announces the
N eur ocal ometer
The Missing Link in Chiropractic Discovered.
You are invited to see this wonderful Scientific
Seeing Is Believing if--*—*—■*-
THE NEUROCALOMETER, a scientific instrument, is so sensitive that when placed *
over the spine it will immediately register a certain degree of pressure, showing
the location of the interference to transmission. The chiropractor then knows
just what vertebrae to adjust. After giving the adjustment the Neurocalometer
is again applied and wonderful as it may seem, it registers in all cases a considerable re
duction, and in some cases even zero. Why? Because the nerve pressure has been reliev
ed and normal transmission has been restored. Could anything be more convincing? No
more worrying about whether your chiropractor has given you the right adjustment or not.
Seeing is believing. You are satisfied, and in time will get well.
CHIROPRACTIC has made steady progress since its discovery twenty
eight years ago. At first we depended upon palpation of the spine alto
gether, as we had no other way of determining the subluxation (dis
placement of the small bones of the spin e.) Then came the X-ray or Spinograph,
which gave us the specific position of the vertebra and verification of our palpa
tion to get the correct adjustment.
Now we have gone a step farther and have the Neurocalometer, which is the
real specific that now lines up the Spinograph, the palpation and adjustment. It
is apparently the missing link of Chiropractic.
The Neurocalometer, together with palpation and Spinograph, enables the
patient, who has a right to get well, to obtain this privilege, to get well in the best
and shortest time possible.
There are nine different ways in which a vertebra may be displaced. The
Spinograph is the only means we have t o determine the position of the vertebra,
then the Neurocalometer shows us where the nerve is impigned. After the ad
justment of the vertebra, impinging the n erve has been made, the Neurocalometer
will show whether or not the impigneme nt has been released, and if it has, it will
register zero, showing us positively that the impignement has been released.
Sick people, avail yourselves of this opportunity of getting well. You need
not to-be sick. The means is right here at your door.
Make your appointment for a Neurocalometer reading soon as possible.
Readings by appointment only.

RAPIDLY COMPLETING
ORGANIZATION HERE
OF AUGUSTA COUNCIL
OF SOCIAL AGENCIES
Initial Meeting of the Coun
cil Will Be Held Just As
Soon As Various Welfare
Units Here Select Del
egates
The Augusta Council of Social
Agencies is making steady prog
ress in its organization. This is a
representative body composed of
delegates from the various social
agencies doing welfare work in
Augusta.
As soon as the different govern
ing boards have had an opportunity
to appoint their delegates the initial
meeting of the council will be called
and plans for w-ork forrpulated.
This movement for community
organization is V such recent origin
that many people are unfamiliar
wlths its aims and purposes.
AIM OF THE COUNCIL
OF SOCIAL AGENCIES
The aim of the council Is to
develop a better inter-play between
th<e work of different agencies, re
sulting In greater economy and ef
ficiency of effort on the part of all
of them; to bring about hnprove
ment in methods, policies and ideals
through mutual discussion and
counsel. The council seeks also to
outline a program of social devel
opment which may look years into
the future, but which will plan def
initely the order in which new acti
vities in the social field should bo
undertaken by the community.
The effectiveness of this organ
ization is shown by the results at
tained in other cities. Over 200
cities in the United States now have
such councils of social agencies and
marked progress has been made
as a result. The experience of Co
lumbus, Ohio, is illuminating, be
cause Columbus organized its coun
cil following a social survey such
as was made here In Augusta. At
the end of its first year, John W.
Pontius, a prominent citizen of Co
lumbus, president of the Columbus
Council of Social Agencies, report
ed as follows:
“The first and most outstanding
service of the Columbus Council
of Social Agencies in this past
year has been the education of all
the organizations of Columbus in

Success of Boy Scout
Campaign is Assured
Over Four Thousand Dollars Raised and Workers aro
Confident They Will Get Balance of Money
Needed.
Teams nnd committees engaged
during Wednesday and Thursday
in the drive for funds with which
to assure continuance of Boy Scout
activities In Augusta met Friday nt
luncheon nt two o'clock at the
Hotel Richmond, and reported re
sults of the two-day campaign. The
reports were highly gratifying and
showed a net result of $4,300 sub
scribed to this important work so
far. This leaves but $2,700 more to
be subscribed to complete the
amount of $7,000 set ns the goal.
This, it is confidently expected,
will ho raised by Tuesdny without
trouble. There nre a number of
cards yet to be heard from of the
total sent out, nnd these cards will
be turned In nt the Boy Scout cam
paign headquarters in the Mer
chants Bank Building, 821 Broad
street as rapidly ns they come in.
