MAN AFCOT SEES SOMETHING
Notices Slight Abatement Of Air Of
Superiority in Demeanor of
Automobiles.

do you know, think observe, y
said man who goes afoOt, "a slight
abatement of the air of superiority and
contemptuous exaltation that has long
characterized the faces and demeanor
of those who ride past in automobiles?
1t may be but slight, but l thing it is
noticeable.
They are not quite so superior and
exalted to the common herd afoot as
they were. They still loll back as the
chauffeur honks his horn or sounds his
chromatic bugle and they still think,
If they think of you at all, that it is
up to you to jump if you don't want
to get run down; but think that just
a trace of TIE original superciliousness
has gone.
You see, the automobile has now
become more or less familiar to some
people, and these people, l think, now
show little less hauteur; enough less,
| think, so that you can notice it.
Those still new TO the machine reveal
that fact plainly, but those now more
accustomed to it are now, it seems to
me, shade, just a shade, less indif-
ferent to you than they were. Signs
of ordinary humanity are coming back
into their countenances.
Not but what you have to jump
just the same when they come, but

gard as hopeful. highly hopeful.

Sir Walter Raleigh ana burned TWO
heretics at the stake. He involved his
whole country in war because a for
eign princess would not marry his son.
He allowed his own daughter to die In
poverty. He had nothing to do with
the translation of the Scriptures except
that he authorized 1t and gave some
general directions. Yet this work that
has had so profound an influence on
English speaking people, this well Of
English undefiled," is known as the
king James version" The lacking on
of that name is almost blasphemous.
Credit Given Puritans.
Much of the credit for the agitation
that led to the making of the author
lied version is due to the Puritans.
There were so many translations and
so much confusion in consequence that
the desire became general to have one
standard text that would be authorita-
tive In settling disputes as to interpre-
tations There were two views as to
the way to arrive at such standard.
One was the revision of the German
Bible; the other was the making Of
new translation.
In 1904 conference was held in
London to settle the matter. The king
decided the question In favor of the
new translation. His reason was as
oblique and peculiar as his character.
He was determined to make the Puri-
tans and other dissenters conform"
They had been urging a new transla-
ton. Now let them have it and be
compelled to abide by It 1t may be |
said in passing that when the au-
thorized version appeared the indie
pendent sects did abide by it gladly. |
Yet they did not conform" to the
church any more than be-
fore. They continued to dissent until
James own son, Charles l., was be-
headed and England established a
uIder Oliver Cromwell,
a Puritan. But that is getting ahead

Cromwell Bible Next.

The next year, 1910, came the
great" Bible, likewise called Crom-
wells, also Cranmer's. This was es-
sentialy Coverdales translation with
a few changes. 1t was published by
Thomas Cromwell's order and was the
first Bible appointed to be used in
the churches" likewise the first to be
chained to the reading desks. No
wonder there was subsequent
movement for religious freedom when
the Bible was in chains!
Twenty years after the publication
of the great" Bible appeared the Gene
van translation made by some English
religious refugees who had Joined John
Calvin at Geneva. This was the first
one printed. In Roman type and divid-
ed into verses, likewise the first to
give supplied words in italics. 1t re-
manned the most popular edition until
the appearance of the King James
version, a matter OF fifty years. To
collectors this is known as the "breech-
es'' Bible because of the following pas
sage from Genesis: "Then the eyes of
them both were opened. and they knew
that they were naked. and they sewed
figge tree leaves together and made
themselves Breeches." Was this far
of suggestion of the trouserine or ha-
rem skirt?
In 1868 was published the Bishops
Bible" authorized by the bishops Of
the established church. With all this

God in his wisdom ever permitted any
thing so altogether admirable as the
authorized English version of the BIZ
BILE to be called by the name of so
worthless a monarch as King James is
more than mere mortal man can ever
hope to understand. 1t is one Of those
tricks of fate which confound the op-
timist and shake the faith of those
who believe in ultimate justice.

TIE July f Celebration

There are intelligent ladies of
South Carolina, old and young,
who are great admirers of Tom Wat
son, and who do not want office,
and l believe there are men here who
support Watson who are too intelli
gent to want Office.
We all are not ignorant to the
extent that we do not admire the
brainest and back-boniest little man
in the South. When Georgia gets
tired of her Cicero let her run him
over here, for some may need to
smell a little of his birthstone and
blue streak.
However, South Carolina did not
have one in the twenty-three desert
ers who were bought over to Cannon
to make high tariff and to make the
poor man poorer.
No, South Carolina did not vote
with the radicals to sustain Can
non. Had they done so they would
now be good home-stayers as Pussy
foot Bill.

When Tom Watson of Georgia,

it. There are ladies present.

bring in joke on you, but they can't
do it now. They always get the joke
on themselves, if they try it. We re-
