JUST A MAKESHIFT.

That the American public is in fa-
vor Of encouraging the merchant ma
rine is becoming more evident daily.
That it is not in favor of doing so
at the expense of the taxpayers is
also evident. The feeling is that our
ships should not be hampered by leg
islation and regulation which places
them at a disadvantage with foreign
lines. If our ship owners are given
equal opportunity with foreigners they
will hold their own. This policy is
the simplest and most logical one to
pursue.
The agitation to grant free tolls
through the Panama canal is just an
other means, of trying to remedy the
artificial cost of operation under
which our ships operate, without re-
moving the cause. There is no more
justification for granting our ships
free tolls through the canal than there
is for granting our farmers free ir
rigation water in government iriga-
tion pojects.
Free tolls would simply shift tbs
burden to the taxpayers instead o1
removing the causes which hamper
our ships.

MINING AND POTATOES.

Mining in the west is a good deal
like potatoes with the average meal,
it's benefits go unnoticed until we
have to do without them.
If the western potato crop had been
practically wiped out for a year due
to various causes every citizen would
be interested in seeing measures
adopted which would produce a crop
for the next season.
While we cannot eat the ore that is
mined the work of producing this ore
furnishes employment and the money
wherewith to buy potatoes.
AS the western mining industry has
been practically closed during 1920
due to adverse market conditions, the
source of employment from which the
thousands of people formerly drew
revenue to buy potatoes has, been
woped out.
AS a result every westerned should
take a deep interest in every measure
which will encourage the mining in
dustry.
Western representatives in con-
gress are favoring tariff measures
on various metals which must meet
unlimited competition.
Copper, lead, silver and gold min.
ing are the backbone of the western
industry and must be encouraged anC
protected to the fullest extend.

ed-in waists TO their coats, and slicked
back hair, racing about in high-powered
cars, full speed for destruction. God help us
all, they wall.
How different the youth of today from
the young people of our grandparents time,
these critics mourn. In those days young
people had high ideals, and were guided by
a sense of duty instead of a desire for
pleasure. They dressed sensibly and modest
ly. They conducted themselves with dig
nifty and were fitted to meet the stern re-
sponsbilities of life when they came upon
them.
So much for the good old days, as we
look back to them across the space of three
score years, but it appears that the Jere-
mahs of that day thought just as badly of
that generation Of young people and
prophesed as dire things concerning them,
as the pessimists of today do about the
present crop of youngsters. For in the old
Godey's Ladies' Book there is an impassion-
ed article drawing an insidious comparison
between the young men and women of that
day and their grandparents, and criticising
the folies of 1858 just as bitterly as any
satirist ever did the follies Of 1921.
This voice from the grave cried aloud
against the immodesty of skirts twelve yards
around the bottom and that swept the earth,

ed by the polka as we are by cheek-to-cheek
dancing. He was as much Mortified by a
lwomans wanting higher education as we
are at the thoughts of free love- He thought
our parents manners just as bad as we
think our grandchildren's are, and he
prophesied that our fathers and mothers
would never be fit to run the country, just
as we prophecy the same thing about our
children.
All of which goes to show that each gen
Grafton has held precisely the same view OF
the one that was to follow it. Age has al
ways lambasted youth, and doubted its
wisdom, and yet the world has gone on.
| Our grandparents whose virtues we now
| extoIl whose intelligence we now revere
whose achievements are our glory, were
thought by their parents TO be ill-mannered
cubs without sense or stamina, who could
come to no good end.

ture, and lead us to believe that our fears
| for our children are as unfounded as our
| great-grandparents were for theirs Other
times, other manners and, after all, as be-
| tween the knee length skirt that woman
can run a race in if she so desires, and the
hoop skirt in which she was imprisoned and
helpless, is not the advantage with the
present instead of the past?

