JEWS TO SAVE THE WORLD.

1.-THE world will never be evangelical
until the Jewish nation has been re-
|engrafted into the olive tree of the
Christian church." was one Of the
strong utterances of Rev. ]. Layton
Mauze, D. D., of st. Louis, before the
Montreal IN. c. conference. Empha-
sizing this statement further, Dr. Mauze
said it behooves Christians, in the face
of this fact, to use every effort to save
the Jewish people. In both the Old
Testament and in the New Testament,
he said. it is plainly shown that the
great work of world evangeliZation is
to be accomplished by the Jews, that
they are to be the great missionary
force of the world.
DR.. Mauze spoke upon the theme
Supernatural Promises" and showed
that while man may believe in God and
may believe many things about God, in
order for man to be saved, he must be-
lieve in the supernatural power and
work of God. He Illustrated this truth
with the case of Abraham who believed
the promise of God regarding the birth
of Isaac and learned the lesson that
even when nature fails, God helps, CIV

extremity becomes Gods opportunity"

STRICT BUT JUST.
f0akdale News.)

In Franklin parish the president Of
the school board and the parish super
intendent OF education have drawn up
rules and regulations which must be
complied with by teachers or else con-
tracts will not be given.
The rules provide that no teachers
shall attend dances. go to card parties
or entertainments on school nights for
the reason that teachers who do so are
nervous, snappish, cross from loss of
sleep and therefore not competent to
handle children; that teachers who
leave their school early Friday after
noon and only return Monday morning
should ask the superintendent to ac-
cept their resignation, as this is an
evidence to the patrons that the right
kind of interest is not manifested and
the money is unwisely spent. 1t is
also provided that no teacher shall go
home or to his or her boarding place
for dinner, or leave the school room
during school hours except in case of
sickness; that pupils shall not be crit
icized or punished for the same things
they have seen their teachers do.

WHY IT Is.
(Thomasville, Ca, Davidsonian.)

(Thomasyille, Ca, Davidsonian.)
Local merchants wonder why it is
that the mail-order business is con.
stantly increasing, when to the mind
of a man who knows the first princi-
pies of advertising it is perfectly plain
II local merchants, especially furniture
dealers, would profit by the experience
of the mail-order houses, who have
built up their business solely from the
proper kind Of advertising, they would
have hauled away from their stores the
car loads of furniture that come to the
freight Offices every month from mail
order houses.
The housewife is the one who gen.
orally selects the furniture for the
home, and If she can pick up a mail
order catalogue and in few minutes
select what she wants, it Is a settled
fact that she is not going to walk to
the furniture store, or il she lives in
the country, hitch up and drive in, to
look over the local mans stock to see
if he has what she wants. Instead, she
is going to write out an order for the
article she wants and have it delivered
to the freight depot and all the trouble
there is to it will be to have a team
stop and get it some time when in town.
If the local man would advertise
properly the new articles that he re-
ceives and constantly keep the public
informed as to what he carries in
stock, all the trouble it would be to
the housewife when she wanted an
article would be to call the merchant
over the telephone and tell him to load
the article on the wagon when it came
to town. The way the majority of
local merchants carry on their business
the public will never know what they
have in stock.

CHECKING THE cuTWoRM.

One of the most successful ways Of
checking cutworms is achieved by the
nse of poisoned bait or bran-mash. The
bait is easily prepared by dipping fresh
|ly.cut clover or some succulent vegeta-
tion in solution of poison and scatter
ling handfuls in places frequented by
the worms SO they will go to the lure.
To make the other preparation, mix a
small amount of white arsenic or Paris
green in each pound Of bran as will be
needed for size of patch, sweeten by
adding syrup or cheap molasses, and
saturate it all with water The juice
|Of lemon or orange also mixed in 1t
lis claimed to make it more savory to
insects which operate just above the
surface Of the ground Scatter this
mixture where the worms occur, plac-
ing it out on the ground in the evening
SO it will be in readiness for the night
land not dry too quickly. The caterpil-
lars will then eat 1t in preference to
attacking the plants, and consequently
get a dose to cause their death. Care
should be taken to keep poultry and
other farm animals, as we'll as chill
dren, from having access to it.
Protecting plants with old tin cans
having tops and bottoms removed, or
by other devices, is frequently employ
ed by gardeners. Tarred cardboard
disks, each being provided with a slit
cut to the center so that the card can
be slipped around the stem of the plant
at the surface of the ground, are quite
inexpensive and furnish a lasting
guard against attacks. e. S. Tucker,

