Why Study The Bible ?

most popular book in the world.
,. From every standpoint i,
is the greatest of books. Es la1-
guage is unequalled by any 9th

unmatched; its history and bioe.
raphles are majestic; its inspira,
ton came from God himself and
its influence for good in the

of Gods will towards mankind.
1t contains the right solution ol

Murder Record
Wilmington Morning Star.

The number of murders com.
mlttcd in this country last year
was 1000, and the previous year
shows a similar record. In the
city of Philadelphia one hundred
murders were committed, and
the record for the country as a
whole is without a parallel tor a
country enjoying peace condi-
tons. The situation betokens
an undermining of moral con-
ditions which is indeed appalling.
The fundamental law of the land
recognizes the sacredness of hu.
man lite, and all of our institutions
are built upon this conception of
civilized conditions, and the rec
ord demands and should receive
the most serious consideration of
the public. We are prone to look
10 the courts for the preservation
of order and protection of life,
and too often forget that the
courts are no different from OF

ed by public sentiment, The
