THE POWER OF A NEW IDEA
BY Dr.. Frank Crane
4 NEW idea is a real contribution to life.
\ new idea stimulates us, fecundates

A NEW idea is a real contribution to life.
"A A new idea stimulates us, fecundates
the mind, sets the soul in new vistas,
and profoundly alters ones whole being.
The man who can give me a new idea has
put me under obligation. He has dropped
a seed in my garden and there's no knowing
what may be the fruit thereof. He has
smitten the dull rock Of my imagination
and fountain gushes forth
1t takes two to make a new idea-a
hearer and a speaker. l may go to book
full of great thoughts, but they pass before
my eye and find nothing in me-" And
then l may meet farmer and pass quarter
of hour and get from his shreWd talk
precisely the spark to explode my powder.
1t is curious how some people find you,
and others move always spiritually a stellar
distances from you. It is wholly a matter
of intellectual elective affinity and has moth
ing to do with literary taste; it is personal
matter l like Maeterlinck for the same
son that I like ham and eggs, and l do not
like Browning for the same reason I do not
like mutton. Yet l recognize the religious
and dietetic superiority Of mutton. But 1
don't like it.
Horace Bushnell has been to me well of
inspiration, yet l never could find anything
in Beecher. Far be it from me to make
literary criticism out Of what is a pure mat
ter of personal appetite
I adore Montague and Emerson and Thor
eau. All of these have upturned my life and
Hence my library goes on decreasing. l

given away my Tennyson; he is doubtless
great, but not for me. | have sold NV nice
row Of Balzac books for the same reason; it
may be blasphemy, but he bores me- On the
contrary, my soul leaped to Flaubert and

shattered and thrilled me.

Why Georgia Democrats
Should Subbort McAdoo

~ OR citizens to whom politics spells more
than self-interest the first consideration
In choosing a party leader Is principle,
and the second is expediency. The first
makes effort worth while, the second makes
1t count. The Journal believes that
on grounds both of principle and of
expediency Georgia Democrats, in their
forthcoming presidential primary, should
support William G. McAdoo. He is,
as we see 1t, the man who ought to be
} nominated by the national convention; and,
OF candidates now in the field, Is the only
one who can be nominated. Moreover, he is
the type or statesman tho for the nations
good ought to be It's next president; while
none of an illiberal or reactionary type would
\ leave Democracy so much fighting
chance against Republican intrenchments
II, then, we are to vote availingly, on March
10, next, and are not merely to toss our
ballots to the wind, it behooves us as
good citizens and discerning Democrats to re
member Mr.. McAdoo's qualifications
They commend him as highly In matters of
principle as in those of expediency. This is
not to say that every act and utterance of
his official career merits approval, for that
could not truly be said OF any civic leader
from the day of Moses down. Certain 1t Is
however, that William G. McAdoo has been
ever mindful of the national interests en-
trusted to him, ever attentive to the needs,
the rights and the reasonable hopes of the
rank and file, ever the steady thinker whose
ideals are sobered by business experience
and whose devotion is to practical justice.
These are the fundamentals of forward
going craftsmanship. Well aware we
are that certain interests hold it against
him that he is popular with great groups of
working people, with the breadwinners and
the bread producers. Had he courted their
good will by demagogic acts or words, he
would not deserve it and, what is equally
certain, he would speedily lose it. But when
he commands it by virtue of having stood for
fair deal for the humblest as we'll as the
mightiest, then Is his popularity credit to
his principles no less than to his politics.
William G. McAdoo is Liberal, not a
Reactionary. Those who imagine that De-
mocracy's best cue in the coming campaign
is to initiate Republican policy rather than
to challenge it, will find him wholly unsuited
to their plans. His belief could not be
stated more frankly or more effectively than
by himself in his long-to-be remembered ad-
dress in Atlanta on Friday last, when he was
heard by perhaps the greatest audience in
the ciys political annals. I'VE have
one reactionary party in America he
said "the Republican party. There is
not room for two. The Democratic
party must intexbly set its face to the fu-
ture and so render the greatest service that
can be rendered for the security of our insti-
buttons, Enlightened progress is the safe
guard against wild excursions into the field
of extreme and vague theories.
On this principle. first of all, William G

CHAPTER v
The Morning After


n n IRIAM had been less than a year in
vi New York, and she was already MAX
ing good. Her position as designer
with one of the large dress houses provided
her with an ample salary and she was ut
terly and entirely Independent. Seeking
place to spend her vacation, she had discov
cred Pine Notch, set in the midst OF the
Berkshire Hills. 1t was at the Pine Notch
Hotel that She had met Warren Holmes and
it was from there that they had set forth
that morning to this Out-of-the-Way place
fifty miles distant. OF course, she had not
dreamed of unpleasant consequences. She
was accustomed to doing as she liked and she
saw no harm in accepting Warren Holmes
invitation. But taking days trip with him
was one thing and remaining overnight in
this strange little inn was quite another
Miriam had learned early how perilous is
the way of the girl making her way alone.
She knew how important it was to observe
the conventions and alone in the tiny bed
room she was beset with doubts and fears.
That woman downstairs who had eyed her
SO suspiciously. What did She think? What
was going on in the mind of the hotel pro-
prietor? What would people say when she
returned to the hotel in the morning accom-.
panied by Warren Holmes? What would
they think when it became known that she
had spent the night alone with him? Of
course she could explain, but would they be-

