Clay County Still
Was Going on Basis
Wholesale Making

Green Cove Springs, August s.
Sheriff Elan Weeks and his deputies
discovered big still back of West
berry Griffis' field at Maxville yes
terday. This find was one of the
most complete yet located in thsi sec
ton of the country.
Accompanying the sheriff on this
raid was Jess Quigley, o. J. MUIR
hee and Constable Eddy. They found
two 65-gallon stills, SO barrels of
buck" % empty barrels, two dou-
ble-run copper worms, each about SO
feet long, two troughs for worms,
each about 20 feet long; one barrel
of cane syrup, 35 empty jugs, two
axes, two shovels, and half cords
of wood, and ten gallons of shine.
There was a four-foot fence built
around the still with one end reach
ling over a small creek and the other
end on top of a hill in the clear.
One of the stills was in operation
when the sheriff and his party ar
rived and it was evident that good
lookout was posted to warn of ap-
preaching danger. This combined
equipment has a capacity of fifty
gallons of shine per day, and ii
showed much use. Just who or how
many were interested in this still is
a question, but with Sheriff Weeks

MEN ARE LIKE CHILDREN
AND ARE AFRAID OF DARK
Joanna's Box of Mystery Will Proba-
bly, Lose Its Mysterious Force
When II Is Once Opened

Joanna Southcott was born in 1850.
She went about Scotland as a sort of
evangelist. She was venerated as a
prophecies.
When she died in December, 1914,
she took with her in the tomb little
box containing, according to her last
will and testament, prediction.
This prediction. she declared, was
Of such nature as would save, not
only England, but also the whole
world from terrible disaster.
Her will provided that the box
should not be opened until after a
hundred years.
In December, 1914, the box ought
to have been opened. But the war
came along and people had something
else to think Of.
Now, however, her memory is being
revived in a curious manner.
A wave of mysticism is spreading
over the little Scotch fishing village OF
Cairnburg, which is now being called
the Village of the Saints.
From this hamlet number of peo-
Pile are going out through the country
demanding the opening of Joanna's
Box, exhorting the people to penitence
and announcing the coming of the
end of the world. They are making
new converts with rapidty.
1t is greatly to be feared, however,
that all the power of the Box abides
in its mystery. Once we find out
what is in it, it will probably turn
out as common place as any predic-
ton Of Mother Shipman.
For it is the unknown which exer-
cises the greatest power over the hu-
man mind. No great disclosure was
ever as interesting as great secret,
No veiled prophecy of the past was
ever so important as the things that
have taken place unprophesied. Such,
for instance, as the invention of the
steam engine, the telephone, and the
airplane.
These discoveries, however, we
trample under foot as soon as they
becom actual. For things lose their
power of amazement when they be-
come known.
If you tell person that you have
some Ddu news LOT MIN, IL gives MIN
more of a sinking feeling of dismay
than if you would plump out your
information.
1t is the unknown at which we
tremble.
The witches and wizards, the sooth-
sayers and dealers in dark predic-
tons, have a hold on the human mind
that no scientist or inventor can ever
hope to possess.
Most Of our worries and troubles
are entirely due to the hypnotic ter
rors Of the unknown.
One wise old man said on his death
bed, 81 have seen many troubles in
my lifetime, but most of them never
happened"
When we are children we are
afraid of the dark. And when we
grow up we are not much better. For
most of the fear of the world is moth
ing but fear Of the dark.
men fear DEATH" said Francis Ba-
con, "as children fear to go into the
dark; and as that natural fear in
children is in creased with tales so is

