Does it not afford the best evidence

Sons man and wife and recognizes the
sole right and power of the state to
-annul that marriage is not this such
a blending of church and state as IS
declared against by both bodies?
It was said by one of those arguing
in favor OF the minority report that lit
is said we could follow the Prayc
book, but there is not a word in it
which says that a person who has been
divorced because of adultery on the
part of the other should moi remarry.'
Maybe not, but IN the marriage servi e
contained in the Prayer book each par
ty k the solemn vow to take the
other for husband or wife until death
us do part. That certainly excludes
the idea of anything but death severing
the marriage tie. Any provision in the
laws Of the church recognizing the
power Of the civil law to sever this
tie is inconsistent with this part of
the marriage service. And If the right
is to be recognized by the church then
the wording of the marriage service
should be changed so as to conform to
the rules and canons Of the church
1t should be made to read until death
or the civil law us do part"
The contention of the minority mem
bers Of h committee may be correct,
and that it would not be right for the
church to prohibit the performance
under any circumstances by one of its
ministers OF the marriage rite where
one of the Parties had a divorced hus-
band or wife living, blu to an outsider
1t seems that If such be the case it
would be more consistent for the
church to make some provision for an
nulling the former religious rite before
performing the second and also amend
the wording of the vows in the mar
rage ceremony above referred to which
Is seemingly in conflict with recognition
Of the right Of divorce under any CIR
cumstances.

The solicitor Of the district in South
Carolina in which is situated the coun-
ty OF Kershaw has made his report
TO the governor on the recent lynch
ing in that county of the white man
Morrison. He says he can get no evil
dence on which to prosecute the
1ynchers. The man for whose MUIR
der Morrison was lynched was hts
fourth victim. He killed this one be-
cause he refused to loan his slayer ten
cents. We are told that some of the
preachers of the vicinity say 'amen',
to the hanging of Morrison, and
among the citizens there are those
who openly declare it was a"reaI pious
lynching." AS long as such sentiments
prevail among the people there is no
use in trying to secure a jury which
will convict men of the crime of
lynching in such cases.

Carthy, of the state department of ag-

paper manufacture. From it the follow

orally used in printing newspapers is
made from pulp Of the white and the
black spruce. The supply of this wood
comes from the Adirondack mountains
of New York, from Maine and from
Canada. The supply is growing scarcer
each year and hence the price of paper
for newspapers is increasing yearly.
There are in western North Carolina
