Standards of Delicacy
Should Obtain Alway
In Our Midst
To the Editor of The Georgian:
The standard to which generations of our people have reverently
bended the knee, the cause of virtuous righteousness, is not being ele
vated or strengthened by the broad, salacious suggestions that find
their way, periodically, into the public prints of Atlanta, from the
pen of a committee of zealots.
Nor is material Atlanta being helped by this wave of madness,
which advertises, in the extravagance of vice vernacular, sins, com
mon to all cities in all lands, in such away as to make it appear,
that a crusade against vice were needed, for ATLANTA’S special ele
vation in the eyes of the decent world.
There can be no discussion amongst any class of men, as to the
binding obligation of the Law--the law ’gainst crime and immorality;
the law 'gainst wrong and injustice; the law ’gainst hypocrisy and
Pharisaical pretense.
I would supplement this presentment by solemnly invoking a
law—written and unwritten—-for the protection of the firesides in our
midst, ’gainst the moral miasma, that today arises to offend the at
mosphere of discussion, on account of the thoughtless uncovering of
the doings in the underworld, by a club of hysterical reformers.
Why should this be?
Must Atlanta adopt every fad of reform that is spawned in
cities, made up largely of alien people, merely because some well
salaried agitator, with sanctimonious tongue, comes into her midst,
on an obtrusive campaign of publicity correction?
Must the people of Atlanta be compelled to eat from every can
of reform that is opened, however questionable the taste of its con
tents?
Whither are we drifting?
These misguided men erf the so-called “religion movement” have
already advertised Atlanta to the world, as a city reeking in moral
filth, and honey combed with hidden crime—injuring her status in
moral estimate beyond compare, hurting her financial future to an
incalculable degree; embarrassing her civic pride in an unspeakable
sense.
AND THEY TELL US THAT THEIR BULLETINS WILL
CONTINUE.
Why? Because a few well-meaning zealots, having nothing else
to engage the doubtful chords which feed their brains, have deter
mined, in an immature moment, upon an attempt to do that which has
baffled the best thought of the ages: free Atlanta of a sociological
condition that has existed under every method of suppression and
correction known to the student, since society was organized.
The universality of this particular sin was recognized by Christ,
on that notable occasion when the Pharisees brought an unfortunate
woman into the Temple to be by Him condemned.
When, after looking into the self-righteous faces of those wait
ing hypocrites, then upon the fear-stricken face of the poor condemn
ed woman Christ said: “He that is without sin amongst you, let him
first cast a stone at her,” it is declared that all the accusers left the
Temple, and, further, that the oldest one in the gang led the proces
sion.
It was a crushing blow to persecution.
It broke up an insidious conspiracy—and it presented a great les
son of sanity and charity to unborn generations of menWHO
THINK.
Under the scourge of that condemnation, the modern Pharisee
must, today, turn his heels and join the procession that started two
thousand years ago.
Far be it from my purpose to accuse any man.
I merely present the lesson which Christ, in His wisdom, gave
to the world for the consideration of men who love Atlanta in a nor
mal way.
To them who have been so free with the pen of condemnation of
men who differ as to the method of correction proposed, I commend
another immortal saying of Christ:
“Judge not, and ye shall not be judged; condemn not, and ye shall
not be condemned; forgive, and ye shall be forgiven; with the same
measure that ye mete, withal it shall be measured to you again.”
Advertising the vice of Atlanta may give mistaken comfort to
the conscience of the Puritan, but it does not correct the vice and
it surely does not strengthen purity to thus photograph vice to the
inspection of the innocent.
The law of suggestion is linked inseparably with the law of na
ture; the more impressionable and unsuspecting the mind the more
dangerously near her fall is Innocence, fed daily upon the broad
discussion of doings that belong to the underworld.
“Vice is a monster of so frightful mien,
As to be hated, is but to be seen;
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.”
The eyes see through the brain; the brain is impressed by what
the eyes read; the soul is influenced by suggestions of the brain.
That which can not be discussed about the fireside should not be
served as the daily mental diet of the home.
The result inevitable—moral jaundice.