1853.
Godey's Ladies' Book was the Vogue, the
Good Housekeeping, the Ladies' Home
Journal, the Fireside Companion, the arbiter
of styles and manners Of its day, and from
it our grandmamas not only learned how to
dress in the latest mode, but imbibed moral
maxims to, guide the conduct of perfect
lady.
It was interesting to turn the yellow old
pages, and contrast it with the modern
woman's magazine. One looked with awe
and wonder at the handsome colored fash
ion plates depicting ladies with classic coun-
tenances, and eighteen-inch waists, adorn-
ed in beruffled frocks with enormous hang
ing sleeves, and voluminous hoop skirts the
size Of haycock, and so long that only
the FINEST tip of an infinitesimM slipper
showed beneath them.
And one read with a smile the milk and
water and sugary little stories, in each of
which happy moral was pointed, and vice
punished and virtue rewarded, which sup
piled Grandmama with the mental food sup
posed in those times to be all the nourish-
ment that the weak feminine intellect could
digest. Not once in the entire magazine
were the words "sex" or Suffrage men
toned, nor was there any discussion of any
feminine activity except cooking and sew
ing, nor any reference to any of the thou
sand public questions in which women are
now interested, and Of which the women's
magazines of today are the mouth-pieces.
The old magazine shows how far women
have travelled in the last sixty-three years
along the road, Of progress, but there was
one article in it that might have been writ
ten yesterday, and that proves that there
is at least one point of view on life that
never changes. And that is the angle OF the
stand-patter, who always looks backwards
with complacency, and looks forward with
alarm; who is sure that the people of the
past generation held a monopoly on all of
the virtues, and that the youth of the pres
emit are going hot-foot to the devil.
Just at present sthe land is more than
usually afflicted with the walls of these
Jeremiahs and you cannot pick up paper
or magazine that is not filled with the
lamentations of some melancholy prophet
over the lack of manners of the young peo-
pie of today, and who does not devote quarts
Of printers ink to foretelling the awful fate
of our country when it falls into the hands
of the present Goddess generation.
Look at the indecent way in which girls
dress with skirts to their knees, no cor
SETS and three layers of chiffon doing duty
for a bodice! Look at the free and easy
way in which they associate with the OPP

of topics that women used to talk over only
with their doctors! Watch them shimmying,
and toddling and dancing other dances that
originated in brothels! What sort Of wives

It M;qht Be Much Worse

THE net shrinkage in Georgia's tax
values for the current year is so
much less than there was once rea-
son to anticipate, that we may well be
thankful and take courage. While the re-
turned valuation of farm lands shows de-
crease of $34,573,145 under the preceding
twelvemonth, that of city real estate shows
an increase of $20,416,1 1913. Thus against
loss of nine per cent in the one case can
be set a gain of six per cent in the other.
There are also. gains of $2,353,526 or five
per cent,-in bank stock; $746,839, or fifteen
per cent, in stocks and bonds; and 1851, 719,
or fifty-three per cent, in building-and-loan
stocks.
The losses, besides that already noted for
farm lands, are: Money and debts, $12,575,-
O51, or Is per cent; merchandise, $6,15O,-
AL, or per cent; automobiles, $5,93O,O77,
or II per cent; textile stocks, $1,745,845, or
Ash. or AZ per cent; mining property, $4,-
713, or per cent; household furniture, ST.
SS4,33O or four per cent; jewelry, $780,
$40, or per cent; live stock, $22,794,982,
Or 33 per cent; dogs, $4,173, or II per cent;
farm implements, $3,727,5SS, or "a per
cent cotton and other crops, $1,476,881, or
AZ per cent; timber and mineral leases,
$574,S42, or twenty-five per cent; tax de-
faulters, $212,280, or eight per cent; other
property, not otherwise classified above,
$7,290,045, or AZ per cent
When we observe, however, that with all
losses the net decrease in this year of trial
and stress is only seven per cent, whereas
fifteen per cent had been conservatively es-
timated, we should be anything but croak-
full.

The Reaction u, Jaban

IF, as some have suspected, the tragic tax
ing-off of Premier Hara, Japan's great
liberal and forward-thinking statesman
was a consequence of reactionary prejudice
and agitation in that country, the deed be-
comes doubly sinister and deplorable AS
such, however, it's effect both at home and
abroad should be altogether contrariwise to
the design of it's perpetrators.
For while the militaristic faction in Japan
Yields a certain unmistakabe1 influence, the
mass Of enlightened folk there, as throughout
the world, look at least open-mindedly, II
not with ardent hope, toward the forthcom-
ing international conference on armament re-
duction. Premier Hara, civilian and man
of the people, represented for his own coun-
trymen the power of that attitude and that
hope ellis proposal to act as Minister of
the navy during Admiral Kato's absence at
Washington writes an observer, mad Deen
deeply resented in both navy and army cir
cles in Japan" Hence the suspicion that
"such feeling might easily have led some UNI
balanced mind, or group Of minds, to think
they were serving threatened class or Or
der by striking him down."
Whether this be tie fact or no (and assur-
edly it is to be wished otherwise) the popu-
lar reaction should serve to strengthen the
cause of peace and cooperation for which the
martyred statesman stood. Had he lived, 1t
is believed. his influence would have been ex-
erted in behalf of friendly relations between
Japan and America, and also in behalf OF
the wider interests of armament restriction
and good will. His untimely death makes the
more imperative the duty of those to whom
these, generous endeavors are entrusted. All
liberal forces in Japan should muster to this
ideal and all liberal forces in America should
support them in the great common cause.
Upon the success of the approaching con-
ference depends the veal or woe Of mankind
in an age now dark and clustering. No
friend of America, no friend of humanity can
be obstructive or Indifferent.

