EAR ENOUGH

THE heretical, rationalistic
Il forces do not seem to be
satisfied with the wreck they
have produced. They are respon-
sible for the late war. They are
also responsible for the crime
wave sweeping this country and
Europe. The orgy of sin and
crime can be traced directly to
false teachings. Like the vul-
lures, they make a feast of the
decaying carcass. Not satisfied
with the murder, expense,
wreck, and ruin produced. they
have written shorter Bible
which will perpetuate the orgy.
The astonishing thing is that
there are leaders connected with
the training of our young men
and women who have lent their
names and their influence to the
infamous, hell-born production
called the Shorter Bible. II
these organizations permit their
names and the names Of their
leaders to be attached to this
abortion, then the righteous,
orthodox Christian forces of
America should crush them. Our
boys and girls cannot be en-
trusted to such leadership. We
cannot afford to have the faith
of our children undermined by
such Infamous attacks upon
God 8 infallible Word.
The Shorter Bible, 70 called,
is one of the most blasphemous
attacks that has been made upon
Gods Holy Bible.

DISCHARGE OF DUTIES

The s. p c. A. agent showed his
usual activities last month in looking
after the welfare Of mans four-footed

accomplishes in so many ways.
He investigated 25 eases: had taken
from work one horse: humaaely de-
stroyed 4 horses and Is smaller ami
mails: distributed 8 checkrein tags:
secured homes for 5 small animals
and visited 20 stables. There we're
no prosecutions. A donation of $500
from a good friend OF the Society will
probably enable il TO furnish the
agent with an automobile so that he

dent:
Persons having domestic animals
to look after are urged to see that
they are properly housed, bedded and
fed Remember their comfort de-
ponds absolutely on your care. Stop
all holes in your stables. Take the
cat and dog into the kitchen these
cold nights. Don't put frosted bit
into your horses mouth. Warm it,
| or it will take the skin off his lips
and tongue. Horses and cows will
rarely drink before the middle Of the
day. The chill should lie taken off
the water they are given.
We are always thankful to receive
information about the improper treat

poor creature destroyed all the JOY
of my anticipation.

was torn, and the flesh lacerated to
