POUR Speaking ... THE... Public Mind To The Herald: I would like to add a little more to the already heaping pile of Informa tion and dlecuaelons on the new ne eropolia which Is being laid out on the old Fleming place, on the Hill. While there has been a great deal hi.ld about the present name, no one seems to he able to suggest a new one, thnt Is ex cept the frayed one of, "Greenwood," And we have already had objections to that, and 1 my self don’t think It would be suitable for such a sacred place as God's acre. I don't think It would he a good Idea to have a name that nine-tenth* of tho population of the City of Augusta could understand much Ichs pronounce. Even though a high sounding name would be a good Idea, for the late, cemeteries seem to have become places of beauty, and In the larger cities thou sands of people visit them dally. And It seems that the more unknown the name ts, the more attraction the place holds. Kuch names as the I’erc la Chaise and the t'ampo Santo would he very appropriate, especially the t'ampo Bnrito (sacred place) the name has the true ring to It, and also the meaning Is there. Still in this modern every-day world of ours we seem to prefer the common Americanized English words, that is, words use.' every day by the average person. So why not try one after our own great burial-places? Take for Instance our national cemeteries such as Arlington Heights. Then again some of us might not he so partial to that, a* It has a military sound to It, hut still military suggests patriot ism. and are we not parttotte to our dead? Although Arlington Heights sounds alright, we could drop the Heights (though It Is on the Hill) and call It Arlington Cemetwry. And again suppose we come down to more every-da.v words say s name which suggest Its location such as Laurel Hill, Rose 11111 or even call It Aumnnd, and personally I don't think the last sounds bad at all, for are we not going to have a new suburb not very far from this location? A place where a great many people, that Is when It ts more thickly populated, will bury their dead? Then we could take the name of Graceland and of all 1 have mentioned 1 1 like this best. lads get together and get a name that would do credit to Augusta Some thing like, as I have mentioned above, Citmpn Santo, Arlington or Graceland. They all seem very appropriate F. O. BTKVKNS. REPLIES TO "P. Hr To The Herald: P. N. In the Speaking the Public Mind Column goes a great length to criticize the present system of teach ing children of today and cites a prob lem that he was »o well taught when a hov of twelve yeara thnt ho never for got it When hie 18-year-old boy could not work tit, via: "If the third of six la three IVhat would the fourth of twenty he 7" A* this la not a real mathematical problem the average person would truthfully any It could not be—but iih the study of mathematic* la one of the greatest developera of man's reasoning faculties we have such hypothetical problems that we have to assume a fact that Is not a fact to solve this problem and so here we go: I yet us assume that three Is the third of Nix, then six would be nine ns throe thirds make a whole: then six would be one and one-half of ilself, and twenty would he one and one-half ll ■etf which would he thirty and the fourth of thirty would be seven and one-hall. 1 four that Mr. I*. N. Is do ing his young son an Injustice as well as our high schools h> such criticism for his lack of knowledge of arithmetic that he possessed, lam satisfied i( you want your son to learn a trHtle and he proficient at tt. he will have to choose one that he likes and Is talented for. not what father or mother would like him to be So It Is with tits studies at school If I recollect right our high school adopting this manner of teach ing, vlx: A boy Is not pushed along with his class lii studies be Is not pro ficient In as In the old grade system, It is now each study is a grade with in Itself; he may he In the first class In one study and In the lowest In an other, according to his talent for this special study. If Mr. P. N. would like to refresh hts memory on n few sam ples of true mathematics that would seem at first thought entirely different to what the result Is after llgurlng It, v!*.: A dealer sells two horses for 1150.00 each, on one he makes 25 per cent, <>n the other, he losoe 25 per cent. l>oee he make or lose, aud how much? Again, try title: An old woman goes to market with a basket of eggs, to the first person she sells one-half of the eggs and one-half on egg; to the second, she sells half the remainder and one-half an egg; to the third .she, sold one-half the remainder and one half an egg and had one egg left and did not break un egg. Aa you have studied Algebra, geometry and other higher branches of mathematics which have been useless to you, suppose you try this egg problem by figures? I am not writing this to take any part In defense for our school system of teaching, as 1 feel that they are amply able to take care of themselves, but In.preas upon Mr. P. N. that there are two parties connected at the school, via: The teacher and the pu pil, and possibly If hts son was no othfr than P. N.'s why the teacher could aav what part the hoy has taken, lvn't bush-whack under Noir r>e Plume. Youra truly. CHAH. Ij MACMPRPH Y. Pointer* for Woman.