This week being an unusually
busy one in Augusta, and owing to
absence from the ciiv of a number
of prospective contributors to the
Boy Scout cause, it was not pos
sible to complete the canvass with
in the two days set aside for tho
work. For this reason tho time is
extended through Tuesday. The
headquarters reserved nt the Mer
chant Bank building will he main
tained and the work continued until
that time.
Those who are interesting them
selves in this work are most opti
mistic as to tlie outcome nnd are
firm in their belief that the drive
will be successful beyond expecta
tions. All workers are urged to
turn in their report* promptly at
headquarters.
At the luncheon, Boy Scout Exe
cutive Newman reported on the
team work and Maurice E. Dyess,
president of the Augusta Boy
Scout council, made an impressive
talk on Boy Scout work.
Mr. Dyess said in part: “You
have been told what the Boy Scout
movement means to the boy. It is
the most important problem that
we have faced nnd is secondary to
no other problem. It requires an
organization and It requires ex
pense. The boys today live in a
more dangerous atmosphere than
did the boys of ten, twenty or thirty
year* ago. They have more leisure
time and are exposed to far greater
temptations. Whatever efforte we
havo put forth we feel amply re
paid for by the pleasure we have
gotten out of it and in watching the
boys develop.”

Moragne Fleming also made a
strong talk telling of the boy scout
work boing a safeguard to boys and
allowing the Importance of the work
to (he future of the country.
Don 11. Culley, general chntrman
of the Boy Scout campaign com
mittee presided at the luncheon and
expressed himself ns conlldent of
the success of the drive movement
and urged on ills co-workers senl
ous activity during the time be
tween now and Tuesday.
About 35 men and women were
present at the luncheon.

THE GENESIS STORY
PART OF MYTHOLOGY, 1
WRITTEN AS A MORAL
LESSON, SAYS RABBI
Dr. Herbert Straus, In
Sermon at Telfair Street
Temple Friday Night, De
livered Interesting Address
on “Evolution and Re
ligion: Can They Be Served
Together?”
"My definition of religion Is
that, it Is a philosophy of living,
of speaking kind words, of doing
kind deeds ... It is not a cere
monial, a creed or ritual, for these
are merely the natural and con
crete symbols which the tottering
human mind needs . . . Bryan
' rays we must believe the stories of
rreation ns told In tho first two
chapters of Genesis. The proofs aye
against this . . . Those Btorlcs in
Genesis nre but parts of the
mythology as borrowed from tho
Phoencian*. tho Babylonian*, nnd
other tribes of the desert . . , Re
ligion is not based on the super
natural; It Is founded upon the ab
solutely natural ... so Is science
a study of the natural; and religion
apd science come together on tho
samo foundation."
So declared Rabbi Herbert C.
Straus before the congregation at
tho Telfnir Street Temple Friday
evening in one of the most instruc
tive addresses on a highly enter
taining topic that nns ever, per
haps, been given In Augusta. The
subject of Doctor Straus’s address
was, "Evolution nnd Religion; Can
They he Served Together?” nnd he
led his hearers through the two
theories of evolution, tho Mono
podlal and the Cynpodinl, and n
eonlrnsiing of science and religion,
in forceful language easy of under
standing and, showing a deep nnd
thoughtful *tudy of Ills subject
not usually given to it by the lay
mind. The topic was «n unusually
interesting one heenuao of the fact
that the theory of evolution Is now
adays being given earnest thought
nnd consideration by many of the
foremost leaders in rollglonj tho
two matters, evolution nnd religion,
being sought by some to hnrmon
lz«; by others to prove their ex
treme antagonism.
SUBJECT INTERESTING
ONE AT THIS TIME
Only within the past few weeks
was a teacher , Professor Fox, of
Mercer University, brought to task
by his co-workers and superiors In
office because of his outspoken
t>lens lennlng towards evolution;
and the states of (leorgla and Cal
ifornia through their legislative
bodies, at tills time have under
consideration passage of Inws gov
erning the teaching of evolution In
the public schools, tho proposed
Georgia law going so far as to In
dicate withholding of state suppori
Crom any Institution wherein Is
taught evolution. Kentucky already
has on her statute books a law for- 1
bidding the teaching of evolution
In her public schools; and the sub
ject has aroused people throughout
the country, both pro and con.
