in any quantity and c. any place is
now entirely lawful, it follows that
sections providing that possession of
any quantity shall constitute prima
facie evidence of the purpose of sale
is repealed. Likewise, the brief argues
the one-gallon presumption of purpose
of sale is repealed.
"It can hardly be said that a sta
tute which makes possession lawful
does not repeal a prior act making
such possession evidence of an un-
lawful transaction" (The Attorney
Generals office, in advisory opinions
has contended that the gallon pre-
sumption" of the burlington Act is
still in effect.
On the question of transportation
(Epps, evidence of the state tended
to show, was transporting Z half-gal-
Ions of bootleg liquor) the brief ar
CUES that the state must allege, as we'll
as prove, Cd That defendant trans
ported alcoholic beverages and also
one or more of the following (a) that
the liquor was being transported for
purpose of sale, CD that the liquor
was not tax paid, Co that they ex-
ceeded one gallon in quantity or (d)
that the cap or seal on the container
had been opened or broken.
1t is contended that the Epps in
dictment charged none of these es-
sentials affirmatively.
The Epps defense was that he was
at home attending to his wife in
child birth at the time officers al
legged they saw him jump out the car.

(Ihe international Uniform Lesson
for April "a is Mark 9:2-1O, the Golden
Text being Mark 9:7, "This is my be-
loved Son; hear we him.'D
THE PRIVILEGE Jesus gave to
Peter, James and John, of witnessing
his TRANSPORTATION was not given
them for the purpose of entertaining
them. 1t was for the purpose of in
spring them to greater service. Vision
voice and venture are found together
again and again in our Bible. When
venture they have failed to serve
Gods purpose.
The Vision.
Six days after Peters confession
of faith in Jesus as "the Christ, the
Son of the living God" Jesus taketh
with him Peter and James and John,
and bringeth them up into a high
mountain apart by themselves; and
he was TRANSPORTED before them; and
his garments became glistening, ex-
ceeding white, so as no fuller on earth
can whiten them. And there appear
ed unto them Elijah with Moses; and
they were talking with Jesus" duke
adds that they spae of his decease
which he was about to accomplish at
Jerusalem :. ."And there came q
cloud overshadowing them: and there
came a voice out of the cloud. This
is my beloved Son: hear we him. And
suddenly looking round about, they
saw no one any more, save Jesus only
with themselves"
The Nature of the Vision.
This then was the vision and this
the voice seen and heard by the high
ly privileged inner circle of our Lord S
disciples. 1t came about, Luke tells u.s.
"as he was praying" For brief time
God gave transparency to the veil Of
his human flesh and allowed the full
glory of his deity to shine forth to
the utter amazement of those who
but lately had become assured that
their Master was infinitely more than
a man among men. Their hearts bore
them testimony that he was "the Son
of the living God" Now by a vision
of God and by the voice of God the
testimony of their hearts is confirm
ed to these "eye witnesses of his
glory" Feter calls it a revelation "of
the power and coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ" In other words, God
staged for these three favored dis
ciples a "preview" of that glorious
spectacle of our Lords second COM
ing at the end of this age when men

The appeal will come before the
court on what is technically called a
motion in arrest of Judgment, the ap-
pellant's counsel arguing that no iudg-
ment should be pronounced against
Epps because he was tried upon an
indictment which does not allege facts
sufficient to amount to a criminal
offense. The motion was not made
In the lower court, counsel says, but
authorities are cited to sustain him in
making it in Supreme Court for the
first time.
The King brief argues that under
1897 liquor laws the possession of any
quantity of tax paid alcoholic bever-
ages at any place is lawful; (2) the
possession of any quantity of non-tax
paid liquor, however small, is I'M
lawful, and 60 the essentials of the
crime of unlawful possession must be
both alleged and proved by the State,
which allegations are Cd that the al
ceholic beverages were not tax paid,
and CD that the defendant was in
actual or constructive possession of
them, and 90 the possession of alco-
holic beverages in a container which
does not bear either federal or a
county ABC stamp shall constitute
prima facie evidence that the possess
sion is unlawful
1t is contained that the indictment
on which Epps was tried does not af-
firmately allege any of these essen
tial facts, but is nothing but the old

the possession of any quantity of Ii

ONCE UPON FEB. 4TH.


A committee of scholars is at work
revising the King James version of
the Bible in the light of modern scho-
larship. They can look forward to
royalties and praise from their fellow
men, whereas in an earlier day they
might have had rope or fire to fear.
John Rogers, also known as Thomas
Matthew, the Protestant minister who
brought out the first complete and
annotated Bible in English, was burn
ed at stake at Smithfield England, as
a hereto, 3S3 years ago today, when
he was IS years old.
Rogers took up where his martyred
friend Tyndale left off in making the
Bible available to all of the people
instead of just to clergymen. His re-
fusal to wear the vestments prescribed
by ecclesiastical law was the excuse
for making him the first protestant
martyr of Bloody Mary's" reign. His
friend John Bradford wrote that
Rogers ''broke the ice valiantly."
What angered orthodox eccleeiasti-
cal authorities most, and made them
ready to use any excuse to wreak
their ire on Rogers, was that he sue
cessfully schemed to obtain the kings
license for this Bibles publication :.
"a license that the same may be sold
and ready of every person, without
danger of any act, proclamation or or
dinance, heretofore granted to the
contrary" For the common attitude
of clergymen of the time was that the
Bible should remain inaccessible to
the common people.
