HINTS FOR PARENTS
By H. AddingtOn Bruce

\ PPRECIATIVE of the Importance of
n your child doing well in school, you
doubtless cooperate with his teachers
to the extent of urging him to study faith
fully, to pay attention in the classroom, to
be polite and orderly in his ways
Do you also cooperate by setting him an
example of these qualities which mean so
much for his education+
Many parents, unfortunately, do not thus
cooperate. And unfortunately their children
are much more likely to be influenced by the
examples set them than by the precepts
dinned into their ears.
This follows from the extreme suggestibil-
1ty of childhood, the tendency of childhood
to be governed in it's acquisition of habits OF
thought and behavior by the instinct of imi
taton.
Let parent be himself or herself lacking
in diligence, interested more in amusement
than in achievement, thoughtless, impatient.
and rude, and the child of such a parent
will almost inevitably constitute a thorny
problem for teachers.
Recently I came across a jest which has
more than modicum of truth in it:
Before teachers blame a chld's tonsils
for his dulness, they should take look
at the childs parents"
1t is notorious that there are homes in
which one or both parents are frankly lazy.
There homes in which the criterion of
happiness is the gaining of pleasure.
There are homes, too, in which, day after
day and many times day, the parents are
rude to each other and speak dispara gngly
OF friends and acquaintance.
All this has a disturbing, an unsetting
effect on the children in such homes
Why should they study hard, when their
parents by their every action betray repug-
nance to earnest effort?
Why should they be attentive, when the
last thing their parents do is to think really
hard about anything?
Why should they be polite to teachers and
D19Vm4tnS bnir ntq do
and perhaps indulge in outright quarrels?
The contrast between precept and example
is too glazing to be lost upon the child.
And unless circumstances-as they sometimes
do-enter to provide him with counter
balancing good example, precept is certain
to make little impression upon him.
He may, indeed if he is Of an unusually
sensitive nature. be so unfaVorably affected
by the example of his indolent, pleasure
loving, and quarrelsome parents as to be-
come, not merely incapable of doing good
work, but also nervously overweight.
His nervous trouble, again, may show IT.
self in any one of several ways. Unruliness
and mlsbehayior by children, even lying and
theft, have at times been found merely
symptomatic of nervousness due to emo
tlonal conflict born of distressing home in
fluences.
These are facts parent can afford to
ignore. Ask yourself, then, just how far
you really cooperating with your chld's
teachers, bearing in mind that precept CO.
operation alone is hardly worthy of the
name.

Allan Dawson, New York editor, used
to tell how he was in London when the
question of making five hundred new lords
was agitating England. He claimed that he
happened to be in the press gallery of the
House OF Commons while the subject was
under discussion.
at was an exciting time said Dawson
ga long list of names was under considera-
ton. | listened until the House had dis
posed OF three and had chosen their titles
The first man they picked on was Gen
eral Booth of the Salvation Army. 1t was
set forth that his title was to be LORD
Saveus. The next was Mr.. Patterson, the
big baggage and express man of London
and his title was to be Lord Deliverus. The
third was Mr.. Pink, who owned the largest
jam Factory in England. They decided tC
call him Lord Preseryeus. After that l cams

CONGRESS TO BEGIN TO GRIND

coed it, in waste and uselessness is the
United States congress. On the first Mon

20 cents permile. Those who attend from

| extra and above the price of their railroad
| tickets No wonder the great majority are
unwilling to leave Washington when they
| fail to be reelected. They continue to
stay and generally shrivel up into the lob
byist variety-until they are good for moth

them. | might say without contradiction,
that an eX-congressman is almost good for
nothing to himself or his people after he

THE TRUTH ABOUT
TRANSPORTATION
BY DR.. Frank Crane,
TINE army, as figure of speech, has

TINE army, as a figure of speech, has
been overworked.
- We speak of the Church as the Army
of the Lord of the School the Army at
lacking Ignorance, and the like. But the
analogy of any purely spiritual or education
al movement to a military organization is
mislea ding; for this reason, that the OBJ
ject of an army is to set thing done. It
is entirely an executive affair, while the
purpose of moral or intellectual enterprises
is to develop the faculties of its members.
In the army it is a first principle that the
individual is to sacrifice himself to the ma
chine . In the schoolroom, Church, scientific
or literary movement quite the reverse Is
true; the organization exists merely for the
sake of the human unit.
The more a Church, school or political
party emphasizes the machinery, the power,
glory and influence of the organization, the
less is it's value to the souls in 1t. Person
ality is the very thing such an institution
does not exist to suppress, but to develop.
1.-The Sababth'' said Jesus, twas made for
man, and not Man for the Sabbath" And
the nearer we APPROACH to wisdom the
weiphtier seem the human value The well
fare of one little baby is of more importance
than all the decisions of the courts, Wom-
ans happiness is of more account than all
the banks of the city, and a soul is greater
than cathedral.
In the laundering economy of Man we
sacrifice thousand lives to defend bound
airy line, in the infinite love and sagaclty OF
God a thousand planets would be smashed
to preserve one idea.
After all, the most important question IN
all the world is What is to become of Me?"
This is not wholly selfish. At least it is
intelligent selfishness.
Anyone who entirely forgets himself and
cares nothing about himself or says so, L
will not say he is telling an untruth, for he
may be perfectly sincere. But 1T is very
probable that he is thinking loosely.
1t is we'll enough to give ones self up to a
noble idea, but the only way we know that
an idea is noble~is that it ennobles us.
If the great principle of conviction or
creed .awakens no greatness in us, then 1t
does not justify itself.
If do not preserve myself and maintain
my health my reason and my conscience, L
shall not be of much use to other people.
One is not like to be of much service to
the world in loving others as himself unless
he loves himself intelligently.
The real Army of the Lord is composed
Of those soldiers who true first of all to
themselves. And, as Shakespeare says, 1t
must follow as the night the day, they can
not then be false to any man.

