The ORIGIN OF MAN

This was the subject taken by
Rev. w. b. Wilson at the Meth
odist church Sunday morning.
The text was from Genesis,
first chapter and 9th verse,
and Mr.. Wilson contended that
nothing so far in all the realms
of science had been formed to
successfully contradict the
statements of the creation of
man therein made. He explain.
ed that the term, ''six days" "
mentioned in revelati could
easily stand for six periods of
time of uncertain lengths, per-
haps in all covering a million
years or, even more, as the
Greek expression from which
the translation was made, stood
as often for an indefinite as for
a fixed time.
Referring to the Darwinian and
other kindred evolution theor-
les Mr.. Wilson called attention
to the fact that the basis for
them all was supposition, apro-
position which involved mir
acle in the introduction of life
to dead matter, which science
never has and never can explain;
that really the Bible account of
mans origin when viewed in the
brightest lights of science was
the most reasonable after all.
Within the limited time at his
disposal Mr.. Wilson handled
this very deep subject well and
in a very scholarly manner and
upon only one point did he clash
with The News editor-where
he stated his belief that out of
"nothiug" all things were crea-
ted.

MUSTCLEAN UP

The sanitary board appointed
by the commissioners court and
composed of our two physicians,
Drs. Parsons and Stewart and
sheriff Slower, has decided to
invoke the aid of the penal law
against all citizens who AT ONCE
fail or refuse to clean up and
disinfect their premises. To
this end notices have been print
ed and the sheriff has been in.
structed to serve them upon all
persons charged with violation
of the law in these respects and
unless they comply AT ONCE and
"clean up he is ordered to file
complaint against them.
In view of the typhoid cases
already in hand this question of
sanitary regulation is getting to
be quite a serious matter and it
is hoped that all citizens, those
served with notices and those
overlooked in this particular,
will do all they can to assist
the sanitary board In bringing
about change for the better.
Outside of the towns own
filth there.is ABSOLUTELY nothing
here to bring any kind of sick
ness-so our physicians say and
such The News believes.

MAY BAR PHONETIC SPELLING.
Possibility Of a ROw Between the white

Der OF Theoretically spelled words in accord

some months go. The President ap-
p~arently has authority to require the Pub
lie Printer to adopt reformed spelling in all
documents that emsnate from the White
House and the executive departments.
but he has no control over the printing OF
Congress. Public Printer Stillings has
K the liberty to use the phonetic form
in the executive bill and also in the Treasury
estimates which are about to be issued.
Representative James A. Tawney. chair
man OF the House Committee on Appropria-
tions, was asked to-day IL be thought Con-
gress would stand for phonetic spelling.
Il decline to be drawn into a controversy
on that subject. he said with a smile.
Some OF the old graybeards OF both
houses, it's understood, will at the first
opportunity openly express their disap-
proval OF the Use OF phonetic spelling in
documents printed for either house, and
there was an intimation to-day that an
amendment might be Incorporated in one
Of the supply bills prohibiting phonetic
spelling in any publication issued by the
Government.

provision" said a member at the Capitol