we are not much Of a sectarian. We
believe that these thousands Of man
made ereeds if they are honest all of
them tend TO teach people to be bet
ter and if they do they all are good.
Any agency that uplifts mankind is
a good agency. Some there are who
hate this church and that church, this
race and that race, and yet they claim
to be christians. Let them all live
and prosper as long as they do good.
We look at mankind as all made by
God and all should live as He in his
wisdom has placed them. We all do
not agree with Confusius, the law
giver and sage Of the Chinese, yet his
code of religion made his race moral
and wise for thousands of years. What
is the truth? Every man in every
age answers il differently. The truth
is what you or we believe honestly is
the truth-that's it to you or US. 9th
ers may not agree with us and they,
too, are entitled to their view Of the
truth. This fundamental principle
was written by Thomas Jefferson in
our constitution and this freedom Of
religious belief was written in every
man can worship God according to
his conscience. This liberty of con-
science is what peopled our western
shores as those of Europe were driven
here by the autocrats who tried to
force them to believe this and that
or be killed. And yet in 1922 we find
some sectarian papers fighting the
Jews and quarrelling because the
press notes the death of the Pope Of
Rome. We do not believe what the
Pope believes or what the Jews be-
lieve, yet in a free country both have
the right to live and speak. Deny
them this right and then they could
under our laws just as well try to
deny US that right. We must have
charity towards all. This is a Protes-
tant nation yet it must tolerate all
men of all beliefs, so long as they act
under the genius Of our American
If the Jews are starving we should

NADREAMY MOOD
Recalls the Fact That God Has
Made the Whole World and
Nature Broadens Us
HOW VISION is ENLARGED
All People Cannot Agree on All
Things But All Have Right to
Exist in Mutual Respect

Old man G. Ed Kistler Of the Con-
cord Observer got into a musing mood
the other day and before he could stop
he had written some mighty inter-
esting stuff. And here is what he said:
The editor of this paper believes in
the inspiration Of na IRE. Up to IL
to Is years of age &c almost lived
in the wildwood. Every day he was
in close touch with nature. Allison's
pond, Dodson's pond, Brafford's mill,
Misenheimer's mill, Slippery Rock,
Neisler mill-these were great places
to the boy of forty years ago. Civili-
zation has wiped them off the map
long ago but they are remembered
still as the fishing and hunting and
dreaming spots of our childhood. We
learned to love the wildwood, the
streams, the forests, the flowers, the
stars and the fish, birds and animals
that lived near them. The religion
of nature is a pleasant and great
study. Some call it botany, some call
it naturalism, some call it God, yet
call it what you please it is a great
school for the race. In later years
we went to college and there and else
where we studied all the sciences and
all the PHILOSOPHERS and all the sects
and kinds of religions-and they are
as countless as the sands of the sea-
shore-and the more we studied them
the purer and better and clearer
seemed to be the communion with
nature and with Natures God. So

nation or our race. God made man
Of many races, and eolors and creeds
and we are only part Of his ere
alton.
Our nation is only a few hundred
years old, others are thousands of
years, yet in this time we have out
stripped all others, as We think We
have, yet this does not make us the
Elect in a world of millions. On, we
think we are and We know we are, yet
the point is we must have charity to-
wards others who have history and
civilization antedsting ours by thou
sands Of years. Our forefathe-s all
came from the old countries. In our
blood IS the blood Of English, Scotch,
German, Irish, and on other drafts.
What We are We owe il in some degree
TO our fathers. This should teach US
charity to our kindred across the seas.
Therefore this fight against Jews and
those whose religions arc diferen;
from ours is wrong especially when
they are starving and need our aid.
Let us be true Americans and live
and let live under the laws and spirit
of our constitution.
But we have wandered from our
text-she love of nature. Go out in
The country amid the hills and valleys
in the woods and by the streams ani
by the streams and ocean waves and
learn to love your fellows and the
creator Of this beautiful world. Our
vision is enlarged. We forget our
petty prejudices. This will do US
more good than a hospital treatment
We spend our lives often without see
ing a star or a flower, a mountain
or a wave. We forget how big and
beautiful this world is and how small
we are. He who lives in close touch
with nature is bigger and broader
man. Therefore we need parks and
outing places for those who work
This town should have beautiful
park where the people of the mills
and stores can enjoy nature after the
labor is over. This is a necessity to
our community, and especially to the
young who should get in touch with
nature.
