jfv J MARGOT ASQUITH’S WARNING ,
' Mr.-Charles Payson Pressly, former American con-
giil-to fcaris under Wilson, has given much thought
and study to the world’s problems and he has enjoyed
the fittest possible opportunities for forming his opin
ions. jpf all the voluminous works he has read on the
CCfcgu£ of Nations, he considers Mrs. Asquith’s Auto
biography the clearest exposition of that much mooted
question. He was forcibly struck with the way it is .
brought to a close, which he has taken the pains to
1 . „
copy and which is herewith presented. He says:
Itiin ‘‘Mrg. Asquith, in the concluding paragraphs
“"of Her Autobiography, offers the following sug-
,' gestaons to the distracted world:
n „ ‘The spirit of-war fs the spirit of conquest or
1 twinge, and both war and the preparations for
it blur vision as weeds choke growth. It is not
aijn the interests of the enemv. but in the interest-
11.of France, of England and of Europe that the
! -peace is universally damned today. Even since
'theiirth of Christ crowds clnmor for the wrong
Hiperson. If we had been nobly led into a clean
Peace, to quote my husband, the American peo
ple might have backed the League of Nations;
, out we joirted the clamor for Barabbas. The
! League was difficult to shout, and wanted both
Love and Treaty and diverted by the shouts of
the crowfd, lost sight of the silent Christ. He
1 paused to distinguish the names, and while he
was','listening his health broke, and he was re
pudiated by his own people.
’*>* "If Germany is not sufficiently punished for
having equipped a vast army for an unprovoked
..war, the mills of God grind exceedingly slow. It
was pride in their process that hardened . the
hearts and turned the heads of our enemy. Let
the Allies be careful lest love of themselves Or
' feariof the future'does not turn theirs also.
"There is only one antidote for vanity after
Victory, and that is to .remember God.

whether it be evil.’’

kttylng'ito cut the number of deaths from tuberculosis
here should not allow n recent announcement of the
L§iate Board of Health to slacken their efforts. The
State Board will sutamit to the next legislature a plan
“ uoc
to
Tor an enlarged tuberculosis sanitarium at Alto
igost 9500,000.
The present sanitarium at Alto is inadequate. It
Is too.pmall, we'hnve been informed, to even handle
tiie patients in this county who hive advanced to a
stage where they should be placed under tiie, cop-
stunt direction of a tuberculosis nurse. Therefore,
the iilan to build a new and larger sanitarium and
convert the present building to use of'negro victims
of the malady is no doubt the right step.
However, it is probable that the ^legislature will not
have the money to appropriate this year and if it does
it will be at least two years before the sanitarium
■will he complete and ready for use. During this
time efforts to decrease the tuberculosis death rate
in Clarke should not be halted op slackened by the
Board of Health’s annouiteement.
. One phase of the Boarcfs plan ic to Require each
county to pay toward building the aanitarium accord
ing to the death rate from the disease. From this
standpoint, if from no other Clarke county ahould con
tinue iln work, recently began, to decrease the rate as
much 'is possible. It will not only save money in the
end. but greatcy than all other cadres spare the fife
of many a mother’s child.
The county tuberculosis nurse should be kept here
as long as Athenians and our friendB in the county are
able to defray her expenses and we cannot afford to
stop tni: work until the county is free of this plague.

JNothing would kill current prosperity quicker
nan a too rapid advance in prices. Get a runaway
markqt, with prices jumping out of reasonable'
bounds, and the stage would be set for another period
of depression. . Business men, fearing another buy
ers’ strike, seem to realize this.. Wholesale prices of
327 h ading commodities advanced only a trifle dur
ing March. Now they aire only 60 per cent (throe-
fifths higher than they wOre in 1913. *

recorded that the Egyptian embalmers, “wheh a body
it- brought to them, show the bearers various models

date. A large part of the sales have
