A New Prodigy.

Arthur Gottesman, boy Of TO- has enter
ed as a freshman in Oglethorpe university,
and all Atlanta and Georgia watching to
see what this new southern prodigy accom-
plishes. He will be put through a course Of
study and carefully observed He is to un-
dertake subjects usually allotted to youths of
10 or 20 VIII he make the grade? What
will be his mental reactions? And his devel-
opment? These are the questions educators
at Og1ethorpe will try to answer by noting
from tinle to time what Arthur does with his
most unusual opportunity.
The boy will not be matriculate at Ogle-
thorpe He merely is to be a subject for a
new experiment which the educators describe
as measuring precocity." Arthur recently
underwent an intelligence test and made a
grade OF 1884, which was "a points above the
average OF 100 for boys of his age. Conse-
uuently he aroused the interest of the faculty
at the university, and every teacher with
whom his studies will bring him in contact
is eager to observe what he does.
1t has been the usual observation OF late
years that precocity of this kind is not to
be greatly desired. 1t does not matter how
swiftly one progresses alter passing the pc
Rod OF adolescence. There was the case OF
Alexander Hamilton, and today the fnancia
world is astounded with the remarkable
grasp of S Parker Gilbert who is to have
charge of the German reparations project
under the Dawes plan. Mr. Gilbert is bare
ly 81 Alexander Hamilton was under 81
when he was recognized as financial genius
The most encouraging thing in connection
with the reports of Arthur Gottesmans men
talty and personality is that he is physically
and temperamentally regular boy. He Likes
football, baseball and basket ball, and play
little tennis. If he lets himself go as boy
and p1unges into the delights most young
sters of his age find he may be saved iron
his own percocity. Otherwise, there may b'
no hope for him.

Joint Responsibility.

As motor car accidents mount with the IN
crease OF vehicles in service public censure
of the careless driver seems to be intensihed
The driver of the motor car, however, IS not
the only one to be blamed for carelessness.
The pedestrian does not go free if justice IS
done. There numerous persons atoot
some OF them the owners and drivers OF au-
tor1obiles, who apparently take a keen de-
light in daring the right OF way Some stroll
in crossing streets at intersections, looking
neither to the right nor to the left and ig
noring blandly the honking of the horn of the
car approaching them. In down town traffic
there is less danger to pedestrians OF this
type than in the residence sections. The in
different pedestrian may put his dependence
in the caution OF the driver once too often.
There should be cooperation between driver
and pedestrian Tor greater degree OF safe

the responsibility that belongs to him.

The situation that confronts Georgia is OF
far greater gravity than usual this year be-
cause there are three candidates in the race
for the presidency, and the electors put out
as the supporters of Coolidge and LaFollette
are going to receive much larger vote than is
usually received by the democratic opposition.
1t is generally believed that little If any IN
roads will be made into the republican ranks
in this state this year, but that Coolidge cleo
tors will receive larger vote than Harding
did four years ago. and Harding's vote show,
ed gain in 1920 of 81 per cent over Hughes
vote of 1916 LaFollettes strength will be
drawn largely from the democratic party IN
Georgia, according to present indications ana
the election is only one week away.

From the National Farmer

Does the senate want to help the farmer?
Senators have been telling the cock-eyed
world they do-that they want and intend to
get action.
Senator Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas,
accompanied by Senator Thomas J. Walsh, of
Teapot Dome fame and other lawmakers got
some action on golf course in the neigh
borhood of the senate. In mix-up over the
game the senator from Arkansas felled DR..
Joseph F. Mitchell with his fist. That is SEN
atorial action for you.
1t is now in order to have congress meet
on the golf links instead of at the national
capitol Bills for farm aid will be wrapped up
in GOLF balls Some of course will get lost,
but some will stand chance of overcoming
all hazards and landing safely in the eigh-
teenth hole, whatever that is. 1t is not the
eighteenth amendment. Any one who gets in
the way of senator with a bill to help the
farmer will have his case settled by punch
on the jaw. We ought to elect Jack Demp-
sey to the senate.

Why 1t Is Important That Every Democrat in Georgia
Should Vote for Davis and Bryan Next Tuesday, Nov 4h
From the Columbus Enquirer-Sun.

The democrats lost IS per cent in 1920
over their vote of 1916 or net republican
gain of 81 per cent This means something,
because we believe that Coolidge is more pop
ular in the south--in Georgia-this year than
Harding was sfour years ago. And when it
comes to LaFollettes supporters they claim
that they are going to get ten democratnc
votes-votes that should go to Davis-to one
republican vote, that would go to Coolidge.
To meet this situation the democrats of the
state must go to the polls and vote the dem
ocratic ticket Tuesday week.
The time is growing short and there is
much work to be done.
Democrats must get to work now. There
is no time to be lost.

Chicago, Aug. 2S.-The modern wo-
and dominance, may yet become a
first-class squaw.
But squaw among the Iroquois
Indians was a more powerful person.
age than most of the emancipated
women of today. The picture of the
Indian woman bearing her husbands
burdens and tilling the corn fields
while he smoked in the shade may
be put away on the shelf along with
yesteryear's Kerosene lamps. Squaw
is a word Of dignified rank.
Such are the thoughts suggested
by DR.. Fay Cooper Cole, associate
professor Of anthropology at the
University of Chicago, after studies
of matriarchal or material govern
ment among the Menangkabaus of
Sumatra and the Iroquois of North
America. The squaw very often was
the power behind the wigwam, ac-
cording to DR.. Cole.
Pawns of Wives
"Under matriarchal system the
husbands have no property rights, no
rights in their children and often
are political pawns of the wives," he
says. "The, system usually accom-
panies very high type of advance
ment in culture. The Menangkabaus
are by no means primitive people.
The Iroquois in America were among
the least primitive Indians.
The whole political system was
built upon the family, and woman
was the controlling element in the
family. Usually it was the older or
head woman.
