\Vh’cn . 1.11) sought to take a
prisoner from the jail at Savan-
nah Ga. to lynch him, they faced
a battery of gatling guns presid-
ed over by a determined sheriff.
One man was killed and others
were wounded before it dawned
on the mob that its quest was
perilous as well as lawless. Then
it melted away, and the prisoner
was left to the normal course of
justice.
That sheriff was just as “hu-
man” and probablv understood
just as well the viewpoint of that
mob. as any of the other Georgia
sheriffs who in times past have
yielded to violent threats and
surrendered their prisoners for
hanging or burning. But he had
a stronger realization of the
sovereignty of law and a stronger
backbone. And today. no doubt,
most of the men who were in that
crowd are grateful to him for
keeping them, by force. from par-
ticipation in a mob murder.
That is an excellent way to pre-
vent lynchings—when backed up
as it should be by a prompt and
honest trial of the prisoner. It is
also a good use of gelling guns.

Physical Examination
The National llculth Council
celebrated July 4 by starting a
health campaign which will last a
year. Its first goal is to induce
10,,000000 persons to undergo
thorough physical examination.
The council membership includes
most of the health- eonserx ing and
health promoting organizations of
the country. They are agreed
that if the physical examination
were made a routine matter by
more persons there would result
a very great reduction in prevent-
able disease and death.
The physical examination dis-
closes slight defects while they
are still remediable. teeth that
need filling, eyes that need glas-
ses, weak places that need
strengthening. It discloses also
more serious troubles, frequently
in time to check them or eliminate
them entirely. It is indeed a di-
sease-«preventcr and a health-pro-
moter.
Many persons are afraid of the
physical examination or afraid of
going to a doctor before they are
in obvious ill health. They think
of doctors as inseparable from
sickness instead of thinking of
them as primarily connected with
health.
It is an old and mistaken notion,
however, which the best doctors
of the present day are trying to
dispel.

Champenols of the French ministry

historical inaccuracies in the movies.
The movies try to make history like
fiction. playing up its romance and
adventure. and putting the soil. pedal
on it: real oelf which is sordid. de-
pressing and unusually dull. The nine-
tcnths of the Battle of Waterloo. ‘un-
recorded in moot historical versions.

to the imagination. Howexer. that's
characteristic of history in general.

FOOTBALL
Newspapers in Poland and they

has become the Polish national game.

a football play.
Poland apparently has war in its

COL'RAGE
A woman in a dentist's chair will
stand twice as much punishment on
a man. says Dr. Catherine V. O'Mcara.
practicing dentist. formerly of the
staff of Forsyth Dental Infirmary.
"The average man begin: to whine
when he gets into the dentist's chair.
Freqquently he tells you his nerves
are a bit unstrung . . . and invaria-
bly ho hollers before he is hurt."
A woman's courage is the real
thing. A man‘s courage usually is
daredevilism seeking applause for
vanity—or plain foolishness.
