let them go. They were warned, how
ever, that they must not preach, men
ton Jesus name or perform miracles
any more.
1t was quite useless for the priests
or anyone else to forbid the disciples,
especially Peter, to preach. Peter had
had his moment of weakness, when
he denied Jesus. Now he was strong
and determined to do what he thought
was right. And he knew it was his
duty to preach the gospel as long as
he lived. This simple, uneducated
fisherman was to become one of the
truly great men of the earth, remem
bered and honored centuries after
many richer and better schooled had
been eitrely forgotten.
He had no money but truly he had
that which was more precious than
riches-he could heal the sick and
bring a message of good cheer to
those who were sad and discouraged
and the latter we also can do, to
show we are trying to follow the Lord
he WOrshipped.

Longest speech of the session yester

? In the bill prohibiting State institu-
lions from engaging in mercantile
business in competition with tax-pay-

- There has been for years, at both
, Chapel Hill and Raleigh the practice
of the colleges operating laundries
book stores, cafeterias, etc. to which
the public were admitted. Profits
from these operations went to reduce
the necessary appropriations for the
conduct of the schools. Almost every
legislature has had something to saw
about it, but the situation has NOT
been improved. The bill which passed
the Senate yesterday and will in all
likelihood pass the House Monday
night, will stop most of these business
dealings with the public on part of the
college.

The one-time legislator from Fit

By NEWMAN CAMPBELL

We will start todays lesson by tell
ing the story of Jesus during His life
on earth with His disciples. He was
walking with them among the corn.
The disciples were hungry and ate of
the grains of corn. But when the
Pharisees saw this they complained
to Jesus that it was unlawful to pluck
and eat grain on the Sabbath. You
remember how very strict the Jewish
law was against doing anything I'M
necessary on the Holy Day.
But Jesus was not to be caught with
such accusations. He reminded them
of their church history, which told
of David having eaten the shewbread
in the temple on the Sabbath. This
was the unleavened bread which the
priests placed before Jehovah in the
sanctuary of the temple. David, He
told them, was not blamed for doing
this, neither were the priests who did
the same thing.
But 1 say unto you," He said, that
in this place is One greater than the
temple"-meaning God. This is told
in the last reference given for the
weeks reading, Matthew 1918.
The rest of the lesson tells of Peter
and John preaching together to con-
vert people to the religion of Jesus
The two men went to the gate called
Beautiful of the temple to pray at the
accustomed time. Every day at this
time man was brought to the gate
+, to beg. He always had been lame, and
what he received was all he had to
live upon. '.E
He held out his hand to Peter and
John, but Pet looked at him, saw
his lameness / said to him: "Silver
and gold have 1 none; but such as
have give I thee"
What he had to give was worth
much more than silver and gold, for
Peter took the man by his right hand
and helped him to his feet, and he
found that he could walk. He follow
ed Peter and John into the temple,
leaping and praising God.
All the people who had seen the
miracle crowded about F1eter and ex-
claimed over it. He told them that it
was faith in Jesus that had allowed
him to cure the man.
But the captain of the temple and
the priest did not like this at all. They
kept Peter and John until the next
day and asked them number of
questions. Peter told them it was
power from the Christ whom they had
crucifled that permitted their acts.
and the priests could not find any
good reason to longer detain them so

Foreclosure
Spite Bill
Knocked Out
In the Sir Walter Hotel.
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
BY G.. LYNN NISBET.

Raleigh, Feb. 10.-One bill to legal
ize political spite was killed in Sena-
tor Jack Joyners judiciary commit
tee when an unfavorable report was
returned on the bill to abolish tax
collector and let the sheriff of Avery
county collect the taxes. The bill, Of
fered by Republican Pittman, of
Avery, had an innocent title. Demo
cratic State Chairman Gregg Cherry
said the Avery Democratic chairman
wanted it passed. 1t went through the
House quickly. Then it's real meaning
was discovered. The effect would have
been to permit sale for taxes of the
homes of Avery citizens without any
notice other than one posting of
notice at the court house door. No
direct mail notice was required and
no advertisement in a newspaper.
The local background was that the
Avery county newspaper is Republi-
can and the Democratic county chair
man did not want the publisher to
get the money for advertising taxes.
The far-reaching effect as a precedent
was to permit any legislator who was
at outs with his local newspaper to
deny the citizens of his county ade-
quate notice of the foreclosure of tax
liens on their property.
When the real import of the pure
~ local. act became known, there was
sufficient pressure brought upon the
Senate committee to get an unfavor-
able report. That means death for the
bill.
The incident serves to emphasize
the danger inherent in the idea of
Legislative courtesy" which calls for
the unquestioned passage of every
purely local bill offered. Many of the
local bills are far from local in their
influence. This week two or three
bills announced as purely LEGAL have
been held over from one day to an
other to give members a chance to
study them.

Longs Bills
On Health
Are Drastic
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Feb. 1O.-Wlthout ques-
tioning sincerity of the author or
benefits to humanity which would
follow enforcement, many observers
and members of the legislature are
wondering if the health" measures
introduced by Senator DR.. 7. w. M.
Long of Halifax are not made very
dubious of passage by reason of their
very sweeping and dramatic provi-
sions.
For instance, nobody disputes that
it would be a fine thing if every child
against diphtheria, but many are
wondering if the assembly will pass
any law requiring every child be-
tween the age of six and II months
to be immunized ''by prophylactic
agent meeting United States public
health Standards" and making fail
ure of parents to have this immuni-
cation accomplished a misdemeanor
punishable by $3.50 fine or thirty
days or both"
They are also wondering if the leg
islators really dare pass bill requir-
ing every prospective mother in
North Carolina to have blood test
examination under pain of being
guilty of a misdemeanor.
This latter law requires G) every
woman who becomes pregnant to
have blood sample submitted to labor
atory approved by the State Board of
Health, for performance of Wasser-
man or other test approved for syph-
Ills; CD physician, upon request of
woman, to submit such sample to
laboratory, and midwives to refer wo-
man to physician; CD those unable
to pay laboratory fees to go to local

He frankly distrusts anything an5
everything which even remotely
smacks of slot support and is doubly
on his guard by reason of the fact
that Attorney General Harry McMul-
Ian hasn't given any written opinion
on the matter. He has learned that
the section as submitted in the COM

the A G., is not, in fact, written in
