Mention of the word education sug
fjestH to the ordinary man the thought
of Achools. There in a growing ten
dency to look to the State for the edu
cation of our children, to the church
for their moral t raining, and to the
community at large for their social
training, as well as their training in
business. This species of socialism j World
might be well enough if it did not serve
a* an excuse on the part of parents for
their course. Mr. Bryan had a moral
and political right to change his view
point and his attitude with reference
to the policy of this country in the
matters of disagreement between this
country and Germany, but he had no
right to place the entire responsibility
for that course upon President Wilson
and other members of the cabinet, and
to do all that he can to defeat a policy
, that has up to this time been also Mr.
' Bryan's policy.
A citizen's political convictions—even
the political convictions of such a para
gon as William J-nmngs Bryan—ought
to be surrendered, or at least held in
abeyance, when the nation faces a crisis
as grave as that which has grown out of
the tragic incidents of the past few
weeks. This is no time to quiDble
about unratified treaties of peace, or
terms of international arbitrament look
ing to a cessation of hostilities be
tween the warring nations of the Old

m the matter of education, as well as
in other things. This mental and moral
indolence is more of a peril to-day than
the hookworm or pellagra. And the
(schools themselves help to foster this
spirit among lazy, self-indulgent pa
rents. A mother was asked not long
since if she had taught her child, a
little girl under five years old, the
alphabet. “Teachers don't want chil
dren taught anything these dayB before
they are put in Bchool,'' was her
answer.
Any educational system that makes
home-teaching undesirable is itself un
desirable.
The home is a school. This ia so,
whether we wish it or not: and some
times one is disposed to think that
many amongst us would be glad if it
were not ao. The State itself, with
all its paternalistic etTorts to do the
work of unfortunate or indolent pa
rents, recognizes this as true, and
inakeB no provision for a child to enter
achool under ti years of age. And yet
a child at that age, if it is a normal
child, has learned to speak its mother
tongue.
What the child learns first it re-
mcml>erH longest. Since this is ho, no
years of a child's life are so important
in the matter of education as the years
before it can, under our present system,
enter school.
Much complaint is made by parents
these days about the amount of study
and preparation of lessons required of
children at home — which means, of
course, that the parent, especially the
mother, must give much attention to
the child, and much help. Without
entering into a discussion of any point
raised by this complaint, it is well
enough to remind fathers and mothers
that their whole duty is not done to
their children when they send them to
achool.
In these days of cheap books every
home should have a good library. Most
children will read if books that interest
them are placed within their reach.
And most children read something—
either the baseball news in the daily
papers, or. unfortunately, the news of
the latest killing, or some other crime.
Wherever it is practical — and it is
practical much oftener than we think-
parents should spend some time every
day in reading to their children. And
when the child itself can read, it
should be encouraged, if not required,
to read aloud to the parent.
In these days of clubs and societiea,
and the multiplying demands of social
functions of one sort and another,
there is danger that the children may
he too much neglected tor their own
good, and for the good of society.
UK VAX. THE IXCOMPREHBXSI-
BLE.
It is never pleasant to any save fault
finders nnd grumblers to refuse to ac
cept the explanation of any act or
course given by an individual, and to
find some other reason than that offered
for what ho has done. Most people in
this country regard Mr. Bryan as an
honest man, and something more than
a time-serving politician. The fact
that he has led the Democratic party
to defeat so many times is not in it
self proof that he is not sincere.
But it is not easy to understand why
Mf. Bryan left 1’resident Wilson's cab
inet at this time, and for the reasons he
gives for doing so.
The policy of this country toward
Germany, up to this time, has been
Mr. Bryan's policy, either by assent or
consent. He knew of the note sent to
Germany in February protesting against
the proposed submarine war zone. His
name was signed to the note sent to
Germany after the destruction of the
“Lusitania." If there has been any
thing warlike in the attitude of this
country toward Germany, those notes
indicated that attitude. And now
when a note is sent that is by all odds
the most friendly communication yet
forwarded to the Kaiser's government, is
ready to be signed and dispatched, Mr.
Bryan suddenly wakes up and becomes
alarmed at the bellicose trend of our
course and refuses to attach his signa
ture to the very harmless document,
timing his spectacular action so as to
create the impression that the United
States has virtually issued an ultima
tum to Germany.
Of course, wise men change their
minds, and conscientious men change

TURIN.
We regret to note the death of Mrs.
A. G. Drake, mother of Prof. B. M.
Drake, which occurred Sunday night,
after a brief illness The funeral was
held at the Methodist, church, services
being conducted by Rev. J. G. Davis,
after which the remains were laid to
rest in Tranquil cemetery. Deceased
was held in high esteem by all who
knew her, and her death is widely
lamented. Her husband preceded her
to the grave several years ago. We
extend condolence to the bereaved rela
tives.
Mrs. J. A. Cauthen, of Elberton. is
visiting her sister, Mrs. Gary Sum
mers, near Turin.

visiting the family of Rev. H. S. Rees.
She has been teaching in South Geor
gia for several months past, and is
now enjoying her vacation.
The small grain yield ’ throughout
this section has been very good, and
many families unaccustomed to this
luxury are fur the first time supplying
their tables with biscuit made or home-
raised flour. Incidentally, many good
dollars spent heretofore for Western-
made Hour are now kept at home.
What a foolish policy to try to get
along by raising cotton with which to
buy bread, when flour can be raised bo
cheaply at home! One of our farmers
is ao pleased with the change from all
cotton to the more sensible policy of
raising his supplies at home that he
intends to devote 160 acres to small
grain crops next year. If we had
many more such farmers the cry of
"hard times" would rarely be heard in
this part of the country.

