PULLS OFF HIS COAT TO
FIGHT EOR RELIGION

Atlanta, NOV. l3.-Atlanta minis.
tiers are very much interested in the
methods of one of the southern breth-
eren who takes off his coat to fight
the devil, and literally breaches in
his shirt sleeves. The preacher in
question is the Rev. l.. " Lewis, bet
ter known as The Man from China
who has been awakening a new inter
est in the old-time religion in the
south.
He is a man of great oratorial an
dramatic ability and shoots his Ri
BILE truths red hot at his hearers
when his coat becomes too heavy be
fore an eye can wink, off it goes-laid
where it may fall. He pauses only
to beg the ladies not to complain, as
he has sleeves and a collar to his
shirt, which is more than some OF
the ladies can say
But when that collar becomes toe
tight, off it comes, the collar flying
IN che direction and the necktie in
the other. He is literal whirlwiad
in the pulpit.

A TASK FOR TEXAS.

Two hundred known dead and more
missing.
Property worth s25,OOOOOO wiped
out.
Land values depressed for a far
larger amount.
Hundreds of BODYBUILDING settlers
ruined and driven away.
Twenty thousand people driven from
flooded homes and fields in town and
country.
a thousand miles of fertile coastal
plain, and 500 squares miles of river
bottoms; a land of farms, gardens,
Orchards and ranches, transformed for
several days into a fresh water sea
three to eight feet deep
This is a part of the price the people
of Texas have just paid for having
political instead of business manage
ment of the States affairs during the
past quarter century; for being gov.
erned by lawyer-politicians instead of
by engineers, builders and skilled
business men.
Texas has three rivers-the Colo
RADIO, Brazos and Trinity ap-
proximately 500 miles long which
drain its central basins rainfall into
the Gulf of Mexico. Their watersheds
have a combined area of over 10000
square miles. Their valleys embrace

A slate and pencil in the school
room is not permitted these days. The
slate and pencil have been driven from
the school room by commercialized
system, organized for the purpose of
selling tablets and lead pencils and
other things. The strange part of this
fact is the idea that a community of
intelligent men and women will stand
for this hold-up.-Tyler Courier-Times.

there are now.-Athens Review.
If there had been, every fellow had
his own slate and monkeyed only with
his own microbes, so what difference
could it have made? We suppose,
however, the states were left way back
yonder in the time when we carried
our dinners in tin bucket, and staked
our buttermilk bottles in the spring
branch with our top strings to keep 1t
cool. We are moving far away from
those dear old memories.

LANES Def DIDN'T GO.

Not one of us but that can recall
on short notice the ancient recital
about the pastor who objected to the
headgear of a member of his flock,
only to be told that he must fortify
himself with a passage from the
Scriptures. So the next Sunday he
announced his text, "Topnot, come
down." The brethren were astonish-
ed, of course, but investigation showed
that the pastor was within his rights,
the full sentence reading, Let him
that is on the housetop not come
down"
Water Power Lane went to the Fort
Worth conference with the full SEN
tence before him. Being on the house
top ahead of Mayes or Thomas or any
of the rest, he is determined not to
come down, and he so informed the
brethren.
But here's a prediction that Water
Power will eventually hear and heed
the command, "Topknot, come down."

There are many who believe the
eliminating program of the prohibit
tionists is going to be success, and
the number who believe this is grow
ing every day. The high standing Of
the leaders of the movement backed
by the great army supporting them,
together with the intense earnestness
of all, create a dynamic force which
it is believed will sweep all opposition
before it. There is no question but
what the pro candidates for Governor
are themselves convinced of this, and
they are now figuring and triggering
as to how they can succeed in having
the pro standard placed in their hands.
There are many who believe that
neither Lane, Mayes nor Thomas will
land, but that the honor will go to
the Hon. Tom Ball of Houston.
