WHY LIFE IS SO CHEAP
The Governor of Georgia Is being
urged by many people in Atlanta, and
presumably elsewhere In tbe state, to
commute tbe death sentence of Frank
DuPre, tbe murderer of a Pinkerton
detective, is Atlanta last Christmas.
These appeals come to tbe Governor
after practically every other avenue of
escape bas been closed to tbe con
demned man.
This rase must be Judged on tbe
law and facts, not upon any false
sense of sympathy or mercy. DuPre
was a murderer, if any man ever was
He attempted to rob a Jewelry store,
shot down the detective that was pre
venting it and then serious wounded
an Atlanta official who attempted to
block his way as he was escaping. It
was only lucky for the comptroller of
tbe city of Atlanta that DuPre wasn’t
a double murderer.
The court gave hint a fair trial and
sentenced him to hang. This verdict
was upheld by tbe highest court In tbe
state and the Prison Commission re
fused to alter it. He was sentenced
to death and the Governor is now be
Ing appealed to do what? Merely and
solely to prevent tbe administration
of strict justice.
What bas made life so cheap In
Georgia? Any fool can answer tbe
question when he looks over the news
of continued homicides and compares
them with the records of our courts
ft is the most disgraceful and pitiable
condition that exists In this state to
day. We ore human, we err and wo
commit crime, but we are led to be
lieve from thousands of crime trials
that tbe slaying of man, the taking of
human life, Is rarely if ever punished
wltb tbe extreme sentence. Life Is
cheapened and a man naturally figure!

TRAINING THE BOY.
“Peed your boy w»ll and teach him
laughter and fair play,” is a state
ment which was made by a mother re
cently in answer to the question as to
the method, which she adopted for
making her boy a champion in some
form of sport.
The lady has told almost all the
truth, certainly the essential ele
ments of physical truth in its applica
tion to the well being of young men.
The boy that is taught to play fair bas
learned the first lesson taught by the
Golden Rule. He has adopted a creed
that will make him a real man, with
high ideals and lofty aspirations, not
merely 'because playing fair will
bring those things but because the
doctrine itself will lead him into
broader and more finished view of
life and will teach him the elemental
truths of godliness and right living.
How many mothers today can say;
that their boys will always play fair?
We do not know a single one who be
lieves that, who is worried about her
boy. If be will play fair he will be
without any vicious tendencies which
involve the well being or welfare of
another person, boy or girl. It is not
so much the sins we commit against
others of course that make ns bad
but sinning against nature and against
ourselves Is the medium through
which the way is opened to unfairness
in our relations with our fellowman
This boy bas been a success be
cause be was taught to be square. He
couldn't (be that and not be square
with himself as well as with bis
friends and acquaintances. Boys that
are taught to play get something fun-
damentally strong out of life. Those
that go further will leam well the
lesson of playing on tbe square all
ways and are tbe boys, whose minds
and hearts are fJt to carry an the
great work of salvaging the world
from the flesh and the devil

extent of granting extradition.

Catering To A Hot
Weather Appetite
People are usually fussy about their food In hot weather. They
have less appetite than usual. The housewife knows she can
not tempt the family palate with rich, heavy or highly seasoned
food; she must serve crlep, delicately flavored, cooling dishes.
Above alt, the food mutt be fresh; kept fresh In a wfll lead re
frigerator.
Milk and butter must be cold, the vegetables crisp, meats’ purity
thoroughly protected.
Using cracked Ice on the table makes a heap of difference. A
