6 BALKAN LEAGUE BROKEN:GREECE CONTINUES WAR Other Allies Sign Armistice and Peace Negotiations Will Begin Soon. VIENNA. Pee. 4 Tnat th. lontlu • ion of a general armistice without Greece marks the end of the Balkan league as a confederation, was one be lief expressed in official circles here today. Another opinion, however, was that Rottniania would take G )..■<< s place and the league would be contin ued. It develops that strong external pressure was brought upon Bulgaria by 'Russia. France and England to compel the conclusion of an armistice and be gin peace negotiations with Greece ex cluded, when it was seen that tin Greek -government would not subscribe to the conditions. If Greece continues the war, the scene of operations will thus probably be localized to Epirus. Turkey has al ready set her mill ary machinery in motion to continue hostilities with Greece. A Constantinople dispatch to Neu Frei Bresse states that a Turkish army will march to the relief of Janina, which is under siege by the Greeks, In a few days j» Russia and Austria At War, Says Report VIENNA. Det 4 -*A sensational re port that hostilities between Austria and Russia had broken out were cur rent here today. It was said that two fights had taken place between Austrian and Russian outposts near the German frontier The reports could not be traced, but they created much excitement. Greece Fears Turkish Tricks ATHENS, Dec 4—Greet. is prepar ing to continue the war against Turkey, despite the conclusion of the armistice on the part of her three Balkan allies. The Greek government professes to fear a trick on the part of the Turks. The Turks are noted for the strategy of their diplomacy and the Greek states men express the belief that Turkey is merely playing for time. Although Greece has the advantage of a navy fully as strong if not stronger than that of Turkey, her possessions are exposed to a number of different quar ters. Premier Vinezllos and Foreign Min ister Coromilas undoubtedly are trying to bridge the growing breach between Greece and Bulgaria, but their task is a difficult one. Nothing official has been learned of the reported fight between Greeks and Bulgarians at Sorres. where 250 Greeks were said to have been killed by li.nou Bulgarians. The story was not accept ed here as true. “Greece docs not wish to withdraw from the Balkan league.'' said Minister Coromilas. “In our opposition to the counsels of other members of the league we have been actuated by fiiendship. It must he admitted that a feeling of jealous) has been allowed to grow up. but it is not a feeling of hostility. Greece could hav' made favorable terms with Turkey by withdrawing from the league at the outset of the war, but we decided to throw our lot with our Balkan allies. We gave the use of our navy to the common cause, and In addition to harassing Turkey upon the high seas prevented the land ing of Asiatic troops at Chatalja. We expect our fair portion of the spoils of war in accordance with the common rules of justice, but wo must guard our Interests." Smallpox Scourge Hits Albania.

(Advt.) • —1 Faith, Hope, Charity, Should Lovingly Abide In Our Midst To the Editor of The Georgian: It was the dramatic and impressive Saul of Tarsus who said: ‘ And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.” Applied to religion, faith means a child-like acceptance of the Word as it is written; hope means the ever-flowing spring in the heart of man, that feeds the desire for eternal life ■ charity means that divine attribute which gives alms, yet is nobler than the alms-giver, in that it feels another’s woe, hides another’s fault, concedes another’s right of view, and beck on onward in its march to the mercy seat the soul that is weary and heavy-laden. The Pharisee can not exercise charity, for he thanks God ‘‘that he is not as other men are.” Applied to every-day thought, in civic upbuilding, that faith should be invoked which takes hold on existent life, and strives to use it for the betterment of the race of men, in a way that appeals to the normal view of looking at and dealing with things material;’ that hope should be encouraged which leads the citizen to believe in the community which bestows upon him the pleasures and the comforts of life, and to talk and write in such away as to attract desirable home-seekers and investors to the land that gives him these protective bene fits ; that charity should be cultivated which would build up civic co-operation so justly emi nent, so truly patriotic, and so strongly encompassing as to cause commercial and industrial competitors to applaud the wonderful economic results accomplished. Menacing mountains that muttered their supposedly impregnable strength 'gainst the prowess of progress have been leveled by this co-operative display, and the dirt and rock so acquired has been used to set wheels of industry in motion over the cosmos waste of yawn ing chasms. It is well. If there had been no engulfing chasms to defy, and no obstructing mountains to challenge the energies of activity, engineering would today be an unexplored science, and man would not now know how to climb and to conquer; motion would nap listlessly in the lap of Indolence, and achievement would stand still, as the inexorable census-taker looked . upon a Sahara of pillared inertia. The Bible is the book of wonder, and Paul gave to evolving thought an immortal sug gestion in the presented quotation from his letter to the people of Corinth. ’Tis true Solomon spake it more succinctly when he said, “How good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity”—but then Solomon was given to nigh cuts in wise sayings. How ever, both are from the Bible, and whether applied to spiritual or worldly existence, we know that when the precept is woven into example, souls are saved and cities are built. This spirit has done so much for Atlanta that it would seem treason