ing them had the authority, the Divine
revelation for the work. The doctrine
of Apostolic Succession was subse-
quently made a feature of the creeds.
For twelve centuries there was prac-
tically no more Bible study; the Apos-
tolic Bishops had formulated the creeds
as proper statements of true faith.
Revival of Bible Study.
Twelve centuries after the first ex-
preston by the so-called Apostolic
ing had become common. In that year
Tyndale published his translation of
the New Testament in Germany, be-
of the opposition of the English
clergy, and imported it into London,
where the people began to purchase it.
Meantime, the Germans were learning
something of the New Testament
teachings from Luther and his asso-
ciates. But the English bishops bought
up the entire edition of Tyndale's New
Testament, and burned the books.
Several other TRANSACTIONS were sub
sequently brought out. Finally the
bishops gave the people the Bible, but
warned them against any construction
different from the creedS-threatentng
them with eternal torture. Later, the
Roman Catholics produced the Douay
Bible. This was given to the people
with similar threatenings. The con-
f1ict proceeded until 1890, when the BIZ
Bile came into great prominence.

GEORGIA MAN is
RESCUED IN TIME
Resident of Woodstock Finds Himself
Restored After His Physi-
clans Failed.

T. A. Lewis, who lives out on Route
8, Woodstock, Ga, was the victim of
stomach troubles for long time. He
tried the treatments of many doctors.
He tried all sorts of remedies.
His sufferings were a serious handi-
cap to his work
Then he tried Mayr's Wonderful
Remedy. Just as it always does, the
first dose proved to him what could
be done for his ailment. He took the
full treatment; then wrote:
II have taken your wonderful rem
edy and am feeling better than / have
felt in four years.
Your remedy does just what you
claim it will do.
Il tried several doctors, but they
did me no good. l am glad that l
have found your wonderful remedy
l have recommended it to some Of
my neighbors who need it
Mayr's Wonderful Remedy gives per-
manent results for stomach, liver and
intestinal ailments. Eat as much and
whatever you like. No more distress
after eating, pressure of gas in the
stomach and around the heart. Get one
bottle of your druggist now and try it
on an absolute guarantee-if not salts
factory money will be returned.

new FEATURES IN
WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS
WILL ESTABLISH RURAL NURS-
ING SERVICE AND FREE COR
RESPONDENCE SCHOOLS.
IS A STATEWIDE MOVEMENT

The RaouI Foundation Is Working in
Cooperation With Other AssOc1a-
tions Already in Existence in the
State of Georgia.
A state wide rural nursing service
coupled with a free correspondence
school to answer letters and send out
literature is to be established by the
w. G. Raoul Foundation in connec-
ton with the organized campaign
against tuberculosis in Georgia.
James P. Faulkner, executive head
of the Foundation who has just re-
turned to Atlanta from an organiza-
ton trip in South Georgia, in which
he visited several cities, declares that
the disease in Georgia must be con-
quered, if at all, in the home.
The Raoul Foundation is working
in cooperation with the other asso-
Citations already in existence in Geor-
gia, and with them is establishing
chain of interlocked committees to
take charge of the work in all the
cities of the state.
I'VE realize that the sanitarium is
the best place for the treatment and
cure of the disease, but it has begun
to be generally recognized that no
appreciable per cent of patients can
ever be brought to the sanitarium at
all.
1T is generally recognized that SO
per cent of those afflicted with tuber-
culOsis can never hope to reach a
sanitarium and, realizing that this is
true, while the Foundation is anx-
ious to see as many state and county
sanitOria erected as possible, we pro-
pose to seek to combat the disease
where it will have to be conquered,
if conquered at all, in the home. The
fight we propose to wage, therefore,
is primarily one for prevention, rec
ognizing that prevention is better
and cheaper than cure.
Much of the work, therefore, of
the Foundation will be educational,
through the distribution of literature,
through lectures, and through the
cooperation of the press. But even
this will not suffice, so the Founda-
ton proposes to institute the commu-
nifty and rural nursing service, the
nurses to be under committee rep
resenting the Foundation. In this
way it is hoped to soon put Georgia
in the forefront of the fight, the nurs-
ing service embracing the full pro-
gram of prevention, treatment and
cure.
ITO carry out this program the
Foundation will need much larger
resources than it now has, and the
various localities where the service
is established will be expected to CO.
operate in financing this movement
The correspondence system will be
along the lines recently inaugurated
with success in North Carolina, al
though it will be impossible now in
this state to carry the work to the
same extent for the lack of office
help. Literature touching on pre-
vention and treatment, and proper
sanitation will be sent free, however
to everyone who requests it of the
Raoul Foundation, and wherever pos
sible questions which are not covered
by the printed literature will be an
swered by special letters. The Foun-
dation invites any one interested to
| write.

"YOUR BEST FRIEND" MUST
GO BACK TO THE FARM
Measure Will Be introduced to Run
Dogs Out OF Cities.