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY

The law of the Lord is perfect conpert-
ing the soul, the testimony of the Lord is
sure, making Mise the simple. The statutes
of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is pure, en-
tightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord
is clean, enduring forever; the judgments
of the Lord are true and righteous alto
getheT. More to be desired are they than
gold, yea than much fine gold; Sweeter
also than honey and the honeycomb.
Moreover, by them is Thy servant waened,
and in keeping of them there is great re-
ward. Who can understand his errors?
Cleanse Thou me from secret faults. Let
the WordS OF my mouth and the meditations
OF my heart be acceptable in Thy sight,
o Lord, my strength and my Redeemer-

THE COUNTRY HOME
w. Fl. FELTON,

1924 will b launched and we'll under way
Politics is hot now, it will be sizzling hot
in many states by March, also in congress,
and getting hotter. 1t will cause the sane
and sensible to remark, (for thethousandth
time, / guess) 1--WE will never do any
better until a president is allowed a six
year term, and then retired to private life
Coming back to the Georgia legislature
the taxpayers should elect a governor for
four years and then retire him for the
good of the people, en- masse-to private
life.
We should allow the Legislature to as
semble only twice in the four years, and
stop making countless and thus COM
pei a reduction of salaried offcials-and
demand an audit of all the money drawn
from the state treasury-and published
statement to the receiver and his name
and his place of residence-and the name
of his boss in the public service. The
members of the legislature have stared on
their third week of the special session.
The governor is to be criticized loudly for
making the call 1t was superfuous and so
declared. The people cannot vote on what
they decide to do, until November, 1924.
In view of what is now going on the voters
are more than apt to defeat anything the
general assembly passes.
AS l write this | find the legislature has
passed the Langford bill, to charge per
cent income gross tax and to reduce the ad
valorem tax to 8 mills-from 5 milsl
The members of this legislature who
shouted against Governor Hardwck in 1922
for favoring an income tax before the tax
equalization bill was voted on by the senate,
owe him an humble apology at this time.
The Langford bill vindicates Ex-Governor
Hardwick and puts the burden on the men
who really did the work--in the year 1922,
and the whole thing is now fully exposed.
To my mind this jS~a great mistake, and I
expect the taxpayers to defeat it's ratifca-
ton next year, 1924.
It should be ad valorem tax or a straight
income tax-as a part and parcel of the
federal tax. To mix the taxes between the
two will never work satisfactorily It may
facilitate Senator Langford's campaign for
governor, because he is in front of the other
candidates just now, but this muddle will
entail endless expense to taxpayers and a
multitude of officials to balance accounts, as
to value, and as to the revenue secured from
property-whch constitutes the value.
| The old ad valorem law has been safe
as to state taxes. This mixtry of value and
income will be open door to the widest
appropriations and the result will be in
evitable-nO progress.
The big business organizations will let
Georgia alone strictly. They will see no
good reason for throwing their money into
a maelstrom of politics, with no limit to
graft and hypocrisy.
The land owner will catch is coming and
going. The Empire State will swarm with
spy investiga tors. The wise investor will
give Georgia the "go-by." This scheme is

The Georgia Income Tax Bill:
. 4 Plea for Its Perfection

Q ONE Of the onsets against the Georgia
income tax BILL as it passed the House,
have been so immoderate that support
ers Of the measure might well suspect such
criticism as being of wholly destructive
purpose. Let us say at the outset that The
Journal does not walk in that counsel nor
sit In the seat of the scornful. We are ear
nestly DESTROYS of seeing enacted at the pres
ent session of the General Assembly legisla-
ton that will insure revenues adequate to the
States progressive needs, under efficient
government. Moreover, we believe that an
income tax, if levied with reason and Justice,
is an altogether proper means to that end
We are mindful of the difficulties to be en-
countered in any effort at tax revsion-of
the misunderstanding, the narrow self-inter-
est, the reactionism and the demagogy that
come swarming forth whenever such ques-
lions are at issue. We do not ask of the
Legislature the impossible achievement of
pleasing all men, let alone all women. We
do ask that it look vigiantly to the broad
interests of the rank and file, over whose
rights and prosperity it now holds so far
ranging an influence.
Because these interests stand jeopardized
by House amendment to the Landlord bill
and because, moreover, the entire program
of needful tax revision is threatened with
failure unless honest fears upon that point
set at rest, we appeal to the House and
Senate to unknot that matter in order that
their constructive work may be carried to
completion. This can be done the more
easily in that it calls for no surrender of con-
viction or principle, but simply for read
justment and safeguard.
The troublous amendment is that which
strikes from the Senate draft of the bill the
provision that the proposed tax shall be upon
net incomes. This, it must be said, leaves
the way open to grave contingencies. That
supporters of the amendment have the besl
OF intentions and argue cogently for its
adoption, does not alte. the fact that good
citizens are filed with apprehension if not
alarm-apprehension which, we are bound
to aver, is not fancifuI. Business men and
farmers alike, to say nothing of the host OF
wage-earners and salaried workers, can but
feel anxious at the prospect of there being
written into the States constitution author
ity for tse Legislature to tax gross incomes
Whatevsf may be urged in defense of the
House amendment (Which, we grant, is no.
without precedenD there remains the posi-
bility OF its working serious injustice to in
dividuals and institutions and loss of pros.
perity to the commonwealth. Consider an
instance two of its danger.
If, under this amendment, business con
Germ had gross income of million dollars
and net income of only thousand dollars
