WHERE IS YOUR WANDERING
GIRL TONIGHT?
'Commerce (On.) News.
Christian people were wont to Hing:
“Where Ih My Wandering Boy To
night?” nnd it is well tlmt pnrontn Hing,
■think, nnd even pmy about their “wan-
• dering boy.” For when n boy Rots nbout
10 lie begins to think he is “somo pun-
klns.” It is nt this period that ho fills
bis sack with wild ontH nnd bnglnsto now
them. In otlior yonrs the girl lias been
considered snfo, but now no longer so,
•for the wandering girl lins of Into joined
'hands with tho wnndcring boy, and they
•are roaming side by side, both engaged
in sowing wild onts.
That person nnist bo blind who can
not see somo of the questionable things
that nro going on in these modern times,
A half century ago u grand jury would
never have thought of considering such
matters in their prosontmenw; but bo
alarming hove become conditions that ft
recent Georgia grand jury included in
its recommendations suggestions to save
tho girls of today from utter disgrace
and ruin. This wns tho grand jury of
Fulton county, in session Inst week In
Atlanta. In their goneral presentments
appears the following:
“Indictments nnd lines, nnd oven
tlmingiing sentences, will not regenerate
the lives of people. The time Ims come
when your grand jury feels that, if our
civilization is to bo preserved, it is nec
essary to nsk ttie people to re establish
in their homes the old-fashioned family
allur. Mothers are urged to insist tlmt
their daughters dress within tho bounds
of modesty end common doconcy when
they appear in public. We beg that pn-
routs and citizens ‘stop, look and listen
ami give attention to these suggestions
and to the solving of tlinsu momentous
problems, the proper solution of which
is so important to society.”
This grand jury, which has mmlo a
sweeping investigation into nllnged whis
key nnd vice eondilions in Atlanta nnd
Fulton county, waves the danger flng
to |mreels ns n result of its probe, Tho
jurors stnlo that morals cannot bo log-
istutod into people, and tlmt the schools
and churches can only assist in a small
wny in solving this problem, which in
the end must bo hnndlcd in tho homes
of the people nnd by the parents them
selves.
“The problem of improving tho morals
of tho coining generation, ns wo see it,
Is at tho bottom of some of tho prob
lems tlmt. lmvo boon presented to thin
grand jury. Wo bcliovo that this prob
lem, which Cali only lie solved whon the
mothers nnd fathers exorcise tlioir au
thority ns parents nnd control tlioir
daughters in tho old-fusliioucd way. It
is not a long stop to utter destruction of
chnrsctor and hor good nnmo whon n
young giri is allowed to go riding nt
night ttnehuporonod in nn automobile
with a young man. Wo keliovo it is
time for every pnront to come to n
realization of tho conditions that lmvo
obtained in our city and county, as evi
denced by facts presented to tho present
grand jury during its deliberations. ”
So it has come to pass that conditions
lmvo become so intolerable, the standard
«f morals so lowered, that it tins become
aeeessary for grand juries to sound a
note of warning to parents nnd to sug
gest that the old-time family altar, which
is now almost a tiling of tho past, bo ro-
viwiit. So intolerable have bocomo con-
dftioiiH that ft grand jury fools it incum
bent upon thorn to warn mothors ns to
th* effect of modern dress, nnd of the
iroH-kiiown dangers their daughters in
jur hi taking night rides with young men
*/» automobiles. And yet we are told
nlist the people of this age are getting
[better, ttj may be suggested tlmt tho
icondittons mentioned cxlHt in Atlanta.
So they do. But wo do not lmvo to go to
Atlanta to find similar conditions. We
have them right hero at home. Every
smell town Ims them. Wo have tho mod-
,r.rn dress—not the- extremes now allow-
,ed in Savannah, whore young women
walk ttie streets nnd take rides in au
tomobiles attired only in bathing suits.
But wo have the modern- dress, nnd the
• modern night rides in automobiles, with
the same attendant dangers nnd fearful
results that nro described in Atlanta.
