DISCOVERY OF ANCIENT
 WALL AGAIN INVOLVES
 HOLY SEPULCHRE SITE

JERUSALEM, Aug. '. (P)-Part of the wall enclosing Jerusalem built by Agrippa, one of the last Jewish kings, and destroyed by Titus, has been unearthed recently. About 60 yards of the wall, some four yards in thickness, have been uncovered by the Jewish exploration Society.
 This discovery has aroused deep interest in archaeological and religious circles. If this is the third of the series of walls built around Jerusa- lem. it is argued. it brings into Ques- ton the authenticity of the site of the Holy Sepulchre, which is thus placed outside the city walls.
 The third wall was commenced by Herod Agrippa about 40-44 A. D. and was interrupted by the Roman gov ernment of Syria, to be completed later by the Jews before the final seize of the city. By all accounts there were three walls which protect ed Jerusalem on the north, built successively both for the protec- ton of the weakest side of the de- fences and to afford room for the steady growth of the city at the be- ginning of the Christian era. Both the first and second walls were standing at the time of Christ and the place of crucifxion and burial must have been outside them.
 Some scholars have contended that the site of the Holy Sepulchre is inn possible because it is shut within an- cient Jerusalem, it being known that crucifxions did not take place with in the city walls. Adherents of this view, especially a large number of the English community, who have always entertained doubts about the location of the Holy Sepulchre, see further confirmation in the discov- cry of what is believed to be the third wall
 The Jewish Exploration Society, which is conducting these eXcaVa- tions, holds with Dr. W. F. Albright, Director of the American School of Oriental Research here, that the discovery of the Agrippan wall does not seriously affect this long smol- dering question:" Dr. Albright ad- mits that the situation is awkward.
 Shall we decide for the Holy Sep ulchre and against the evidence, or against the Holy Sepulchre and also against other evidence of little less cogency?" Dr. Albright ask. Neither horn of the dilemma is necessary. The present north wall of the city dates back only to Hadrian's time and represents a wholly new line of wall We are forced to the convic- tion that archaeology rarely affects the question of holy sites. The To- cation of the Holy Sepulchre will re- main just as certain or just as ob- scure as it is today"
 Along with this discovery there has been unearthed a mosaic be- According to the Greek inscription longing to the late Byzantine period. on the mosaic this was the tomb of a nun, near which there was also apparently small Christian chapel.

To Prevent the Unbalanced Reformer From
Running Counter Clockwise
By RAY ?. HOLLAND. Editor FieId and Stream.

X VERY often in a good cause some unbalanced fanatic, due to a
M superabundancs of enthusiasm, SO vigorously brings his views
w before theepeople that they are accepted as facts by many. Most
reformers are inclined to overstep It behooves the sportsman
conservationist to watch carefully that his enthusiasm does not carry
him beyond reason.
Unnecessary restrictions or Misrepresentation due to ignorance Of
existing conditions will cause the pendulum to swing back and much
harm will be done to the cause of conservation, regardless Of how sincere
those responsible may have been. A new law for the protection of wild
life should be proposed only after careful and thorough investigation.
Our views o. your views alone mean nothing.
Except in most extreme cases, conservation should never mean pro-
hibihon. The wild life of this country must be perpetuated for the good
of the greatest number. The senimentaist considers wild life sacred and
believes that nothing should be killed. The fish hog and game butcher
recognize only their capacity to destroy. The real sportsman is the happy
medium and on his efforts sane conservation must depend.
Many times in the past, organizations sincerely working for the
conservation of game have Numerically opposed each other. Their pro-
grams have been SO far apart as to border on the ridiculous. To the OUT
slider their claims and counter-caims must have appeared humorous.
The Presidents conference on outdoor recreation was called to pro-
mote effective cooperation and to act as a clearing house for all move
ments having to do with the outdoors. This organization is composed
of the many associations over the country working for the betterment Of
outdoor sports. Each unit in joining automatically obligated itself to-
abide by the decision OF the majority when questions Of policy arise.
This conference should do much to leaven the loaf and to prevent the
superenthusiatc unbalanced reformer or organization from running
countercockwisc.

A REAL SNAKE DOCTOR

TIME newspapers contain many in
= teresting Items for those who can
read between the lines. There's this
article about Joseph Girard of Atkin-
son, Kan.
Joseph had suffered for many years
from rheumatism. Walking became
more and more difficult, until at last
he was convinced that he couldn't walk
at all. The doctors were not able to
find any reason why he could not walk.
He just didn't walk, that was all.
One day he was wheeled out in the
yard to get the fresh air. He sat there
In the Jun, wishing he could get about
the way he did when he was young.
He leaned back in the chair and closed
his eyes, dreaming Of other days. When
he opened his eyes, a large snake was
crawling across his foot. Joseph for
got all about his wheeled chair and his
crutches. He forgot that he couldn't
walk. He left rapidly and on short
notice. Physicians now say that he
can walk without any trouble. Joseph
a y he can. especially If there are
any snakes In the ne~ighborhood.
These are the facts, as printed In the
daily press. Every physician Of wide
experience can tell you of similar in
stances. Many persons who think that
they can't move, do so easily in the
presence of some influence In which
they believe enough or which startles
them enough to make them move with
out thinking.
If Joseph had gone to a voodoo doc
tor or the seventh son Of a seventh
son, his recovery would have been
credited to whatever kind of treatment
he had last.
Does this mean that anything in
which a person believes will cure him?
Not at all. 1t simply means that when
the body is otherwise sound and when
only the will to move is lacking. any
thing that makes the patient want to
move worse than he wants to remain
still will enable him to move, whether.
1t be faith or fright.
But suppose Joseph had had a
broken leg? The snake might have
made him jump out Of his chair, but
1t wouldn't have made his broken bone
knit. Some Affections can be cured hy
anything that the patient believes In.
But If you break your leg. don't send
for a snake.
