When Women Read

Formerly the main argument of the
evening newspaper was that people.
and especially women, had no time
for reading in the morning. 1t was
the evening only that afforded leisure
hours. There has been a decided
change in this regard of late years.
and due largely to the increasing at
traction of the moving pictures, as
we'll as the radio and the automobile
as sources of evening entertainment.
In fact. there is a tendency to rush
directly from the evening meal to
one or the other of these diversions.
Also the wider use of labor saving de-
vices in the homes, tends to save the
housekeeper her former hurry With
the house cleaning and the meals, so
that it is not so difficult to find time
to read the morning paper.

Sins of Omission
The assembly of Georgia goes on
record again as having done no really
valuable work for the state, unless
Just before adjournment they pass
the biennial session bill and larger ap-
preparation measures for the state in
situations. 1t seems no matter how
conscientiously each new incumbent
views his duty on taking is place in
a legislator, he soon becomes inocu-
lated with the prevailing spirit of ego
tism, as to what his position can mean
10 him, rather than what he may
mean to his state. Always there is a
woeful waste of time in the earlier days
of the session, adjournments for holl-
DAYS. junkets and what not. There is
shameful record of invidual absen-
ces from important sessions that
ought really to be published for the
benefit of the constituency. The men
sent yearly to the capital to preserve
the interests of the people and foster
progress should be more punctual
and attentive and put in more hours
daily to that end. If there is ever a
time that men seem "only boys
grown tall" it is when they gather
to play around the capitol building
with the pretense of doing something
worth while. This is a woman speak
ing (not the one with the red hat.)

gent observers see good times ahead
Railroads seem to be the lambs
of our Government, and it remem-
bers the injunction Feed my lambs"
Recently, when the farmer was
practically bankrupt, dozens of banks
in the Northwest closing their doors.
etc. it was suggested that railroads
might reduce freight rates, at least on
farm products.
But with wheat going up, the In
terstate Commerce Commission says
the value of farm crops will increase
thousand million dollars this year.
Therefore, NO reduction in freight
rates.
The cream, off the top, must go to
the railroads.
Suppose the farmers, for a change,
are getting decent price for their
crops. The question involved is: Are
the railroads charging too much? not
what is the farm making.
Great and fashionable Trinity Pro-
testant Episcopal church, standing at
the top of Wall Street, publishes this
report:

Present assets of that little band
of followers of the lowly Nazarene,
-13,32o,053.
You note. Carried to renewal &C
count, $186,762."
The young man (see Matthew, 10Th
chapter) that "went away sorrowful'
after being. told, "Sell that thou hast
and give to the poor" probably sits
in Trinity's congregation, if there is
anything in the reincarnation theory.
Think of one Episcopalian church
keeping on hand thirteen millions of
undivided assets, while scores of the
Episcopa1ian clergy, miserab1y under
paid, struggle to make ends meet.

Voting Machine

Of course there has always been
one, fguratively speaking, but there
is a new one now, lately patented, of
actual service, automatic and rapid,
designed for parliamentary use. On
each members desk is a button that
when pressed, will register his vote at
theclerk's desk, by perforating card
and at the same time display on an
indicator board near the speakers
desk, a colored light opposite his
name, which is of readable size on an
alphabetical list, showing when and
how he voted Collective voting may
be taken by this method, thus con-
serving the time usually spent in roll
call and without the frequent errors
resulting from the oral method. This
machine was demonstrated before the
Georgia legislature recently.

There appear great Inconsistency
that our state and our legislature

Why should our state body ritter al
