two young men as the Editor was
passing the Union Depot last Tuesday
night.vs When the Editor turned to
see from whom had come such cor
dial greetings, two young men whom
the Editor had the pleasurerof teach
ing in Ringgold, La, in 1901, APP
preached and extended their hands.
After talking over the past, and ask
ing questions concerning the several
families that were living in Ringgold
when the Editor worked there, we
finally asked, why are you boys
not in Straight College, where you
attended school last year,"
To this question the elder of the
two young men, leaning himself
against a post on Louisiana St., re-
piled as follows: well" said he,
things have changed in our COM
munity, and the change is against us,
the Negro race. Since the world war
has ended in favor of the Allies, the

sharply continued the elder young
man, 'sbut we knew that if we con-
tinued. to drive our car trouble would
arise, and, should we get the best of
the fight, all of the 'law-abiding'
white men of the community would
come together for the purpose of

HOW CHICAGO is BEHAVING
NOW.

"Sir, if it were not for the notion
of Immortality" said DR.. johnson to
Boswell, che would cut throat to fill
his pockets" When Boswell quoted
this to Beauclerk the latter replied
.'He would cut throat to FIJI his
pockets if it were no. for fear of be-
in hanged"
Poor human nature! 1t needs the
constant threat of punishment -
keep it from crime. Despite the adj
vance of civilization, despite centu-
ries of humanitarian teaching, there
interposes between society and anar-
chy only the fear of punishment, the
dread of the hangman A few weeks
ago this was evident by the wave of
lawlessness that followed the police
strike in Boston. Now there is still
more startling demonstration in the
outburst of crime in Chicago.
The city inaugurated last Saturday
the practice of doing without street
lights to conserve the supply of coal.
This action all the murderers, gun
men, footpads and burglars took as
an invitation to commit crime with
inpunity. There has resulted an APP
palling series of hold-ups, robberies
and murders. Bandits actually at
tackled physician in his automobile
in Sheridan road, one of the city's
most fashionable thoroughfares.

that the fear of hanging alone keeps
many men from cutting Threats mere
