doubts whether the Influence of parties
who are supposed to teach and Instill
this one great element in human life

not rise higher than Ita sense of pure,
sound morals. One affected apple In a
barrel In time will affect the whole.
The substantial salvation of our people
and the good of those among whom
we live depend very largely upon our
■buity to forever put to flight the loaf,
mg wlll-not-work class, the breeders
0 f evil and the drunken sots.
“These dens of vice and evil must be
routed, and it Is for the responsible,
decent thinking, property owning,
home making class of our own race to
i do It. The jargon that the white peo
ple are jealous and prejudiced to the
negro race will not hold good when
the question of morals and decency Is
taken into consideration.

"That we are capable laborers—this
,„ie question can and may be settles!
for the race's own good. I need not
itress the fact that we have scores
of men and women who are lovers of
whatever kind of work to which they
put their hand. I state equally as a
plain truth when I say there Is en
tirely too large a class who do not
| work, who do not want to work and
who do not mean to work. This crowd
comes from one of two classes, either

grading to do a certain kind of work,
CORRECT 8PEECH.
I To the Editor of The Georgian: '
Apropos of the spelling reform, to a
good many It would seem that an even
better object than trying to reform
spelling over night, so to speak, would
be to make an effort to preserve the
meaning of words. Slang has almost
destroyed the real meaning of hun-
| dreds of words and too frequent use
of superlatives has also played some
| havoc.
■onccrtcd endeavor to correct these
abuses ought to have great and far*
reaching results of benefit to our lan
guage. Words are sure to adapt thorn,
selves In due season, but nothing can
restore the meaning of words once
that meaning Is shunted.
Nothing bespeaks a true lady or gen.
tlcnnn or well-bred child more than
the use of correct language—pure,
clean speech. Cultivate good English
In everyday conversation. Unclean
speech Is In keeping with a smutty
face, hegrlmed hands and soiled clothes.
It is strange how easily and almost
unconsciously, one slides Into a care
less, rllpshod way, of talking, even
when the rules of grammar aro quite
familiar. It Is not uncommon to find,
people learned In all the rales of syn
tax, who apply them to the art of
writing, yet habitually talk Incor
rectly. Early culture and aasoclatlon
r.-lth refined persons are quite essen
tial to give purity of speech, but If one
has been unfortunately deprived of
these, one should ' continually watch
words until the habit of using
| decent English Is fixed.
Nothing so unmistakably marks one
vith vulgarity—no matter how elegant
s the outside covering—as shabby,
| low-born speech.

Atlanta, Ga.
and It Is that the:
fitted *for, and tha.
man that has had some chances must
not do what they regard as menial
work: or a class who feel that they
must live upon others, either by meth
ods of taking It unfairly or by their
wits.
'■That we are deeply Interested In
tnfc South—the best way is to prove
that everybody Is so busy and so dili
gent, doing something to better the
community, until they have no time to
be idle, and, therefore, think no evil,
believe nothing wrong and the very
atmosphere about every one is so
punctured with good will there can be
nothing but joy and happiness for ail
concerned.
“That practical education yields the
most helpful results to all concerned—
I believe this last idea with all the
power of my soul. Two considerations
are essential In these schools. • First,!
the chieftain at the head of the insti
tution and the dally Instruction Im
parted to the youth. It is folly that
practical education Is averse to higher
training, especially Is It true in an in
fant race. The leaders of a people
should be thoroughly trained, but that
class is far less than ten out of a
hundred. The great army of a people
are breadwinners, rent payers, clothes
wearers, they are common laborers.
Whatever the Jolliers or nice talkers
may say, the Scriptures, the best In
terpreters of the truth, stress the one,
two and five talents In a way that all
may learn a lesson. One of our great
est needs today is a little home of our
own, In which to lay down the ele
mentary principles of morals, money
to pay necessary bills, money to prac
tically educate our children, all of
which means that every man, woman,
boy and girl shall find out at the ear
liest possible moment their place and
what work they can best do, and do it
with a will. I believe as sincerely as I
stand here tonight that when these
‘ ' igs have been taught In the home,
the school room, In the chifrch and
our various organizations, a better day
shall have been ushered In upon us
and each will have an equanimity of
mind.”

