The best way to bring the human mind up from its infancy to revai manhood and womanhood is a prot lem yet unsolved. Wiiile this sub ject lias been under discussion by on wisest men and women for many years, yet, It has not been settled up on in any particular measure. It a subject which Contains a great deal Of deep thoughtJin fact deeper than the writer will overt be able 'oread However, as every oue has a right to express their own ideas about it 1 will say a few words relative to the matter. The mind is like the body in every sense of the word. If the body is not nourished with the various van elies of food it will perish. And t the mind does not have the opporum ity of partaking of the vat to.u branches of literature, for which all minds have more or less hunger, it will certainly, gradually go to naught. Even as the body is fed with meats, breads, etc., to make the person strong physically, so also feed the mind with such literature as would strengthen him mentally. A parent will send hi* child to school for not more than five montl s per year, during which time the teach er will stuff Ills mind with a few facts in geography, history, etc., and per haps that is all the nourishment the mind has during the whole year And tell me if you will what thing is it that can live by eating one diet live mouths and fasting seven in eac) year ? My friends, we are starving the human mind to death. Just think one moment and I believe you ;an very readily account for the weak minds of our land and countrv todav. Another important question is, With what kind of literature feed the mind ? Feed the mind upon a solid, firm and healthy literature ev en as you feed the body on solid, healthy food. A body that is hab ited to eating trash continues to grow weaker, and finally perishes; so it is with a mind that is given to reading trash—novels, etc. So deliver the mind from eating trash, even as you deliver the body. The next and last important point to remember is, “How to feed the mind.” Feed it regularly even as you feed the body regularly. My friends, if your ch'ldren are in school they need good books and papers to read. You know a healthy body, a strong body changes diet often, So also it is with the mind that has dif ferent kinds of food. Parents, buy your children good books to read if you wish that they be strong men tally. Hoping every one will give the matter a careful consideration and hasten to the development of the minds of the rising generation that the world may be brighter and there tore be happier and wiser, I remain, Lytle Gholson.

I said, “Well, to Savannah,” and off we started tor home. What do you reckon I had for my dinner while in Africa?—a boa con strictor. It made me jump when I thought of how I jumped ten feet high from him. This is like some boys and myself when we get hold of a billy goal. He does so many things that 1 can’t tell all. That’s “kinder” the way with my “Africa Trip.” Richard Bolton. The Missouri legislature has passed a compulsory education law. Other states will have to come to it after awhile. It is not a very popular doc trine, to be sure, on account of the false cry of “paternalism,” but com pulsory education is better than com pulsory ignorance—and there are thousands of children in Georgia who, under present conditions, are compelled to be ignorant. Compelled to go without uu education because they are forced to earn a living for themselves and sometimes for others, almost from the time they are weaned until the great In mercy closes over them. Compulsory education may be a form of paternalism, but there are conditions existing in Georgia, as well a in other southern states, to day tlia,t is the very essence of com mercial slavery.
