The European war drags on perhaps somewhat heavily from the viewpoint or the spectator at this distance. The same pounding at.

tie Souime. the same furious. assaults at Verdun continue Jay after day. with seemingly little impression made though it is loudly heraldPtl when the Allied forces make a gain ox some 310 or 500 yards. The same wholesale slaughter is going on as in the wars first stages but it makes little impression and excites little interest because of its very sameness.

There may be much that is brilliant about it but its brilliance i not of the apparent sort. It is warfare reduced to a basis of business science a continued pounding. even though each stroke means a million shells a day upon the weakest point a point yet I I fo strong enough to resist any great or extraordinary advances. The Russian drive on the eastern front has likewise lost in interest at this distance because the spectacular has disappeared and it is jut a cold monotonous push against a force that has had opportunity to strengthen UsH and present somewhat greater resisting power. The momentary outbreak in the Balkans where the central powers appear to be giving way under Allied assaults is just now the most interesting theater of the earn.

paign perhaps the more so because or suggested Bulgar disaffection. The war ha entered into ts third year. The great Allied offensive began shortly before the closp of the second. As yet It has accomplished in the vision of specta- tors at this distance. next to nothing.

We have a vague impression that Germany has been put upon the defensive that the Ames have gained one or two minor vantage points. and that is about all. We have been led to conclude from this some weeks ago that the war had begun to draw toward Us close that the Teutonic armies had been put upon the defensive. We have almost reached the point of mak lzig calculations upon the wars end based upon the heavy Allied blows at every point. But so far these blows have scarcely made a.

dent at least not a visible one. It Is an offensive and that Is all. Along with it all the rest or the world Is becoming more and more convinced that there Is going to be no peace until one side or the other is beaten. sufficiently beaten to desire peace and desire it so ardently that it Is ready to make big concessions. That day is still far on.

The Allied offensive may have been a beginning of the end but It Is a long way yet to the turn In the lane. Even if Germany is ready for peace upon conditions England and France re not ready to consider any condition ex. cept those of their own making nor Is there any likelihood that they soon will be. So with constant hammering the war drags on. Men pre slaughtered and heroes are going to martyrdom very day and an we mow about it i that the Ames advanced so many yards on the Somme or that the French were driven back so many yards at Verdun or vice versa.

We can only wait and hope for the end tearing it is yet tar off but knowing not when It will come. We are at least Iortu. nate In having adjusted our affairs to chaos in Europe so that we can move on In spite of it and be prepared for peace whet it shall have been declared. ROW WAR HELPS. English newspapers have told of how the war has helped In the moral uplift of the vagrant population of the emptying of Jails due to the lessening of crime because ot employment offered to the vicious Idlefor workers are everywhere in demand at prices they could not formerly command- the unskilled with the skilled and all are profitably busy.

In this connection The Washington Time Interesting article ton "Ne'er-Dota Wuhtngou by War. the taBttropehas oionje tneitmaj i Sslffii ATLANTA'S FINAL CALL Atlanta cans every citizen today to duty. That duty ts at the ballot box a vote for Asa G. Candler for mayor. The- campaign has be a short and somewhat vigorous one made- necessarily vigorous and somewhat emphatic through the policy of 1 and misrepresentation which Mr.

Candlers opponent has pursued. Notwithstanding that there has been no retort in kind on the partof the Candler forces they have answered abvise with fact and slander with business argument. The people of Atlanta have seen and appreciated the difference between these two campaigns the one an appeal to the prejudices and passions of men. excited by- misrepresentation the- other a plain cam of business showing of Atlanta's needs and the only means of supplying them. The light has been Ioughtout and Atlanta is going to the polls today to erect Asa G.

Candler mayor the only question involved in the result is as to the size of Mr. Candlers majority. Tonight's figures will tell that. and we have doubt hut that it will be sweeping and overwhelming in tact incomparable in the history of Atlanta's municipal campaigns. There is but one regret and that is it cannot be completely and wholly unanimous.

It is unfortunate that we must be divided however small may he the minority. But we may yet indulge the hope that when it is all done the minority will lay aside its political preference am join the majority for the up- building and the advancement of Atlanta's highest interests. Every man who goes to the polls today. whether he banker merchant mechanic. lawyer doctor.

laborer or whatnot should go with the thought and. feeling that he is casting hi vote for Atlanta anti not for any personal or factional interest. If the voters of Atlanta a of them would do that. should make it unanimous for Mr. Candler notwithstanding opposition.

Atlanta needs this consideration this service as she has never needed it before. Administrative strife. indifference and inattention have brought the city to the lowest ebb it has known in cars With his unpaid schools unprovided for and hundreds of children denied admittance to them with city departments practically all inefficient because of this very administrative indifference Atlanta is on the down grade as she has not been before in a quarter of a century. do not propose to tell again the story of it here. tlantans know it by heart and can say it backwards.

But this much is certain Atlanta proposes to put on the brakes today and put them on hard and fast She is going to stop the descent and stop it now the people of Atlanta are going to put the city hack on a firm and substantial business basis. We are going to make it possible by business administration for Atlanta to pay her debts and meet her obligations. We are going to build and strengthen Atlanta's institutions her schools police sanitary fire department and all of them to an efficiency standard commensurate with Atlanta's needs. are going to do it by putting. able.

strung successful business man into the mayors chair. That man is Asa G. Candler. Your vote for Mr. Uandler today i a vote- fur Atlanta.

