Belief Is Absurd

The expectant mother is no eX-
ception 10 this rule. Yet how
rarely does it happen that her
baby shows any i'll effect which
might possibly be attributed to
her emotional disturbance.
Moreover, a few simple anatom-
ical facts will aid in showing how
absurd is the belief in maternal
impressions.
The only communication be
tween mother and baby is by way
Of the placenta and therefore it
would be only through this organ
that such impressions could be
conveyed. Yet there are no nerves
in the placenta to carry impulses
There Is not even any interchange
OF blood.
The blood OF the mother passing
through the placenta supplies the
nourishment which provides for
the growth Of the child. To sup
pose that the unhappy state OF
mind of the mother could be ex-
erted upon tie baby through the
food supply which she gives IL
would require a long stretch of
the Imagination
Another fact not generally
known Is that physical form Of the

If you want to hear a pianist who
writes his own jazz blues, you now
have a chance to hear one beat out
in splendid time two of his own
compositions.
The other day, Okeh sent me the
new piano record of Clarence vii
ians. Have had numerous requests
for piano jazz records. They seem
to be few and far between. The
classical numbers come in great
numbers, but just plain jazz on the
piano is not so frequent.
williams on this new Okeh plays
two Of his own, "Graver Street
Blues" and My Own Blues" Here
are two jazzy numbers done with a
touch that is not a bang. Williams
seems to put a classical touch into
his jazz theme.
OF the two numbers, like best
My Own Blues" At times in this
number Williams causes the piano to
sound like d banjo. For jazz

one if you are anxious for this kind
Of music in your homes.

MENTAL IMPRESSIONS
DO NOT AFFECT BABY
Belief That Unpleasant Exp erenceS Of Mother Affects

baby Is fixed within two months
after pregnancy has begun. So
that any harmful maternal infu-
ence would have to be exerted
previous to this time. Yet it is
usually late in the prenatal period
that the mother is disturbed by
such fears.
When one considers the rapid
multiplication of cells which oc
ours in the development of the
human embryo and the marvellous
differentiation into complex or
gans and tissues, the wonder is
that irregularities do not occur
more frequently.
Occur but Rarely
In the rare instances where they
do occur, they are in no way de
pendent upon the state of mind Of
the mother. It is true that one now
and then hears stories Of baby s
being marked where the mother has
a seemingly convincing explanation
for it.
Yet when so many others have
similar experiences without any
similar result the case which now
and then occurs can be fully ex-
planned on the grounds Of coinci-
dence.
What has been said above does
not mean that the state of mind of
the mother is altogether without
effect upon her baby. 1t is true that
she cannot influence the baby's de-
velopment directly but her own
physical we'll being is dependent at
least in some degree upon her men
tai condition.

happy frame Of mind, is careful

~7ERHAPS the most wide
- spread and persistent sup
erstition for the expectani
mother is that mental impressions
may influence the physical devel-
opment of her unborn child.
Her unpleasant experiences are
supposed to result in marking or
manning the baby. This belief has
caused so much anxiety that ~
should be frankly discussed.
In the first place, it is hard to
see how many babies would escape
if this belief had any real founda-
ton. for who in the course Of nine
months has not met with some
shocking experience or heard some
depressing news or been subjected
to acute mental anxiety of some
sort

Naming Certain Man
Would Force Campaign
Into Court, Says Reed

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July t.
From his sick bed here Monday, Sen
ator James A. Reed issued a state
ment in which he asserted that eff
a certain candidate" whose, name
is now before the Democratic ma
tional convention, is nominated for
the presidency, the Democratic party
will likely be compelled to conduct
it's campaign in a federal courtroom
defending it's candidate against Sc
rious criminal charges for violation
of federal statutes. He did not name
the candidate referred to.
Senator Reed dictated this state
ment:
"Of course, I do not know what
the convention will do, but 1 should
be greatly surprised if it should NOM
mate as a candidate for president
a man whom the Republican lead
ers in all probability are eagerly
waiting the opportunity to indict for
violating the federal statutes which
forbid federal employees and officers
appearing before departments with
in two years after their employment
to touch any matter or claim pend
ing during the time of their en-
ployment.
'"The facts do not seem to be in
dispute and should we nominate
such a man weare likely to conduct
our campaign in some federal court
room, defending our candidate
against serious criminal charge in
stead of being led by him in a great
battle to be fought out in the public
forum, where the Democratic party
would have the natural ADVANTAGES. ="

