Ancient Scripture Records
 of Scientific Facts


 The Bible is the book of instruc- tion for the children of God. God has caused it to be written and to be preserved for them who seek after Him. It records many his torical events pertaining to the Children of Israel and the Church of Christ. These histories are true and may be relied upon. Neverthe- less the Bible cannot be called a book of history Neither can it be called book of science although whenever a statement is made which relates to science that statement may he depended upon to be true and scientifically correct. Let us examine a few of theae statements or allusions to scientific facts which we find in the Word of God.
 Today the smallest school child knows that the earth is round. A little over 800 years ago the wisest men of the world believed the earth to be flat. In 1492 A.

On most of his trip to the north he went alone in the field, preferring to work in his own way and not to be connected with large parties.
 On his last trip to the Territory he chartered the Tolo, a local gas boat, and spent about one month cruising in this vicinity. Later he went to Alaska Peninsula points and from there to the Pribiloff Islands. At that place he became

Z LOS ANGELES, May 11.-A slip of girl, with bobbeo locks and an ever present smile, Georgia Cole man, bounces her way to greater fame from springy diving boards.
 Diving is a serious business for this fun-loving 17-year-old miss, who over a period of less than a year and half has become known as one of the outstanding feminine divers Of the world Scarcely a day passes but she is polishing up her repertoire of plain and fancy dives for future competition.
 The list of honors she has won lis remarkable considering the time she has been participating in com- petition. She was the youngest member of Uncle Sam's athletic representation to the Olymp c eames at Amsterdam last year. She did her share by taking close sec onds in the high and low board events, while the veteran Betty Becker Pinkston took the platform dive by decision of the judges.
 AS a member of the Los Angeles Athletic Club, Miss Coleman was | eecond in the national senior To- foot outdoor championship in 1928 This year she has won the nation ! al senior 10-foot indoor title, anc placed second in the national B. foot indoor event.
 ] It was a year ago last Decem- bcr when she first came to the attention of Fred Cady, veteran L A. A. c. coach. Two months later she entered the junior nationa championships-her first meet-ane won hands down.

Periodical Declares
That Kellogg Pact
May Bring Aban-
donment of Posts

Abandonment of border posts, in
GLIDING Fort Brown, Fort Ringgold,
Fort Mcintosh, Fort Bliss, and other
frontier gariSons, is seen as prob
able outcome of 'retrenchment"
NOES of President Hoer's tax reduc-
ton plan by the Army and Navy
Journal in its isue of July 27.
The periodical predicts a distinct
possibility of the post abandonment
as the first action in economizing
on army and navy appropriations.
After comparing the size Of the
United States army with that of
other world powers, and the cost
Of maintaining it, the article goes
on to say:
Another entrenchment move
which may be brought up IS the
abandonment of posts. In view Of
the kellogg treaty it may be sug-
.gested that posts along the border
be abandoned-posts such as Fort
Brown, Fort Ringgold, Fort McIn-
toSh, Fort Clark, Camp Marina,
Fort Bliss. Camp Harry H. Jones,
Fort Hauchuca, and Camp Stephen
B. Little.
"Other movements which the
president may consider are the
consolidation of branches and the
elimination of obsolete departments
and methods.
Our standing army of 10000
men is smaller than that of any
other nation with the exception of
Germany, which is limited under
the treaty. Japan, next smallest,
has 100000, and France leads with
an armed force of $4,000.
ut also takes smaller per cent
of our national wealth and a small
Ter per capita expenditure to main
tain the United States army than
in any other nation"
The publication goes on to say
that a reduction of the service
mans salary is not likely. He is
paid better than the soldier or
seaman in other countries, but only
in comparison with higher living
standards in the United States, it
is pointed out.

REPORT VALLEY
BUSES IN WAR
Independent Operators On
Irregular Schedule Said
To Be Fighting M. P.

a bus war, between Cne NlSSou1A
Pacific Transportation company
and a half dozen or more mde-
nendent operators, has broken out
in the Valley, and the state rail-
way commission probably VIII ne
called on soon to take a hano III
the matter.
According to reliable information
on the matter, the war is pelng
waged against the Missouri Pacl1lc
transportation company mainly oy
individuals who we're formerly bus
drivers for the concern, and who
later have purchased buses ana
gone into business for themselves,
as service car drivers.
It is believed the visit OF P. j..
Nehf, president and general man
ager of the Missouri Pacific trans
portation company, to the Valley
Monday had some bearing on &C
ton planned in connection WIN TN
independent operators.
Nehf came to Brownsville In his
private car, accompanied by Geo.
Winsor, district manager OF the
firm. but he could not be reached
for an interview.
At least siI independent oper-
ators are now in business, some OF
them making the run from the Val
ley to Corpus Christi, and others III
the Valley.
They do not run on schedule, and
officials of the company claim that
they run just ahead of the Mis-
souri, Pacific cars, and pick up q
number of passengers. Reduced
rates are also said to be put into
force in some cases, where the COM
petition is keen for a passenger.
1t is reliably reported that the
Missouri Pacific transportation
company will appeal to the state
railroad commission for relief
claiming that the independent bus
operators, should come under the
state railway commission regula-
tions, even though they are oper-
ated by the owner, without a fixed
schedule, and as a service car, in
stead of part Of a transportation
