Sanskrit appears in its most an
cient form in the Vedas, which date
at least one thousand years before
Christ. The history Of San SKIRT lit
erature divides into two periods, the
Vedic ard the classic. These two
partly overlap each other, but the
later yedic works are distinguished
by the subjects with which they deal
and their archaic style The word
Veda, means knowledge, and books
of knowledge. These sacred books
are divided into four classes By the
Brahmans: first, Rig Veda, or the
lore of praise hymns, second, va
jur-Veda, the lore of prayer; third
Sami Veda lore Of chants; 4th Aih-
arva, Veda, devotional services 20

ligious offices. Many speculative
philosophers have had their birth in
India some Of them in strict DISC
bedience to the teachings Of Vedas.
Five centuries before the christian
era a newer and purer religion was
taught by the monk Of royal birth,
who became known as Buddha, the
Enlightened one. He taught his
people to live in charity, one with
another and TO practice truth and
morality and TO overthrow caste
and 60 abolish the Brahman sacii-
fees: The sacred books Of Buddha
are called the Tripitika. They are
written in a dialect Of the later
Sanskrit and are larger than the
writings of the old and new tesla
ment. II would be impossible To-
acknowledge the full indebtedness
Of western litcraturcs TO the liter
airy thoughts Of India. We have bor-
rowed from every department bat
nowhere have we found treasures
richer in romance and fairy tale
than here. Stories written in far
away India have been the delight
of our story tellers. India is rich
in literary treasures and We are
richer too, because We have Dor
rowed from their storchouse.

Ex-Deputy Marshal Leaves Memplis for McNeis Island, Washington; Con fessed Grafter.

Memphis, Jane 7.--Tyree Taylor left last night for the federal p?ia- on on McNeil Island near Tacoma, Wash, following an order of trans fer signed by Judge J. w. Ross yes terday afternoon.
 Transfer of the prisoner was made under authority from Attorney Gen eral Daugherty. and, it is understood, largely upon Taylor'a request that he not be returned to Atlanta prison Taylor has disliled Atlanta prison ever since he learned that 1G or l2 men who were convicted on his tes- timony were going there.
 The confessed grafter left Men- phis over the Frisco Railroad at g o'clock, accompanied by Marshal w. Y. Applcby and arooial officer. The party went by way Of Kansas City.

However, l. seems that the pardon caR2algn has blown up" since The Commercial Ap- peal barred Taylor's scheme to pub lie gaze and secured statements from several jurors who declared that they would not assist him in his fight for freedom.
 Federal officials would not say last night why Taylor was transfer red to McNeil Island. They did not deny, however, that he was trans forrcd from Atlanta because ot fear for his safety in company with pris- oners who were convicted on his tes- tim0ny.

The Jonesboro Evening Sun of June 6th says: MT. and Mrs. l.

 Roy Hoffman, their son-in-laW who lived with them, and Sammy Gilmore, their son, were arrested lon charges of having maGh in pos session.
 Constable Copeland states that young Hoffman made a confession telling the process Mrs, Gilmore used in making the wiisRey on the kitch- len stove. He stated that she thor oughly cooked the mash in a stew htlLlG, bOtlCu IL lIltO tt dS5 tti4t squeezed it out, officers say. Young Fillmore was still in jail this after Enoon. The aged couple gave bond in the sum of S1,000 last night.
 Young Hoffman gave bond for .$1,000 this morning.
 Their eases are set for trial to- morrow in Justice Reeves court.
 Hoffman told officers, according to their statement, that he was hard pressed financially and forced to get money and that the Gilm0res induced him to join them in the il- licit business.

 Nevertheless there may be genuine patriotism in the Picking presidents suggestions; and if it would really result in the unity of all China, the Canton president might well efface himself. China is a huge country, in area and population, yet SO homogeneous in race and insti- tutions that 1t seems no more suit ed to division into two republics than the United States. It's chief need now is a leader capable of ef- fecting reunion.

nELINOuENT GIRLS

An article which tells of modern methods of restoring the delinquent girl to normal, useful and happy life is full of suggestions which, if put into practice in home and commit Inity, would prevent much of that delinquency in the first place. If humane treatment and sympathetic understanding of her problems can point the way to the cure of the psychopathic or abnormal girl, the lon the right road in the beginning If learning and doing can restore the girl committed to an institution to a normal and active niche in the community, the right sort of educa- |tion might have kept her there from the start.
 The fine work done by number of state correctional institutions is deserving of careful study with this thought in mind-in the end proven |tion is more important than cure. A community keenly aware of it's duty to it's citizens will not grudge the expenditure on hospitals, schools land recreation facilities.
 Recreation has been defined as the constructive use of leisure time.' The most successful correc- tional schools have found that noth ing is of greater importance in car rying out their purpose than recrea- tion. Athletics, games, plays, pa geants, a developing folk-theater movement, orchestras, community choruses, commemorative festivals, camping and hiking, are proving to be the surest antidotes to the jazz and ready recreation of the day.
 This discovery has already been made in many state corrective or ganizations. The outside commu nifty would do we'll to follow their example.

WORKING EFFICIENCY.

More interesting even than the stories of record automobile pro duction are figures showing the productivity of labor at present compared with the boom period
 Detroit dispatches say that the Ford plant is turning out more cars than ever before, with much small CT pay roll The Dodge plant is said to be making as many cars a day with 15,000 men as it used to with 24,0O0. Other plants re- port similar situation.
 This is not peculiar to the auto mobile industry, either. It is true of industry in general, and has attracted special notice in the build ing industry.
 The improvement is partly, no doubt, the result of economic pres sure. When work became slack and jobs became competitive again, it was natural to work . little harder. Business and professional men have done the same thing, under the stress of necessity. But such speed ing up is probably for the most part unintentional and unconscious-a phase of the new psychology of a more wholesome business situation. Everybody works harder now. It is in the air.
 As far as the workmen are con- cerned. it is unquestionably the way of prosperity. Nearly all classes of workmen are still getting wages considerably higher than those be- fore the war The way to keep those wages, and to gain new in creases rather than to suffer de- creases, is to prduce more.
