There has been much destructive
superstition abroad in the world con
eerning possession by evil spirits.
Under the form Of belief in wltchcraft
this delusion swept the continents.
Persons were supposed 10 be possessed
with some evil spirit which made them
able 10 destroy others. In the six
teenth century in Geneva 800 persons
we're burned to death as witches. In
one neighborhood Of France 900 per
sons we're burned. In two centuries
100000 persons we're slain as witches
So mighty was the delusion that il
included among ifs victims some OF
the greatest intellects OF all time
such as Chief Justice Matthew Hale
and Sir Edward Coke. and such re-
nowned ministers Of religion as Cotton
Mathers one OF whose books, BENJAMIN
Franklin said. shaped his life-and
Richard Baxter. and Archbishop Gram
mer and Martin Luther; and. among
writer's and philosophers, Lord Bacon.

laughing stock Of all sensible people.

When black man does some wrong

When black man does some wrong
all @Afro-Americans are condemned,
but when one does something which
must, in it's nature, be recognized as
being worthy of commentator he is
said to be an exception to the rule, and
no one but he receives any benefits.
It's poor rule that don't work both
ways. An Afro-American, it is al
alleged, killed white man last Satur-
day night in the vicinity Of Haugh-
Vile, Ind, and as a result fifty-seven
white men employed as coremakers at
the National Malleable Casting com
panys plant at Haughville, are on a
strike because their demand that the
Afro-American employees Of the same
department be discharged was refused
by the company The strikers say
that hat it is only a question of few
days when the whole plant, which en-
ploys about ], 200 men, will be obliged
to close down. To the credit Of the
company officials be it said, they de-
clare they will close down rather than
grant the outrageous demand.
