This attractive volume, just issued from the press, contains eleven ser mons by Dr. Len. G. Broughton, being, as the title indicates, discourses upon the teaching of the Savior, delivered while at table. In the preface the author says: “In studying the Table Talks of Jesus, I have been amazed that they compass such a range of subjects. Many of the most profound things Jesus ever said -were said while He w T as ‘at meat.’ I have gathered up these say ings and endeavored to expound them in a simple, but, as I trust, helpful way. My own soul has been greatly blessed in meditating on them, and I feel that I have learned new lessons concerning the opportunity of the ‘table.’ ” When one reflects upon the peculiarly helpful and personal nature of the Savior’s conversations with his disciples and others while they were eating, or gathered together upon like occasions, it is readily apparent that a series of sermons which link together these teachings are built upon the most vital issues affecting the life and conduct of all who seek to obey His commands, or who are seeking entrance into right living. These sermons are all simple, honest, plain and consecrated efforts to hold up to view the love and purpose of our Savior in the discourses which compose the texts. The reader is bound to feel in his heart the truths that are therein expounded, and the appeal to the common sense and reason is so fair, so earnest and so strong, it is impos sible to read without being benefited and rejoiced. Tastes differ, as all are aware, and human needs are diverse and urgent— but to the writer the fifth sermon, “Strength Blessing Weakness,” upon the passage describing the visit of Jesus to the house of the Pharisee, is fullest of the pure essence of the Word, and is richest in the kind of Gospel that can be carried into daily affairs and cherished for comfort in one’s heart of hearts. The reasons for Jesus’ expressions upon this occasion, and His pur pose in going into the house of the Pharisee are made clear, and are illumined by the wonderful and loving wisdom of the Nazarene. It concludes with this simple, but strong passage: “Let us be more considerate of other people. The world is watching us more at this point than at any other. Let us try to put ourselves in the other fellow’s place. It will make us much happier and our lives count for much more.” The book will be valued and will be a source of inspiration to all who read it. A SCHOOL FOR THE FEEBLE MINDED. An article in the April issue of The Georgian, the University of Georgia. Magazine, entitled, “A Square Deal,” by Clyde F. Colbert, is worthy of care ful reading and consideration by every citizen of Georgia. It is a plea for a state school for the feeble minded. In the premises of his argument, Mr. Colbert says: “I am glad that I do not live in the ‘good old times’ that we hear so much about. When a man is old, with tottering steps and mumbling words, instead of burning him at the stake for a wizard, now we take him to a hos pital for the insane where he can be treated, nursed and tenderly cared for; the time "was when deformed children were exposed and left to perish, but now they are gathered into hospitals; instead of considering it a disgrace to be akin to the deaf and blind and leaving them to die, now the dumb are taught to speak and the blind to read; and at last, but not in Georgia, the poor, so called idiot is welcomed into the human family. Be it to her shame, Georgia takes not any care of these! In the other commonwealths there are fourteen private and twenty state schools for the feeble minded; but Georgia, that ‘Grand old empire state of the South,’ simply lets her feeble minded children wander about as vagrants or unwitting tools of criminals. No citizen who neglects the interest of this class of our people should ever afterward refer proudly to ‘our grand old state!’ Ah! if you but knew it, this is one of the instances where Georgia is at the disgraceful end of the procession. When I read of the great work done for these people by the other states, or see some legislative acts giving them millions for their education, it seems to me that I can see those states derisively point at Georgia,—that ‘God-fearing, hu manity-loving, proud old Empire state of the South.’ The society of Georgia suffers the penalty of this neglect in an increase of pauperism and vice, and finally, at greatly increased cost, is compelled to take charge of adult imbe ciles in almshouses and hospitals; and of imbecile criminals in jails and prisons.” The main points made by the writer are that the mentally defective children of the state are as much entitled to official attention and education as are the blind and dumb, and that they can be made into useful citizens by proper training; and that society should protect itself from the criminal tendencies which are natural if these cases are left to work out their own destinies. He takes the position that “Our commonwealth should found and main tain a state school for the feeble minded. This school should contain dual departments; the educational for the high-grade students, and the custodial for the care of the hopeless grade of idiots and for the retention of those prisons.” The Golden Age for May 31, 1906.