man he might have made things very UNI
pleasant for me-" She tried to comfort her
self with this trend of thought. but it was
late before she finally dropped into trou-
bled sleep. 1t was light when she woke and
as she sprang to her feet and began to dress
hurriedly, she realized that her spirits were
lighter. Things did not look so dark as they
did last night, and it wasn't until she met
Warren Holmes down in the lobby that reali-
cation swept over her. He looked if he
had not slept, his dark regular features were
stern and set, but he spoke to her as though
nothing had happened, and Miriam answered
his greeting shyly.
If you can forego the pleasure Of break
fast, we make that early train" he told
her gravely. Wen be in Pine Notch shortly

any choice hit of scandal that might come
their way, Mr.. Maltbys wife, a typical New
Highlander, who had taken Miriam tentatively
under her wing. Well, she would have to
face it. she would have to walk into the Pine
Notch Hotel with her head held high, there
was no way out.
In silence she followed Warren Holmes
over to the station, and fifteen minutes later
they were on the train.

McAdoo appeals to The Journal as being
worthy OF the suffrage Of his native Georgia
and of his fellow Americans. Even were it
impossible to win the nomination or impos-
sibIe to win the election with that principle,
we still should prefer to go down with such
coors flying than to sail as a recreant.
But the fact Is that we can not win without
it. The rank and file OF the Democratic
party, despite some would-be bosses, is as
forward-minded now as when it nominated
Woodrow Wilson in 1912; and, unless all
omens fail, the final choice of the convention
at New York will be as decisive victory for
progress over reaction as was that at Balti-
more. Hence the forecast Of so competent
and impartial an observer as David Lawrence
that Hhe McAdoo forces are certain, If the
present trend continues, to control the con-
vention and to name the party's standard
bearer. This, on reflection, is seen to be
the policy of common sense acting upon the
obvious requirements of the political situa-
ton. For he.Democrats might as well nomi-
nate Coolidge himself as to pit a reactonary
against him. And by the same token Geor-
gia as we'll might abandon in advance all
hope Of influence In the national convention
as to cast in her lot with an unprogressive
cause.

port McAdoo the Liberal, McAdoo the
Leader. Only thus can we serve the best
interests of the commonwealth, the best in
terests of the party, the best interests of the
nation. Experience has taught the folly OF
diverting the states vote from practical
channels and constructive ends to political
eddies that run nowhither and vanish IN
foam. why repeat the futility of 1912, when
we turned away from Wilson and lost? Or
candidate who stood no chance to be nomi-
mated and so sacrificed our influence and
serviceableness in the convention?
There are two candidates in the coming
primary. One is a Georgian bred and born,
The circumstance that Mr.. McAdoo, son OF
Confederate veteran whose fortunes fell to
ashes in Sherman's red path to the sea,
reared within our borders, would not of itself
alone commend him to our suffrage; but
when coupled with his splendid achieve
ments, his historic services to America, and
his unequaed fitness for Democratic leader
ship today, 1t can but appeal, and appeal
nightly, to our hearts and to our heads
Not only Is he the one Georgian in the field
but he is also the one candidate Of national
consequence. In state after state "favorite
sons" have been advanced against him in
attempts to check his progress; but while
these are forgotten, after playing their little
parts, the McAdoo candidacy goes steadily
forward, looming ever larger in the CONT
nent's view. Let us, then, as Georgians, sup
port him, first, because he deserves to win;
and because, Furthermore, he only Of the can
didates in our primary stands a reasonable
chance to win either in the national conven-
ton or in the ensuing campaign. Let us cast
our votes for progress, and cast them so that
they will count.

MENTAL INFECTION
BY H. Addington Bruce

TT is always in order to call attention to
! truths which people, to their great peril,
frequently ignore. One such truth, of
vital Importance to everybody, is the neces-
sity of careful choosing of friends with
view to avoid mental infection.
Many seem curiously blind to the fact that
the adage Birds of a feather flock together"
has in the mental realm an equally valid cor
relate, "Flocking together makes birds OF a
feather" More men and women have gone
wrong a result OF mental infection from
unwisely chosen friends than from any other
single cause.
Again and again we see repeated the tragic
history Of the young man who, alert and
ambitious comes from village or small
town to seek his fortune in q large city.
Finding employment, he at the same time
finds himself in daily contact with a great
variety of associates.
High-spirited and energetic, he naturally
is attracted by the high-spirited and ener-
getic among these associates Soon he falls
into the habit OF keeping company particu-
larly with one or two. They are vivaCiouS,
genial, and on the surface eminently Iikeabe.
The young man from the country does not
look beneath the surface. He is flattered by
the attention shown him. He begins to spend
all his evenings with his new friends and
through them is introduced into a little
cOterie Of other lively young felloWs-who,
however have only liyeliness to recommend
them.
Little by Iittle-unless a happy chance
awakens him to his danger-mental infection
enters to alter his attitude to life and to spoil
his life prospects.
