 Dr. Seerley said, suppose I take a man and lay him by parts on a table. Would you know the parts? Remem- Der there are 500 muscles in the body Young men go wrong because they don't know. They are feeling their way without proper instruments. We know great deal but not much about ourselves. We have geologists, as- tromonists, students of the earth. We know business, we know commerce, it seems that man has studied every thing but himself.

Unbelief. Is unreasonable. Unbe1ief Is dishonorable. It is fatal to the individual. to the home and to the nation The disciples knew the promises of Jesus Christ; they knew of His work; they knew of His wonders, of restoring sight to the blind, loosen ing the tongue, opening the ears and Thomas saw the works of Christ, heard the words of Christ regarding His death. I ask you, friends, was 1t req sona1ble for Thomas to doubt the words of his fellow disciples? Was it per- missible? We must bear in mind, Thomas did not see, he did not under stand. He had seen the Master nailed to the cross. He had seen Him rest ing in the tomb, and now they tell him He had risen. Is 1t permissible that we believe only what we see and understand and reject all other?

EQUALIZATION BOARD PUTS GOOD ONE OVER CAPT. JACK CRAWFORD
Members of Tax Board Admit That Mrs. Cranford's Valuation of
 Property Is Very Liberal

''You know I am booster and so IS my wife" said Capt. Jack Cranford of Jasper, well known banker and politi- elan, but I am convinced that there is such a thing as carrying this boosting too far. That is especially true in regard to expressing your opinion of the value of your property in the presence of the members of the tax equalization board.
 For several years. I have been con sidering selling my present home in Jas per and building a new one on some va cant property I have there. Mrs Gran ford has been urging me to do this, and we have had a number of people look at my home with view of purchasing it. The other day when I was away from home the members of the tax equal ization board went up to my house to make an estimate of it's value. Mrs Cranford, thinking they were prospec- tive purchasers, put the highest possible valuation on the residence, and it's fur nishings. The members of the board un- like other prospective purchases, agreed with her that the property and the fur nishings were most valuable, and even were willing to admit that the place was worth much more than she suggested
 ou can imagine how I felt when Mrs Cranford later told me that she was cer. tain she was going to be able to sel the place, and then we could build tht new home she desired. When she tolC me the valuation she had placed on tn, property and announced that all of he prospective purchasers had agreed that f was well worth the figure named, near l ly had heart failure At any rate, tn, joke was on me, and I will have to keeI 1 busy this year to raise the money to pay the tax on that residence"
