RIGHTEQUSNESS OR THE
LAW OF NECESSITY.!
Bishop Candler in Atlanta Journal.
“In these times of disquietude in
the world arising from the war in
Europe, many people are pleading
the law of necessity as an excuse for
wrong doing. Such people condemn
the Germans very sharply for acting
upon the theory of necessity in in
ternational matters. The German
Chancellor justified the violation of
Belgium by saying it was necessary,
or, in other words, he claimed that
the interests of Belgium might be
sacrificed for the interests of Ger
many, thus assuming that German
interests were of a higher and more
sacred quality than those of Belgium.
In like manner, he justified the sink
ing of the Lusitania, with all its
helpless and mnon-combatant passen
gers, as a necessity of war. Of
course, such pleading is extremely
horrible, when viewed from the nor
mal standpoint, and the whole world
has felt as much indignition at the
defense of the crime as for the crime
itself. The defense is as immoral as
the offense.™
But let us not suppose the Ger
man militarists have proclaimed a
different doctrine from that asserted
by every man who pleads necessity
as an excuse for his wrongdoing. The
theory is the same whether it be used
as an excuse for international crime
or as a defense for personal immor
ality. We cannot allow for one mo
ment the idea that wrong is ever
necessary.
When once such a theory of morals
is allowed, the moral law is in’ effect
totally set aside. Its majesty is
made to yield to some advantage of
an inferior nature and, when once
the inviolable majesty of the moral
law is lost, it is only a question of
convenience with each man as how
far and when he will obey it at all.
What one will regard as a compellinxl
" necessity another will not perhapsl
regard as so constraining.
With one man the possession of an
imperious appetite is sufficient excuse
for geing on a debauch; he claiming
that he could not help it, that he was
obliged to yield to the impulse for
intoxicants. Others will plead the
constraint of various weaknesses.
Still, others will excuse themselves
by setting forth the necessity arising
from invincible circumstances.
Once the moral law is set aside
under a plea of necessity, what one
does is a mere matter of circum
stance. There is no longer any fixed
principles in life, and conduct, from
day to day, is a matter of Jncertain
and varying opportunism.
There is\need for the proclamation |
of the inviolable authority of the mor
al law. Such a proclamation is needed
at all times, and it is especially neces
sary in a time like that in which wcl
live. All men must be brought face
to face with the fact that righteous
ness is not a matter of convenience,
but is itself a supreme necessity of
life, to which every suggestion of
comfort and consideration of ad- |
vantage must give place.” '

i A LOVELY LITTLE LADY.
~ The Atlanta papers all had tri-j
‘butes to Mrs. George E. King, who
%was laid to rest in West View Ceme
‘tery Tuesday morning, but they were
;all so incomplete. Mrs. King was
‘educated at the old S. M. F. College
in Covington in a class just ahead
of my own and lived a near neighbor
to me in Inman Park for many years.
She was naturally of a cheerful dis
position and had everything to make
her happy.
She was a dainty little blonde with
the most agreeable manners and cor
dial friendliness.
She traveled extensively abroad
and wrote charming letters home rot
to mention some fine contributions
to Atlanta papers about such far a
way and mysterious countries as the
land of the Midnight Sun.
She certainly loved her fellow man,l
especially her sister woman, and was
a pioneer in all movements for the
improvement of conditions of work
ing girls. When the first lady writ
ing life insurance'came to Inman
Park seeking patrons, Mrs. King
promptly insured her life although
her many amused friends knowing
her husbands rating in Bradstreets,‘
wondered why she did so. She smiled
and said she was setting an example
for her younger sisters. She was not
only generous with money but her
spacious home in Atlanta and her
summer house in North Georgia were
always filled with guests. She loved
to see people enjoying themselves
and heartily delighted “to look into
happiness through another man's
eyes."”
Countless loving.friends will grieve
over the passing of Ida Simmons
King but will feel much consolation
in her seven lovely daughters who
remain to carry on her good deeds,
