formed man, providing that he
should eat of the forbidden fruit.
1t will be necessary for US to
get some understanding OF this
tree Of knowledge of good and
evil. Inorder to understand what
the For hidden Fruit was,
We have comprehended by the
scriptures that men and people
has been called trees: as it is
written in this language;
The trees went forth on a.
time to annoint king over
them; and they said unto the
olive tree Reign thou over US.
Judges 9-8
This scripture is positive proof
that people were called trees,
This then is a token of the truth
that leads US to believe, that tie
tree of the knowledge of good
and evil, was a man. AS people
at different times and God thru
different writer's called them
trees. For you will see that
Paul also called the IsraeIites
the good olive tree and the Gen.
tiles the wild Olive tree: in this
language.
For il thou vert cut out of
the olive tree which is wild by
by nature and grated contrary
to nature into a good olive tree
how much more shall these
which be the natural branches
be grated into their own olive
tree. Rom. l1-24
Now all that we will have to
do is to prove that there was
more people in the garden who
we're called trees, besides the
man Adam ana Eve. Inor der t
what the tree Of the
knowledge of good and evil was
This we shall do by asking you
to read this scripture.

Greek and Serbian Parlia-
ments Meet to Discuss
Future Course
vENEZELOs RETURNS
Outcome of Present War Hanging
In Balance-Allies Making Strong
Representations to States

London. Aug. 16-Momentous de-
cisions which may affect the outcome
of the world war and the fate OF the
Balkan states are hanging in the bal
ance as the Greek and Serbian parlla'
ments meet today.
Venezelos returns to the premier
ship in Athens today with the prestige
of a tremendous popular vote lndors-
ing his advocacy of Intervention IN the
war.
Premier Pachitcil today will rem
der the Serbian national assembly at
Nish an account Of the negotiations
with Bulgaria relative to the surren-
dr. of Macedonia and other territorial
concession for participation in the con
hict.
Enyovs of the entente powers are
counting upon three elements to bring
the Balkan states into quick accord,
possibly within the next twenty-foul
hours These are:
!. The certainty that the present
lack of Turkish ammunition makes
this most favorable time for inter-
vention.
9. The fact that the allies have
landed re-enforcements and have re-
gistcred fresh successes at the Dard
anclles which might cause the Balkans
to lose theil. opportunity to share the
spoil; sl.oald .l1e allied forces
reach Constantinople without them.
and
3. The concentration of Austro-
Germans against Serbia.
Both Bucharest and Sofa dispatch
es indicates that this last factor may
hasten the Balkan states into united
acion.

FARMER Murdered
Was Beaten to Death by Robbers
Saturday Night
Robbers

Snow Hill, Md, Aug. 156-Samuel
Chatham, 70 years old, a prosper
Gus farmer who has lived the life OF
recluse for several years, was found
murdered at his home on the coun-
ty road leading from Snow Hill to
Princess Anne early yesterday MORN
ing. When found by neighhors the
body was lying in the kitchen door,
the head and shoulders having fallen
across the sill in the house. About II
feet away in the yard was found his
straw hat and it is supposed at this
point is where he was first assaulted.
Chatham has lived the life of a her
nit for a number of years and he
was reputed to have amaSsed consid-
erable money. Three years ago his
home was entered and robbed $4,000
in gold. The robber was never capt
ured. although clues led to one Of the
large Eastern cities and for time
it was supposed an arrest would be
made. Other fatalities have befall
en- the Chatham hermitage. A sister.
who was as much of recluse as the
the murdered man. died from some
strange cause. Her brother. upon re-
turning home from d neighborhood
store found her unconscious, and as
she never recovered. mystery sur
rounds her death. Circumstances
pointed at that time to robbery.
Chatham once before was attacked.
but he supposed it was a prank of
some neighbor. The murdered man
was last seen alive at II o'clock Sat
urday morning and when found had
been dead several hours. Surround.
ng the farmhouse where the murder
was committed is dense copse and
it is supposed this underground was
the hiding place Of the murderer OF
Chatham. he being attacked from be-
hind with heavy cufgel. His left
and right temples were crushed and
right arm was broken. The ground
leading to the kitchen door shows evi.
dence Of a struggle.
In the house there was much con-
fusion. Every place which might
have hidden money or valuable pap
e1's was opened. An old chest in which
taIatham was reported to have stored
his money and from which the gold
gold was stolen three years ago was
broken open. No one seems TO know
if there was any money in the house
on Saturday nor does there seem 10
be any clue as to the murderer.