AMBASSADOR Much Commendation For Mr, Morgenthau For Protecting French and British in Leaving Turkey. London. —Dispatches from Turkey received here today are full of praise for the way In which Henry Morgen than, United States ambassador, pro tected the French and British In leav ing at the outbreak of war between the Ottomans and the allies. The staffs of the British and French emtmsales arrived at the Constantino ple railway station to find a hostile crowd present, while the Turkish min ister of the Interior had failed to sup ply the special train promised for the numerous refugees outside of the of ficial staffs. Only Mr. Morgenthau’s Indignant protests and the presence of Turkish troops prevented an out rage. Thsir Orders. Members of his staff received or ders from tho American ambassador to move among the waiting refugees and tell them their departure would be arranged the next day. The following day Mr. Morgenthau took hold of the situation In an ad mirable manner and Insisted In the strongest way bn the Knglish and French being permitted to leave. Ha overcame all obstacles and obtained tbe necessary authority to start tho refugees away. Mr. Morgenthau placed the British who wanted to leave Constantinople under an obligation which they are not likely to forget. His staff also labored with willing ness and sympathy. The French school and hospital authorities are es pecially grateful to Mr. Morgenthau for hoisting tho American flag over the French hospital at -Constantinople to insure Its safety. Toll Exacted From Japanese Girls is Deadiy As War’s Karuisawa.—"Mora damaging to the health anil morality of tho Japanese thin even a serious war la tho yearly toll exacted from the 200,000 girls who, are recruited from the factories of the empire,” says Galen M. Fisher, tho American general seeretary of tho Young Men’s Christian Association for Japan, who has made an exhaus tive study of economic and social problems here. He set forth the re unite of his studies at the special action lat Karuisawa. Mr. Fisher thinks that nothin* but radical reform and the adoption of progressive laws will meet the situa tion. There are now in Japan a total of 471,577 women and gtrlH employed in private and government factories, t.il per cent of tiie total factory force of thi' country being women. Of thesn t;f> per cent are girls under 20 and 22 per cent under 14 years of gge. The hours of labor In silk factories run from 13 to 15 hours, and In weav ing factories and cotton mills from 10 to 12. Two-thirds of the women workers In Toklo factories receive un der lfi cents a day and only one-sixth from 20 to 30 cents. These are fig ures eathered by *!he Toklo police. Two hundred thousand girls from various country districts are enrolled In the . factories each year for the first time. Notwithstanding the ef forts of the factories and recruiting agents It Is said that any given dis trict is likely to be exhausted of girls In three years. DISEASE MORE DANGEROUS THAN BULLETS; RECORDS That disease, especially In the form of typhoid, Is far mors to be feared than bullets In a war of any length Is unanswerably shown In tho records of every war of which wo have any “How Helen Helped" An Illustrated Serial Story ot Business Guile and Love Bl HAL COFFMAN Starts in To day’s Herald I detailed figures; and it requires little ! effort of memory for people In this country to recall the facts of our sklr ! mish with Cuba. Now that this dread j ed scourge has broken out In the Ku j ropean armies, a few figures relating to other wars will be timely, and the [ following are taken from an interest | Ing article on medical science in the service of war ifi the special war is sue of the Scientific American: “The fire of the enemy Is by no ! means the only risk to which the sol dier Is subjected. Where large bodies 'of men are gathered Into small quar ters there Is always the danger of dis ease. Before anti-typhoid vaccination j was introduced typhoid fever rivaled j the enemy's fire in the terrible toll it took among soldiers. In the Franco- Prttsslan war in the year 1870 there were 73,000 cases of typhoid fever in the German army. Out of this num ber there were 7M)<> deaths. In the Boer war tho British army suffered from typhoid fever to the extent of 57,000 cases, of which 8,000 died. Dur ing the war with Spain the United StateH army was ravaged with typhoid fever. In 1898 there were 20,738 cases and 1,580 deaths among 108,000 men. In other words, one man In every five contracted typhoid fever. Even among teh troops which never left the United States, but. remained In the various concentration camps at home, one man In every six came down with the dis ease. In 1898 nine-tenths of the deaths which occurred among the troops in the United States were caus ed by typhoid fever.” Southern Railway. (Schedule effective Oetohe' 18th. 1914.1 N.
