LARGE DOCKET AWAITS
JUDGE McCOOL HERE
CHlActRY COURT MONDAY
While the Docket is Large. II Is
Made Up oi unlmportant
Cases, and Can be Quick
Iy Disposed OF

Monday marks the beginning
Of the spring term of chancery
court, and while a heavy docket
awaits the coming of Judge Nc
Cool. il IA made up largely Of
cases Of an unimportant nature.
and can be quickly disposed Of.
The matrimonial alliances of
negroes often fail to bring peace
and happiness. and divorce cases
in which blacks are the litigants
crowd the docket at every session
of chancery court. The impend-
ing term is no exception to the
rule, and a great portion of Judge
McCool's time will be taken up
in listening to tales of woe from
descendants of Ham whose mari
tai unions have failed to bring
the bliss and contentment which
they anticipated.
Probably the most important
case on the docket is that of R.
B. Tennison VS.. W. F. and J. C.
Tennison. In this case the
plaintiff seeks to recover certain
property now held by plaintiffs
which he claims he has the right
to redeem, such right, so it is
alleged, having been a part of
the original contract and deed
conveying the property to de-
PENDANTS. The case has been in
court for several years, but is
now in such shape that Judge
McCool is expected to render his
final decision at the impend-
ing term.

sense people have when they are
trying to be fair to each other in
stead of over reaching and cheat
ing.
If he found a man who could
not read, trying not to cheat and
over reach others, he thought
him a better Judge Of truth than
a prime minister. He believed
that God made all men with sense
enough to be honest.
At a time when he would have
been hanged by a Tory prime
minister, IL caught, he said that
truth loves an appeal to the com
mon sense of mankind, and that
He who made all men, made the
truths necessary for human hap
piness obvious to all"
This was his answer after he
had been declared a traitor.
He spent his life trying to prove
that politics may be improved by
less cheating and shooting. He
thought that finally nearly every
one would agree with him that
common honesty and commnE
sense are enough to make the best
government on earth.

Belief of Samuel Adams
BY WILLIAM VINCENT BYARs.

TT was Samuel Adams, one OF
the greatest founders of the
United States, who said that
truth loves an appeal to the
common sense of mankind"
1t was this thought which made
him powerful.
1t made him the greatest Dem
ocratio leader Of New England in
the eighteenth century.
He was born in Boston in 1922,
when all New Englanders were
royalists. He was born rich. His
family made money out of a brew
cry, He lost money in politics,
so that when he died in 1903 he
had barely enough to pay for his
funeral.
He had helped to found the
United States. He held office
many years, but he was afraid
to make money.
This was the only thing he was
afug2d Of. He was afraid that
v .)e did not keep himself as poor
g most other people he would
lose his common sense.
He meant by common sense the

No man can be happy without those
three blessings. Any man can be
happy with them
Even though he is saddened by the
sorrow he sees about him. the sor-
row which results from striving after
the needless things of earth; after
more than we need; after what does
not belong to US; after the possessions
Of others.
There would be no war; no indus
trial problems; no prisons; no poor
houses; no white slaves; no sex sins;
If men and women all set forth early
In life on that threefold quest-for
peace Of mind, for self-respect, for
the love of their fellow men.
That is all any soul is seeking; that
is all any soul desires; becsc,e that
is all there is in life worth living for.
Yet is there war, and strihv, and ha-
tired; and sin; and sor~~w and an
guish; and misery and Soverty.
Because men have -ot yet learned
that there is only one need in the
world
And the need o. .ne world is
LOVE.