ATLANTA.-"M Mans best friend, "
the dog, is going to come in for some
hard knocks before the approaching
session of the legislature. Several
Georgia cities in recent years have
had a good deal of trouble from time
to time with mad dogs, and recently
a number of editors, including the
head of one of Atlantas dailies, have
expressed the view that since condi-
tions have changed in the past so
years the dog has no place in the city
at all, and should not be allowed in
side the city limits on any preteXt.
1t is admitted that a dog is useful
on the farm or on a sheep range, and
in the hunting field, but that the
pleasure of having one for pet
around the house does not compen-
safe for the lives and suffering an
occasional mad dog costs.
A measure may consequently be
introduced this year to relegate all
dogs to the country.

CONVENTION
MEETS IN OKLAHOMA
To Determine the Future Policy and
Government of the Tribe.

To Determine the Future Policy and
Government of the Tribe.
DURANT, Okla.-The future pol
lev of the Choctaw Indians with re-
gard to their government, finances,
etc, is to be determined at a great
mass convention of the members OF
the tribe which assembled here to-
day. Notwithstanding that congress
has abolished their tribal election the
Indians feel that in the present grave
crisis in their affairs they should be
represented by a principal chief OF
their own selection. 1t is therefore
proposed that the convention select
a principal chief and recommend his
appointment by the president OF the
United States. The convention also
is to consider the advisability of fill
ing suit to compel the secretary of
the interior to pay the Choctaw peo-
pie all the money claimed by them.
The disposition of the valuable coal
and asphalt deposits on the ChoctaW
land is another matter that is to re-
ceive attention of the convention.

dent Wilson is nightly mistaken If
he imagines his sort of neutrality
will be acknowledged and valued by
the belligerents as fair play. 1t IS
impossible for Germany and her al
lies to esteem as a sign of 'self-con-
troll one-sided patronage by the con-
tinued federation of most extensive
supply of arms, combined with hum
BILE endurance of all English repres-
sion of neutral commerce. So far as
Germany is concerned President Will
son need not trouble about prepara-
lions for help after the war
Paragraph Referred to.
The ideas expressed by President
Wilson and referred to by these Ger
man newspapers doubtless are found
in the following paragraph:
Let us think of America before
we think of Europe, in order that
America may he fit to be Europe's
friend when the day of tested friend
ship comes. The test of friendship
is not now sympathy with the one
side or the other, but getting ready
to help both sides when the struggle
is over"

IMPORTANT DECISION
BY SUPREME COURT
Interest Cannot Be Deducted From a
Loan i'm Advance. To Do So Is
Held to Be Usury.

A decision of statewide interest
and Importance was handed down by
the supreme court of Georgia Tues
day in the case of the Loganville
Banking Company against S. N. For
roster.
S. N. Forester and R. A. Forester
e Company, of WalnutgrOve, a few
years ago gave the Loganville Bank
ing Company promissory notes for
loans totaling $1,000, from which in
terest at 8 per cent had been deduct
ed, the notes being secured by deed
to 275 acrs of land. In March, 1911,
the Messrs. Forester and R. A. For
roster & Co. filed voluntary petition
in bankruptcy, a homestead was set
aside, and the claim was made that
the deed given the banking company
was void, in that usury was practiced
in the collection of per cent inter-
est in advance.
In other words, the Messrs. Forces
ter claimed that they had not receive
ed $1,000 from the bank, the amount
called for, but that 6 ,440 was the act
uaI amount obtained $500 being de-
Quoted from the $1,000 for advance
interest. This, the MessrS. Forester
contended was usury, and this is the
point just decided by the supreme
court. 1t was commended that the
legal rate of interest would have been
$515, $40 less than the sum collected,
and that inasmuch as the rate charg-
ed was usurious the deed to the land
was void.

STEADY GROWTH OF
THE PARCEL POST
Seven Hundred Million Packages
Have Been Carried This Year.
Opposition to Extension.

WASHINGTON.-The forthcoming
report of Postmaster-General Burle-
son will show that the number of par
cells handled in the parcel post ser
vice for this year reached the enor-
nous total of 7OO,OOO,OOO. Of this
number there were 30O,OOO,000 par
cells weighing more than one pound.
A significant fact in connection
with the development of the parcel
pest service since the European war
commenced is that while other feat
ures of the postal business have de-
creased it has increased, and is still
in crcasing.
1t is feared by some of the experts
in the department that an effort is
being made on congress to prevent
the expansion of the parcel post ser
vice, so as to provide for 5O-pound
package for the first and second
zones. Fifty pounds can be sent in
only two zones-the first and sec
ond-now.

FOREIGN PRESS COMMENT IS VERY
HOSTILE ON PRESIDENTS ADDRESS
A KNOCK FROM CANADA.

OTTAWA, Ont.-Arthur Meg
hen, solicitor general for Canada
in an address to the Laurentlan
Club today, criticised the policy
of President Wilson in the war
He declared the United States APP
neared to care more for party pol
itics and dollars and cents than
for the principles of justice and
freedom and the cause OF hu-
mainly. u,,,
Referring to President VII
SONS New York speech he said
all the world knew Great Britain
was fighting to save humanity,
fighting to save the United States
as well as the rest OF the Worlo
from a tyranrg when would nave
overwhelmed all. Instead OF CIV
ing moral assistance, he declar-
ed, the United States was contln-
ually nagging Great Britain and
showed a distinct inclination TO
hamper her in her efforts for CIV

President Wilson's views may have
value, but in the light of the sanguin-

this is the reception that will be CIV

America will lend her support to
both belligerents after supporting
Great Britain and her allies during
