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. i : The wholesale price of candy eaten by Americans in 1921 was about 314 million dollars, the Census Bu reau announces. < This was nearly a third less than in 1919, but more than twice as much as in 1914.
