Come listen, my wage-earning bro
Their
And learn why your troubles endure;
Don't think that kind nature, your
mother,
Intends such as you to be poor.
On you lies the fault if there's any.
Don't blame men like Morgan or
Gould,
For how can the few rule the many,
If the many refuse to be ruled?
AS long as you kneel you'll be flouted
AS long as you're meek you'll meet
scorn, Il &sl
AS long as you fear, you'll be routed;
AS long as you yield, you'll be shorn
Through ups and downs stand to-
ge,ber,
Be tue to your brothers like men;
Nne- yuor Deaten don't show the
white feather,
But rally for battle again.
Don't build up a sci,emer's ambition
Don't put good man on the shelf,
Don't give to base politician,
The vote you might cast for yourself
March forward with purposes blend.

NO TRAINS TO BE DIS
CONTINUED ON A. B. & A.

ATLANTA, Ga.,-A report to the
effect that the night passenger trains
over the ATLANTA, Birmingham & At
lantic Railway, handling through
sleepering cars between Atlanta and
Townsville and Atlanta and Way
cross, should be discontinued, is with
out foundation, it was stated BY Off
Gals here. The discontinuance Of
these trains has not at any time been
considered by the Receiver, according
to the officials.
While the passenger traffic of the
A. B. & A. railroad, as of all other
lines. has been and is light at this
season OF the year, said officials, there
has been steady improvement since
the restoraation of the night train
service in October.
Announcement was made by officials
today that beginning the fifth of May
May. weekend tickets on the basis
of 90 per cent of the round trip fare
will be inaugurated to Atlanta, Warm
Springs and Brunswick, from all sta
tons in South Georgia, good to re-
turn until the Tuesday following date
OF sale. Similar reduced rates will
be authorized to Birmingham, and the
usual Sunday excursion fares to Bruins
wick will begin on May 9TH, while the
Sunday rates from Atlanta to Warm
Springs will start on May 81.
To provide for. the usual summer
travel some additionaY train service
will be inaugurated by or before, the
effective date of the reduced rates
just mentioned. Conditions generally
are improving SO that there is every
expectation that the passenger traffic
will continue to improve and passen-
ger service will be extended and i'm
proved from time to time as the ad-
ditional traffic justifies.

PLAYED Chess on Plain. Of Troy.


Chess is one of the most ancient
pastimes known to mankind. One Of
the Greek legends ascribes its origin
to the epic siege of Troy, 1900 B. c.,
which is the subject of Homer's HAD.
This weary siege was supposed to
have lasted ten years Long night
watches around the campnres Of the
Greeks were necessary to guard
against surprise and night attacks.
To enliven these waste hours, Pala-
medes, one of the Greek host on alien
Trojan soil, invented various pastimes
for his countrymen, whose spirits SO
often tagged. Among these he In
vented the noble game of chess, and
kings and castles. knights and pawns,
still move In illustration Of the great
er game which was then being played
on the plains of Troy.

Crowd Railroads
On New Year. S Day

Extra sections had to be added to
nearly every long distance train on
the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore
and Ohio railroads yesterday, to ac-
commodate the homeward bound holi-
day passenger rush.
Traffic was considerably heavier
than before the holidays, railroad Of
ficials declared, explaining that every
body appeared to have stayed to the
limit ftheir vacation period and all
wanted to get back to business at the
same time. Both the P. R. R. and
B. & o. stations here handled many
passengers during the day.
In general, however, every report
shows travel was not so heavy this
Christmas and New Year as in years
past. The transportation facilities OF
the railroads have been taxed, but not
overwhelmed as in many previous
years, and the railroad companies had
little trouble in taking care of the
crowds.

What They Think
Of Sypherd's Bible
Prof. Stewart, of Nashotah
Theological Seminary,
Writes on Local
Publication

Bibles, whether in the home, the
Sunday School, the law-court, or the
hotel, are too Enthusiastically biblical.
Covers, edges, print, the numbering
of chapters and verses, by long asso-
citation have given the Bible an arti-
fetal isolation from every other kind
of book. Saints in stained-glass DO
not look like men and women: no
more do Bibles look like books. If the
conventional trappings of the Bible
give it an added dear, familiar holi-
ness, in the minds of those who love
it, it is also fact that this same
biblical halo oppresses or depresses
others, gives an impression OF SNUG
| and stodgy dullness, and seems to go
with glum faces and puritanical Sun
day afternoons.
1t is amazing to see what differ
ence is made by the mere changes
of external form which Professor
Sypherd has made in this book. Thls
is no "twentieth-century" version-lt
is the King James version without
adulteration. But because the pages,
paragraphs, verses Of poetry, and
other such things, are made like those
of anv well-edited modern book, the
first effect, and very striking effect,
is the release from all appearance OF
conventional bibilcalism; and that is
very welcome release.
1t is again fortunate that the
whole Bible is not included, but Sc
lection has been made on the basis OF
''the relative significance OF the
stories, songs, essays, letters OF the
Bible as literature and in literature
Nobody who cares at all about the
Bible would agree with the editor (o1
with any editor) in all matters Of
choice. For ourselves, we could az
without Esther more conlfortabl!
than without some of the Wisdom O.
/ Solomon or Ecclesiasticus; and we d.
r not like to find so little of Mark il
comparison with Matthew and Lake
There is a short general introduc
ton, and the various books are pre-
: faced with very brief notes, alway
with view to the right placing o
the documents as literature, accord
ing to modern. critical hypothese
Here again, there is ample room TO
Y disagreement. In particular, it wi
o seem to many that the character G
n Mark as the pre-eminent biogrdpha
q and of the other source of Mdtthet
= and Luke, which contained " sayings
j. of Christ, should have been noted
ever the briefest of introduction
r. And is it not bit hasty to say will