Iu to the polls go early and cast it tag places or tile shiftless classes. The testimony or John S. Bennett of the Central Union Mission. Is given as follows Wartime contracts have math it easy for be so-called outers to get a grip upon themselves and go to work. Such prosperity has not visited Washington within the last seven or el ht years he said.

We ha not enough men around the mission house to do the work. and we cannot supply th calls for men to do gardening. painting. wood cutting and other chores. There are fewer drunkards in the city.

and our work consists largely of dealing with women. children and very old men. The old men are of such axe that they can scare carry a market basket. The bodied ones have gone to work. That is at least one phase of uplift due to war and.

considering the good which is being accomplished It la not worth while to philosophize on the subject that It took the misery of millions to bring it about' THE POTENTIAL SrllLF. There is nothing more potent for a bank than a smile and genuine courtesy George E. Nolan a former AUantan is quoted as having said In the course or an address before the Wltham bankers recently In convention at Atlantic City. It Is hard to overestimate their value as a business he goes on to say. To come into the sunshine of one happy disposition is a pleasure to enter an institution where every member of the organization maintains such an attitude develops a de sire to repeat the experience and an uncon' scions tendency to spread the glad tidings.

Which Is only this observant philosopher-banker's way of paraphrasing the familiar old tines Smile And when you smile another smiles And soon there'll miles and mUes Of smiles. And worth while. Because you smile. That is as true as fact and also a tact it is that Ute is not worth while to the man or woman who does not smile who falls in the appreciation or a smiles worth. Indeed Its worth a million dollars and It doesn't cost a cent.

The smile Is coming more. and more Into its own. It is coming to be looked upon and recognized as the open sesame to success in every worthy undertaking and In every other sort of undertaking it has no place. Men in the banks in the marts of trade in the high places are coming more and more to give the smile Its due. As a matter or tact nowadays the high places are achieved only by the men.

whose habit it La to smile men who have learned that a. grouch never did and never will help one to the things worth while. Viewed in the light of a cold business proposition a smile often is a ten-strike. Men place confidence in the man who smiles that la or course the right brand or smile. True some there are who can smile and smile but be villains still1' butsuch re not the winner La the long ruulror their smiles are not true to color.

They re counterfeit. The bank teller who smiles when you ap. proach his wicket. who gives the Impression immediately that he is lad to see yon that he is there to serve and please and accommodate ran la the tort whose smile and. courteous disposition bids fair one day to place.

at the lathe the same principle applies. And a sunny disposition Is coming to I he regarded as a gilt-edged recommendation and an karat asset to the man or woman who possesses it. Potential Where except in its companion the sunbeam can be found a force more powerful Why a. smile is powerful properly applied. It can dominate vast for- tunes sway tremendous business deals consummate the greatest enterprises dispel an angry.

That banker. the former Atlantan and Imbued with the true Atlanta spirit knew what he was talking about when he said further that people like to nock to the pleasant places. People like melody sweet tones. lowers happy laces smiles. Get the habit The Philadelphia Ledger says it seems a contradiction In terms to announce that Mr.

These would soon give the city the big pay rolls without which abundant money cannot be kept in circulation and without which general business cannot laj to have frequent terms of severe depression. Today many of the stores in Atlanta are clamoring. like those in otter parts of the country for goods which American manufacturers are unable to supply.

Box Atlanta Ga. Commends Constitutions Editorial Which Stressed Value of Southern Colleges Editor Constitution I wish to express to you my persons appreciation of the editorial on Schools and Colleges" la your Sunday issue.

I believe the time has come when pur southern people must cease to magnify the Importance of northern Institutions of Learn. ing to the neglect of their own. anocniut begin to appreciate more our own good schools. I am a graduate myself of north- era school. When I went away to northern university after having graduated' at a southern institution 1 ten that we had no schools Lit of HUffident' merit to demand my attention.

I was one of hundreds and thousands olother such students. That was fifteen years ago. However. the time hat now come when the South can boast of as strong institutions for both men and' women as can be had anywhere lathe United States. Nothing pleases me more and nothing more surely Indicates the growth and prosperity of the south than the establishment and maintenance of several great.

schools and colleges here in our. southland. Both. Oglethorpe and Emory universities here in Atlanta are calculated to become as great institutions of learning for men as can be found anywhere in the fatted States. The authorities of Cox college propose' to make- It an southern university for women.

White our sotlthern schools as a rule ate not heavily endowed they have connected with them some of the most scholarly earnest faithful and capable men and women for teachers as grace this continent. and they are doing some of the best work to be found In America. My conviction is that many of our smaller schools with little or no endowment are now doing. and for long years Have been doing. a.

very. superior work. when' compared with great many other Institutions of other sections of our country. While our schools awl colleges are. not dowed as are others we have every reason to they soon wil be.

for we hare learned that no college can much longer claim to be a teal college which ets tb. demands of an exacting public mind- without having large money over and above- that1 which comes from mere tuition fee All our leading schools must now arrange' for Q- dowment. They must meet very demand of' a people of growing culture and Interest la letters and science of government. Again I wish to thank you for your edi to rial and tofelicitate you for such stat meats. I am a great believer In Th Con- titutton and amalways glad to" have It thus Interpret the public need and mind.
