"Gone With
PROBABLY few people 8re aware of it, but this is Good
Book week. It would appear fitting, therefore, to say a few
woVds, about one of the current beat sellers "Gone With the
Wind" which is certainly a good book, very good indeed.
According to the press notices, "Gone With the Wind" is
the work of a comparatively young girl, Margaret Mitchell, who
was born in Atlanta, Georgia and worked for some tine as a
special feature writer on one of the Atlanta newspapers.
The book draws a picture and what a vivid, unforgettable
picture 1 of Atlanta and its environs, just before, during and
after the Civil war. The chief character is Scarlett 0'llara,
laughter of a hot blooded Irish emigre, who wcoed and finally
non, the charming and competent daughter of a Charleston
irwtoorar, became the prosperous, hard-drinking and rough rid
ing master of Tar, a typical pre-war cotton plantation of the
Did South, and Scarlett was the eldest of their three children
beautiful, '.'apable and ruthless.
We think "chief character" is better than heroirus. for
while the book is essentially the life story of Scarlett, there is
nothing romantic in the characterization or treatmeni of this
girl, who with an extraordinary singleness of purpose, unscrup
ulous and pitiless, fights thru youth, motherhood and matur
ity, for survival, personal and material, during the most devas
tating catastrophe that ever visited any section of this country,
since Christopher Columbus discovered it.
HOWEVER we are not going
time nnr flttcmnt. nnvrhino-
book. We happen to be interested, at the moment in just one
phase of it.
This is the ficture, "Gone With the Wind" gives of the Civil
war from the southern standpoint.
There have been many novels
this is the only one, at least in recent years, which brings
that war HOME, so to speak, from the viewpoint of those in the
South, who participated in it. The book has been criticized as
being too sympathetic to the South, but to our mind, siu.'h a
criticism is not justified. We can't qualify as an expert, but our
judgment is the book, while sympathetic is also entirely real
istic, gives a faithful picture, of the social, economic and
physical character of tho far South, during the Civil war and
reconstruction following it with a photographic Faithfulness.
THE lesson of the book, from the standpoint of war, is this.
Scarlett is no more romantically treated, than was Becky
Sharp, but from a modern standpoint the Civil war, was essen
tially romantic It was a clash between two social orders, be
tween two systems of economics, between the declining Cavr.licr
ind the up-and-coming Yankee trader, and it was fought before
he machine age, in any real senae had developed.
It was therefore a conflict of color, action, and movemr-nt.
There was ample play for individual action, initiative and
leadership, There were no big guns, no tanks, no flame throw
ers, no poison gas, taking the war as a whole it was a clash
not so much between armies, certainly not mechanized armies,
as between individuals, in a way of speaking a hand-to-hand
fight. The individual from lowest to highest rank always
counted, he wasn't just a cog in a huge machine with, an
identification number around his neck, he was a man, John
Jones of Boston, Massachusetts or Rouce Randolph of Charles
ton, S. C, nnd as long as he lasted he counted as such. And
whon he was dead he still counted. After tho war of the
Rebellion there wcro no unknown soldier ccntopaths the
personal quality endured, and it is the personal quality that
mokes romance.
k ND yet behind the lines, for the defeated forces in the
South, what suffering, what desolation and horror, what
ruin, material and moral I It was in fact General Sherman, on
that famous, for one Bide infamous to the other, march from
Atlanta to the sea, who coined the final and unanswerable
indictment of a conflict that was still romantic "War is hell I"
AS the World war proved, the day of a victorious war, in
the sense that the North in 1865 was victorious, has van
ished. Under modern conditions thero can be no victor, there
can only be varying degrees in defeat.
And yet what do we see today, practically the entire world
feverishly, insanely, preparing for war, greater armies, larger
armaments, stronger fleets all civilization, to the east and to
the west, busily engaged in what amounts only to digging the
grave for that civilization. Truly a world gone mad I
So quite aside from ita value as a thrilling story, and a
picture of ihe Civil War south, that wo prcdiot will becomo a
part of our permanent American literature, we welcome the
fact "Gone With the Wind" has become the most popular book
of the day, because we feel that picture of what war was nearly
75 years age. will strengthen the determination of tho people
of this country, to do everything in their power, to prevent war
in the future Above all to prevent it in the only way it can
ho prevented, by preparing themselves to make those sacrifices,
which must he made, in one way or another by each and every,
one of them, if the world and this oountry as a part of it is
to have peace.
For this much is certain. War on a large scale for the world
today, will as surely make "Gone With the Wind" the perfect
epitaph, for what, we regard as modern civilization, as it was,
for tha Old South, in 18611

