It is a pleasure to know that the
people of Raleigh utterly repudiate
the "ovation" which was rendered
Boyle on his acquittal. The greatest
scoundrel that has ever been tried in
North Carolina within the recollec-
ton of this writer was hanged at
Pittsboro last Friday. The next to
him in villainy was the smooth faced
priest who was applauded when the
jury found that he was not guilty Of
the charge preferred. One is entitled
to no more respect than tie other.
Each is guilty of horrible crime
against God and humanity, and
though the statutes Of North Carolina
were NOT SO framed as to convict
Boyle, he nevertheless merits and re-
ceives the contempt Of all honest men,
for he is self confessed scoundrel
deep in infamy.
Judge McRae made careful inquiry
trying to ascertain who started the a, /.
plause, but failed, and he scored the
unknown persons in severe words. The
Chronicle says it was begun by
"roughs," and that the feeling in Ra-
leigh is against Boyle. We are sin
cerely glad to know it. The scene was
sickening.
The Greensboro North State saws:
s'The Mocksville Times wants Joe
Caldwell for Governor. If he will
agree to get him military uniform, a
spike, and dance at all the balls given
in his honor, we believe we will go
for him. He would make a lam up
good Governor.

4 Remarkable Book by Rev. T. Dewitt
TalmaGe, ID. ID.

This is said to be year Of remarka
bic books, but doubtless the most re-
markabIe that will appear for some
time to come is Rev. n. Dewitt Tai
makes new work on the Life Of
Christi and "Palestine and its People,
Some idea of what the book contains
and how it was prepared may be OBJ
tanned by reading the following eX-
tract from the Doctors preface:
sin my American hoI E, on the At
lantic, on Mediterranean, or cameps
back, on mules back, on horseback,
under chandelier, by dim candle in
tent, on Lake Gallilee, in convent, at
Bethel where Jacobs pillow was stuffed
with dreams, and the angels of the lad
der landed; at the brook Elah, from
which little David picked up the am
munition Of five smooth stone four
more than was needed for crushing like
All egg-shell the skull of Goliath; in the
Valley of Ajalon, over which, at
Joshua's command, Astronomy halted;
on the plain Of Esdraelon, the battle
field of ages, lis long red flowers sug-
gestive of the blood dashed to the bits
of the horses brides; amid the shat
tered masonry Of Jericho, in Jerusalem
that overshadows all other cities in re-
miniscence, at Cana where plain water
became festal beverage, on Calvary
whose aslant and ruptured rocks still
show the effects of the earthquake at
the awful hemorrhages of the five
wounds that purchased the worlds
rescue, and with my hand mittened
from the storm, or wet from the Jordan,
or barred to the sun, or gliding over
smooth table, this book has been writ
ten.n
This book will certainly be worth
reading ard preserving. 1t is not only
life of Christ from an entirely new
standpoint, but it is also 4 very inter-
esting history of 4 country and people
who occupy prominent place in the
thoughts and feelings Of all Christian
nations. The large number Of excel
lent pictures of places and scenery in
the Holy Land with which thevolume
is illustrated, give it u special interest
and value. We cannot all go to PaIas-
tine, but this elegant book, through
the aid Of its pictures and DIR. Talmage's
wonderful descriptions accompanying
them, brings Palestine to our very doors.
The book is indeed positive necessity
to proper understanding Of the Bible
accounts Of places and events. Wecan
understand and appreciate Bible his
tory all tie better when we see photo
graphic representations of the places
where this history was made. "From
Manger TO Throne" makes new era
in the literature Of the Bible Lands,
and we are not surprised to learn that
the demand for the book is phenome-
nal. 1t is sold or the exclusive terri
tory basis, and persons desiring to Sc
cure agencies will find the publishers

STORY OF THE 3IEXICAN AR51S.
Legendary Account OF the Founding of the
Aztec Capital.

TRANSLATED from FL Par!ido Liberal !
The origin Of the Mexican coat-of-
arms IS to be found in ancient tradi-
tlons. The eagle was the emblem of
the primitive Mexican>, but when
Mexican independence was overthrowN
by Spanish conquest new quarterings
were introduced, and only so much of
the original symbols remained as would
serve to emphasize the glory of the
conquerers. When our independence
was restored a just regard for tradition
led to the rehabilitation of the ancient
coat-of-arms.
The law of April Il, 1923, directed
that the arms should be The Mexican
eagle, resting OF the left claw at the
top Of nopal (plant of the genus cac-
tus.) The nopal grows on rock in the
midst of a lake. The eagle grasps g
serpent in his right claw, and is in the
act of tearing it to pieces with its beak.
Two branches, one of laurel, and the
other of evergreen oak, adorn these
arm, in conformity with the design
employed by the ruler of the first
champions Of independence"
The allegory thus depicted is explain
ed by the following legend:
The Aztec came from remote coun-
try called Aztlan, and, after long
peregrination, rested in Chapu!tepec.
lnasmuch as they We're afflicted and
beset by various iDsidious enemies, WHO
attacked them with the cunning or SER
pents, their priests searched for spot
in which they might establish them
selves permanently. Finally they dis
covered Il point on the shore of lake
where an eagle, perched upon nopal,
was devouring serpent. This seemed
a good omen, and accordingly they
chose this point, believing that in so
doing they were obeying the will of
their gods. They founded there the
city of Tenschtitlan, which to-day is
the populous City of Mexico.

