DEFECTIVE VISION IN CHILDREN. It is a matter of genera) r* . . that this feeling has cropped We hope it is only the one man w o s thus affected and that he will, af ter due deliberation, see the ‘folly of his way and come out into the means of proper diet or by the ; -evention of the infection, whatever its nature may be, and most effec tively by the combination of these methods. So many cases of pella gra have been discovered in the in sunshine of optimism, without bring-|eane hospitals of the United States ing that, dark and gloomy tinge j during the last few years, and it is pessimism, which has evidently be-I so difficult to control the diet of the clouded somewhat his capacity for | individual insane patient that it clearly and correctly judging matter* and things. We were in hopes that the paving would seem evident that measures to prevent any possible infection should not be neglected. If pella- taken in passing It as there was on the part of some men whose property might be paved, against it, it would have gone in by an overwhelming majority. But they didn’t do it, it is gone. We don't pave sidewalks this year, gentlemen and ladies, so you might as well walk on our per fectly sloppy, muddy sidewalks and r rubbers. RODDENBERY ON BATTLESHIPS. Be Sore, Then Go Ahead. The parents who believe every word the son or daughter tells in retard to their conduct at school, is at laaat half of the time misinform- Odf and are likely to do the teacher aa injustice, in their opinion If not la words. Be mre yon bare some thin to kkk about, before you kick ▼tile fTese. y The New York Herald recently carried interviews from Represen tatives Witherspoon, of Mississippi, and Roddenbery, of Georgia, on tne Naval Program, whisk is to be adopt ed as the policy of the Democrats. Congressman Roddenbery« views on that question are given i:. the following words: ”1 believe the United Stat. b »honld have a strong navy. I am not Ta- vor of trying to keep up with the other powers of the world, because I do not think we are going to have a war with any of them, but I t we should have a naval fore; is well proportioned and effeo our -needs. "Everybody knows, however, tea the battle ship question is undergo ing a great change. All over the world, naval experts are differing as to what is the best type of battle ship. Each year we build bigger ships, and by the time the ships au thorized two yers aio are completed, the whole idea of building battle ships may have changed and the so- called new ships will be out of date. In view of this fact, I am in fa vor of the Democratic party going slowly in this matter until a thor- gh inquiry can be made by the proper officials of the Navy Depart ment to fix upon a definite policy for the battle ships of the United States. I am willing that we build one new battle ship th.s year, but no more, until the result of this in quiry is made known. The new Democratic Secretary of the Navy will have ample opportunity to In stitute such an investigation and I sincerely hope he will do so and re port his conclusions to Congress. Perhaps an lnqiiir? will deter mine that we are building ships that are too large. 1 admit I do not know, but it seems strange to me that we should keep adding a few thou sand tons each year to our battle ships without trying to discover hat the ultimate size should be, and getting straight to that point. Is that common sehee? 'There never was a time whei could bette" afford to stoti and dy this question in a orient ifle There is no :n modiste dnn- • cf this corntry g*;tinj: into r with any great foreign power, immediate danger 1 mean not in ■ next ten or fifteen years. Let us pause and then, after making sure we are rijht, settle upon a fixed -olley and stick to It." Is i!io pellagrous patient, so that the necessity of preventing the spread of the infection by direct and indi rect means needs no emphasis. SENIORITY IN THE SENATE. ’The following telegram from the Hon. Hoke Smith. United States senator from Georgia, has been re ceived by the Macon News and printed In that paper. It is merely a word in explanation of the so-call ed "seniority question” and of the position of the progressives in that body: I wish to correct certain pub lications that have recently been made in Macon with refer- erence to the conference be tween Governor Wilson. Sena tor Gore and myself. •Neither Senator Gore nor my seif sought the co-operation of Governor Wilson in the modifi cation of the old seniority rule which has existed in the senate. We stated to tne governor that we did not think that he should In any way be connected with this movement, and I stated I felf su**e a satisfactory agreement would be reached among the senators on the sub ject. The statement jiven out by Governor Wilson with refer ence to this conference, the day on which it took place, express ly declared that we did not de sire him in/ol « r ed in the contro versy and tha' I believed It would be satisfactorily adjusted. It has been well known that the movement was not di rected against 3enntor Bacon, but that he sympathized with it and I have let it be well under stood that I participate in no movement, that did not support the election of .Senator Bacoi. as president pro tempore of the senate, and his election as chairman of the committee on. foreign affairs. Senator Bacon has been so uniformly consid erate and helpful to me in my senatorial work and we arc. in such perfect o-opuration in the discharge of our duties, that I regret any effort to create in Georgia a contrary impression.

Livens Up The Liv er and You Stay On Your Feet, THE CAUSE OF PELLAGRA. There are two views as to the cause of pellagra. According to one, pellagra, Is a disease cauied by an undue use of corn In the diet or by the use of spoiled corn. This view places pellagra in the same class with beriberi and scurvy. Accord ing to the other view, pellagra Is an Infectious dlaease, ths Infecting agent being as yet unknown. From POLICE INVESTIGATION. The City Fathers have complete ly exhonorated every policeman of tho city from any conduct unbecom ing an ofllier.
