The writer is not of the Baptist creed.
yet creeds ia our opinion make no ma
terial difference 10 leading Christian
life, but we do not hesitate in saying
that the local Baptists will make q
grave mistake if they allow their pres
ent pastor. Rev. DR.. ]. F. HALEY, to
leave this charge. DIR. HALEY is not
what we call ''gum shoe" pastor, or
preacher, but one who does not hesitate
to condemn evil wherever it may be
found and to speak plainly on mat
ters in which he feels justified from the
Christians point of view and for the
welfare of the Cause. In our humble
opinion DR.. Haley is man who in bis
abe, service for the Master has the
backing of that power which is so
much desired and needed by every dis
ciple of Prince Emanuel. Not only the
Baptists but the people of Moscow need
DR.. HALEY among US and we sincerely
hope his pastorata of the local church
will be continued.

be realized soon. If the right kind of n

Dog Owners Subject To In
dictment

Notices: in daily papers Indicate that
in other counties grand juries. are find
idg indictments against those dog own
Srs wlo have not paid taxes on the
dogs. Dyer county authorities have
given notice ;thBt such owners as have
not paid taxes on their dogs may 10 K
for such indictments.
Authorities in Favette county have
been pretty active in ell districts ex-
cept one or two and the dog taxes have
been we'll collected for first-year of new
law. And yet there remain in every
di trict dog owners who have not paid
taxes on their dogs. This makes dis
satisfaction with those who have paid
and leaves room for the complaint al
ready heard from some, that they were
made to pay while other dog owners
escaped payment. The year is almost
out, the law applies to all counties in
the state and steps are being taken by
grand juties in many counties to indict
dog owners who have not paid the axes
on their dogs. The courtm meets in Fay
cite county on the fourth Monday in
November and it behooves those who
have not paid these taxes to do so at
once.
This applies with equal force to the
buggy and wagon tax. Many have not
yet paid and the year is nearly gone.
and with the new year comes the tax
es on dogs, wagons and buggies for
1929.

WANDER FROM STRICT TEXT
Matter of Marvel That Phrases From
the Bible Are So Frequently
Misquoted.

No book has contributed more to the
general stock of Interpretations than
the Bible. No book exists in such a
multitude of forms, which may account
for some of the popular departures
from the wording of the King James
version. But it Is not easy to supply
reasons for most peoples habit of say
ing: "In the sweat of thy brow" when
the text reads sin the sweat of thy
face shalt thou eat bread" Why "the
parting Of the ways" instead of the
parting of the way" Bone Of my
BONE" instead of "bone Of my bones
and flesh Of my flesh" may be due to
the desire for perfect parallelism. And
the same explanation may hold for
"Thus far shalt thou come, but no fur
ther," instead of Hitherto shalt thou
come" But why the general prefer
ence for "better part" when we are
expressly told that "Mary hath chosen
that good part?" The Vulgate, for
whatever reason, says "the best part
-optimam partem-often cited In the
middle ages in proof of the superiority
of the contemplative life, as represent
ed by Mary, over the active life, SYM
bolized by Martha. But apparently no
such contrast was originally intended
Why, again, "a multitude Of SINS"
when it is said Of charity that it
shall cover the multitude of sins?" Per-
haps there is no other reason save that
the tongue is an unruly member; such
at least the world agrees in calling 1t,

as IAN .unruly evil."-Marry Ayres, in

DREAM BROUGHT HIM WEALTH
PeddIer Had Laugh on SkepticaI Shop
keeper Who Refused to Credit
Truth Of Vision.

In the time of Henry VII the story
runs, so Edgar g. Goodspeed writes in
the Atlantic Monthly, there lived in
Swaffham Market, in Norfolk, a ped
dler named John Chapman. Having
dreamed one night that, If he went up
TO London, on London bridge he would
meet man who would bring him good
news, and being unable to get this
dream out Of his mind, he presently
betook himself to London, and all day
long walked to and fro on London
bridge. At length a shopkeeper, not
iAg his strange behavior, asked him
tho meaning Of 1t, and the honest ped
der told him his dream. o.
"Ah!" said the shopkeeper, "had I
taken account Of dreams I might have
seemed as much fool as you; for
only the other night I dreamed that in
a Place called Swaffham Market, in
Norfolk, there lives a peddler named
John Chapman who has a tree In his
back yard, under which is buried a
pot Of gold"
The peddler humbly acknowledged
the folly Of such behavior and forth
with returned home. There he lost
no time in digging under the tree in
his back yard, and in very truth found
just such a pot Of gold as the shop
keeper had dreamed Of, whereby he
lived In plenty the rest Of his days.
