professor of preventive medicine at
Harvard, in an original article just
published. Furthermore, he says that
milk is rich in calcium in readily
available form-and. that children
need five times as much calcium per
pound of body weights as adults.
"In order to supply this important
salt to growing bones and developing
teeth, as well as to furnishing vita
mines for the utilization of food"
says the article, "a child should drink
quart of milk day. 1t will not then
suffer from deficiency disease, Our
health, as well as our power to utilize
food, depends upon the daily intake
of these vitamines. Life itself is
threatened by deprivation of them

in the House of Representatives
caused by the death of Col. Mower.
Already several candidates have an
nounced for the place and the follow
ing taken from the Newberry Obser-

getting pretty lively:
ga ripple of excitement was
caused on the street Thursday af-
ternoon about six o'clock by a per-
sonal encounter between Sheriff
Cannon G. Blease and H. H. Evans,
in which Mr.. Evans struck Mr.. Blease
in. the face and Mr.. Biease attempt
ed to draw his pistol, when bystand-
ers interfered and stopped the
trouble.
"The difficulty arose over some
thing Mr.. Evans said in announcing
his candidancy for the house of rep
resentatives in the newspapers. In his
platform, published in the town pa.
pers that afternoon, he said, among
other things, IF the voters want the
fearful expense of the sheriff's of
flee, don't vote for me-
"The two men met on the street
shortly after the papers came out
and in the course of discussing the
language above quoted, the sheriff
used the short and ugly word 'lie"
with handle to it, and it was an.
swered by Mr.. Evans with blow.
Mutual friends took the matter uI
and brought about a reconciliation.

caught from the pipe, which had
been red hot. There was no insu-

Restoring a Respect for the
Law.

John A. Boykin, Solicitor General
Atlanta Judicial Circuit, in the last
issue of the Christian Index, has the
following timely and forceful appeal
for the return of a proper respect for
law. He says:
claws cannot be enforced without
an aroused moral sentiment behind
them. This applies to any law. Laws
are not invented, but grow out of
circumstances, that justify and often
times demand their enactment. 1t is
the public demand that creates laws.
1t requires a-powerful public demand
to enact any good law. If the same
force that demands and creates a law
will back it up, then it will generally
be obeyed. But if those who cause
the enactment of laws retire or rath-
er rest upon their oars and leave its
enforcement to those who are indif-
ferent, such laws will not be enforc-
ed. The friends of a law must see to
it that those who are charged with
the duty of its enforcement do not
fail to, discharge such duty.
"Neither the enemies nor those in
different to laws observance can
be relied upon to do this. The senti-
ment that creates laws must stand
behind them and hold up the hands
of those officers who fearlessly dis
charge their duty. 1t is too often true
that men who are fearless in the dis
charge of their duty are defeated
when they come up for reelection,
because the enemies Of the law or
ganize, register and vote; while those
who stand for, law and order too of
:ttn stisa Slst rsind diffsre of m any good
and well-meaning citizens to the fate
of those public officials who dare to
do their duty, and in so doing incur
the displeasure of the lawless, who,
aided and abetted by corrupt politi-
clans, often encompass their defeat.
"When public officers feel sure Of
approval and support they will re-
spond to duty more willingly. The
public conscience should so support
and uphold those public officials who
stand by the cause of good govern
ment, righteousness and law en-
forcement that they would not be
timid and afraid. The thing for the
people to do is to make it popular
for Office holders to stand on the side
of good people, law and order. 1t has
been stated that "law is the embodi-
ment of the moral sentiment of the
people" 1t naturally follows that the
greater this moral sentiment the
greater will be the observance of the
law.
"We need in this period of utter
lawlessness a rebirth of respect for
the law. The church is the moral force
that must restore this respect for the
law. When we fully realize how much
law means to the individual and to
civilization itself, and when we come
to look upon law as the great Clar-
endon did as "the standard and guard
ian of our liberty" then indeed will
W ehave that rebirth of respect for
the law that we now so sorely need
