RAISE SALOON AGE
FROM 21 TO 21
Recorder Broyles Is In favor of rais
ing the age limit, at which men may
enter saloons, from 21 to 71 years.
The recorder gave expression to such
a sentiment Tuesday morning In police
court during the trial of a negro minor,
who had been arrested for entering a
saloon. After hearing the evidence,
Judge.Broyles Imposed a fins on the
negro and remarked:
"You must learn that you cannot en
ter a saloon until you are 2 V years of
age. And I think the law should make
It so a man could not go Into a saloon
until he Is 71. This would be early
enough."
This declaration caused the specta
tors to start with surprise.
The recorder also took occasion dur
ing the morning session to deliver a
lecture on "Blue Monday," In which
he sought to Impress on the negroes
present that Monday Is not a legal iiot-
Iduy, but that they are expected to
work on this date as well ns any other
day In the week.
Several negroes were before the court
for lldllng on Monday, the officers stat
ing that It was difficult to get negroes
to work on "Blue Monday." In fining
the negroes Judge Broyles said:
"I want you people to understand one
thing and that Is that you must work
on Mondays Just the same as any other
day. There Is entirely too much Idle
ness bn Monday. This day Is not a le
gal holiday and Is not recognised as
such by this court."

Library.
Atlanta Is growing rapidly. Its pop
ulation Is Increasing, Its ground Is be
coming more valuable each year and
will continue to Increaae In value. Now
Is the opportune time for the dtlxena
of Atlanta to take action. Delay
meana greater expense from a finan
cial standpoint, besides an Imperfect
accomplishment of the work necessary.
Parks are needed for the health of
the city, for recreation, to purify the
air and give breathing space In the
hot summer months. They beautify
the city, add to the enjoyment of life,
lessen disease and. indirectly, crime.
Parks and playgrounds are essential
for the physical, mental and moral de
velopment of the children.
It Is the duty of the city to furnish
such places for the proper growth and
develorniont of the children. The best
Interests of the children and the city
demand It. Children reared In the city
need more of nature's tonic, fresh lr
and sunshine, because of their sur
roundings and, environment
A city without parks, without play,
grounds for children, without influx of
new, vigorous Ilfs from the country Is
doomed to disease and degeneration.
The children of one generation are the
cltlsena of the next and a city that
does not prepare for the proper de
velopment of the children will have a
diseased, degenerate claes of cltlsena.
We owe It to ourselves, our children,
the city and the community to see that
every means at our command Is util
ized for the proper development of the
children and the city. Anything that ia
short of this Is duty left undone.
A united effort on the part of the
cltlsens, the board of health, park
board, board of education and public
schools would Bonn give us a system
of parks and playgrounds that would
be of Incalculable value to the children
and to the health and growth of the
city. It would be a very eaay matter to
enlarge and beautify the school grounds
and keep them open aa playgrounds
during the summer months. The
board of education and Associated
Charities could easily accomplish this
and without a heavy expense. Such
playgrounds, with Instructions, would
he of great value to the city. It would
secure training, recreation and devel
opment of the children, thereby lessen
ing disease, vice and crime among
them.
The city can well afford to Issue
bonds for the purposes of securing
more adequate school buildings, a sys
tem of parks and playgrounds and pub
lic comfort buildings. Such money
would be well Invested and would bring
forth one hundred fold In good results.
It would improve the city, enhance the
value of property.-make Atlanta a city
of culture and Ideal homes.
Improve the schools, school buildings,
develop parks, playgrounds and public
comfort buildings, and you Improve the
health of the city, add to the vigor and
growth of the children and In the same
proportion lessen disease and degen
eration.
Th#se equipments will also lessen
vice and crime, elevate the morals and
develop a higher standard of citizen
ship.
Aa a city, Atiantn has It within Its
power, to a great extent, to make the
next generation and the future of the
city Just what It would have them be.
If Atlantans neglect their duty and
obligations, they are In a measure
responsible for the results.
While expositions are a benefit to a
city, and are to be commended by the
public-spirited, much more so are ade
quate school bulldlngk, school facilities,

to the teachers In our public scl
give the teachers better pay and better
opportunities, and give the child a
chance to grow and develop, and the
results can not ba computed In doltara
and cents. i
Two hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars Judiciously expended, as above In
dicated, would be of more permanent
and lasting benefit than anything else
the city could do at present. Such an
Investment now would be better than
twice that amount five years later.
If the council does nothing more, It
should appropriate at least 82.000 for
keeping the school grounds open as
play grounds next summer. The ex
periment of the Associated Charltlea
proves the practical benefit of the work.
This amount of money put In the hands
of the park board and school hoard,
aided by the Associated Charities, is
Imperatively needed for the benefit of
the children of the crowded sections of
the city. /
If the school chltdren could be
■zed Into clubs or societies, each
officered by Its own scholars and di
rected by one of the teachers, much
good could be accomplished. The,stu
dents could be taught rules of order,
trained In conducting the business and
Inspired to higher Ideals and asplra
lions.
The objects of the organisation
should be:
1. Improve the school grounds and
keep the streets clean.
2. Develop a system of parks and
play grounds.
.1. Receive simple, practical Instrur-
ins on health, hygiene and preven
tion of disease.
Each school society should Improve
Its own grounds, have a monthly meet
ing, nominal dues of 5 cents each
month, with one-half to go to local
work and half to a general fund for
parks and play grounds.
Each year, at the close of the school
term, have a general mass meeting of
all the schools, each giving a report of
work accomplished, and discuss the
general work and develop an Interest
In parks and play grounds throughout
the city.
The details and work of such an hr-
ganlzallon can be very easily woi
out and applied. Children eo organ
ized and Instructed for six or seven
years would develop a class of cltlxene
that would look well to the care and
development of the city, and the result
In health and happiness would be Im
he permanent growth and develop
ment of the city does not depend upon
financial gains alone—to the sociologist
much more Is essential. The moral and
Intellectual growth must accompany
the material If our march as a city Is
to be onward and upward. Each city
Is Just what Its cltlsena make It. If
we have crime, vice and disease, we are
to a great extent responsible for them.
If our children are falling physically,
morally and mentally. It Is because we
have failed to properly care for and
provide for them.
Children can not be huddled together
like sheep, grew up on the streets ahd
alleys In poor tenement houses. In fac
tories , or workshops, surrounded by
foul air, foul morels, and make well-
developed, useful cltlsena.
Then we, es guardians of the city's
best Interest,-should ace that the chil
dren have a fair showing In the battle
of life, and that they are not compelled
to enter the race handicapped by dis
ease and degeneration.
The physical, moral and mental fac
tors in the development of the child are
Interdependent, so we must have fresh
air, sunlight, good surroundings and ad
equate school facilities for the proper
development of the children. It Is the
business and duty of the city to fur
nish such.
To fall to do so Is short-sighted
economy and detrimental to the best
Interest of the city and the child. At
lanta ran not afford to miss so great
an opportunity. The financial Inter
est of the city demands It: the henlth
of the city demands It; the future
growth of the city demands It: the
physical, moral and mental develop
ment of the children demand II, and
the people should demand It.
The above views are submitted to
the cltlsena of Atlanta with a view of
creating an Interest and sentiment In
favor of a more beautiful, healthful
city, also In behalf of the children and
the better development of the future
citizen.