CHIROPODY
The modern chiropodist Is required
by law to have an adequate training
for-his work. The young man or
young woman
who desires to
practice chirop
ody or podiatry
must f urnlah
evidence of hav-
lff. i log completed a
V fV 1 regular four-year:
high acjhool
course, and then
must attend &
recognl&e'd school
of dhlropody or
podiatry covering
one school year
of not lees than
eight months, and finally pass an
examination to obtain a license from
the state,:, Finally the law requires
that the chiropodist or podiatrist
shall register thla license with the
county clerk or other designated au
thority In the community where he
or she engages In practice. Unregister
ed persons who practice podiatry or
chiropody are subject to prosecution.
This recognition and regulation of
the practice of chiropody Is a safety
precaution. The public In the past
haa been unwary In submitting to
the care of unqualified persons who
held themselves out as being capable
of caring for and treating ailments
of the feet.
Some schools give podiatry courses
far above the minimum requirements
above described for practitioners who
desire to make themselves more ef
ficient and capable.
Graduates of such podiatry schools
are scientifically qualified to treat
foot troubles of any kind. They are
not In competition with physicians i
but rather cooperate with the phy
sician for the best Interest of the
patient.
The public should learn to dis
tinguish tho qualified chlrodoplst or
podiatrist from the trick "foot spec
ialist." The qualified chlropcdst or podia
trist understands and applies the
principles of asepsis In his or her
work, and the quack does not. This
may not mean much to the unlnltl-1
ated layman but It Is the difference
between safety and septicemia
("blood-poisoning") following minor
surgical treatment of the foot.

Is regulated by law. It behooves the

podist (podiatrist) he purpose to
consult Is a duly registered licensed
practitioner and not Just a clerk,
salesman or mechanic with large pre
tentlons.
One commendable result of the
higher standards promoted by these
better schools of chiropody Is that
the people are learning to give the
feet better care In health, and their
feet are certainly receiving better
treatment In disease.
Even today a good many physicians
are pretty helpless when confronted.
with complaints of such ailments as
corns, bunions, weak feet, flat feet,
etc., but now that well trained
podiatrist (chiropodists) are to be
found In every large community it
doesn't matter so muoh.
Whether your Interest Is In beauty,
comfort or efficiency, it pays to take
good care of the feet.

Communications
.still Fears a Dictatorship
To the Editor:
Will you allow me once more a
place In your communications col
umn? I wish to ask you to explain
to ' your readers why we must not
believe that we, aa a nation, are
heading toward a dlctatorshp. I
earnestly hopo wo are not. But please
tell ua what ground there is for such
a hope. Did not Stalin, Mussolini
and Hitler all come to their present
power on the slogan, "Down with the
oppressing rich?" or lta equivalent?
And la not that the slogan which
elected Mr, Roosevelt? Except for the
supreme court, has not Mr. Roose
velt already had aa much power aa
any of these men?
Two years ago my wife died In
Chlno, Calif. Unless somebody lied,
Mr. Roosevelt said I had to pay at
least 995.00 to have her body carried
three miles for cremation.. I am a
loyal citizen when laws are Just. At
that time J became a rebel, when I
found that the county would pay
$35 for the same service, I paid the
undertaker $50 and dared him to sue
me. Up to date he has not done It.
A dictatorship Is the best form of
government. If the dictator is both
wise and good. Our president haa
been urged many times to call the
nation to prayer and repentance
Does hla refusal Indicate that he Is
both wise and good?
I have recently been reading the
prophecies of Jeremiah and Ezektel
who prophesied Just before the de
struction of Jerusalem and the beau
tiful temple of Solomon. They tried
to call the nation to repentance:
they tried tn vain, and God said. "I
have taken away my peace from this
people." Jer. 16:5. .See also 21:4. Has
Ood said the same concerning our
people? I still hope not. Please give
me some ground for that hope.
More than one-third of our peo
ple voted against Roosevelt, but their
ballot, under our system of govern
ment, will give them practically no
representation In congress. I believe
that that third Included the greatest
part of that portion of our people
who are. disturbed bv our lawlessness
and sin. For which candidate did the
openly evil vote, think you.
Up to the present moment those
of us who are opposed to Mr, Roose
velt's polioses have the supreme
court for our protection. Last winter,
an admirer of Roosevelt (holding a
job under the government) told me
that Roosevelt will do away with
the court. I laughed theo. but I have
quit laughing Hasn't the nation said
to him, go ahead and do a you
please? Mr. editor, you misely called
our attention to the fact that we
have the ballot: that In Oermany
there was only the one name. Hitler,
on the ballot In the recent election
W'll that be the case here In ltMO?
If not whv not? For the first time
In mv 68 years I am disturbed by
the outcome of an election. We
fcbur.rianily deservf the wrath of God.
if there la a God of righteouanesa!
Haa he 'taken away his peace" from
us? How about the strikes. Will you
give me some ground for hope that
all Is well; some other ground than
that we are such a damned smart
people that God cannot send evil
upon ua when we despise his law.

It la very doubtful, however, that

Are desirable. The trouble comes
