many admiring comments. The
church organization was con
stituted August 9th 1847, and
lor many >ears services were
conducted in a large frame build
tug which stood on the site of

itie first sermon preached in the
new church, the pastor retcirea
feelingly to the many tender as

all the things mentioned above.
But it is not hard on a girl to
teach her at home what she is
obliged to know if she ever
makes a success of a home of
her own. If she has the work
to do herself, it wiil be a won
derful advantage to her, if she
knows how. If she is able to
employ servants, she will know
how to have the work done, and
will not be at the mercy of the
servant, as she would be, if she
did no: know. I hope the Solons
of Georgia will take this under
their consideration and will give
us a law that will prevent, in
this state, the marriage ot ignor
ant and incompetent children.

some restraining law, which was
not mentioned by the Governor,
and that is the marriage of child
ren.
As the home is the foundation
of all civilation, it should be the
work of the state to see that no
persons go into the business of
homemaking unless they have
some qualifications for that busi’
ness. Of course they should be
of the proper age, which accord
ing to my opinion should be at
least twenty-four years. How
ever, if other qualifications were
complid with, they might be al
lowed to marry younger. No
man should b? able to contract
a legal marriage in Georgia, who
cannot show satisfactory evi
dence that he has saved and has
deposited in some safe place at
least a hundred dollars, and that
he boarded himself while he was
making it. All will agree that
that sum is a very meager be
ginning for building a home, and
yet every day we see children
marrying where neither party
has a cent and sometimes they
go in d;bt Ur the license.
Other qualifications might be
required of the man who aspires
to become a benedict. He should
□ot only be able to make and
save money, but should be free
from bt*d habits, such as the use
of liquor, tobacco, etc.
No young woman, no matter
what her station in life, should
be the subject of legal maariage
in this state that cannot show
satisfactorily, that she can do
well and economically any work
that is necessary, in the ordinary
home. This would include cook
ing, wa&hing, ironing, milking,
churning, house cleaning and
keeping in order, and a great
variety of other things. She
should understand domestic econ
omy the most important of all,
'he sciences. Both parties should
have some knowledge of how to
get along with other people, a
subject that ought to be taught
in the common schools, as well
as in every home.
If these things were required
of aspirants’ to matrimony, there
would not be so many miserable
homes and so many ruined lives.
Some may think it would be
to hard on a. girl, to have to do
