BABIES
By DR.. Frank Crane


Babies mean that this laundering human
zee has chance to try it again.
Through babies is our only hope of reform.
Adults become set in their ways. Babies are
plastic. We could attain any Utopia, and cor
rect every evil society, and clean up poll
tics, and cure all the ills of industry, and
abolish all diseases, and altogether hasten the
Golden Age and hurry the Millennium, if we
would only begin wit the babies.
Instead of arguing with prejudiced adults,
and trying tc mould hard-boiled groWn-ups, If
we would let them alone (nature will kindly
remove them anyhow in a tew years. anu
would devote our efforts to trailing the ba-
bies. we should make better time on our way
to Kingdom Come.
If the world is ever to be "saved' it Will
be through the cradle.
We have been trying to conquer the bar
barian; surer way is to ouE-populate the
barbarian.
When nature puts laughing, healthy baby
in woman's lap it is destiny's diploma, 1t IS
the medal for the Legion of Honor of the AL
mighty, it is the reward OF the universe lot
keeping its laws.
# is the baby that matters. 1t is for the
bahv we plal and work and deny ourselves,
even as our fathers and mothers did for us.
It is our contribution to life. 1t is our ex-
cuse for existence
For we can do nothing of greater value to
the world than to offer it new life.
whenever a chilo is born new universe
is created said Jean Taul.
And all we do for the baby we are amply
paid for.
We give the child our labor and pains, but
what priceless things we get il return!
We get the finest and strongest ingredients
of man, the most beautiful and valued charm
of WOmanhood.
We gain discipline, self-control, loyalty and
permanence of character.
Every man is decenter and drawer because
a little child calls him father"
Every woman is truer, more loving ana
breast.
A woman who has not known motherhood
has missed what is the richest and most eX-
allied experience lie has to offer.
All the anxiety and heartaches it may I'M
ply are more han compensated by the de-
licious feeling of having new life depend
ent upon her. looking up to her as heather
look up to their idols, expecting shelter and
defense from er as chick runs to the moth
ering hen and hides under her wing.
The most exquisite pleasure is always found
in giving, not in receiving. And VIII gives
SO amazingly IS a mother Here is that royal
way that imperial largess, of which kings
courts are poor imitation.
The true -ealth of & nation is in its ba-
bies. They mean more than skyscrapers and
huge corporations. Their little veins arc the
true veins of wealth, more fruitful in terms
Of human wealth than veins of gold.

TO PREVENT DIABETES
By H. AddingtOn Bruce

TF you wish to increase the likelihood of
I your escaping the dread disease of dia-
I a Detes keep your weight down. Between
overweight and diabetes there would seem to
be a direct relation, as sundry medical men
have long noted, and as is emphasized
anew by the findings Of a Boston physician,
Dr. Elliott P. Joslin.
Studying the records Of 1000 consecutive
diabetes cases, DR.. JOSH. discovered that only
10 per cent of those afflicted were at all below
the normal weight for height and age, while
us per cent were above it. Futher he reports
There was no instance in v hich diabetes
occurred where the maximum weight was 80
or more per cent below the ormal zone
whereas there were 273 persons who devel-
oped the disease among those who were
SO or more per cent above it"
And:
"Of these 1000 persons with diabetes
there were only five who showed a maximum
weight 81 per cent or more below normal,
while there were as many as 394 whose max
imum weight was Fl or more per cent above
normal.
Therefore, in this series, when the per-
sons were 21 or more per cent overweight,
diabetes occurred seventy-nine times as fire.
qtsently as when in the corresponding degree
of underweght."
Hence Dr. Joslin concludes
diabetes is largely penalty of obesity
and the greater the obesity the 1lore likely is
Nature to ENFORCE it. The sooner this IS
realized by physicians and the laity the soon
er will the advancing frequency of diabetes
be checked
THE penalty of taking too much alcohol is
we'll known and a drunkard is looked on
with pity or contempt. Rarely persons VINO
become fat deserve pity because of real
tendency to put on weight despite moderate
eating, but should usually be placed in some
what the same category as the alcoholic. In
the next generation one may almost pc
ashamed to have diabetes"
Going to confirm this view is an interest
ing medical note recently received from a
European savant, DR.. D. Gerhardt, regarding
the occurrence of diabetes in the war-stricken
regions.
There, of course, the people were for sew
eral years subjected to unusual emotional
strain, a factor nowadays regarded as play
ing some part in the development of diabetes.
Also the food obtainable was not of the sort
accepted as favorable for diabetes patients.
Yet, despite the stresses and severe dietin&
of war time, the diabetes actually improved;
suggesting, as Gerhardt dri1y remarks, that
it might be we'll in every case to limit strict
ly the entire intake of food by diabetes.
Which, for that matter, is precisely what
is done in the so-called Allen treatment OF
diabetes. In it's initial stage this treatment
is essentially treatment by starvation. And
excellent are the results reported as effected
by it.
Better far, however, to undereat Dit as
preventive of diabetes than to be obliged
to 20 on starvation diet as Z. means of cure.
This is why would urge all tending to obes-
ity to ponder seriously the statistics DR.. JOS
lin presents.

