THE BIBLE AND
CONSTITUTION
BY DIR. JAMES 1. VANCE

THIS is not a bad slogan for these
\ days. Back to the Bible and the
Constitution.
The Bible must come first. 1t is
older than the Constitution. 1t has
seen more service. 1t has been tested
out in fiercer trials. 1t speaks with
an authority nothing else possesses.
The men who would send the Bible
to the Stag dump are not likely to
lead US to anything better. Men who
cannot trust God are not safe lead
ers for their fellowmen to trust.
The race has not worked out bet
ter system of morals than the Ten
Commandments and the Sermon on
the Mount. Any social order that de-
spises these sublime moralities gives
no promise of better day.
America needs to get back to the
Bible. That is where we started. The
men who founded this nation were
not atheists. They had been trained
in school where the Bible was the
text book.
1t was men thus trained who gave
US the Constitution. 1t is document
of freedom Guilt upon rights re-
vealed in the sacred Scriptures. The
trainers of the Constitution did not
find the divine right of kings in the
Bible. They did not therefore write
so arrogant lie into the Constitu-
tom
They did find the divine rights of
the common man in the Bible and
these are the rights guaranteed in
the Constitution. This is the differ
ence between the worn-out govern
ments of the old world and the re-
public. At once the peasant rose to
the level with the peer and common
life was lowered with all the priv
leges and perquisites of freedom.
1t is a freedom with restraints; the
freedom to do right, to think without
fear, to act without CONSUMPTION, to
worship without persecution; but to
do all this with due regard to the
rights of others.
Anybody who wants more freedom
than this wants a freedom that is
not sane. Anybody who would be bet.
ter than the Bible has goodness that
must be suspected.
1t is easy to make promises. Any
beggar can do that. But here are two
who have performed-the Bible anc
the Constitution. They have led US
safe thus far. They can be trusted fol-
tomorrow.

Silks Pegged.
Apparently silks have reached rock
bottom and have started upward
slightly. The extravagant silk shirt
craze is dead, however. The Jap

silk from falling below $3.50 a
pound. This is higher than recent
levels, but much lower than the
peak price of around $18.
Cost of Living.
Figures of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, just issued, disclose that
the greatest increase in the cost CT
living has been in the prices of furni-
ture and house furnishings. The fig
ures, based on prices in 81 cities in
June, show the following percentage
increses over 1913: food, 119,
clothing, 1877; housing, "a; flel and
light, II; furniture and furnishings,
1872; miscellaneous, 101; total, he.
Wholesale prices declined more than

Foods.
Abundant crops and lower price
trends explain the fall of IL per cent
in foods in August, compared with
July prices. The normal seasonal
decrease during the month is IL

is weak with jobbers and grocers

concessions have brought buyers and

Cotton Crop Credits
In 1914, ten cents a pound looked
good to cotton growers. The high
cost of production makes forty cents
necessary for profit now, they say. A
$500. 100000 from the federal re-
serve system in order to hoard this
years crop until high prices came,
has failed. The reserve board re-
fuses to lend it's resources either ar
tifcially to initiate or depress prices.

ing the normal crop movement.

lively easy to introduce this modern
method of improving cattle. Many Of
the dairymen in the community have
shown themselves TO be progressive
but one man especially stands out as
leader in this respect. We will call
him Green. He is a, good old South,
erner who is said to have farmed for
some sixty years.
When the agricultural extension
agents from the federal and state de-.
-partments came into the community to
organize a bull association Green was
the man thew called on first. Their
knew from experience that he would
be very likely TO see the advantage OF
such an association to The community
and would be 4 strong factor in swing
ing into line other farmers In the
neighborho0d. As was expected, Green
at once saw the advantages that the
proposition offered, and the very next
day he started in on the preliminary
work of organizing a bull association
'block
A few days later the extension men
heard over the telephone that block
was practically assured. Later, how
ever, Green telephoned that some of
the prospective members were dropping
out, as they remembered a disastrous
experience Of some years before. when
they had paid a high price for worth
Tess stallion. This objection was met
however, with the assurance that the
federal and state agents were indors-
ing this project and would see that ne
one was swindled.
Later on Green informed the coun-
" agent that block of 40 cows had
been formed and could be signed up il
the agent and specialist would come
out to the schoolhouse and clear up
certain doubtful points. This was
done, and six farmers signed up 43
cows, so that $430 was then available
for buying a bull.
Things were moving along in such
promising manner that the farmers
who. had refused to join decided that

elected director of the block. "You had

With the arrival of the excellent

which had been secured for the use OF
block members, the farmers who had
at first refused to join the association
were doubly anxious to get in, but
were again told that they would have
to organize a block of their own. Thus

BLAME MEXICAN "H0T STUFF"
Pepper and Fiery Liquors May Have
Something to Do With the
Troubles Down There.

Pepper Is the source Of Mexican
revolutions, according to many people.
Hot tamales, chilli con carne, which
means pepper with meat; chill rel
lenas, chilli con queso, or pepper with
cheese; all the other hot dishes that
delight the Mexican palate, are sup
posed to incite these fiery Latin-Indian
folk to actions that people OF more
sober mien would not contemplate.
But the border citizens Of this coun-
try place the greater blame on the
liquid refreshments INDUCED in by
our neighbors to the south. Aguar-
diente, tequila, mescal, drinks that
rouse stormy passions in the Latin
and paralyze the senses Of the Anglo
Saxon, are consumed in great Quanti-
ties.
Tequila, father of comets, sea SER
penis, misshapen giants, juggernauts
and thousand other monsters, Is a
white liquid brewed from "bear
grass" desert growing plant with
clusters of thick, hard and watery
daggerlike leaves with needle points.
Mescal, brew of cactus leaves, is its
companion drink, and, mixed, the very
smell will put even prohibition en-

Poor Packing Causes Waste.

Few persons considering the cost OF
living realize that more than $500, 0OO,-
600 is added to the cost of their food,
clothing and other necessities each
year because of the waste caused by
damage, unscientific loading and the
tremendous cost of packing these
commodities. The railroads and the
shippers realize it, as shown by their
conducting campaign to reduce to
the minimum the waste through dam
age, and to utilize to the utmost the
capacity of freight cars. which are
hauled half empty.
These are some of the items which
enter into this waste estimate-dam-
age and theft, $1O0,OOO,OOO; wasted
lumber used only. once in packing
cases, s240,OO0O0O; empty car space,
$209O00,0OO; and the staggering cost
to the railroads Of hauling half empty
cars more than 6,0O0,0O0,000 miles,
1851, 100000. 1t is estimated that from
10 to 25 per cent of the cost of food
stuffs goes to pay for the craes
which are, thrown away.