SICKROOM MAKESHIFTS
By H. Addington Bruce

@ROM her experiences as a county
r. nurse Miss Z. A. Jones has noted
l. down, and the Wisconsin State Board
of Health has recorded, number OF devices
found serviceable in time Of illness when for
any reason the usual appliances and utensils
for the sickroom are not to be obtained
Thus, as substitutes for hot water bags, MISS
Jones mentions:
Wooden bags, filled with hot sand, bran,
or salt Heavy plates of earthenWare heated
in oven. Flatirons, jugs or bottles of hot
water. Ears of corn steamed. Hot flannel
Aluminium pie tins covered with towel
AS a bed cradle:
Light drygoods boxes, of a suitable size,
with sides removed, set across the patient.
Boxes to be clean and covered with muslin.
May be stayed at the corners with extra strips
of wood, covered and nailed across the cor
ners Sometimes camp stool can be used
or child's table placed over patient.
For a high bed:
Raise the patients bed by placing chairs
under footpiece and headpiece. If the bed is
wooden, place long Stats over side railing and
lid up with springs. Or place bricks or
clocks of wo l Under legs of bed. Magazines
or books might be used
If feeding tubes are needed:
Use wheat or oat straws properly prepared.
Soda fountain straWs. Butter-paper funnel
which may be placed in PATIENTS mouth, and
small pitcher from which drink is slowly
poured into funnel. Child's teapot. Small
cream pitcher.
AS improvised screens:
Large umbrellas placed on chairs. Sheets
pinned on backs of chairs. Sheets pinned to
two or three hall trees. Sheets pinned to up
right clothes bars. Sheets hung over wires
or strings.
For sickroom door in hot weather use one
square of muslin, sew loops or rings in each
of the four corners, fasten to hooks in door
casing, hang top edge just above the level
of the eyes. If for airing room, muslin
may be tackled over the window, or, better,
over an ordinary screen.
For bed table:
A 27-inch board, with 9-inch legs at each
corner or boards nailed at each end to sup
port it when across bed patients lap.
Ice boxes:
Use two boxes, one three inches smaller
every way than the other. Place three inches
of saWdust or hay well packed in bottom OF
larger box. Place smaller box inside in mid
lie and pack sawdust or hay around sides
and ends securely, with several th1cknesse OF
clean cloth over top. Place blocks OF IL
and food inside, and cover.

THE ATLANTA TRI-WEEkLY JOURNAL

part of this wealth would not have been
produced, nor the money it represents have
been brought into circulation to the enrich
ment of Selma and Dallas country trade,
had not the business leaders of that city bent
their best energies to the solution or just
such problems as now demand an answer in
Georgia.
The lesson for thinking men Of affairs in
this Commonwealth is plain. First OF all, 1t
is through their initiative that new fields or
farm production must be encouraged and
needful markets provided. Their own and
the general prosperity is at stake together,
and they must act betimes if they would
avert far leaner years than any yet suffered.
When they show the farmer wherein certain
food crops will profit him, at the same time
preparing market, then will he raise tnem'
but rarely before. Merchants and bankers
and civic leaders must bestir the: selves TO
this end If the great gap cause by enforced
curtaiiment of the cotton acreage Is to be
filled. So it was in Dallas county, so must
it be in Georgia counties.
This is not to simply that our chambers
of commerce and kindred bodies all should
hurry forth to establish creameries. That
would end in speedy and ridiculous failure,
for the present output Of milk in Georgia
would hardly suffice to keep one extensive
creamery operating. Ashburn has made q
most praiseworthy beginning in this province
of farm diversifcation, and Is steadily up
building the dairy resources of Turner coun-
ty. But as the Alabama example, from
which Ashburn took her cue, so clearly
shows, there must be creditable dairy herds
before there can be creditable dairy prod
ucts. If Georgia promoters will begin, as in
some communities they already have
begun at that fundamental need, it will not
be many years until multiplied millions of
dollars are added to the States stream OF
prosperity.
But the all-important lesson from Selma
is not so much in what was done as in how
it was done-the method and spirit of the
performance. In the fact that business lead
ers saw in a great economic need their OPP
portunity and duty to serve the common in
terests; in the fact that they investigated
widely and carefully, availing themselves OF
the most competent counsel to be procured
and skillfully adapting general ideas to par
ticular needs; in the fact that they cooper
ated so heartily and effectively among them
selves that cooperation from the farmers was
not only inspired but necessitated;-ln this
lies the prime practical wisdom which Geor-
gians well may emulate.
