Bet ne all hope for a better brand
of weather from the present until af
ter Christmas at least.
After seven hundred years of fight
in* Ireland Is at last a free land!
The J'st of the British troops have
shaken the Dish dust off their feet.
It is not too late to Purchase those
little Christmas seals-—those tiny
messengers of mercy that mean so
much to many who are ’constant suf
ferers.
Just how Germany can figure it out,
that Ameriaa would' be willing to
make her a loan until the quotion of
reparations is settled for once and for
all, is not very dear.
The Berlin shoppers are all jubi
lant beeftuse a rise in the mark has
developed alone about the Christmas
shopping time. 'Tia rather lucky,
when one figures on it.
Poland does not do things in any
slow processes. She is busy on the
job of electing anew president today.
She sleeted one last Thursday; he was
uesasstnatsd on Saturday!
Tchltcherin, head of the Russian
delegates at Lausanne, has landed on
|the Laague of Nations with both feet.
Now and then the League receives a
real compliment.
The entente gives this as the last
day which they will wait on the Turk
ish answer at .JLausanne to various
questions. Ij®he meantime British
and have returned
to their mweetrve countries.
The Savunnah mayoralty contest
has been set for hearing in Chatham
superior court on December 2D. We
thpe take it that a truce has been
culled for the observance of Christ
mas!
The new Irish Free State govern
ment has executed nineteen persona
since taking charge of affairs in Ire
land Yesterday seven men who in
terfered with rail transportation
were put to death at dawn.
In the death of Hon. Hamilton
Douglas, of Atlanta, that city and
the entire state loses one of its most
enterprising men. For years, lie had
been ft leader in all civic movements
in Atlanta and lie will be sadly missed
there.
There is a battle royal now on in
the United States senate to try and
shelve the pet ship subsidy measure
of President Hadring. From present
indications, it is doubtful if the meas
ure will be able to pass at the pres
ent session.
President Harding talked to the
governors of the several states ia
Washington on Monday on the ques
tion of the enforcement of the Pro
hibition law-. In the meantime, we
wonder whet the governor of North
Carolina said to the governor of
South Carolina on that occasion?
The republicans in tire House the
other day seated contestant, Mr.
Paul, of Virginia, a republican, of
course, who will only serve until
March fourth next, but who will raid
the taxpayers of the country to the
tune of 915,000. Is there any won
der that Americans growl now and
then about tax burdens?
Representative Keller, republican,
who made so much fuss and feathers
ever Daugherty and who started the
impeachment proceedings against
him, seems to have fallen down on
the job. In any event, it seems Im
possible for tire congressional com
mittee investigating the oherges, to
get Seller to present hie *as*.
AFTER A LONG FIGHT
The last of the British troops have
be.cn -Withdrawn from Ireland and-the
barracks they occupied are now held
by the soldiers of the Irish Free State.
The truggle for Irish self rule has
dragged through the centuries and
self rule is now an accomplished fact.
This is a monument to David Lloyd
George that his bitterest enemies
cannot takeaway from him and it is
the monument in British
achievement.
Other monuments proclaim bril
liant victories on the field of battle
and commemorate the work of mili
tary or naval heroes. They also rep
resent the bravery and devotion of
men under them whose name will not
be remembered and yet who did in
their splawes as essential Work as
was doneCy their commanders. f\
is also time of this monument. WjH>
we credit Lloyd George with itK
was assisted by others who brought
their mindß and, more important still,
their consciences to the solution of a
vexed question which men had
many times before to settle, with th®
mind* but without calling in\the
sistance of conscience. When Con
science was called in the work was
done quickly—so quickly that it now
seems strange that a settlement was
not reachd years ago. Precious years
have been wasted—years In which the
Irish should hve been free but were
oppressed—years in which Ireland
should have been an element of
strength to the British Empire in
stead of a source of weakness. Ire
land hag furnished many leaders who
have added to the renown of British
arms end of British statesmanship
and hundreds of soldiers and sailors
who carried forward the British flag
on land and on sea. But while Ire
land haa contributed to many a Brit
ish temporary victory feeling of dis
content was a Permanent weakness—
a disease spot in the British system.
Let us.hope that this disease spot
has been removed. It seems to have
been mmoved for the account of the
transfer of the flag tells of a remark
able display of enthusiasm und good
will on the pan of both sides and of
a desire to forget bygones.
The willingness to forget is the
best sign of all. Nothing cun be found
that is more unprofitable than a
brooding over past Wrongs. It may
hurt tlie one who inflicted the wrongs
but it certainly hurts the on* who
brood* ovef them. When they are
once rectified as completely as possi
ble they should be banished from
memory and anew start made with
a clean slate.
