•Rest and Relaxation
A man boasted tn me not long afro
that he never took more than fo
hours' sleep out of twenty-four.

Dr. Dempsey, one of the most elo

not only of the mystery of the Gos-

But
Thei
i« an appalling number of people
feel the same way about it.
Science has not yet solved
mystery of sleep. Experiments
Mill being made. But this much
have found out: Sleep eliminates
poisons which are generated in
tody during the day. It gets rid of
the ashes from the comhustio
brain and nerve and muscle. 1
vitalizes and refurnishes and rejuve
nates the billions of cells that |
make up the marvelous structure of
our bodies. A kind of glorious an
aesthetic that has no unpleasant af
ter-effects!

feeling that we have been
again. The discouragements
weariness of the night before
keen replaced by new hopes,
plans, new ambition, new strength,
determination.
Considering the marvels -deep
‘oniplishee—why is it that so many
people begrudge the time given
to it? Every hour they cheat sleep
they feel is that much gained, hut I
never knew anyone to consistently
steal time from sleep and not lore out
in the end. If one is young, he can
get away with it for a time, hut
sooner or later the time comes when
the eyes grow null, the face has a
haggard look. There is no spontane
ous reaction. The mind is stupified.
Sometimes loss of sleep leads to seri
ous brain disorders nnd nervous
troubles. oft»n ending in insanity or
of the Holy Spirit. In this steward
ship. he gives heed to the guidance
of the Holy Spirit. He makes full use
of the aid of the Holy Spirit in pray
er nnd employs the pewer of the Holy
Sprit in all of his labors for God. He
cannot be a good trustee of the gift
of the pirit unless he consciously
and constantly lives in the sense of
his privilege. God lias put !:imself at
the Christian's disposal and requires
Christian to be faithful in thi.-
trusteeship of the Divine one him
self. The presence of the Holy Spirit
in the Christian’s life is what makes
it vital. He is God in us, living out
his life in the terms of our every-day
humanity. The renluation of this
truth marks the difference between
perfunctory and formal religion and
living Christianity. Here is the sec. ;
ret of life, power and achievement.” j

e Central of Georgia again calls attention to the danger of automobiiists or pedestrians
: railroad tracks without making sure that no train is near. In 1928 a total of 2,568 men,
and children were killed in highway grade crossing accidents, while in addition more than
respassers were killed on railroud tracks or property. In contrast although nearly 800 mil-
•e paying passengers were transported by the railroads during th eyear, only 16 of these were

The grade crossing problem is one of the mo?
ig so easy a solution. There were

Some students of the grade crossing problem advocate the entire elimination of all crossings
through construction of overhead bridges or underpasses. Nearly twenty billion dollars would
Ik- needed for this work, and the cost would have to be parsed on to the general public either in
tlu- form of increased rates for the railroads or increased taxes for municipalities undertaking or as
sisting in the project. The most practical and economical solution is contained in the Supreme
Court’s decree that the responsibility rests upon tre driver to make sure no train is near before he
ventures upon a railroad'- track.
Grade crossing fatalities, large hough their total is, represent less than ten per cent of the
fatalities from accident.- in which automobiles fi.jure. Due largely to the same carelessness dis
played at grade crossings, an additional 25,000 persons are killed each year in other automobile ac
cidents on streets and roads. Automobiles have be -n brought to a high state of efficiency and few
accidents are due to mechanical defects. If automobiiists would show the same care in protecting
their own lives and those of their companions th :t the railroads show in protecting lives entrusted
to them the automobile could be made almost as sale as the railroad passenger car. And all too
frequently it is the careful driver who becomes the victim of the reckless, incompetent or irrespon-
The railroads are not actuated by selfish moti.es in advocating care on the part of automobile
drivers, not only ut grade cros>ings but on highways. On the contrary, as the hazards of automor
bile travel increase, more and more travelers, pa.'ticularly among the rea>onably careful, will return
to the railroads as the safest means of getting fr n: place to place. The Cenral of Georgia has no
desire to profit either directly or indirectly from taese automobile tragedies. It therefdre urgts
its friends and partons who u s e automobiles to practice every possible precaution, particularly be
fore venturing upon the tracks of this or any other railroatf.
