GEORGIA Chambions

Atlanta has been visited in her day by
champions innumerable-golf champions,
boxing champions, champions of practically
every sport, and champions in many other
lines of human endeavor. But on Tuesday
Atlanta was host to a, set of champions whose
presence in the city did us rarer honor, meas
ured by the genuine worth of their achieve
ment, than the visit of any laurel-crowned
athlete or starry genius.
There were eighty-three of them in all,
twenty-eight Georgia girls and fifty-five Geor-
gia boys, winners of the prizes offered at
county fairs last fall to the best displays in
canning and cooking, sewing and poultry rails
ing for the girls; in calf and pig culture,
wheat, potato and cotton growing for the
boys. They were returning to their homes
from Athens, where they had been given the
reward for their efforts in courses in agricul-
ture at the State College.
Champions of the hearth and home, heroes
of the farm and fireside, they merit not alone
The praise, but the sincere gratitude of their
fellow Georgians. For they are of the stuff
on which the strength of nations and the sin
ews Of people are built, the creators and
the producers of what prosperity, what prog
ress the future holds for the commonwealth.
Not alone to their fellows, but to their elders
they may well serve as shining examples of
wholesome, hearty industry. More power to
their heads, their hearts, their arms as they
go back to the scenes of their labors!

The Worlds Sugar Bowl

- REDUCTIONS that sugar prices are
likely to fall, owing to ian abundant
supply" prompts the indianapolis
News to remark: What is meant is not the
supply Of raw, nor if the refiners in their
monthly bulletins give a truthful account
of their output (and there is no reason to
believe that they do not), the supply OF re-
fined sugar, but the free supply of sugar
to the consumer; it appears that certain
men of speculative turn of mind haye de-
cided that in the face of general price ad-
iustments, now is the time to unload
Speculation no doubt has played heavy
hand in the market, much to the annoyance
of conservative dealers as well as of the
consuming rank and file. 1t is none the less
evident however, that the demand for SUI
gar has multiplied IN recent years far more
rapidly than it's production. The United
States, long known for it's indulgence in
sweets, has increased it's consumption so
greatly as to absorb almost the entire in
crement in the worlds supply since the war.
Besides the steady normal growth in the
staple needs for sugar, there has been a re-
markable expansion in the sale of confec-
tioneries, not in this country alone but in
parts of the world hitherto unused to such
luxuries. In the frugallest corners Of Eu-
rope, even among the once stinted masses
of the Orient, the demand for more sweets
has become insistent
The situation should be peculiarly interest

DREAMS AND WAKING
Bv II. Addington Bruce

VIZ HEN you dream you usually seem tc
w yourself to be in world as real az
the world of your waking hours. Fan
tastic may be its events, curious its perSonages
but at the time of dreaming you, as a rule, dc
not question its reality.
1t is only later, upon awaking, that you moi
merely question: but flatly deny the reality Of
the dream-world in which you have been NOV
ing and acting "How strangely my imagina
ton ran away with me-" is often your COM
ment.
Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps
your waking life itself is species of dreams
that after DEATH you may, have larger
waking, so to speak, in which you will look
back upon the happenings of your dreams?
Such question, you perhaps hasten to in
form me, is preposterouSly absurd an insult
to the intelligence. Yet it is today being Sc
riouSly asked by some earnest thinkers in va
rious parts of the world. ...,1.
/ In, for example, his recently published envy
self and Dreams" the English philosopher Con-
stable insists ="
at must be held to be within the bounds
of possibility that at any moment the so-termed
waking subjects may REALLY, really wake up
and, from his then transcendental state, con-
template his past life in the objective universe
as mere dream"
Not only this, but Constable AYERS that there
is evidence that this possibility is a fact OF
human experience. He cities specifically the
singular phenomenon of altering personality.
There are people, as medical science well
knows, who seem to have more than one self
Each of these SELVES" has memory for only
the facts of its individual experiences.
Self may continue dominant for weeks, OF
months, even years. Then one day self B
assumes charge To self the life of self A
is undeniably dreamlike life, for self has
no Self-conscious memory for the experiences
of self A.
And SO long as the alternating condition
persists, the life of self seems as a dream to
self B, and the life of self as dream to
self A.
Only-a fact Constable overlooks-there
demonstraby is all the while an underlying
self with complete memory for the lives OF
both A and B. So that the phenomenon of al
ternatng personality does not, after all, support
the theory of the possible unrealty of our life
here earth.
1t does suggest, however, that possibly the
themselves an unsupported reality, as viewed
by a larger self cognizant of the happenings
both of waking and of sleeping life.
And indeed, only a short time ago Hin
doc philosopher sent to me QUESTIONABLE, pro-
pounding among other queries:
"Who is it that sleeps, who is it that dreams
and whoNiS it that wakes up?
eff the personality in each state is differ
ent what becomes of the waking state per-
sonaity during dream and what of the dream
personality during the waking state?"
Vertically we are riddles to ourselves. And
mayhap it is our lot to remain riddles until we
reach the Great Beyond. Yet, gifted with the
blessing of a mind, it must ever be none the
less our duty to press ardently for a solution

