MUST HAVE CRIME NEWS

After trying the experiment of emitting all news of crime from its columns for a week, the Daily Ob- server of Fayetteville, N. C., an- nounces the plan to have been a com plete failure and will return crime news to it's place in the sun-on the front page.
 It states that the no-crime experi- ment is being abandoned 'in re. sponse to an overwhelming public demand" It is declared that in a poll of it's readers on the subject the vote in favor of crime news was 60 to 1.
 l Not only did the readers complain of the omission, but the circulation of the newspaper fell off materially during the week in which the expert ment was tried. spsaslgasaz | Like those of many other attempt

BIBLE ANNIVERSARY

The American Bible Society and kindred organizations are preparing to commemorate this year the Tooth anniversary of the first printing of the Bible in English in 1925, begun at Cologne, Germany, and continued at Worms.
 At first only the gospels of Mat thew and Mark were printed, follow ed shortly by the entire New Testa- ment and later by portions of the Old Testament, all being translations of William Tyndale, Protestant martyr, who was strangled and his body burned at the stake on October 6. 1856, for heresy.
 Prior to this, however, Caxton had printed an English translation of The Golden Legend, a popular religious work which contained portions of the scriptures.
 Many manuscripts of parts of the Bible in English existed before the art of printing had been invented but most of these were in the old English which would not be intelligi ble to modern readers of our Ian guage.
 Of Tyndale's first printed edition of the gospels only one fragment ol sixty-two pages is now in existence being in the British Museum. O the second printing one perfect copy 1 is preserved in the Baptist College at Bristol and one imperfect copy al St. Paurs London.
 l Many later translations of thu Bible were made, the one longest 1T use being the Authorized Version, published in 1911, better known al the King James Version. The Brit 1 ish Revised Version, completed il 1885, and the American Standard Version, published in 1901, are th'
 texts now in general use. 1 While theological controversy stil
 rages today, freedom of thought ha made much headway in the 400 year
 since William Tyndale perished b.
 the cord and torch.

MECkLENBURG MYTH?

On May 20 there will be celebrated at Charlotte, N. C., the 156th ami versary of the Mecklenburg Declara- ton of Independence, a set of resolu- tions said to have been passed there in 1775, asserting the independence of the inhabitants of Mecklenburg county from British authority.
 While the tradition concerning this action by the Mecklenburg citizens has persisted throughout a century and a half, there is little to establish it as an historical fact.
 The alleged resolutions were first published from memory in 1919, or A years after their reputed adoption and as then published resembeled in part the true Declaration of Independ ence of July 4, IT'S.
 It is established, however, that resolutions of considerable vigor ir opposition to British rule were pass Cd III MSShiCuDulS COuuty Ou Mdy 31, 1775. Due to the fact that both the old and new style calendars were used in the colony, the discrepancy between dates may be explained, as the date of May 31 new style would correspond to May 20 old style.
 Whether the resolutions actuall, declared the county's independenc, or not, the patriotism of Mecklen burg citizens of that day is unques

MOTHERS DAY

Mothers Day, which comes on the second Sunday in May, tomorrow, will be observed throughout the United States in response to the annual proc lamation by the President
 AS is we'll known, the object of the day is to recall memories of the mothers who have passed to the be- wound and to pay special tributes of affection to those living. The badge for the day is the white carnation, emblamatic of the purity, beauty and fidelity of a mothers love. By some the red carnation is worn in honor of living mothers.
 Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadelphia originated the idea of Mothers Day, which was observed in several cities in 1910, the custom being extended rapidly in the following years.
 Congress in 1913 passed resolu. tion offered by Congressman J. Thos Heflin of Alabama (now senator) rec ommending observance of the day by it's members and by the executive de partments at Washington. In 1914 Congress authorized the President tC designate the second Sunday in May of each year as Mothers Day, the first proclamation under this authority being issued by President Wilson or May 9, 1914.
 Few of us reflect as often as we should on the debt of love and grati tude we owe to our mothers. By thoughts and acts of sincere affec tion on Mothers Day, we not only honor them, but also honor ourselves

