To the proper understanding of the
real sentiments which brought the colo
nists here. and of the real principles for
the development of which they came. we
must look for q moment to the political
history of the mother country.
The Conquest Of England by William
tho Conqueror, resulted in the inevitable
conflict between the native Saxon and
the Norman carpet-bagger. Three points
of antagonism will suffice to show the
sharpness of this contest:
/. Local Saxon institutions were sup
planted by Norman customs and insu-
tions.
2. The Pope. who had communicated
Harold, the Saxon King, had authorized
William to bring back England to ODE
dencc to the Holy See, and William
brought with him a foreign priesthood
to supplant the local native priest This
resulted in the attempt to uproot the ma
tive religion by q foreign priesthood,
backed by atforeign conqueror.
B. The Saxon chung to tho common
law The Norman brought with him the
foreign civil law.

the Authority Of the church or the state
to determine this relation. Religion
was not the gift of the state or church.
and therefore could be controlled by
neither. The church was but the out
ward sign of an inward force: the visi-
BILE organization of an invisible ele-
ment. In the human soul was to be
found its origin-not in the church.
The church was but the convenient,
visible organism for the proper de-.
velopment OF this invisible relationship
between man and his Maker The
church did not make this relationship,
but out of 1t emerged the church; the
one was original, the other secondary;
tho one fundamental. the other struct-
ural; the one organic, the other func-
tional: and the Reformation may be
said to have culminated in the rebellion
of the human soul against any power,
religious or civil. that sought to sup
plant the responsibility of the indi-
vldual to his Maker by the dogmas of
J ecclesiastcs or the flats of human
rulers. Rebellion against these was
obedience to God.
Power may touch the mans life,
property and family; his respect for

Interest In Recent Convention.

The great state Sunday school conVen- tion which has been in session during the week in Birmingham attracted much attention in Ensley, not only because there are a great many Sunday school workers in the city but because many of them took a prominent part in the exercises of the convention.
 The great chorus of nearly one hundred voices was under the direction of Mr. Steven Allsop, who is the leader of the choir of the First Baptist church of this city, and the splendid music heard at the various sessions of the convention was due in a large measure to his eff forts. Many Ensey people were in the chorus. among them being Misses Lottie Sawyer. Patricia Stribling, Myrla Morris, Frances Reed. Oma D. Reed, Mrs. R. W. Russell and Mrs. Joseph Smith, r R. Kelly, Paul Arnold and Chesley Rogers.
 The same chorus will sing at the First Methodist church of Birmingham Sun day night at the regular service.
 MT. J. $. FallSner was chairman of the committee of ushers, his assistants from Ensley being Messrs. A. C Kicks ana Linza II. Lecroy.

It was one of the last off, cial acts of the retiring mayor, Col M. K. Clements. This is to pay the interest on the bonds issued to build good roads. The people of the county realize that the credit for this great movement is due the city. Had it not been for the city agreeing to divide this money with the county to pay the interest on the bonds, the people never would have voted for them.
