Londonderry, in Ulster,
known in song and legend as the
Maiden City of Ireland, has the
charm of the CHEEKY, busy town and
is truly characterized by the stirring
marching song which these Irish
sing on their days of celebration:
Where Foyle his swelling waters
rolls northward to the main,
Here, Queen of Erin's daughters,
fair Derry fixed her reign;
A holy temple crowned her, and
commerce graced her street
A rampant wall was round her, the
river at her feet;'
These four lines briefly tell Lon
.donderry's story, Along the two
mile quays of the river Irishmen jol-
ly each other as they load and un-
load the foreign, colonial and coast
ing trade of the docking vessels. For
the Foyle is wide and deep, and
large tonnage ships sailing the flags
of France, Australia, Brazil, the
United States and India bring their
wares to her port. Busy looms in
the city make linen, and then laugh
ing, twinkly-eyed Irish girls make
the linen into shirts before it leaves
Londonderry. The salmon fishery on
the toyle is important and the town
has timber mills, foundries, grain
mills and ship yards.
But Derry has for the traveller
la charm greater than it's hustle and
up-and-doing atmosphere-the story
of past replete with romance, de-
votion to principle, and the exhibi-
ton of an indomitable spirit. Col
umba, the greatest of the Irish saints
after Patrick and Brigdid, in SAG
looked on the oak-clad hills and
coveted them. Here he founded his
abbey, known as Daire- Columbkille
or Columba's Oak Grove, within the
shadow of the great fort on neigh
boring hill, the stronghold of the
Lord of Tyrone, in order that his
sanctuary might have the protection
of the fort But in vain did he
reckon his chances against the Danes
and Saxons who, time and again,
pushed their boats against his shores.
Despite their plundering and burn

THE INTERCHURCH AND IT'S CRITICS
By DR.. James |. Vance

obtained, the criticism would change
to cheers.
The mistakes the Interchurch
made were in the direction of trying
to do something. 1t was the sublimest,
most daring, most audacious attempt
men have made to take Christ liter
ally at His word and translate His
program into deeds. One wonders
whether it is blame or praise that
tails from His lips.
Even the critics of the Interchurch
have no criticism for the great idea
of cooperation around which the
movement has been built. The
churches are absolutely unanimous in
their approval of the idea. We must
do teamwork. Sectarian selfishness
and denominational friction must
cease. The idea is sublime, 1t is di-
vine. 1t must go on.
The critics were needed, and the
chastisement administered through
them will prove blessing. Already
the Interchurch Movement is being
reorganized on a conservative basis.
The stream is flowing in the right di-
rection. 1t merely got cut of its
banks for while. But you cannot
down it's waters, for this stream of a
unified and cooperating church is the
river of God.

lngs, the settlement, of which he had
made the nucleus, grew and main
tanned its independence against even
the English until 1909
Derry was then given to the Cor
poration of London, which tackled on
the prefix London. Three years la
ter the Irish Society, to which Lon
donderry and much of the surround
ing country had been given, pledged
itself to enclose Derry within walls,
and these walls, wide enough for a
coach and four, are excellently pre-
served today, perhaps to the incon-
venience of the inhabitants, but GER
tainly in accordance with their senti
ment and wishes. Any one who ex-
pressed a desire that they be taken
down would be treated as a traitor.
Long ago they grew too small to-
encompass all the inhabitants of the
hustling port, but they stand like a.
stiff belt around the waist line of
the hill on which the city is built.
The most inconyenient thing about
them is that, though they are more
than a mile in circumference, there
are only seven gates leading through
them. Because the walls defended
the city in the siege begun by James
II, busy man must make quite
jaunt out of his way to find a pas
sageway through them, but, true to
Irish sentiment, he does it without
murmur. On one of the bastions
of the wall an old gun, affectionately
known ras Roaring Meg points her
nose over the city.
Here, too, on the hill in the cen
ter of a crowded old graveyard
stands the quaint, squat cathedral
with it's queer pinnacled tower. It
is called after st. Columbia, although
it is not on the site of the old abbey
built by the saint fourteen centuries
age
Though every trace of the old
castle has been obliterated, the mass
i've stone wall fourteen feet thick
and eighteen feet high, resembling
the handiwork of a cyclops, has
stood out grimly against the CEN
turies. A small iron gate hangs
across a two-foot doorway, the only
entrance to its huge amphitheater-
like interior, which reveals further
devices designed for the protection
of the inmates.

Calls on Miss Canada,

Emil johnson returned the first of

county n. d.. where he has some
farm properties that he was lokiny
after. Pembina is on the Canadian
border and Emil stepped across the
line to see how it would seem to De
in the kings territory and incidently
to look after some land he has there
under the union jack. He states
that the water on the Canadian side
is very bad, but the Canadians have
invented substitute, which if taken
with moderation and in small doses
between long intervals. has q very
eNhilerating effect However. thirsty
man from Dakota should be very
careful not to exceed the speed limit
in gargling his throat with this Ca
madam concoction, the receipt for
which it is said was stolen from the
Scotch. Emil says some Of his Cana
dian friends prevailed upon him to
taste the stuff, and he says the flavor
was like something he had swallowed
many years ago when he was a young
man. and that he likely would have
brought some Of it home with him if
he had not been deferred by the Gus
tom house officers, who appeared de-
termined to keep the liquid on the
other side. He says he would like to
have brought sample to see if anv
of his friends could figure out what it
was.