Facts" published at New Orleans
in the interest of the liquor traffic,
says that prohibition in the dry par
ishes of Louisiana is responsible for
the states fiscal deficit. 1t comments:
"If the state had received the reve-
nue. from liquor licenses in the sup
posed dry parishes, to which 1t is
justly entitled, the public treasury
would not be confronted by a deficit
of about 100000"
The recent examinations made by
Supervising Auditor Mcfarland in
Baton Rouge, Alexandria and Monroe
show that if the liquor licenses due by
the saloons Of Louisiana in the wet
parishes were paid, the state would
not only not have deficit but a surplus.

PAYING FOR THE WAR.

The cost of war is not all paid In
money and human life. In England an
uncensored press, the right of trial by
jury, and freedom from search, as we'll
as other time-established rights, have
been suspended by the Defense of the
Realm act SO desperate is the mill
tary condition that all means are re-
sorted to by the government to pre-
serve the national existence. Thus do
the toil-won achievements of centuries
slip away in the confusion of war
There remains the hope that the loss
will be so keenly felt that the conclu-
sion of hostilities will see not alone
the restoration of these rights but the
requirement of others for which the
people have long struggled.

NSAlSd6O uD1iN.J
A negro burned alive in Texas, and
another saved from lynching on the
same day in Illinois by the resourceful-
hess of the sheriff, who lodged him in
three different jails in as many towns,
marks a serious lapse in our progress
toward law and order. Lynchings in
the United States show fuctuating
IAnd gratifying feature OF this de-
crease IN mob-murders is the absence
OF torture. For number of years the
United States enjoyed the unique dis
tlnction OF being the only civilized
country in which men were burned
taliVe. But this latest exploit of the
Texas mob shows that the poison OF
unrullness is still in our blood; and
those who would give reality to Ameri
can ideals must renew their endeayor
toward eliminating the spirit of vio-
lence. Mankind still has within it a
large element of the savage that rises
to supremacy when sufficiently pro-
voked. And the same spirit of savag-
cry manifested in the European war
crops out in this country in time of
peace. Our complacent disregard for
the orderly processes of law prevails
to an alarming extent. Although hui
man relations are supposed to be cover
ed by law in this country, men are
quick to appeal to violence; and they
do not hesitate to take human life
when it stands between them and the
object OF their desire. The worst of
these manifestations, however, are to
be found in mobs bent upon avenging
crime. The Illinois mob that was out
witted by the sheriff would have given
it's victim as short shrift as did the
Texas mob; yet in neither case, &C
cording to dispatches, was the guilt of
the victim certain. The crimes in both
instances were most revolving, and, as
if to arouse the last bit of passion,
both OF the accused men were negroes.
What is to be done about it? Educate,
educate, and continue to educate. Ed.
ucate the negro to higher ideals; and
give him an opportunity to attain
them. Most unfortunate and Cypress
ed Of races, the fruits of oppression
bring upon it still further burdens. No
man commits these crimes except when
insane; and punishment, no matter
how frightful, has no terrors for the
mad. 1t is, indeed, not unlikely that
the thought of these awful conse-
quences, like the lure of the precipice,
upsets the tottering mind and leads to
the commission of the very act they
are intended to prevent The white
man also must be educated toward
higher ideals. Being of the controlling
race, there is less excuse for his resort
to violence The laws of this country
are made by the people, and are
changeable at the will of the people.
1t is poor return for the privilege of
American citizenship that men in set
tied communities resort to methods of
savagery. 1t is not fattering to our
pride to know there are places in the
country where the law can seize an
accused man, but cannot protect him
until he has had fair chance to prove
his innocence. Some of that super
patriotism now clamoring for defenses
against foreign foe might we'll be
devoted to making our citizenship more
defensibIe.