to interrupt its abid ing presence. In applying Bible texts, therefore, to Atlanta’s moral needs, as these appear to highly wrought minds, good men should consider, lest they unwittingly misquote the Book, for purposes of convenient application. This would be unconscious blasphemy. Without desire to place a single obstacle in the way of righteous charity; with a heart full of applause for every unselfish contribution to all the organized charities of Atlanta, as well as those in contemplation, I desire to offer earnest protest against the comparative use of the name of the good woman of whom Christ said, ‘‘She hath done what she could,” with that of a scarlet woman in Atlanta, who has proffered a donation toward establishing a home for fallen women, of which it is proposed to make her the administrative head. The case that had to do with the woman of the Bible, was the occasion of the feast of the passover, when the chief priests and scribes were conspiring to put Christ to death. They were restrained from carrying out their purpose on the day of the feast, through fear that the people would riot. So, when Christ was in Bethany, ‘‘in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head. ‘‘And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made? ’ J ‘‘For it might have been sold for three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor And they murmured against her. “And Jesus said, let her alone; why trouble ye her? She hath wrought a good work on me. ‘‘For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good but me ye have not always. ’ “SHE HATH DONE WHAT SHE COULD: SHE IS COME AFOREHAND TO AN NOINT MY BODY TO THE BURYING.” Then Christ commanded that wherever the gospel should be preached, the beautiful and thoughtful love displayed by the woman of Bethany should be ‘‘spoken of for a memorial of her.” Thus it will be seen there is not the remotest analogy between the act of worshipful thoughtfulness at Bethany, on the part of a devoted follower of Jer -s, and the act of atonement, in the headquarters of the ‘‘Men and Religion Movement” in Atlanta, on the part of a scarlet woman, whose life had been spent in an atmosphere of evil. Let it be understood, I have not one word to say in harshness about the Atlanta example I do not believe that any man should publish harsh estimate ’gainst any woman, however fallen. Neither have Ito say aught in criticism of her proffered contribution. I defend a good woman, who annointed Christ for the burial, against comparison that injures her grace, her purity, her devotion. In the matter of more extended facilities for caring for charity subjects, I opine all our people are of one accord, insofar as the main object is concerned. “ The most serious question involved is to determine upon the best means to be adopted for reaping the desired results This is a practical question, which might be well trusted to the judgment of those now in active control of the organized charities of the city. There are now two homes for fallen women and girls: the Florence Crittenton and Harriet Hawkes. If these need to be extended would it not be more in keeping with practical promotion to give $7,500 toward making these homes stronger, than to adopt the doubtful policy of organizing a new home as a monument to a new convert? Administrative ability, training and temperament are necessary to successful manage ment, and the one in charge should be able to command the respect and confidence of all who may co-operate with her in the work, lest a good movement be lost in the quicksands of im practical path-finding. All work of reclamation should be carried on within an atmosphere of delicacy—in sneech In this connection I would congratulate those in charge of the bulletin work for the ‘ ‘Men and Religion Movement” for having so modified their English as to permit of the read ing of their moral homilies in comparative fireside safety. However, this thought- Whv were they so quick to administer to a fallen woman, and yet in a political campaign so eager to seize upon the mistakes of a prominent Atlantan, and to publish these mistakes to thl hurt 01 AilUniß. The impractical methods adopted by this movement to attain certain corrective results will in time bring about their own correction. Meanwhile, we must trust to the Divine nlan ning of things, and deal with them as conditions—not as theories plan ’ If there were no vice and crime in the world, court houses would represent wasteful structures of mud and stone; judges and lawyers would be as so many meaningless atoms in the vast realm of thought; organized society would be a senseless incubus on human relations the science of government would take its place in the undisturbed archives of forgotten aXs’ If there were no sin, the metalic call of the church bell would not be needed to ring chit man soulSvenwTrS ™ be " ° f the general plan to point If there were no faith, hope, charity, the world would he a of Divinity would be answered by the mocking echo of vacuity; Mercy would shriek farewell"' 55 ' th ' Vo ' C ’ Good and Evil are twin agencies in the plan of salvation; they ar. e o shop of Divinity, where Good stands before the loom of Faith, weaving iov and k? ’ the 9re , at work ' est fabrics: where Evil is struggling with the engine of Sin, to hold She rrivTte^n PP '" eSS J nt ° the choic ’ in motion, for the fitting investment of Charity. mysterious machinery of deeds That sin is to be with us until Time shall be no more, and that Gorf has D lannarl ie ♦( •» iu seem the part of wisdom to deal with it as a physician would treat disease »h * h Li S ' '* would tagious, and segregate the incurable contagious. oisease: cure the curable non-con- Our health department is busy with the work of preventing germ disr.mm=». safeguard the health of all the people, and it is commendably receiving the ° rde . r t 0 bet 2s r press of Atlanta.
