FOR THE BENEFIT OF ILLITERATES Bill Introduced In Senate and House In Their Behalf—The .Church Organization Will Also Give Practical Aid. sion appointed by the state to consider feeble-minded population In Georgia. £• Dr. V. V. Anderson, the special;ex pert engaged to make the survey in Geor gia, is steadily accumulating important date in regard to the situation in this state, and just one instance cited by him proves the crying need for Institutional care of feebleminded children. Daring his investigation of the juvenile courts of the state, a young girl twelve years old was brought into the court on complaint of local authorities. It was found that her mother, who was without moral sense of any kind, had subjected the child to frightful conditions; and the girl herself exhibited tbe same lack of responsibility. In addition, she was in advanced stages of disease. Under the existing laws it Is possible to care for the child until she is cured of disease, but owing to lack of in stitutional facilities in/the state she will be turned back on society after the cure is affected. Further complications enter into the case by reason of tbe fact that a feeble minded pld man, old enough to be her father, claims ber as his wife. This man is also diseased, but the dinger exists of the child returning to him after ber re lease and becoming the mother of child ren, who, as has been proven, will al ways be feebleminded themselves when born of feebleminded parentage.

The first commission on Household Employment made Its report at the fifth national convention of the Young Women’s Christian Association held in Los Angeles, Cal., In May, 1915. The difficulties of attracting capable women to this field of work were laid to the long hours, lack of Independence^ In arranging recreation hours, lack or opportunities for growth and progress and lack ot social standing.

One of tbe most significant movements ot tbo times In this con nection Is that ot tbo Centenary of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, because that denomination wilt expend within the next five years over *3,000,000 among tbe uneducated classes In tbe Southern nnd Western States. The church Is to raise a fund of *35,000,000 lu au elght-dsy drive in April, tbe financial campaign being a part of the Centenary Celebration of the denomination. The money Is be ing raised with a view to putting the work of tho church on a business hula, tbe church conelderlng its duty to tho miUratee here In America to be among the matter* of first Importance which It should undertake. A survey hu bran made and the result ot the campaign will be tbe apportionment of **,000)000 among tbe various Illiterate population ax follows: Mountain pop ulation, $750,000; Immigrant, *109,000; negroes, *500,000; Indians, *150.000; cotton mill population, *150.000; Chris tian literature tor all ot them, *10*.000.

You know how the world stand* today and, the question is, how you can criticise" our sheriff for these thins* when the entire county ia guilty of these acts? Gentlemen, where can you get the jury and the judge capable of trying these cases? If you can I will put my foot on tbe Sheriff's neck and tell him we need him no longer. But wc know you cannot do it It seems that this brother wants to get down on the Sheriff pretty short But I feel towards the Sheriff myself that he is many votes stronger than he was before, providing he wants it, and I am pretty sure he does want it And that is not all; some of his friends who ho sclectH is going to get it IVell gentlemen, there is another ques tion I want to ask you. For these many years these pests have been coming on us and the thing has finally reached the place where a poor white man and a negro in on an equal, that neither one has a showing. All privileges htqe been taken away from ua and we have to do juat what the other man Mys; and, gentlemen, the time has come with me when I feel sore over these things be cause I am a tax-payer and bound by the county and state to do what they say do. Brother, here comes another consti tutional law which says that the ladies of the county and state shall say kind of laws we Khali have. Now, who is the lady that is going to vote in this thing? Here is my wife, 50 years old, and if I was to undertake to take her to the polls or I was to undertake t« carry her, it would bring trouble to my home and thousands more. So going to close on this and ask you peo ple to study on this and see what you think about it Hoping you will see this, as I do on the Woman Suffrage, Horn the Old County Coon.
