YOUNO MEN AT CHURCH.
Wo observe that in that excel¬
lent magazine, tho Comnopolotan,
Mr. Edward Bok, editor of the
Ladies’ Homo Journal, discusses
church going on tho part of young
men and offers a solution of the
,
problem why so many young men
absent themselves from divine
Sunday services. Mr. Bok, after
viewing the mutter from what he
assumes to bo the preacher's
standpoint, turns upon the miti-
inters and tells them that they
and ! not tho young men are to
blame that they no not inter -s u *
J
tho voting * h men and that in short 1
■> ’
... , . ,,
ue ci pted. There are a great many
very abb- men, dear reasonors and
gifted orators among the clergy,
and almost every .Sunday these
men J ,n-adi sermons that might
attract aud interest even the
young men as Mr. Bok has pie¬
tureil them—young men who feed
upon highly intellectual food, and
who will not go to table unless
♦*v< •rything is to their liking. On
the other hand there nro some
weak and uninteresting preachers;
but as a class tho preachers are
quite as capable as any other of
interesting and instructing the
public.
Dissenting from Mr. Bek's
view, v.o yi t do not offer in its
stead any other theory, but we
know this: church going is large¬
ly a matter of habit. The young
man who ns a child was regularly
taken to church may frequently
give up the custom when ho be¬
comes in his opinion “his own
master,” but in the majority of
instances ho does not. When lie
does if is generally because ho has
permitted other things to stand in
the way and to divert !uh inter¬
est. He thus forms new habits;
they dominate him, and tho fact
that lie is no longer a regular
church attendant is hardly to be
accounted for on the ground that
the tpinisU i’s sermons ran him
off.
Wo are not sure, moreover, that
Mr. B<>k ia correct in tho conclu¬
sion that tho young men as a rule
do not attend church. The larger
cities and the towns of Georgia
may very reasonably bo taken as
fair samples of those in other
States hh to church attendance on
the part, of young men, and in
Macon, Atlanta and the other
populous cities as well as in tho
towns of this State, then* is as a
general thing a very fair atten¬
dance of young men at church
as compared with that of young
women and of older men and wo¬
does not bear out Mr. Bok’s I
men
statement, nor does it justify his
alarm. In the towns lazy habits
keep a good many young men
away from Sunday preaching, and
in the large cities .Saturday night
orgies tuul dissipations make it
inconvenient for many to attend
prenching next day, but in the
country probably tho young
make n better and more
nttendnnee than any other class.
hiking tho attmulaucii of the
young men at an average, Ihere-
fore, It would hardly make a wry
di son nil table showing.
Mr. ft-Mowm,.
.. wry iiit.-mstii.K .nl.jcwl, ami h.-
discusses it in a very interesting
wav. He may not be right in his
primary statement, or in the the-
ories bv which he attempts to ex-
plain it. but it has to be admitted
that there could be an an pro vi
nmnt all along tho lino in church
attendance, and we hope the gen¬
eral discussion that is now
will bring about some improve-j
ment.

good deal m this, and in that view
there is considerable extenuation
for the course ta’.en by the peo-
plo.
This entire case emphasizes the
fact that the crime referred to
will not bo tolerated in Georgig.
It emphasizes it more strongly
than if she victim of the lynching
had been legally hanged. It serves
notice that there is no power that
can prevent lynching for rape,
and very likely it is this certainty
that reduces tho number of offen-
sos in this branch of crime, though
ns it is the number is surprisingly
great.

There is still more to come from the
growth of grass. Georgia now pars ~.n
! average of .000,000 annually for hor-
ses and mu.es. It requires grass to
make horses and mules. Georgia grass
ought to raise all the horses and males

other states that prefer to grow 5-cent
cotton rather than grass. This is es¬
pecially without cai\., truo, labor since the concern. grass grows

Again, our surplus grass will make
mutton and wool. When our farmers
