BRIGHT FUTURE FOR CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Athena is to, be congratulated on having attained
the goal in its Greater Chamber of Commerce drive.
Memberships, representing more than $10,000 in
dUes have been*obtained, thus insuring the chamber
adequate financial resources for the first time _ in
its history,.and, what is more important, bringing
ihto the organization 600 men and women who are
thoroughly aroused to Athens’ needs and imbued with
a determination to put Athens in the forefront of
enterprising southern cities.
But with the drive now over, only the foundation
of a Greater Chamber of Commerce has been laid;
the most important work is yet to be done, and now
is the'time to inaugurate the expansion program
whila interest and enthusiasm are still intense.
TherStore it is earnestly to be hoped that there will
bed'll arge turnout of the membership at the mass
meeting at Georgian HoteJ Friday night, when revi
sion of the constitution and by-laws will be under
taken; and when there will be group discussions of
the expansion program that is to be projected. All
the work that has been done in the drive will amount
t6' nothing without co-operative endeavor on the .part
of the members from now on. M
By signing the membership card, you have indicat
ed an'.earnest desire to aid in the unbuilding of
Athens. The next step is to give the Chamber of
Commerce the benefit of your advice relative to
various projects that should be undertaken; and
Whatever program is adopted, to £ive it your whole
hearted support.
The "hop off” will take place Friday night
Pont be a laggard, but make the start now; give
the dhamber the benefit of your advice in this discus
sion Of the program that is to be adopted.
‘ - QUICK THINKER?
Jf you drive ah auto, you’ve noticed that some peo
ple,-when in danger of being run over, jump more
quickly than others. At one end of the line is the
pedestrian who, caught in a tight corner of traffic, •
, has perfect control of himself; also the power of in
stantaneous decision. Th;at party knows exactly what
to do, makes up his mind quickly. The other ex
treme is the person who, suddenly trapped in a maze
■d at cdrs, loses his head and tries to jump in all direc
tions at once, so that the motorist hasn’t the slight
est ide^-which way to turn. \The speed with which
you are able to make up your mind, in emergency,
is what the brain students now call one’s “reaction
time.’’ How many seconds in your "reaction time”?
That,is, how long does it take to telegraph danger, or
the need of quick action, to you brain, then make
decision and start the body carrying out orders with
out faltering?
A‘government bulletin says; "Reaction ‘time is
the interval of time that elapses between the instant
a sign or signal is seen and the necessary action start
ed. A driver strfrts to pass another vehicle when sud
denly a third vehicle appears which may block his ‘
path. Ihe driver must decide whether to pass the ve
hicle or drop back. If his reaction time is slow he
may not realize the danger until too late to avert an
accident. -The reaction time of some people is very
slow-and undoubtedly is the cause of .many acci
dents. Does the public safety require that such peo
ple he denied drivers’ licenses? The Bureau of Pub
lic Roads is not yet ready to advocate such a policy,
but considers that it should be investigated as a pos
sible safety measure.” A very able suggestion. ‘Put
into -effqqti.it would eliminate at least a fourth of the
auto dmera-rand the same per cent of pedestrians.
■ determines your “reaction time”? What
makes one persoh quick to reach decision and act in
emergency, while another is slower? The answer
leads us back to the body’s endocrine glands, interest
.in which has lately been eclipsed by King Tut, Coue
pnd the Chaplin-Negri incident. The adrenal glands,
Attached to the kidneys, are the regulators of "re
action time.” They rally reserve energy . in emer
gency and telegraph through blood and nerves the
command to halt activity in all parts of the body ex
cept'the parts needed to extricate the body from the
emergency. Blood is rushed to speed up the muscles
needed “in a pinch.” .,
If you would unwind the long strips of cloth and
King Tut’s mummy, you’d find a black
papyrus from
and Bhriveled corpse more like a charred tar statue
than; the remains of a man. The popular notion,
about-the marvels of ancient Egyptian embalming, is
k nine-tenths bunk. Any modern undertaker, using
rthc best methods and fluids, can excel the embalmen
of King Tut’s time.
. Hindenburg, addressing a convention of German
cannon fodder, says: “If necessary we will fight
even until "the last flag is tom to pieces and the last
sword blade shattered. It is better to perish in hon
or than to live in. disgrace.” His gulUble audience
cheered, though deep in their hearts they knew that
Hindy would keep out of bullet range, the same as
he did in the World War. The ones who talk the
most about fighting, the, ones who rnrh their coun
try into war, rarely show up on the list of killed or
wounded. In Germany—or America.
