THE MONKEY" BILL DEFEATED
Beaumont Enterprise).

AoCduluOll GlleSl ~ AcCis
The Texas house of representatives defeated the
nti-evolution bill of the Rev. James w. Harper Of
Mount Pleasant, and thereby spared Texas the ridi-
cule that would have been visited upon the state in
other parts of the country If the bill had become a
law.
The measure introduced by Mr.. Harper resernbled
in its essential parts anti-evolution laws adopted in a
few other states, including Tennessee where the
Scopes trial attracted international attention. The
basic provision of the snti-evolution laws is that in
sructors in schools supported by public funds shall
not be permitted to teach that man Is descended from
a lower order Of animals.
There is in this country a widespread belief that
the state has the right to specify what subjects shall
be taught in schools supported wholly or in part by
the state. Fortunately for the nations educational
system and the diffusion Of learning, this power Is
wisely exercised and in most Of the American com
monwealths all branches of human nowledge are
open to students without discrimination.
The Texas legislature has disposed Of the evolu-
ton question for the time being, but other arti-evo-
luton bills will be introduced, ad %infinituna. No man
knows how long the unoffending monkey will be !
theme for Jest and the subject Of acrimonious debate
in the nations legislative halls.
The most surprising feature Of the house vote on
the Harper anti-evolution bill is not that the bill was
defeated, but that it failed of passage by the cornpar-
atively close vote Of SO to so.

LIVING LONGER
CORPUS Christi Caller).

CORPUS Christi Caller).
If you live In the south, where mild climate is the
rule, your chances for lettering the traditional three
score and ten years are good; better, at least, than In
the north.
For proof, one may refer to DR.. John II. Kellogg OF
Battle Creek, head of a famous sanitarium. The doc
tor made his remarks in behalf Of Florida but, as the
Manufacturers Record points out, his statement is
equally applicable to other sections Of the south.
"a man who lives in a cold northern climate con-
sumes a large part Of his bodily energy in keeping
warm" Doctor Kellogg said. He has to eat and di-
gest more food than a person in a warm climate IN
order to maintain his body temperature. A mild. ge-
NAL climate is unQuestionably conducive to longevity,
because the vital energy is conserved, Persons living
in a mild climate have a lower metabolism rate, that
is, the bodily machinery is slowed down somewhat,
not enough to lessen it's efficiency, but enough to
lessen wear and tear. and so conducting to a notable
increase in ongevity."
Commenting upon the above, the Manufacturers
Record says that when the Almighty decided to ere
ate man He placed him in a warm country. and no
who were born in warm countries. The fear there
fore. on the part of some people of the north and
west that the warmer climate of the south is a dis
advantage should forever be dispelled, and the Gil
matte advantages of the south should be forever her
aided as one Of the greatest, If not the greatest. as
set which this section possesses"
Whether or not the warmer climates are con-
ducive to longevity is a question for the medical men
and the statisticians to answer. The delights we de-
rive from the span allotted us, whether in the north
or in the south, Is a question more pertinent to most
Of US.

for tho door.
"Hey, this way out!" He pointed
to anoth1 door, which did not lead

the other girls sat.
Betty hurried out Of the building,
ready to burst into tears OF disap-
potntmsnt and chagrin. She had
the stepping stone to something
better than the restaurant. She Won

Had the fact that she danced for
a living had anything to do with
this mans thinly yelled proposition?
Would he have made it If he had
found she was just an ordinary girl
who lived with her folks and worked
for money to buy her clothes?
As she walked rapidly back to the
restaurant she concluded that IL il
had not been that she was once a
dancer this man would not have
offered to employ her at all. She
recalled he had invited in only pref
ty girls to question. She wondered
who had been employed and who,
like herself had refused.
AS she entered the restaurant the
red-headed waitress came up to her.
Did you get your new position?"
she asked, cordially.

You can't afford to be too par
ticular." said the girl, in a disap-
pointed voice, as she walked away.
Betty smiled. Here was one per-
son who would be glad to see her
leave. Yet Betty would have been
glad to cooperate with her in any
way in her designs on George Harris.
Then George asked her about her
experience. She did not tell him
how ~disagreeable it had been, fear
ing he would try to dissaude her
from applying elsewhere. She told
him only that the place did not
seem to offer proper opportunity for
advancement, and so she did not
care to take it.
THAT was quite right! You may
stay here as long as you care to do
so. Don't take any position which
doesn't seem good to you"

A ]. P. Can Waive Fee

"A Justice of the peace who valves his fees in the
trial of a criminal case is not disqualified. This IS
the decision of the court of criminal appeals in the
case of a moving picture opeato, who had been fined
s25 for exhibiting a picture on Sunday in Foard
county.
1t was commended by the attorneys for the moving
picture man that the justice was without authority
In a case in which he had pecuniary interest in a
conviction. Judge A. B. Martin is responsible for the
opinion.
He found no merit in the contention and held that
a Judgment of conviction entered by a justice Of the
peace who neither claims, collects nor attempts to
collect the fees heretofore allowed a justice of the
peace under the statute is not void.
Judge Martin III the opinion took occasion to write
that a Texas justice of the peace court is a creature
of the state constitution and its life and jurisdiction
came from this source. Therefore its existence Is be-
yond the power of legislative enactment to destroy.
1t followed that the fee system may be destroyed,
the justice Of the peace placed on a salaried basis
and that's all. A legislative enactment cannot set
aside or suspend a constitutional provision. The peo-
pie make a constitution at the ballot box. It is for
the people to change the constitution. 1t Is not
the province Of lawmakers.