A synopsis of llnblii Straus’s
address as given Friday evening Is
as follows:
"My friends, during tho past few
years there has been started a nn
tlon-wldg discussion In tills coun
try on tho theory of evolution,
which, If It were not for tho fact
that so many Individuals have ac
cepted certain teachings without
study, would he a laughable mat
ter. And there have been so many
who have adhered to the teachings
of William Jennings Bryan, and
statements from press and pulpit
has gone to such extent that some
sort of an answer should he made.
"There Is a law passed In the
state of Kentucky forbidding tho
teaching of evolution In the public
Rchools. The same law Is now be
ing entertained by thg state of
fleorgla and of California; nnd the
Georgia law refuses state aid to
any Institution In which evolution
is taught. In California tho ques
tion Is to ho decided by a commit
tee of college professors. This
means that the California law Is
practically killed now, because of
the fact that the men In whose
handH the question Is plneed are
known to he pro-evolutionists.
Those who are putting such laws
Into effect and giving recognition
to Brynnlstlc doctrines opposing
evolution are following the lead
er without Intellectual discrimina
tion.
"I witnessed the showing of the
picture, ‘Fire mist to man.’ that Is
now being shown throughout the
country. It Is a f».e picture and I
hope It will be shown here. It Is
a pleturlzation of evolution trac
ing the growth of man from the
gaseous, on through tho water and
successive atsges of creation to
man. This picture was made by
scientist* with the co-operation of
the University of California where
evolution Is taught nnd believed In.
I have studied at this university,
and have also taken courses un
der Prof. Frank W. Itfackmark,
of the University of Kansas, who
Is a strong believer In evolution.
Immediately after the picture,
‘Fire M.lst to Man’ was shown, n
minister rushed upon the stage nnd
delivered a masterful oration
against evolution.
"Evolution and religion; can they
be served together? Before wo en
ter Into that discussion we must
understand the meaning of the
terms.
PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE
PHILOSOPHY OF LIVING
"What is religion? What Is
science? What Is evolution?
"Is your definition of religion
the dogmas and the tenets that aro
presented or that may he memor
ized? Or Is your definition of reli
gion a philosophy of life—a philo
sophy of living rather than of
creed? . „ ,
"Science Is the study of facts
and conditions surrounding us; of
nature as God created it, based on
logic, common sense and reason
ableness. My definition of religion
Is that. It Is a philosophy of living,
of speaking kind words, of doing
kind deeds, of living a righteous
life 855 days In the year. Religion
to me Is not a ceremonial, It Is
not a creed or ritual; for these nre
merely the outward clothing with
which wo Invest religion, the na
tural and concrete symbols which
the tottering human mind needs.
Then If you wipe out the principles
of science what will become of
your religion? Would you not wipe
out the very foundation of your
religion If you wiped out Its rela
tion to science?

‘Primary’ For New Ward
In November Elections
A. Dwight Deas Named Member From Sixth to Succeed
T. I. Hickman, Whose Term, Expires, and Other Mem
bers of Old Sixth are Empowered to Represent New
Sixth—Friends Nominate G. W. Blanchard, and Ferd
inard Phinizy in Seventh
The muddle growing out of leg
islation disfranchising citizens of
the new Seventh Ward in Augusta
in tho selection of representatives
on the Board of Education from
that ward was in fair way for set
tlement Saturday when announce
ment was made by J. G. fielding,
chalrmnn of the building commit
tee of the board, that a meeting of
tho board had been called for next
Tuesday, nt which tirno some action
would bo taken in settlement of
the matter.
At the same time announcement
was made by friends of George W.
Blanchard and Ferdinand Phinizy
tlint those citizens of the Seventh
Ward would bo asked to become
candidates in a "primary” in that
ward on the date of tho general
election, which la November 4th.
It is understood that these men will
consent to having their names
placed on the ticket.
THINKS CITIZENS
SHOULD BE HEARD.
"I feel that the citizens of the
Seventh Ward nre entitled to have
a voice In tlie selection of their
representatives on the Board of
Education,” Mr. Bolding said, "and
the meeting has been called for
next Tuesday with the idea of ar
ranging for nn expression of the
voters of that ward.”
In tlie Sixth Ward, which Is part
of tlie old Sixth Ward, A. Dwight
DenH has been appointed to suc
ceed T. I. Hickman on the board,
Mr. Hickman'* term expiring. The
appointment was made by H. A.