To the fed! tor of The Georgian:
Why got arouse public sentiment and the
proper authorities of Atlanta and abate In
this beautiful city the crime of the smoke
demon; also the Intolerable, filthy* and
death dealing dust of Atlanta's streets—
pregqated with the death dealing activities
of tuberculosis that annually carries hun
dreds to untimely graves In this fair city.
It has been proven, also, "beyoud question,
that smoke annually does the same work,
by laying the foundations deep down In the
Innermost recesses of the lungs for the
culture of genus. By smoke I mean from
railroads and factories. By wlint right do

A GREAT MI8TAKE.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
While riding in an overladen electric
car last night, standing with both
hands filled with bundles, a philosophic
thought flashed upon me which I hast
en to impart'to you. To wit: The
great mistake of our prehistoric aboreal
ancestors was the criminal negligence
which resulted In the loss of their
tails.
Yet It was a loss not so much for
them as for their posterity, and es
peclally for that portion of It which
uses trolley cars at 6 p. m. Now, If I
had had with me last night that ap
pendage which I insist should have
been transmitted to me as a birth
right, I could have done one of two
things with it. I could either have
held my bundles with it, and used my
hands for the str^ip, or, preferably, I
could have .coiled 1t gracefully around
the strap with advantage to my equili
brium and dignity. But as It was, I
was helpless, for my primogenitors, In
their pride or Indolence, allowed the
tall to atrophy through disuse and
finally to disappear.
We do not realize our loss ,and the
many modern uses to which the tall
could be put. For Instance, how ser
viceable It would be to the mariner
furling pall on the storm-swayed yard.
The ship lurches. He slips. Man over
board! Not so, he is saved, for he had
the prudence to take two twists of his
faithful tall around the jackstay.
The tail, however, Is to be desider
ated, not merely as a mechanical ap
pendage, but more especially as an In
strument of expression In the fine arts.
And hero it Is that the philosopher
most bitterly bewails its loss. Take
acting: Booth was as masterly as
Ingo, but, assuredly, he was hampered
by his tailless condition. Denuded of
the most potent implement for the ex
pression of feline craftiness he neces
sarily failed to reach the subtlest por
trayal of perfidious character.
Consider oratory. Great as are Bev
eridge and Tillman, they would be still
greater with tails. At those moments
of dramatic intensity when the mighty-
voiced Tillman lashes himself Into fury,
the audience, while hanging on his
words, would carefully note his caudal
gestures. "Now we are going to get
something exceptionally fine," It would
say to Itself, “watch his tall.'*
In literature, the tall nnd its emo
tional movements would he a perennial
delight to the realistic school. InMvar
nothing could be finer than a whole
brigade lashing Its tails before a
charge. Music, too, could find uses for
the tall. The organist might pull the
••vox humana" stop without lifting his
hands from the keyboard. Conductors
could beat time with It for the audi
ence. Rhythmically swayed, the toll
would be effective in the dance. So
ciety could promulgate rules of good
form regarding It. With tails the New-
8LEEP.
Sleep, oh violets, sleep under the snow,
Where still shadows creep in evening's
glow;
The moon Jn curtained clouds, peeping
o'erhead.
Through vapory shrouds, its halo doth
shed.
Sleep, oh little buds, sleep crsdled Up
there.
Where the winter winds sweep through
branches bare;
And where mistletoe gleams blown to
and fro, v
Till as white it seems as balls of snow.
Sleep, oh fair lilies, sleep yonder on the
mere,
TUI with life you peep when spring is
here,
And on sweet Easter day, from risen
tomb,
In peerless living array ye lilies bloom.
Sleep, oh weary ones, sleep in your
calm repose.
Where the gentle dews steep the in
cense of rose;
But on the happy shore, with the dear
blest,
Whtre sorrow Is no more, wake there,
and rest,

“LUKE-WARM PR0HIBITI0NI8T8.”
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Three ponderous dally paper*—all
publlahecl In Atlanta—have been kind
ly handed to me. In one I read: “Theae
half-hearted prohlbltlonlata are among
the Intelligent, beet moral citizenship.”
(There often come* a “calm after a
atorm.”) Some of these moral cltixen*
have observed effect* of temperance
enterprise* for full three-score and ten
years, and been enthusiastic prohibi
tionist* for a third of a century; nnd
now, looking at some of the legitimate
fruits of prohibition, see the most
prominent group Is blind tiger, dispen
sary, Jug-trade, (laming ads of whis
ky, (guaranteed pure!), clreulara of
same Import multiplying like tho frogs
of Egypt, and neither last nro least, a
common spirit of disregard for law!
Thus seeing that prohibition promotes
the evil It combats. It seems In order
to take our hearings. The most earn
est Rdvoeates pronounced prohibition In
Georgia a failure a year ago. These
considerations may well cause ua to
cast about for ways of reform.
Casting a ballot for or against pro
hibition would cause a crucial test with
calm, tolerant people, who cherish an
enlightened conscience! A compre
hensive view of the situation Is ap
palling! Sometime* It become* ex
pedient to compromise In part rather
than lose all.
This tower of prohibition has caused
a confusion of tongues—Its foundation
Is not stable. By digging down, It
may eventually be found that a moral
nnd Christian sentiment In co-opera
tion with government ownership and
control, according to existing state of
popular education on the subject, with
all revenue eliminated, would give the
beet reeults. With reepect to all.

