Eliminate war and convert the trib-

arts and crafts of peace and all that
has been accomplished in the last
century will be doubled in twenty
years, President William c. Deming
of the Civil Service Commission de-
clared in an address at the annual
memorial services of the Columbia
Typographical Union at Typographi-
cal temple yesterday.
1T Is the veriest of human falIacy
and the acme of political frailty to
longer contend that war between civ
ilized nations is essential to national
perpetuity," Mr.. Deming said.
The readers of history bark back
to the great explorers by land and
sea, and / would not take one laurel
from the honored brow of those who
blazed new trails over hazardous
ground. Crusaders and worthy re-
formers have set the standards Of re-
ligion and civilization far in advance
of those early and medieval times.
Inventors continue to startle us
with the results of their investiga-
tions and experimentation, but, after
all the greatest influence the world
has ever known in a practical edu-
cational, academic line dates back
from the time when Gutenberg first
made use of adjustable type"

We have been told repeatedly that
we eat too much. The proof of the
statement is seen when people who
have hitherto given no thought to the
quantity of food eaten decide to OBJ
serve the matter of food economy as
closely as they do their bank accounts.
The outcome is that in four cases out
of FIVE the food intake is lowered and
genuine Improvement in personal effic-
iency results. Money is saved and
health is gained, the business Of living
shows double profits, just as when
man makes change in his farm or
factory management that cuts costs
and at the same time increases income.
You can safely cut down on excess
sive eating with no other guide except
your weight. If you are fatter than
you need be, it is important that you
cut down your food quantities consid-
erably. Don't be a food Stacker and
fear little hunger pangs. Thousands
of fat people have reduced their diet
and thereby reduced their weight, and
increased health, vigor and improved
their appearance and physical and
mental efficiency.
Even those of you who do not seem
particularly fat, may be overeating.
Try a moderate reduction in food and
watch the scales. You will lose a few
pounds, chiefly due TO an emptying out
of the congested intestines, but it will
give you more room to breathe and a
better chance to think. As long as you
do not continue to lose weight to
point of actual thinness, the reduction
of food quantities won't hurt you, if
the food quality is right
The conclusion that the majority OF
civilized men eat too much may be
reached either by process of general
reasoning, or by the observation of in
dividual experiences. The wild man,
along with the wild animals, was en-
bowed with an appetite and food re-
ceiving capacity far in excess of what
would be needed three times day.
Food in the jungle was available by
fits and starts, and the meal hours
were irregular The man with the
greater appetite and food capacity had
a better chance of surviving unexpect-
ed delays in the meal hours than did
the man of dainty appetite. Hence our
instinct as to the amount of food to
be eaten is often wide Of the mark for
present-day conditions
So today, at least among all of US,
save those engaged in heavy muscular
labor, the tendency is to overeat. Es-
pecislly is this true of the man who in
early life was devoted to athletic
sports or engaged in heavy muscular
labor, and who, upon changing to
more sedentary life, prides himself on
his former capacity for three square
meals a day"

idea of casting civilization aside
and starting north on an exploring
trip. The dazzle Of sunlight on
polar ice would soon send the aver
age person scurrying home. If that
failed, the bitter weather and scant
rations of rough food would quick
ly give the average man his fill of
adventure"
People don't really want to ex-
perience adventures. They just
imagine they do. Cunning fiction
writer's know this, so they soft-pedai
the disagreeable side. For instance,
it's fine to read about the ghostly
far-off midnight tom-tom in the
jungle. The picture is spoiled if
the writer tells about the adyen-
turers being devoured by mos
quitoes.
Even the adyenturer has to pay
in full for his joys and thrills.
That's natural law and he can't es-
cape it.

SHALL GLEN HUDSON BE
PARDONED?

A dispatch in yesterdays Her
aid brought the news that appll-
cation for pardon has been made
for Glen M. Hudson, convicted in
Dougherty county Of the murder
Of two little boys. Rptert and
isaiah Temple, his stepchildren'
This dispatch, which came from
Donalsonyille, stated that AT
torhey Julian Hodges is handling
the application and hopes to pre-
sent the case before the Prison
Board and the Governor N a way
to secure his parole at an early
date
Hudson was convicted Of muir
der and sentenced to hang, and
the sentence was upheld by the
Supreme Court to which appeal
was taken, but Governor Hard
wick committed the sentence to
life Imprisonment, and it APP
pears that Hudson was assigned
to the changing in Seminole
county. He has served less than
two years of his life sentence.
1t begins to appear as though
it is next to impossible, to hang a
white man in Dougherty country
or even to have one whose death
sentence has been commuted to
life Imprisonment serve out his
sentence.
Ludey Riley, convicted of rape
and sentenced to death. had his
sentence committed to life inn
prisonment by Governor Hard
wick, and escaped from the chain
gang in Camden county after
serving only a few months.
Fred Best, sentenced to not less
than Is years or more than 20
years for killing Bayard Dozier,
was pardoned by Governor Hard
wick without the recommended
tlon OF the Prison, Commission,
after serving about two years.
And now comes this applica-
ton for the pardon of Glen, Hud-
son, whose double crime was so
revolving that it shocked not only
the people Of Dougherty county,
but the sensibilities Of the people
of the entire state. While Hud-
son was in Jail here public senti-
ment was so strong against him
that there were rumbIing threats
of a lynching, but the wise pre-
cautions of faithful officials and
the protest of good citizens aver
ted an outbreak.
If ever a man deserved hang
ing for a crime Glen Hudson did.
and the people of Dougherty coun,
~ were not pleased with the COM
mutation of his sentence. To
pardon him now would be an OUT
rage, and in behalf of the law
abiding people of Dougherty
county The Herald protests
against it.-Albany Herald.
