Speaking ... THE ... Public Mind Cngregatinal Singing. T The Herald. Why Is u thwt the mdern ehurchei do not have nurr* of the good o!d*tim« con gregational singing? On yesterday I at tended one of the central churches and tile songs sung l.y the paid choir were very good, hut those In which the con gregation was Invited to Join were about Ihe lament efforts I ever heard. Snugs like. "Am I a Soldier of the Cross?" "Rock of Ages" ntul numerous others that I could mention are ra-rely. If ever, sung In many of the modern up-to-date churches of a cli.v. so I am told, and In sletatl new faangleaj songs arc announced which no one knows how to sing except I ho choir. If. h\ chance an pld-fush loned song Is announced the meter lias been changed so that It is nnn-recog nlteable. It strikes me that church at tendance could he stimulated a great deal by a return to the old songs and *n genuine democracy In church affairs In general. There Is a formality exist ing in many of our leading churches which Itotles no good for the usefulness of the church. A stranger In the city can a I tend some of the churches and never get « crdial grasp of the hand In welcome. VISITOR. To the Herald: A PRAYER.

AUGUSTA, GA. the sun can’t shine through. Yes, time, turn backward, and grant our reettiest for Hod's richest Messing, but not H.VDRESSER” . BROADWAY. JUST A PROTEST. To the Herald: Why is it that the county authori ties will continue to permit such places to run as "The Dip" and the "Rueket of Blood?” The new Savannah road is full of drunken negroes who are a nuisance to those who traverse that thorough fare. and there are frequent fights in those places which result in blood shed and arwnetlmes murders. At the "Rueket of Blood” one would natural ly expect to find such characters as “tlyp, the Blood," “Lefty Louie,” etc., that i» If I here Is anything in a nmae. One of the principal business reas ons w t\y they should broken up is be cause they no doubt have a gang of loafing negroes arpund them who should lie at work jdoking cotton. Then, too, I have no doubt but what they harbor negroes who live on the "service pan" tarried by negro women who cook for the people of Augusta. The people of this city are paying the bills when these negroes are allowed to loaf around such places. There are probably olher "resorts" t n the outside of the cltv limits that are objectionable bot the two men tioned have come tinder my observa tion for some time. DECENCY How Some Clerks Criticise To The Herald: I read a few days since in "Speaking the Public 3liud" column a letter from a lady about Ihe habit of some clerks in Augusta stores criticising cus ton ers’ wearing apparel, looks and general get-dp. 1 agree with the lady, it Is time to call a halt to such ill mannered demonstrations. There is en tirely too much of this. Unfortunately, the trouble does not stop at backbit ing customers, but criticism is made By Tad of citizens in general In stores and around the city. A peculiar thing Is that most of these backbiters live In glass houses, as the saying goes, hav ing even worse defects than the de famed person, or being related to some person who is a black sheep in society. Now this city will never amount to anything until this back biting is eradicated. It is high time that Augustff should shed her village garments and take up city ways. It is going lo be a hard job to stamp out this horrible crime of backbiting, but it can be done if a determined effort is made. It seetns as it' the merchants should stort a crusade against it Employers should not tolerate at places of business, criticisms of cus tomers or citizens. and our people generally should discountenance such a had habit, and plainly tell these character assassins that the sooner they hike from Augusta with their little belongings the better it will be for all concerned.

A number of arrests have been made recently of persons chaise! with the smuggling of opium into thn Canal aone where the increasing use of the drug by the canal workers is no ticeable. The source of the trouble is In the ad joining territory of the Republic of Pan ama. where no effort has yet been made to prevent the importation and sale of the drug. According to the canal au thorities. Panama derives an annual revenue of $20,000 from the opium trade, the entire concession for which is leased for this sum to Low Lam, a Chinaman. While the Chinese on the isthmus are the principal consumers of the drug, •11 the last everal months the West Indian negro laborers on the canal have taken to the habit, and it is feared that there aVe soifte white employees who may be come its victims. t Pressure is being brought upon the Panama government to prevent the im portation of the drug. As long as Mai -h, 1912 the Panama Republic signed the Hague convention for the suppression of opium trade and hound itself to prevent the importation of opium into her terri tory. Since then, however, nothing 1: is been done. In reply to the protests from the Canal zone officials and Unit ed States Minister Price. the Panama government points out that the Hague convention did not become binding until all the signatory nations had ratified the agreement. Ernesto T. LeFevre. minister of for eign relations, declares that just as soon as all tlie other powers ratify the con vention and begin enforcing it. Panama will do the same. The contract with the Chinaman. Low Lain, provides that he must cease the sale and import iron of the drug immediately upon ratifica tion of the convention. In the meantime, and in the absence of any assistance from the Panama gov ernment. the canal authorities are do ing their utmost to keep the drug out of the Canal zone. celebratesTartistic JUBILEE; BERLIN ARTIST Berlin. —One of the most versatile of artists.