the terms OF whatsoever will": In
the sacraments they are individual
lied to the believer.
Thus in baptism the believer is
identified with Christ SO that his
death and burial are the same as
though they were our own: eff we
have become united with him in
the likeness of his death. we shall
be also in the likeness Of his res
direction"
Similarly In the Lords Supper
there is given the believer not only
a memorial Of the Lord Jesus but,
as Paul tells us, q true communion
with him: THE cup Of blessing
which we bless, is 1t not a COM
munion Of the blood Of Christ?
The bread which we break, is 1t not
a communion Of the body Of
Christi"
Both baptism and the Lords
Supper are very definitely connect
ed with the forgiveness Of sin: Re
pent We, and be baptized every n
OF you in the name Of Jesus
Christ unto the remission Of your
sins and We shall receive the gift
Of the Holy Spirit" 'This Is my
blood Of the covenant which Is
poured out for many unto remis-
sion Of sin" The sacramentS,
therefore, should be regarded as the
holy of holes" Of the Christian
religion to be approached not only
in reverence and sincerity, but also
with thanksgiving and praise, for
they are Gods means of grace to us.

Quick Justice Demanded

In many Of our Lords miracles
he bestowed his blessings through
very strange means, such as spit
tie and clay upon the eyes Of the
blind man whom he told to go and
wash in the pool Of Sloan; again
he spit and touched the tongue of
one who was deaf and dump and
thus healed him. These were
crude sacraments through which
he gave his blessings to those who
would not despise them.
If we inquire the reason back
Of Gods giving us the sacraments
we may find it largely in our need
Of something Of the sort. 1t Is not
that God needs them so much as 1t
Is that we need them.
In Noah's day God gave his word
that he would not again destroy the
earth with a flood. then to con-
firm the promise and seal the cove
nant he added the rainbow as a
visible sign and seal. He wrote it,
not in black and white as we say
when we want to certify ones
word, but he wrote it in all the
colors of the rainbow.
When men have been estranged
and become reconciled the spoken
word of forgiveness does not quite
complete the reconciliation. But
the hand-shake does complete it
So the mothers word Of forgive
ness is not quite enough for the
little child, but a hug and kiss
confirm the spoken word. This
lovers words of betrothal are made
more certain when sealed with the
engagement or wedding ring. Thu,
does God make his covenants Of
forgiveness and grace more sure BY
adding to his word the sacraments
Of baptism and the Lords Supper
The sacraments are not only
signs and seals to confirm the
covenants of grace, but they are tbs
divinely appointed channels tt

vidual sinner. The promises OF the
scripture are general; they are ir

THE GAMES WE PLAY
San Angelo Standard &.

The things that men will do for diversion in this
life are sometimes rather strange.
In sheboygan, Wis there lives a son Of Yugo-
slavia named Charlie PIaninshek. In the very near
future this man plans to journey to Chesterfield In
let, an unbelievably remote and frosty outpost on the
northwest shore Of Hudson Bay: Using that as a
starting point, he will get in a canoe and, by a devious
course of lake and rivers, with a few portages in the
middle. will paddle all the way to Havana, Cuba-a
distance Of 1900 miles.
It is the sort Of trip that most men would look on
as q tedious chore. Charlie Planinshek will undergo
all of the hardships and dangers that the early ex-
plorers faced-except, perhaps, that he will not have
to cope with hostile redskins. But he is doing it, not
because he has to, but because he wants to. 1t Will
be his recreation; a sort of vacation trip.
That's the way it is with recreation. Some people
turn to golf, some take to collecting rare books; some
like to wade through icy streams to catch fish, some
enjoy spading and wedding their flower gardens;
some 60 in for sailing boats, some fall back on ANA
teur photography. Each mans play would be a dead
w bore to someone else. There isn't any unanimity
about any of it.
We don't have a great deal Of time to play-not
even the luckiest. Out Of al eternity we have a scant
handful Of years: and in this brief space we are up
against the necessity Of packing as much full and
complete living as we possibly can, so that our lives
NAV be as rich and significant as time and circlm-
stances will allow. Why, then. do we choose our
recreations so q~ueerly? Why should a man like
Charlie Planinshek. for instance, decide that pad
ding a canoe the length Of a continent is the best
wav he can use his time?
If we could find self-expression in our jobs the
problem would be s%implified. That is why such d.
verse people as artists, professional athletes and sail
ors are to be envied. They perform for their liveli-
hood the very tasks that they like best. Most OF us
are not so lucky. We make our livings at jobs that
suit us only indifferently; it is in our spare time that
we have to try doing the things we really enjoy.