Norreil, clerk to tho Board of
glon Is adhered to, then there
should he no occasion for such a ]
statement as was made to me by |
a college boy who Btated that, since
ho had attended college he had lost,
all faith In religion on account of
the supposed contradictions science
places on religion; for example, the
law of the conservation of energy
uml matter. Where would your In
ventions he today If it were not for
the conservation of energy and
matter? Your scientists would
ho lost. No truth hns so far been
given to disprove the theory or
evolution.
ALL STARTED FROM
SOME CENTRAL POINT
"Thero are two theories of evolu
tion, the tnonopodlal and the cyn
podial. The monopodlal teaches
that man started from the little
amoeba as found In water, and de
veloped on through progressive
stages of animal life and through
the apo to mail. That Is the evolu
tion Bryan teaches against, but It
Is not the evolution accepted by
aclentists.
"The cynpodlal theory of evolu
tion Is that all started from some
central point, cull It God If you
will, and that when a certain point
was reached there was a branch
ing Into different forms es nnlmal
nnd vegetable life; nnd the one
developed farthest from the branch
off to Itself Is that of man.
"The ape hns developed to It*
fullest extent. How Is It possible
then, that mun has developed from
a thing that has already been de
veloped to Its fullest extent? Tho
ape Is a different branch from the
starting point, as Is also man of the
same creation. I believe thnt such
a theory Is acceptable to religion
us It Is to scientists.
"Now, how about the undlsput
ab’e fact that the earth Is so much
older thnn tho chronology of the
Bible slates? Bryan says we must
believe the stories of the creation
as told In tho first two chapter* of
Genesis. There are proofs against
this. In Mammoth Cave. Kentucky,
und In other caves, are found
stalagmites and stalugtltes that
nre known to grow one sixteenth
of nn Inch In 100 yenrs; and many
of these are ten feet In length, thus
proving an age, according to scient
ists, of 192,000 years; nnd other
scientific statements place tho age
of the earth at millions of year*.
And how Is Bryan going to an
swer the discrepancies existing In
the first two chapters of Genesis?
ARE BUT PARTS
OF MYTHOLOGY
"Those stories In Genesis are hut
parts of the mythology as borrow
ed from the Phoenicians, the Baby
lonians, and other tribes of the
desert, and written Into the Bible
as moral lessons within the reach
of tho mentality of people of that
day.
"The story of the creation as
given In Genesis is not given to
man as an historical fact; but there
Is a lesson to he learned there, and
that lesson Is that there Is a God.
This Is the first statement In the
Bible, that there Is a God, for It
says: ‘ln the beginning God creat
ed the heavens and the earth, etc.,
and the emphasis Is to be p aced on
God and not on ruatlon. You can
take each one of those stories and
show them to be given, not as a
fadt of history, but a* a moral
teaching.
"Other ministers take the dif
ferent book* of the Bible and Inter
pret them to suit themselves, to
point out great moral lessons. Then
why could not this hold true with
there mythological atorles?
"Religion le not based on the
supernatural: It Is founded upon
Hie absolutely natural, on the life
around us and within us. Ho Is
science the study of th# natural;
and religion and science come to
gether on the same foundation. Let
the foundation of science be untrue,
or science fall to do Its part, then
will r'liglon start to crumble.
When there Is a true understanding
between faith and science reli
gion Is upheld and aoclety can
work on to the end of a perfect hu
man kind.”

Commissioners of Richmond coun
ty, and was made, according to Mr.
Norreil, under authority given him
by an act of the legislature of Au
gust 17, 1914.
Other members of the old Sixth
Ward are Dr. W. C. Kellogg and
Mrs. A. H. Brenner, nnd under
a recent act of the legislature they
are empowered to continue as
members of the board for the new
Sixth until their terms expire. Both
Dr. Kellogg and Mrs. Brenner live
in the Seventh Ward now. Mrs.
Brenner has already announced
that she would rather not serve.
The legislative act provided that
one new member be elected from
the Sixth and that the two members
of tlie old Sixth serve the New
Sixth until their terms for which
they were elected expire. The act
further provided that the Board
of Education appoint three mem
ber* for the new Seventh Ward.
PROTEST VOICED BY
CITIZENS OF SEVENTH.
Realizing that the legislative act
disfranchised the residents of the
Seventh Ward, many citizens from
that ward raised vigorous protest
against the board being permitted
to elect these members, and as a
result the board will meet next
Tuesday for the purpose of ad
justing the matter.
The "primary” in the Seventh
Ward will be unofficial, If the
Board of Education permits it to
be held, but It is understood that
the board will agree to elect the
candidates nominated by the voters
of the Seventh.
