SOUTHERN BAPTISTS TAKE
FORWARD STEP

Among the definite actions taken by
the Southern Baptist Convention at its
recent session at Jacksonville, Fla,
were the following:
| Extended the period of the rs million
Campaign from May /, 1924, to Deem
Der, 1924, and authorized the setting
up of a more intensive Southwide pro-
gram for the completion of that task
Instructed the Home Mission Board
to establish at New Orleans a first
class general and research hospital
work on same to begin not later than
two years after the site has been
transferred to the board by the cit
Mems of New Orleans.
Created Country Life Commission
which Will seek to find means for the
larger development Of the country
churches of the denomination.
Named women on the boards, exc
cutive committee and other general
committees Of the body for the first
time.
Referred to special committees for
a years further study of the questions
of a new theological seminary and a
Southwide university.
Decided TO cooperate more fully in
the Baptist World Alliance, represent
ing all the Baptist groups of the
world. which will meet at Stockholm,
Sweden in July, 1928.
Refused to name a commission to
cooperate with a similar body from
the Northern Baptist Convention in
the formulation of a new Baptist Con-
fession of Faith.
Every agency of the convention re-
ported the best work in its history
the advances on the foreign fields in
some respects indicating larger pro-
portionate gains than in the homeland.
There are now 1926 churches coop
Grating with the Convention, having a
combined membership Of 3,2S425s.
These churches have 21,201 Sunday
schools with an enrolment of 2.201.-

DEADLY GRADE CROSSINGS.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
comuiies statistics OF accidents involv-
ing loss OF life or injury in which rail-
roads are involved. According to these
figures. las tyear 1912 persons were killed
and 4,s1s persons injured in accidents at
grade crossings. Most of these were
automobile accidents.
AS a result, a campaign, having as its
slogan Gross Crossings Cautiously" is
being instituted by the American Rail-
road Association, which will endeavor to
impress upon all who use the road which
passes over railroad track. both in this
country and in Canada, of the need of
stopping. looking and listening and of
letting the train go by first.
OF this campaign President Harding
said; "The complete scope Of such an
effort would mean the saving Of thous-
ands OF lives, the prevention of many
more thousands of injuries and incl
dentally the prevention of great prop
erty loss.
'of course. the ideal solution is ELM

AS we finished our CLAIMS he set his
plate to one side, and without waiting
for the landlord TO remove 1t. pulled
out his notebook again and turned his

For there had flashed upon me the
reason for the patronizing manner
which he had adopted toward me, and
the vague prejudice I had against him
crystalized into active dislike.

the class of men who regard women as

80 NEW AnMLNlsrRATIoN

/ With two new county commission
ers elected and Commissioner T. II.
Wentworth returned by an ovec-
whelming majority. the people CT
Escambia county have registered their
disapproval OF highhanded methods
which have been employed by the old
board OF county commissioners, ana
have shown conclusively that the peo-
| pie appreciate honest effort toward a
business administration of county af-
fairs.
The two newly elected commission
ers, have an opportunity presented to
them to serve the people OF their dis
tricts at a time when as never before
business administration is needed.
The county commissioners have at
their command more than a million
dollars in county and federal aid
which they will be called upon to dis
burse within the next year. and upon
how that money is spent will depend
not only the success of Escambia
county's road building program, but
perhaps her entire future.
The Journal believes that the men
who have just been elected to serve
the peole come to the new duties with
the full realization Of the Importance
Of their duties, and that the mistakes
Of their predecessors will serve as
guides to aid them in governing their
own actions.
The day has come when the man or
the clique who attempts to override
the will of the people will find himself
or itself riding to a fall. The day is
here when one dollar paid into the
county treasury from the hard-earned
money Of the people of this county,
must do one dollars worth of work,
and when Escambia county must take
it's place with other progressive coun-
ties of Florida and not go before state
committees as a mendicant, glad to
get the crumbs from the rich mans
table, but as one with the right not
only to ask but to demand its share
Of public monies.
When the people of Escambia county
voted the bonds for road Improvement
they did so with the understanding
that the money from this bond issue
was to be used to link this county with
the outside world,-not for the pur-
pose of building roads which simply
lead from one section of the county
to another section of the county.
The county was bonded for $4,000
900 for development and unless the
people of this county had expected
large development from these bonds
they would never have voted them.
nor would they have been justified
in so doing.
To see that county development is
served through the spending of this
bond money is one of the main duties
of the commissioners. This means the
building of the Ferry Pass bridge, for
one thing.-and perhaps the main
unless the county funds
are we'll and wisely spent, such de-
velopment is not possible.
The Journal congratulates the new
and Commissioner
Wentworth on their election, believ-
ing that with the new regime a more
administration viii be eff
fected and that county affairs win be
in a more businesslike
way than formerly.

As Allen brakes long, facile fingers

II watched him with fascinated, nysti-

What he was doing I hadn't the
slightest idea. Of course, / had never

rice paper from my father which had
been in my care for so long. And Mr.

What comfort broods about its form.
What homely grace invites the eye.
How oft through childhood's sudden
storm
1t crooned its crealxing lullaby.
All, not the least among its charms
Those gentle noises day by day,
While safe within my mothers arms
My baby griefs were rocked away.
How oft we toddlers laughed and

In ceaSeiess chatter by It's side,
While back and forth it slowly swayed
And mothers busy needle piled.
Or home from school. BY love made

We captured her without delay,
And round that dear old chair we told
The thrilling annals Of the day
Its ample form breathes peace and rest
Loves magic ever fingers there.
