of human beings TO call a spade spade
extends through the whole range of our

times the euphemism is justitiable, but
it is hardest to justify in the field Of oc-

THE JAY sPAKE In MEETING.
Jays frequently Do, But This One the
Parson Shot.

Some days SINCE. the News has oc-
casion to raise its editorial voice agaist
the shooting of bluejay which had
w. A. Wray of Sanderville, Ga. The
editorial evidently drew blood, for we
are in receipt of letter from Mr.. Wray,
countersigned by the chairman of his
board of deacons and his church clerk,
which we eheerfully reproduce, as re-
quested,
The letter is headed, "The truth about
why and the way in which the jay bird
was killed at the Baptist church on the
9Th day of June and reads:
Before and after the Sabbath school
every conceivable effort was made to
put the bird out of the building, but
the ceiling being so high this was i'm
possible. As the squswking of the bird
interrupted the work of the Sabbath
school, it was thought best to remove it
before the preaching hour During the
intermisson a small gun was sent for
which shoots cartridge about the size
of ones little finger, loaded with mustard
shot. This gun was placed in an ante
room that it might be used as a last re-
sort, The bord continued to squawk
as the pastor endeavored to read the
scripture. 1t was then fully realized that
the service must either be dismissed or
the bird shot. The pastor then stated
of the bird continued to shrek, he would
have to shoot him, though he hated ia
do so. The minister did not 90 to his
home after the gun, but opened the door
of the anteroom, secured the gun and
shot the bird, which was in the dome
of the church The bird was then re.
moved by deacon. There was no smoke
from the gun, and very little noise, com.
pared to shotgun.
THE pastor afterward made his regtl.
lar announcements, preached and took a
large collection for Mercer university
On the following Sunday, June 10, the
church in conference, by a unanimous
rising vote, signified that the action OF
the pastor in the entire proceedings was
correct and essential for the good OF the
cause
We print this letter in order that it
may become footnote to the history OF
Georgia. We are glad that Mr.. Wray
hated to shoot the bird. We sympathize
with the efforts Of the deacons to cap
ture lively customer like bluejay in a
building with high ceiling, without hav-
ing any salt at hand. Moreover, we con-
graduate Mr.. Wray on his marksman-
ship, in which so many members of the
clergy are deficient.
Summing up, we are glad that state
of civilization has been reached when
the killing of bluejay by a minister Of
the gospel becomes news item, awak
ening such indignation, far and wide
that his church is impelled to go to the
expense of printed apology Rocky

REVENUE DISTRICTS SEPARATE
Vermont to Be by Itself, with Offices in
Burlington.

Burlington, Aug. AFTER this month";
Vermont will be an internal revenue dis
trict by itself, instead of being included
in the New Hampshire district. Head
quarters will then be established in this
city, in the federal building, with a
score of collectors and Office assistants,
under James +. Kennedy Of Essex juno
ton, who was nominated for the position
last week by President Wilson.
The establishment of the Vermont dis
trict office will mean that thousands
upon thousands of dollars of revenue
money that is annually paid by Yer
monters which heretofore has been sent
to the New Hampshire districts head
Office at Portsmouth, N. H., in charge of
Seth w. Jones, will now be paid to the
Vermont district office in Burlington and
thence to the department in Washing
ton. 1t will be a boon for Burlington
and for Vermont as well, and in all prob
ability will mean that half dozen Yer
mont men now working at Portsmouth
will be transferred to their home state
for duty with the new district.
Divorcing Of the state Of Vermont
from the New Hampshire district, to
have her established as an independent
district, was not accomplished without
much protest from the powers that be
in the New Hampshire district, and in
the political circles of both New Hamp-
shire and Maine. Several influential Yer
mont government officials paid hasty
visit to Washington several weeks ago
and after a conference with Commission
er Roper came home with the assurance
that the divorce would be granted and
that the Vermont district would be
speedily organized