UNFIT POULTRY.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Half-starved and diseased poultry Is
being sold by merchants and served In
restaurants for food.
I noticed an article In The Sunday
Constitution that was written by a eltl-
xen on the way poultry Is treated by
the express company and merchants
before It is sold to the people for foot,
rladly hear witness to all that
id In The Constitution, and still
I have noticed several times,
t lot of poultry was shut up and
j, that many of them were sick
w ith sore head and other diseases, and
at the same time they were allowed to
stay In the coops with the others, and
even sold for food In this condition. I
have In my life many times examined
dressed poultry and found that they
were sick when they were killed. You
cun go around and examine the poul
try that Is at the stores and for sale
and you won't llnd nny food or water
In the coops one time In ten. I know
that the city council should pass a
law and appoint a first-class man for
an Inspector of poultry and have him
to see and know that MI poultry that
la offered for sale Is healthy and well
cared for before offered for pale. Let
every one do hla duty and see that this
evil Is stopped.

LOST 1 CORNER LOT?
CITY FINOS ONE BUT
CAN'T FIND OWNER
A nice little lot on the southwest cor
ner of Lee and Columbus streets, In
West End, Is without an owner.
It Is a splendid lot, In a fine section
of the city. Yet, five years' search
has failed to find the person who
owns It, or even one who makes any
pretense to own it. The city tax col
lector's books and the state's do not
throw any light on the mysterious own
er of this valuable piece of property.
The conditions were brought to light
by Contractor F. G. Lake, before the
streets committee of council Friday aft.
ernoon.
Mr. Lake said that he was engaged
to law curbing and sidewtilks on Lee
street, the property*fronting the sido-
alks being assessed. This was In 1901.
All paid but the owner of this lot.
The lot was 1 assessed* as the property
of a woman, but she proved that It is
not hers.
Aided by city officials. Contractor
Lake has been looking for the owner
of this lot ever since. The amount duo
him is 826.93, principal and Interest.
He asks the city to pay him this
amount. The city attorney recom
mends that the bill* bp paid, and that
the city take the psetferty and sell It.

PIONEER HOSTLER
DIES UNDER WHEELS
OE GEORGIA TRAIN
Special to The Georgian.
Madison, Ga., Dec. 16.—While cross
ing the tracks of the Georgia Railroad
yesterday evening shortly after 6
•o’clock, C. B. Atkinson, one of Madi
son’s pioneer citizens, was struck by a
work train and Instantly killed.
He was 65 years of age, and deaf
ness prevented him from hearing the
approach of the engine.
Mr. Atkinson was well known and
greatly beloved. For the past few
years he has been retired, although he
formerly ran a pleasure resort known
as Silver Lake. He was unmarried.
All Brother Elks.
A peculiar situation has arisen over
the fight on the Elks Club of Rome.
Heaborn Wright has petitioned for an
injunction to restrain the Elks from
operating their buffet. The petition
was brought before Judge Moses
Wright. Judge Wright is a brother of
Seaborn Wright, and Is an Elk among
Elks.
Will the legal advisers ofr the Elks or
Seaborn Wright himself urge these
facts as matters for disqualification?
And then It Is said Judge A. W. Fite,
of the Cherokee circuit, will be asked to
hear the petition. But another stum
bling block arises. Judge Fite is an
ardent nnd avowed champion of prohi
bition. So the Elks will urge objections
to him on the grounds of bias and
prejudiced viewpoint.
It Is a pretty row, and has torn the
population of Rome asunder. Prac
tically all the best citizens of the male
persuasion In Rome belong to the Elks.
Arrayed against Mr. Wright will be
this big and Influential membership.
But that will nht deter him in his
zeal once he Is camped firmly In the
trail of the Elk buffet. The row prom
ises to disrupt the county, and affect
the political fortunes of more than
one office holder. And Floyd Is famed
for Its caloric political rumpuses.
The outcome of the matter will be
watched with keen Interest nil over the
state, as the social clubs of Atlanta and
other cities will be affected by the de
cision.
