The Bored" of Education

The bored" of education.
Now shout for joy and fun,
For isn't Christmas vacation
Just about to begin?
Then faces shine with pleasure
Nothing to do they lack,
Then smiles reach clear way round
And button in the back.
And then the thought comes to them,
Vacations one week long,
But we'll do our best to make it
One GRAND sweet song"
Alas! the weeks soon ended.
Again the books they're bored
Cheer up! the days of summer
With pleasant things are stored.

OPPOSE BIBLE Biz
Leon n. Levi Lodge of B'Nai Birth
Think 1t Would BE Sectarian.

A resolution was passed at the last
meeting of the Leon n. Levi Lodge
No. 67J. B'Nai Birth, in which it was
urged that the present bill before the
State Legislature, having as its pur-
pose the reading of the Bible in the
public schools, be defeated. The reso-
luton was unanimously adopted and
copies were ordered sent to the men,
bers of the Legislature from Bexar
county. The resolution as adopted fol-
lows:
Asking now for nothing more than
what our people have always asked for,
simple justice, justice for all people,
whether of our faith or not, the mem
hers of Leon y. Levi Lodge No. 90,
independent Order of B'Nai BIRTH
earnestly and sincerely request the
members Of the Legislature of the State
of Texas TO defeat the passage Of the
bill now before il, or any other bill
that may be introduced. having as its
purpose the reading of the Bible in the
public schools.
We believe that it is impossible 10
read the Bible without sectariaH bias.
We realize that the King James version
may be nOn-sectaIian in its text, but
we believe that it is decidedly sectar-
ian in its chapter headings. We know
that the sublime Lords Prayer is Won
derful and magnificent in its breadth
and depth of religious fcrvOr, but only
in its original form, and that it is de-
cidedly sectarian in the additions which
are usually made 10 il.
I'VE believe in the Bible being read
in every home and every church, and
that only good can come therefrOm, and
that it should be taught in the homes
and churches so that children may be
reared in religiousfshatters under the
guidance of their parents and not the
state. We know that many times in
the past various religions have COM
bined church and state but TO leave an
unbrOken record of dismal failure as
their history.
We believe in the wisdom and fore
sight of the fathers of our country
and believe that any such legislation
is contrary TO and would be viola
ton of their will and determination
10 forever separate religion and gov
eminent for the best interests of man
kind and civilization.
Believing that upon your full, fair
and careful consideration Won will
agree that such legislation will be
link in joining government and reli-
gion. we ask your support in opposing
legislation of this character"

Cotton Is Planted
In Colquitt County,.
Good Yield Expected

MOULTRIE, Ca, March Z. 49,
Work of planting cotton in the
Moultrie territory is we'll under way
this week. In fact, it is stated that
a number of growers have planted
their entire crop and that the work
will be finished generally by March
Is. The weather has been unusual
ly warm for several, days and the
cotton crop is expected to get off to
the earliest start ever known in this
section.
Not only are the seed being put
in the ground earlier than usual, but
quick maturing varieties, as a rule,
are being planted. The cotton pick
ing season should open during the
first few days in July. Experience
extending over a period of several
years has convinced big cotton men
that the crop must be made before
the rain season which usually sets
in in July and extends we'll up into
August. Under such conditions,
practically nothing can be done to
combat the ravages of the boil wee
vii.
While there has been no lessening
of efforts given to dairying and the
live stock industry, Colquit farmers
expect to produce at least 10000
bales of cotton in 1923 against 12,-
500 last year. It also is planned to
do it on the same acreage given the
crop last season. Greater activity
in fighting the weevil is certain.
More and higher grade fertilizers
also are being used with a view of
hurrYing the cotton to mat11ritY

F Pension Brokerage
In Prison Profitable
For Virginia Convict

RICHMOND, Va, March wal
ter S. Buchanan, who entered the
city Jail here six months ago with
$1.75 in his pockets to serve a SEN
tence for using the mails to de-
fraud, walked out today at the ex-
piration Of his term with $4,000 in
cash and a bundle of uncashed
checks.
Buchanan made the money by de-
veloping a business of procuring
pensions for Spanish war veterans
on a brokerage basis. His office was
his cell in the Jail and two fellow in
mates were his assistants. He clear
ed over $500 last month, he told
Jail officials.
During his incarceration he
spurned the ordinary prison fare
and had his meals sent in to him
at cost of $3.50 a month. Just be-
fore leaving he treated the other
prisoners to a blowout" which cost
him over 500.
Federal authorities, learning of
the profitable business he had built
up while an inmate of the Jail, in
vestigated and reported that it was
within the law"
Buchanan probably will have fur
Their opportunities to increase his
fortune in the brokerage business.
AS he walked from the portals of the
Jail he was arrested by federal au-
thorities from Washington on
charges of obtaining money under
false pretenses. 1t is alleged he said
he was World war veteran and
received a pension of 500 a month.