We tin not want to reflect on Commerce,
for it is our town, and onr homo, amt we
love our people. As a wholo, there are
so better people on earth than we lmvo
tight here in Commerce. And there is
not n bettor town in Georgia than Com
nieree.' and immoral tendencies and prno
tie** lire as few ami far between here
as in any rural town; but the fact re
wthis that young girls are taking dan
gerous risks even In Commerce by Ink
u*B night automobile rides witli young
sion, nnd if wo were to publish some of
tho consequences of these night rules
we tu*w of pious mothers would nimost
loso their mental balance. Knowing
these things ns wo do, wo feel it our
duty to sound n note of warning. There
nro pitfalls and precipices, nnd heart-
aches, and homes doomed to irreparable
• dfr-graue, if care is not exercised. The
poorest eltiss among u« may be immoral,
hut this is not the class that allow their
• daughters to take night rides with dan
l Serous young men. And it might stag
E»c belief if we only knew how few
young men enu trust oven themselves
under certain conditions. It’s time . to
«ry alottd from the housetops. This is a
modern and progressive age, but wo will
never improve on tho customs and poli
ties of our forefathers.
CONGRESSMAN WRIGHT IN CO
LUMBUS.
Columbus Enquirer-Sun, 28tli inn!.
Because the Republicans bnve not re
deemed’tlioir campaign pledges nnd pass
ed the laws badly needed by the country,
the O. O. 1*. Congress Ims proved n fail
ure, nnd unless there is n great improve
ment in the situation u Democrntic
House will lie elected next year, accord
ing to Representative W. C. Wright.
Congressman Wright expects n Demo
cratic. victory at the polls when the next
President is elected.
“Tho Republican, ” stated Mr.
Wright, “have not relieved the tax-bur
dened people of the country us they said
they would, A tax revision bill Ims
passed the House, but Ims not been
adopted by the Senate. The provisions
of the measure will aid the North nnd
the big interests, but will be of practi
cally no assistance to the people of the
South. A tariff bill lias also been pass
ed by tho House, but in nil probnbllity
will not puss the Sonnto before next
year.”
The two best laws passed by Congress
during this session, nccording to the
Fourth Georgia District Itcpresontnti'V,
is the on? providing $25,000,000 for the
Form Loan Banks nnd the meusurc giv
ing the Wnr Finance Bonrd authority
to nmko nvnihihlo a billion dollars or
exports. These bills, said Mr. Wrignt,
were passed by the Southern Democrats
mid tho Western Rcpublicnnn without
the nid of the old-line G. O. P.
“A good ronds appropriation menH
are, promised by the Republicans,” said
Mr. Wright, “Ims not been passed, nnd
they lmvo not given relief to the trails
portntion situation. ”
Mr. Wright Hind the transportation
rates nro too high. Ho further said that
lie Imd Introduced n bill in the House,
now pending, which would restore the
old rates in effect, before the railroads
were returned to their owners.
“There is n slow improvement in bus
i ness, ” stated Congressman Wrignt.
“The udvanco in tho price of cotton is
due to tho crop sliortngo and tho law
which aids exports. There is more -ic
tivity nnd life in Columbus than any
other city in Goorgin,” continued Mr.
Wright. “Columbus seems to have felt
the depression less than any other inly
in this section.”
He attributes the prosperity bore to
■'amp Bcnning. It will be remomho.'i
tlmt the estnblisment of tho locnl j-.st
was aided to a groat extent by the ef
forts of Mr. Wright in Washington. Ho
Hiiid Inst night tlmt though appropria
tions nro Imrd to secure nt this particu
lar time, ho was confident of socuriug
moro money for the maintenance of
Camp Benning. Tho camp is considered
In Washington one of tlio most merito
rious projocts in tlio army," lie said.
Congressman Wright expressed Ids pleas
ure nt being in Columbus, nftor having
been kopt many months in Washington,
lie will remain lioro throughout tlio day
and return to the city Friday night to

In the old-fashioned school tlio teacher
felt she Imd no particular responsibility
for the children nt recess and playtime,
provided the youngsters did not got to
fighting or commit acts of mischief.
Now the wise teacher realizes that play,
time is a period when character develops
faster than- in school hours. . Mirny bash
ful and sensitive children used to stand
aside during play hours, lacking the initi
ative to |?et in and rough it with the otli

ibis abstention nor the results it brings.