Greensboro Taking
Lively Interest in
Road Developments

GREENSBORO, Ga, July l.
Much interest is being manifested in
the proposed Ridge route from Ell
berton to Greensboro via Lexington
and Maxeys. This highway will go
from Anderson, S. c., to Elberton.
If it is secured from Elberton to
Greensboro, it is expected that
highway will be completed to Eaton
ton, joining the one to Gray and
Macon.
The highway can connect at
Greensboro with the Detroit-Jack-
sonville highway, the Atlanta-Au-
gusta highway, and the Greensboro
Eatonton road, thence to Macon.
An effort is being made to get Put
nam county to help in erecting
bridge at Reds ferry, connecting
the counties. 1t has been suggested
to build a memorial bridge, dedicat-
ing it to the boys of Green and Put
nam counties who fought and died
in the World war. An effort will
be made to secure federal aid on
this project. 1t is understood that
Greene county already has its half
of the money in the bank for the
erection of this bridge.
Greene county is taking a great
interest in it's highways. The coun-
ty commissioners are cooperating
with the state highway department
and the Greene county link of the
Atlanta Augusta highway is being
placed in excellent condition. The
road is being Strengthened and wild
ened from the Taliaferro county line
to the Morgan county line. The
road will be placed in wet-weather
condition. There are already several
miles of permanent road on this
highway.
Work is progressing on the Greene
county link of the Detroit-Jackson-
vile highway, which is State Route
No. Is. This highway is being top
soiled, widened and graded from
Watson Springs to Greensboro. From
Greensboro it will be put in first
class condition to Sparta. Already
two fine concrete bridges have been
built between Watson Springs and
Greensboro. The county commission
ers are using convict labor on the
project, aided by the government in
furnishing funds.

Peaches Bring Fine !.
Price in New York

MACON, Ca, July 1.-Georgia
peaches In New York yesterday
brought as high as $3.50 per crate,
which is the highest figure since
the first fruit of the season was put
on the market. This price was paid
for choice peaches. Some Of the
lower grades sold as low as 81 per
crate.
The Hiley Belle and the Georgia
Bellies will be put on the market in
q few days, and these varieties are
expected to bring from So per crate
up. Ttey always sell for a good
price. The Elhertas will follow and
some OF the No. 1 shipments are
expected to bring about the SIS per
crate mark
The ea,ly peaches did not bring
the revenue expected for the reason
that they did not measure up to
first-class qualifications. Most of the
shipments, however, netted owners
some p.ofit, although in some in
stances it was rather small The
growers expect to get the big profits
out of the crops shipped from now

NJ ADOO CANDIDACY
BOOSTED ON FLOOR
BY Al BERT WILSON
BY THEODORE TILLER

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,
New York, July 1.-Although not a
member OF the Georgia delegation
there is one Georgian here who is
working as hard for William G. Nc
Adoo's nomination as though he
were the McAdoo campaign man
ager. He is Albert Wilson, promi-
nent Albanian Of wide acquaintance,
who is moving, among the delegates
and putting in a boost all along the
line for McAdoo. Mr.. Wilson is en-
Enthusiastically doing his bit" in the
typical Georgia way. The Albanian
is popular with members of the
Georgia delegation and is practically
one of them.
Outside of members Of the Georgia
delegation, who have rather held the
center of the stage here because
they form a keystone of the McAdoo
stonewau battalion, other Georgians
have figured prominently in the con-
yention proceedings and in the news
of New York.
Before leaving for Washington,
from which point he will leave for
Georgia. Senator William J. Harris
was temporarily a presiding officer
over the Democratic convention. He
was called to the chair by Chairman

ficer.

Tammany-packed galleries. The

calling Mr., Smith the secretary to
Mr.. Randolph" but outside of that
the little story is all right, and re-
Elective of the feeling in the Geor-
gia outfit. Mr.. Smith says that ''the
Georgia delegation will never forget
the heckling ithas received from the
galleries in this convention, nor the
fact that at one time when it was
under attack the band played

connection with the oil scandals, the
band burst forth with 1.-THE Stars
and Stripes Forever" One of the
elder delegates suggested that
Down Went McGinty to the Bottom
of the Sea" would have been more
appropriate. But these modern
bands don't know many of the old
ditties.
The official stenographic reporters
of the convention welcomed the BAL
loting period with a great SCH of re-
lief The perfervid flow of oratory
which had marked the convention
from the opening session to the close
of the khan and anti-klan fight early
Sunday morning, had overworked
the shorthand men almost to the
point of exhaustion. The official re-
porters of a Democratic gathering
always dray a heavy task. One man
could have handled all the work a..

has required a young army.

He sought out the newspaper cor
respondents.

one, veteran Of many campaigns.
The fourth estate held it's breath
and expected to hear about a nomi-

how and when.

from over a scribes ear, and in a
professional manner wrote for a
moment. Then he issued this bull
letin