We who live in the United States
can afford to rejoice in whatever good
comes to the lot of uny nation. Our
isolated Position and our great
strength leave little for jealousy to
feed on. We are not endangered by
the best that can happen to any mem
ber of the family of nations. We can
therefore rejoice with all in every
gain that is made.
Of course if we are Americans in
heart as well by birth or adoption
we rejoice in any gain that liberty
makes anywhere in the world. 'But it
wo are not Don Quixotes we are not
forcing or trying to forco our system
on others. Besides the fact that we
are not to make the
world over again We realize if we
think at all, that those who are in po
sition to do anything with liberty will
show enough appreciation for it to
struggle to attain it without any in
citement by us. World is not all
Prepared for self government but it
is gaining every day. The progress
is all in one direction and some day
the fact will be realized in all parts
of the world that governments depend
for their just powers on the consent
of the governed.
A BAD DAY FOR POLAND
The assassination of the first presi
dent of Poland is not only a misfor
tune in the general sense of the term,
but it is an untoward incident in the
efforts of a great people to rise to a
full measure of self-government af
ter long years of despotism and op
pression under Russia, Prussia and
| Austria.
Late dispatches tell us that the
assassin was “crazy." This is never
a very definite term, or a great many
men caryr their obsessions so far that
they become monomaniacs and those
who give way to them are regarded
as crazy.
Let us hope that as a matter of
fact he was crazy in a sense so real
that he was absolutely irresponsible
and that he did not simply represent
a vigorous political Protest against
the election of a certain man as presi
dent. We are told that the late pres
ident was regarded in certain quar
ters as the creature of German and
other anti-national influences. It doe*
seem to be a fact that his election
ctpe about a* a surprise, and there
may have been mors than a grain of
truth in the charge that he was not a*
intensely patriotic ** seme of his
[competitors for the high office of
chief executive.
But the world has watched with
special interest the Progress of Po
land towards -sell-deyelopment. .She
has had the sympathy of the western
world for generations. The school
boys in their Friday afternoon
speeches are accustomed to declaim
one or more of the great poems that
deplore the fall of Poland and her as
pirations for renewed national life.
Moreover, the names of two Polish
patriots are inextricably blended with
the. story of our struggle for free
dom here in America.
When Russia, long ago, was des
cribed as a “despotism tempered by
assassination,”’ the world simply rec
ognized it as a fact. There was noth
ing akin to representative govern
ment and even uiy to the time of its
overthrow by the Bolsheviki, it was
far from a democracy.
We Jputd like to feel that Poland
has aflkijy advanced far enough to
work oußier destiny as a true democ
racy anir a representative govern
ment. is to be gained, and
bound to be lost, by resorting
to violence when the elections do not
go as certain elements would wish
them to go, even though they be the
most patriotic element in the coun
try.
It will be a long time before she
has lived down this stain.
WESLEY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
Brunswick Methodists will be giv
en an opportunity to contribute to
the mammoth Wesley Memorial Hos
pital, the fir*t unit of which ha* been
completed in Atlanta, and is a great,
credit to all Georgia.
A golden cross band is being form
ed to apply to the big hospital just a*
the Red Cross doea to the public. One
dollar Is the membership fee, and ev
ery Methodist will be to enroll,
the fund going into the maintenance
of the great institution.
Well situated amid grove* and
hill* adjoining the site of Emory Uni
versity, the building is a model of its
kind both in architectural strength
and gruco and in skilled adaptation
to the great Purpose is to serve. Hv
ing a capacity of 260 patient*, or for
more in Emergencies, it is equipped
with the latest medical and surgical
facilities, and iz furnished with cor
responding care.
To say that this unit, which is the
first of four ultimately to be built,
represents an expenditure of one and
a half million dollars, given but a
ifcint idea of its Important The
larger meaning lies in the
far-Becing spirit behind those
factions which have "made possible
the Wesley Memorial of today. It. Ig
only justice to add that of a host who
have given uml served. Mr. Asa (J.
Candler, Sr., stands out as the self
effacing but indisputable leader.
Without his unmeasured find un
wearying philanthropy, so great an
enterprise could hardly have been
projected and certainly could not have
been pressed to so speedy and splen
did a consummation." For years ha
fins bestowed upon the plan not only
large means, but also Invaluable time
as President of the board of trusted,
working and giving with that unpre
tending yet loyalty which
marks him nsr one "of Georgia’s most
constructive leaders and most useful
citizen.
Wesley Memorial Hospital, the
Johns Hopkins of the South, will be
come ghe pride of Georgians. Every
Methodist in the State has an oppor
tunity of contributing in a small way
to the success of this splendid insti
tution by joining the golden cross.

“1 had heard of Cardui, and thought it