Pitcher Nabors Establishes World’s
Record.
Elongated Jack Nabors, of Newnan,
burled himself into the baseball hall of
fame last Tuesday by bolding the
heavy-hitting Talladega team hitless
and scoreless in a hectic 13 inning
game. He not only held his opponents
hitless and runless throughout the en
tire thirteen innings, hut did n >t. issue
| a base on halls or hit a batsman. In
| fact, only 40 batsmen faced him during
the bull, and nojthe game, two if whom reached first
base on infield errors, and one of whom
was thrown out attempting to steal
second. This is a world's record in or
ganized baseball, and details of the
great event have been spread far and
wide by bulletins of tne Associated
Press. Nabors’ photograph, with ac
companying write-up of the game, will
appear in Sunday’s issue of the Bir
mingham Age-Herald and the Cincinnati
E’ quirer.
Tnis is a great advertisement for
Newnan, and our people should show
their appreciation hy a more liberal
patronage of the games. Attendance
has been very poor this season, and all
the time Newnan has had a corking
good team in the field. Manager Mat
thewB is giving our people real baseball
—the old inside stuff that wins—and
a large crowd should be out each day to
see the games. Newnan is now neck
and neck with Rome and Talladega arid
will be a strong contender for the pen
nant.

Griffin comes for a three-game series

Newnan. Ga.. June 12. 1915.
several elect
workers of the County Club-’l visited
the old Newnan jail building and was
surprised and delighted to find it trans
formed into a commodious, beautifully
arranged cl b house. The interior has
been completely renovated, the large,
airy rooms presenting a most pleasing
appearance. The first large room as
you enter will be used as a woman’s
exchange, where all tne beautiful and
useful articles that women, old and
young, delight to make can be dis
played and offered for sale. From the
exchange we entered the rest-room, de
signed especia'ly for the comfort and
convenience of all the women when vis
iting or shopping in Newnan. The club
extends a most cordial invitation to all
to come here, rest, and be "at home.”
This means everybody, from the oldest
to the youngest. Mrs. Shannon, the
matron, will reside in the building and
be ready to extend to all a hearty
greeting. On the second floor the club
nas a large, beautiful assembly-room,
with stage, dressing-room, and every
thing arranged for evening entertain
ments, plays and parties. The differ
ent clubs and women’s organizations
are especially invited to hold their meet
ings in the assembly-room. The club
women will continue the improvements
thus begun, painting the exterior, then
adding a spacious verandah, and when
the lawn has been leveled and planted,
».nd the artistic entrance has been com
pleted as planned, the "old jail” will
be a thing of the past and the woman’s
club house an ornament to the city.
We cannot say too much in commen
dation of the splendid work done by the
busy, active members of the club—es
pecially the loyal, capable president,
Mrs. "I. B. Hardaway, and her efficient
co-workers, Mrs. J. S. Powell, Mrs. I.
P. Bradley, and others.

the Chautauqua platform is a distinct
acquisition. He gives what the men of
this generation most need —popular in

and he gives it with eloquence and san
ity, assisted by a magnetic personality.
SECOND DAY.
A STAR FROM THE STAGE, CHARLES B.
HANFORD.
He takes his audience into the classic
dramas—the realm of tragedy, romance
and comedy. His record on the stage
ranks him with Robeson and Crane, Ed
win Booth and Lawrence Barrett, with
whom he played. He is as much at
home in “Malvolio” and “Marc Anto
ny” as he is with "Leonites” and
"Iago. ” Mr. Hanford’s breadth of
experience and strict devotion to his
art, added to a personality which nat
urally lends itself to the Shakespearean
roles, is an assurance of great success
on the chautauqua platform. He is
well-known as one of the greatest ac
tors on the American stage, and has
won for himself a multitude of friends
throughout the country.
THE MYSTERIOUS MILBURNS.
Gustave Milburn is a magician, and

the m nd and cheer the heart. What he
says is often quite as interesting as
what he does. Dexterity, suggestion,
mystery and humor make up a pro
gramme of irresistible fasemation.
THIRD DAY.
LYRIC GLEE CLUB, OF PHILADELPHIA.
Four fine fellows, and they are known
for their great voices, clean comedy,
and witty wisdom. From "The Old
Church Bell” to “Tipperary,” the pro-
5 ram me is full of charm. “Fun in An
Id-Fashioned School” is a bit of com
edy which carries the audience back to
the dear old yesterdays. Morning and
night the Lyrics give a big programme.
Sigley, the tenor, ha3 a voice of extra
ordinary sweetness. Williams, the sec
ond tenor, is not only a singer, but a
comedian. As “The German School
Master,” he distinguished himself as
an actor. Howard, baritone, is a pian
ist of ability. His piano selections al
ways attract attention from intelligent
lovers of music. Gorgas has a rich baas
voice of great range, and he uses it
with the eaBe of a trained singer.
