’ BARE PICTURES AND A “BEAR’’
PUBLIC
Editor J. F. Shannon, of the Com
merce News, who is a splendid pillar
in the Methodist church of Georgia,
writes a striking editorial on “those
Jacksonville bathing beauties,”
ing The Leader-Tribune’s recent
comment. Editor Shannon says in
part: “It looks like conditions are
fast headed for the limit. The one
piece suit has fed the ravenous sala¬
cious sensual desire of the youth of
the land until it does not satisfy.”
He goes on to tell of frightful ex¬
tremes to which some bathers have
gone, and continues: “Certain At¬
lanta papers have subjected them¬
selves to the ridicule of all good
people by filling page after page of
young women scantily attired. And
these young women might just as
well be told what decent people think
of them and the papers might just
as well be put on notice that decent
people will not tolerate such a policy.
It is high time to call a halt. The pul¬
pit and the press are safety valves
of decency and good morals and it
is time for both of these to speak out
in no uncertain tones.” We are
afraid, Brother Shannon, that most
of our so called “decent people”
largely swell the circulations of
newspapers which publish such pic¬
tures and just naturally eat ’em up
on Sunday mornings.

GLORIOUS SCHOOL DAYS
There is song in the hearts of our
cheerful boys and girls, and proud
smiles adorn the faces of our parents,
for we have entered the golden
threshold of Autumn with the arrival
of “readin’, writin’ and ’rithmetic,
taught to the tune of a hick’ry stick.”
Except there is less hickory in the
hands and more of the soundness of
hickory in the efficiency of our
schools today—not meaning to ar¬
gue the point that we might fare bet¬
ter with a little more of the old
fashioned hickory stick and white
pine paddle, of course. But that is
a point which, if applied at all, must
be applied to parents as much as to
teachers. Home discipline is a pri-

push forward with the enlargement