From the Old N;cke7odeon

= TNATOR BOISE PENROsE, STUN
bling recently into motion picture
theater, was astounded. Giving voice
to his emotions, the senator is quoted as
follows:
1.-THE last time I saw a movie was in
a sort of store, seating about two hundred
people. Anckelodeon, I think it was call
ed. You paid five cents to see a so-caIled
comedy-mostly slapstck-or a love story
with middle-aged actors. There was no
music, dim lights, no ventilation. 1 was
discoura red"
After ten or fifteen years the senator
finds himself in a building finer architec-
turallv than the Metropolitan opera house
in New York and more gorgeously furnish
ed. An orchestra of some thirty or forty
pieces lends an emotional accompaniment
under a varied play of lighting effects, to
a screen presentation where youth. beauty
and intense dramatic power capture the
imagination and the interest.
Two thousand instead Of two hundred
people look on. Ventilation is perfect com
fort of seats and surroundings is secured
to a point luxurious. The scene is as far
removed from the old nickeodeOn days IS
white from black.
Most regular attendants At motion pic
lures are well-nigh unaware Of this mighty
change. Thera are some to whom II IS an
astoundrng reveIat n Well might the sena-
tor, a conservative spirit, be amazed.

Mexican Banks.
More than twenty Mexican banks which for
merry had authority to issue paper money
and which were closed during the admins
tration of President Carranza, were given
permission to resume business through a de-
cree made public by President Obregon, The
largest of these institutions was the Banco
Nacional de Mexico of Mexico City, in which
there are heavy foreign investments,
Formal proofs of their right to reopen
their doors must be filed by the banks with
the minister of the treasury within thirty
days, although this time may be extended Of
fcally to sixty days Liquidation of the banks
obligations, including the payment of deposits
made prior to April Is, 1913 must be paid as
follows: All claims less than 1000 pesos
must be paid in gold Immediately and all
above that amount must be paid in six
years. All paper money must re redeemed in
eight years

From the Famine Shadow
THAT neither distance nor national
ity makes one whit of difference in

-THAT neither distance nor national
ity makes one whit of difference in
the great humanitarian cause of
Herbert Hoover and his associates on the
European Relief Council, must be manifest
to one who reads the moving letter that
has been published broadcast in America
from Joseph Schmidt, of the Oberrechnug-
STRAIT, Rodlergasse, Vienna.
The writer of this letter speaks from the
heart in the same spirit that prompts the
thousands of dollars Americans are giving
to save the lives of little children. He
gives a picture of the actual need the 1000
purchased with that money is meeting, anu
the terrible condition it is designed to allie
viate, bound to stir the heart of anyone VINO
reads his letter. But let him and MS let-
ter speak for themselves
"I am" he says, "a government otflclal
by profession. My yearly income does not
surpass by much that of tram"ay EN-.
ployee The misery and distress brougnt
upon us by this atroclous war IS hoU u
be described in words.
81 am the father Of five children, from
seven to seventeen years of age, FOR "nom
| have to care. My poor wife died OF tuper-
culosis in February, 1919, at the age OF
thirty-eight. Perhaps 1t would pc morS aG-
curate to say she slowly starved to death
during the war, for she gave to her little
ones tortured by hunger, the scanty plts
of bread rationed to her SO she had noth-
ing left, until death released her from her
Sufferlngs. 4
Like an angel from Heaven the great
American nation made its appearance at
the period of supreme distress, distribute
ing wondering food and restoring LIE 10
those about to succumb to their misery
This great nation does not say, An eye
for an eye tooth for TOOTH; they give
love for hatred; and millions have come
forth from their source Of love. Ihey 90
not ask for thanks, nor for compensation
they only want to give, in the quiet assur-
ance of saving thousands of children VINO
otherwise would have been prey TO death
when my poor wife was lying cold on
her deathbed, the old doctor who came TO
certify her death looked at the weeping
children and sadly turned to the door, say
ing children, God will not forsake you.
And his words have come true; my chill
dren were saved by you. In the evening;
when they say their prayers, they ask God
TO bless their benefactors."
There is much food for thought IN this
letter From it may be drawn the sure con-
clusion that the bread America is casting
on the waters today will return four-told
to her in the bonds Of friendship and graf
itude she is knitting among these chlldren
and their fathers and mothers But 1t IS
not necessary to draw such lesson. 1t IS
enough that these children starve and that
Americans can save them. Assuredly we
need no other incentive than this.

A Good Sermon at DahIonega

The pastor of the Methodist cl urch at DAN
lonega is evidently uncompromising ex-
ponent of the "od time religion which is
good enough for anybody. The Dahlonega
Echo made the following reference to ser
mon recently delivered:
1--WE heard man say that If the contribu-
ton basket had been passed after the sermon
last Sunday at the Methodist churcl he
would have contributed twenty times as
much as he did before the sermon. This man
is not member of the Methodist church, but
he is of the opinion that the kind of preach
ing handed out last Sunday IS good for any
body"
Still we believe that 1t is wise to pass the
plate first Had the man been sincere there
was no regulation against making the addl-
tionaI contribution after the sermon.

PORTRAIT OF A NEIGHBOR

Before she has her floor swept
Or her dishes done,
Any day you'll find her
Assuming in the sun.
It's long after midnight,
Her keys in the lock,
And you never see her chimney smoke
Till past 10 o'clock.
She digs in her garden
With shovel and a spoon,
She weeds her lazy lettuce
By the light of the moon
&he walks up the walk
Like a woman in a dream,
She forgets she borrowed butter
And pays you back cream.
Her lawn looks like meadow,
And if she moves the place
She leaves the clover standing
And the Queen Anne's lace.

Fishermen in Flower Again

The man who enjoys fishing with rod and
hook, thereby allowing the fish sportsman's
chance is coming into his own again, as may
he seen from the following paragraph from
the Brunswick News:
"Fishermen of the country are in flower
again. Not since the days Of Grover Cleve-
land have we had a real modern Isaac Wal
ton in the great presidential office How
ever Grover Cleveland was fisherman. We
await results from Adams KEYS. Fla. as to
whether or not we are to place President
elect Harding in the Cleveland Glass;
Reports indicate that the president-elect
is having good luck" and that the newspa-
per men accom- panving him are living up to
the expectation of their friends.
