FOUL TIPS
By the Observer.

1t seems as if some of our courts
have very little work on hand
though it is certainly not for the
lack of crimes. Recently case came
before a Massachusetts court involv-
ing the question of who is the head
of the Christian Science church
would you say it is 'church;" per-
haps it is better to say organization
and the contention was made by the
Scientists that Mrs. Eddy, dead for
several years, is still the head of the
cult. Acts through the spirit medi-
um, wee-jee board, ct cetera. And
the court actually entertained seri-
Gus motion in the case. 1t ought to
surprise decent folks that a court
of justice which is supposed to have
some semblance of dignity would lis
ten to this silly spiritualism stuff.
If there are those who insist on hear
ing from the dead, let them hear;
but don't let the courts of justice
have anything to do with it. Mrs.
Eddy is dead, and her earthly reign,
if she ever had any, is gone forever,
the courts and the Christian Scien-
lists to the contrary Notwithstanding.
fho,, Illinois 6ov
so the newspapers say, court rem
dered a decision that woman who
slandered another by repeating what
her ouija board told on her neighbor
could not be punished, because she
was not responsible for the wicked
ness of the ouija board, and that the
board was not amenable to punish
ment. That is the way the story goes.
You can't believe all you see in the
papers, though. My friends, The Her
aid publishers, may not agree to this,
but it is true. Personally, I don't
believe a court in America ever did
any such thing. If it is true, then
my advice is for that judge to keep a
good distance away from the fool
killer.
We read that last Saturday was
national book day." Never heard
of it, eh? Oh, well, don't feel badly
about it. Neither did I. Neverthe-
less, if had known about it believe
would have called attention to it for
this reason: The idea of the book
day is that every person who has
a borrowed book in his or her pos
session should return it on that day
If not before, of course Now, it is
astonishing how many people bor-
row books and never return them. l
am real glad have no books loaned
out just now, so nobody can accuse
me- of being personal about it. I
have, had in times past, though. And
I have one or two modest sets in
which books are lacking. Borrowed.
Never returned. The regular set
apart day has passed, but it is not
too late to return those books yet.
Not mine. That was years ago. The
other fellows.

They tell me that there was deep
sense of relief among the base ball
promoters when it was ascertained
that lodging would not have to be
provided for the big league fellows
that came here recently. I was told
that the Boston crowd wanted hotel
accommodations in bunch, not more
than two to the room, with separate
beds, and with private baths for the
rooms. We boast of our town, and
rightfully so, but that got our goats,
to use a favorite and pointed express
sion. We cant very we'll afford to
invite strangers to Bamberg at the
present time-not many of them.
But they do say that the fellows
were treated royalty by our good
friend, Mrs. Owens, at the hotel, who
presided uring the absence of Mr.. and
Mrs. Brooker, the, veteran hotel keep
ers of Bamberg. She showed that
she. knows how, and that "Uncle
Charlie can sleep contentedly when
he goes away and leaves his house
in her charge But we are all glad he
is back, because something is miss
ing on the street when his good cheer
is somewhere else.
And, now that Col. Folk has his
titles clear, what's wrong with going
ahead on that hundred thousand dol
lar hotel? Bamberg is growing

the fashion-path Of their own choosing even after they
were warned from the pulpit, and we're none the less

And this age? Well, fashions and styles meteor

Dante would suggest to the modern pulpit after sur