4 Timely Warning

~ EORGIA people between the ages of
U n ten and forty, in particular those
living in cities, will do we'll to heed
the advice of the state board of health to
guard themselves against typhoid fever by
Immediate incubation.
Typhoid cases, states the board, are on the
increase. Seventy-three were reported to the
board during the first week of August the
high-water mark in reports that have been
steadily on the increase since early summer,
reaching a total of lit for the month of
July alone.
There is nothing in the boards statement
to cause undue alarm, only timely and need
ed warning. Too many people are prone to
be ineXcusably lax in the matter of their
own physical well-being, when few simple
and approved precautions if taken in time,
will be the means of saving them much suf-
fering and possible loss of life
August, fag-end of summer is typhoid S
own month, when the nerves have been swell
tered to tangled edge, many faces are wilted
white instead of burned red, vitality is at its
lowest ebb and the whole system is often
most susceptible to disease. 1t is no time for
anyone to take unnecessary chances.
Anti-typhoid prophylactic has been thor
oughly established a protective, not only
bv the state but by the government, winch
has used it for number Of years in the army
and navy and other departments The I'M
munity it provides is beyond question When'
added to this, is the fact that the vaccine Is
offered to everybody in the state without any
cost to them, whatever, it would seem actual
folly for anyone to forego this safeguard.
Therefore, do as the state board OF health
urges procure sufficient quantity OF the
vaccine and have your physician or the local
health officer administer it.

RELIGION OUTDOORS
Bv DR.. Frank Crane

One of the most moving plays l ever saw
was "The Sign of the Cross" which boldly
dramatized the religious sentiment. But pro-
fessional theatrical critics united with pro-
fessional church people to condemn it. Re
ligion, they said, was out of place on the
stage 1t was PROCLAMATION. It should be In
temple, set apart
This I conceive to be the acme Of wrong
medicines. The very place exactly for re-
ligion is on the stage, in the novel and in
the street. So only will the day be fastened
when holiness shall be written on the pots
and kettles and on the bells OF the horses. :"
The same outcry was made when D'Annun-
zio and De Busy produced their Saint Sc
bastian." Bishops anathemat ized it and them
and all who went to see it. And your the
atrical Journalist echoed the bishops.
The one thing the professional cannot I'm
derstand and cannot tolerate, be he profess
sional re1gionist or professional artist or pro-
fessional what-not, is that an emotion, or any
little piece of life, should be misplaced.
Hence the average arbiter of taste OF
morals has no objection to devotion Or to
vice provided it will stay where it belongs
where tradition and custom have placed it.
All this is narrow, unsound, and cheap AS
a matter of fact, religion is much more ef2
tective on the stage than in church 1t does
vastly more good in the market place than
in the pew.
The great task of this age is to unchurch

hitherto has ben to fence it in and institu-
tionalize it,
The finished product of institutionalized
religion is the Pharisee. a..

Ponz;;, Spectacular F;nanc;er

TUMAN nature hasn't changed much
- since P. T. Barnums day. The master
Snowman advanced the theory that "a
sucker is born every minute and Charles
Ponzi, years later, has proved it. i
Whatever the courts may decide in the
case of the basket millionaire" whether
he be innocent or guilty of swindling, the
fact remains that thousands of his fellow
creatures were innocent enough to trust him
without, apparently the faintest knowledge
of the means by which he was to give them
fifty per cent profit in forty-five days" The
investigators declare his claim of huge prof
its in international reply postal coupons were
mere dreams, impossible of fulfillment. If
that is their opinion after exhaustive inquiry,
what ounce Of comm dictated the
reckless faith of his followers, who had lit
tie more than promise?
Not common-sense was it, but the DID, old
desire-"something for nothing!" The greed
for gold, the will-o'-the-wisp that beckoned
the Argonauts, the lust that beat a path to
the Klondike and to California, the fever
burning in the market plunger's veins today
as it burned in the heart of Jason ten thou
sand years ago; castles in Spain, the pot at
the end Of the rainbow; the lure that comes
to all of us, from the black hand lowering
over the dice in Darktown to the frenzied
fingers gripping the tape in Wall Street.
Something for nothing" And what is
the end? A cross on the Yukon trail. a
blood-spot on the casino steps at Monte Carlo,
an aged Italian weeping in the line before
Ponzi's office. For one who captures the
Golden Fleece, thousand chase the rainbow
in vain.
That is the lesson 1t is not new. 1t is
quite obvious. But the Ponzi case teaches
again what seemingly, cannot be taught too
often: that the law of compensation seldom
fails and the best rule to follow is, "By the
sweat of his brow shall man eat bread"

Why women marry: So that when
life goes wrong some one besides
themselves may be blamed.
