HODGES GEORGIA WEEKLY INDUSTRIAL REVIEW Thursday, Nov. 29. ♦HlS PAPEk REPRESENTED FOR HJKEIGn ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES The first shipment of Siberian butter to bo received in this coun try in several years recently ar rived at the port of New York The 3,000 tubs which mado up the importation were released for sale to the trade when examina tion by inspectors of t he Depart ment of Agriculture showed that the butter compiled with the United States legal standards. THE PHYSICIAN AND THE PREACHER The lost arts are the regret of the world. Before any nation now in being was a nation, men knew how to tnako edged tools of copjper and glass as malleable as modern gutta-percha. Such know! edge was lost in the dark ages But, happily for tho world, we seem to be npon tlio point of re gaining something better than the forgotten material troasures. It is only in eomparatlvoly mod ern times that there has been a di vorce between healing of the body and tho healing of the soul. From tho earliest records of human thonghb and experience there was complete twinship in the treat ment of the diseased spiritual and physical sides of man. Tho "sound mind in the sound body” of tho Romans was no more a new thought thant ho present day“New Thought 1 ’ or "Matriculature," or any other name that may be chos en to express tho thought that was exemplified in every action and teaching of Jobus Christ. 'J he axiomatic truth is that no man can be well in thought if ho is sick in body. Healing must be dual to bo worth a moments time and toil. Man from the beginning of time has been a trader. Ho gives wil lingly something for something. But he will not give something for nothing. The doctor who does not preach by his personality, as well as his words, the gospel of sunlight,fresh air, pure food and sanitation, is a barnacle upon his profession. Tho doctor so unimaginative that all his thoqgbts are shaped by icy formulae and proved material faots has no right at any bedside, how ever valuable might bo his work in the laboratory of the chemist or biologist. And so we consider tbo black garbed expounder of dole, gloom damnation, and the pulpitter who deals only with theology outside the scope of "human nature’s dai ly needs," unfit to bfc spiritual counselors of the people. It is because of these classes that more men than over before in the world’s^history are distrusting medicine and tho profession; and more ministers are asking, " Why do so few people go to church?" Dr. Worcester, of Boston answers frankly by Baying, "They don’t go because they feel that they are not suffering much loss by staying away." The twe professions were once one, and now as we come to realize that man is net merely an animal not yet a disembodied spirit, bnt that soul and body are knit in a mistic nnien, as we eomo to realize this truth, the two greatest of the professions mast again be friends and allies; the doctor must become more spiritual and the clergyman more scientific. The moremnet in this direction already under way, will be aeeept- •d as a long step toward that prac tic&l Christianity which the Mas ter preached sad practiced.—®x. j Secretary Hoover says there is practically no unemployment in the country.
