Opposition to Census
Traced to the Bible

During the census taking in Rus
STA, government officials charged
with this task encountered strong
and persistent opposition In GER
tain peasant districts against the
count. They explained to the au-
thorities that counting the human
beings and the horses would bring
bad luck and that this was an an
cient belief, which had many times
been put to the test. This strange
feeling of impending danger in the
face of counting possessions is not
restricted to Russia. Flemish peas
ants never count their sheep or
geese nor any Of their personal pos
sessions, in the belief that count
ing will bring an end to a run of
good luck. The origin of this curl
Gus belief, that seems so wide
spread, is to be found in the Bible.
1t will be recalled that David, the
king of Israel, was severely pun
fshed by the Lord for his census
of the people. The Lord counted it
as evidence Of pride and insufficient
trust in the strength of the pro-
tector of Israel.-Pierre Van Paas-
sen. in the Atlanta Constitution.

Cats Had Reuenge?

] A story that recalls Bishop Hat
to and other medieval legends
comes from a small Hungarian
town and is reported in the Pesti
Hirlap. A man of seventy was
found dead with broken skull and
his face horribly mutilated. He
was recluse, had no friends and
his only companions had been some
tame pigeons. which he had treated
with the greatest affection and
care. On their behalf he waged a
relentless war against the neigh
borhood's cats, whose cadavers he
threw on the manure pile. His face
was discovered in an almost I'M
recognizable state, bitten and
scratched, and the nose had entire
ly disappeared. The | 'asants be-
lieve that the cats took revenge,
formed shock battalion, attacked
him en- masse and did away with
him.-Pierre Van Paassen, in the
Atlanta Constitution.