WHAT FOLKS WANT

If one were to ask number of people to say what the national, state, and local governments should do for the benefit of the public, the answers received would probably include the following:
 Reduced taxes.
 Reduce the number of public off cials and employees.
 Reduce all public expenditures.
 In the same breath many would probably demand that the government should also:
 Build more roads.
 Provide better schools.
 Enforce the laws more effectively.
 Erect more public buildings.
 Pay off public debts.
 It does not require a great deal oi intelligence to comprehend that the accomplishment of these directly op posing objects is impossible.
 If people continue to vote bonds for roads, bridges, schools and public buildings. if they demand more eff cials of the law, better sanitary and health measures, and <so on, it is going to cost more money, with ar inevitable increase in taxation.
 Some economy and increased eff ciency in government might be eff fected, however, if it were possibl, to make public office holders ant employees perform an honest day: work for fair days pay.

sarily imply that crime news must be played up in all its sordid details in order to satisfy the average read CT.
 Persons of morbid tastes no doubt relish exaggerated and horrible nar- ratives of crime, but it is safe to say that a majority are content with a simple, matter of fact statement of what occurred.
 In handling news of crime, as in handling all news, a newspaper should be guided by gold motives and good judgment, neither of which lead to extemes of elaboration or suppress sion.

Two African Natives
Arrive at StubbS Home

Two natives of Africa arrived this
past week at the home of DR.. and
Mrs. r. II. Stubs, 133 State street
and the plan is that they are to
make their permanent residence
there. becoming mem <1rs of the
household. These two African ma
tives, who have travelled far, We're
sent by Robert Stubbs, formerly Of
this city, who is located there in the
mahogany trade. A raft of the logs
were being brought to Boston and
Mr.. Stubbs took the opportunity to
make arrangements for the passage
of the two Africans to the Hub. They
were in charge of the radio operator
on the company's boat and were sent
down from Boston to Augusta by
him.
These strange little fellows are
nothing more than pair of African
parrots of the common variety, call
ed gray. They cannot speak United
States and the only language they
know is that of their native state.
When they jabber, it cannot be de-
MED that they are speaking African.
This kind of parrot is said to be
among the easiest to teach the hum
an tongue. One of the birds is to be
called AKIN. named after the place
where Mr.. Stubbs is now located.

ing they can teach the gray strang-
ers to say. "Howdy, Rob-" before

OUR IMMIGRATION
UNDERGOING TESTS
DIR, F|NNIE DESCRIBES

All things considered the United
States Is the best country in the
world to live in, and those who come
here owe this country at least the
courtesy of learning it's language,
Rev. George A. Finnie Of Lewiston
told the meeting Of parish clubs in
this city, Monday evening, the oc-
casion being the meeting Of repre-
sentatives of the church parish clubs
with the South Parish Mems Club at
the Church Vestry.
Ralph G.. Webber OF the South
Parish Club presided, his inlroduc-
tory remarks following the supper.
Doctor Finnie's subject was Immi-
grafton. Always an entertaining
speaker he was especially happy and
interesting by reason of his expert
enced acquaintance with the working
of the immigration law.
He came to this country 10
years ago and compared conditions
then with those under the law now
here when nearly a year passed be-
fore he was able to gain admission
into this country of his two sisters.
The speaker paid high tribute
to this country, but he made merry
in some of his comparisons between
mayors in this country and those in
England and Scotland. In fact
laughter and applause were of fire.
quent occurrence in the half hour.
He described the details. the affi-
dayits, the examinations at the port
OF departure, the preferences that
are allowed under the law, as to
father and mother. minors and those
who promise to work upon the land.
He believes the law is having an ex-
cellent effect. Every immigrant
among the affidavits he makes prom
ises to take out naturalization papers
as soon as is permissible. Those who
seek to desert families, who endeavor
to come on errands hostile to our
government. are, when the consular
service is capable, carefully weeded
out on the other side.
He believes the law is a definite
and greatly needed step toward pro-
tectinS this country from hordes of
Immigrants, which it is unable to
assimilate. People do not realize
how strict are the requirements un-
, til they have experienced them. The
speaker related many instructive in
cidents illustrating the processes
through which the applicant for ad-
mission is now forced to go and
made it evident that where the ex-
aminations are properly conducted
the undersirables find great difficulty
in getting into the country.