TEACHERS COLUMN.
Country Schools.

What our country needs As much as
anything else to build it up is good
system Of common schools. Without
good schools in the rural districts there
is gradual but sure decline.
The towns and cities as rule nave
good and efficient schools which run
eight OF nine months in the year. The
teachers are very we'll paid, the chill
dren attend regularly, and generally
everything moves along well.
The above is not the casein the coun-
try. There we find the school term
very often not more than three or four
months. The teachers are paid sInall
salaries. and the children are irregular
in attendance. The towns and cities
have betterbuildings than the country,
and better school furniture.
Nine-tenths of the children in New
berry County are forced to get their
education, if they are educated at all,
in the country schools. The people OF
this country are not able to educate
their children in the towns. A>teW
NAV be, but the great majority are not.
They must send their children to
school at their homes.
Let as see, however, how much it
would cost to run good school eight
months in the year. A first class
teacher can be employed for $50 per
month, and surely this is not more
than he is worth. The free schoolfund
amounts to 500. There are thirty
children in attendance. We find then
that the cost of educating one child for
year is only SO. Who can say this
is high tuition? There are hundreds
Of people, however, who will say that
they are unable to pay $40 year, and
some of the same people would send q
boy or girl to town to be educated al
a cost Of Sl75 year.
We want good primary and gram
mar scholars in the country, schools
that will run at least six months ID the
year. 1t is the duty Of the people to
use every effort to bring about such a
state of affairs. It is in their power.
Unless they do their duty they are
morally responsible to the State for an
ignorant citizenship.

4 BIRD STORY.
The Way Whippoorwil! Was Cared For
From the New York sun.

From the New York sun.
On 4 sultry night last moIth Mrs.
a. II. Ellsworth, OF Jackson Hollow,
was awakened by the Tapping Of wings
at one of the windows of her bed room.
She struck light AID found that a
female whippoorw;ll had got wedged
in between the screen and the sash,
that the bird was unable to free herself,
and that one of her wings was broken.
Mrs. Ellsworth took pity on the wound
ed bird, bound up the broken wing as
well rs she knew how, and placed her
in a canary's cage for the night.
In the morning Mrs. Ellsworth found
that the whippoorwill, with the eNcep-
ton of the broken wing, WAS all right,
and she fed the bird and hung the
cage on the porch, intending to set her
free as soon rs she was able to fly.
During the morning the wliippoorwill
sung out a number Of times, and along
in the forenoon Mrs. Ellsworth noticed
that another whippoorwill was fitting
around the cage. She cuurlu':r that
the wounded bird had succeeded in
| calling her mate from j row Of willows
| down by the creek, and her conclusion
| proved to be correct.
The male whippoorwill alighted on
| the rim of the cage and coaXed like 4
good fellow for his wife to come out
| and sail away with him to their home
among the Willows and then they put
their bills together between the wires
and had real sweet domestic kissing
spell for three or four minutes, the wife
seeming to convey to her anxious hus-
band an understanding of the fact that
she would be delighted to accompany
him if she only had two we'll wings.
Anyhow, the male appeared to un-
derstand pretty soon that his wife was
a cripple, and in prison, too, for when
they had kissed one another all they
cared to, just then the male flew away
| toward the brook. In little while he
returned with his bill of food, which
he literally dealt out to his wife from
his perch on the rim Of the cage. 1t
tasted better to her than the food that
Mrs. Ellsworth had put into the cage.
Mrs. Ellsworth said, and during the
day he came and went "a score of times.
Mrs. Ellsworth left the cage out at
night, so that the wife might be as
near to her husband as possible and the
male roasted on lilac bush close by.
He carried lots of food to his wife each
day and in about fortnight her wing
got we'll Then Mrs. Ellsworth turned
her loose. Her mate joined her imme-
diately and the happy pair sailed off
toward the row of willows, singing a
song of gladness on the way.

Ex-Gov. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia,

believe that he is still one the finest
horsemen in the United States. The

We would advise every teacher in
the common schools to take some good
educational paper, paper that will III
struct and help along in school work.
Young and inexperienced teachers es-

and understand the principles of school
government and the best methods of
teaching. The School Journal, a
weekly paper or the Teachers Institute,
a monthly paper are among the best
that We have seen. Any teacher who
subscribes to one or both Of these papers
will be highly improved by the inform
alton they give.
