And Delilah said, How canst
thou say. I love thee, when thine
heart Is not with me? And she
pressed him daily, and urged him,
so that his soul was vexed unto
death. that he told her all his
heart, and said. There hath not
come a razor upon mine head; II
I be shaven. my strength will go
from me.
And when Delilah saw that he
had told her all his heart. she
called for the lords of the Philis-
tines. And she made him sleep
upon her knees: and she called
for man to shave off the locks of
his head; and his strength went
from him.
And the Philistines took him,
and put out his eyes, and bound
him with fetters of brass: and he
did grind in prison. Howbeit the
hair of his head began to grow
again. Then the lords of the
Philistines gathered together to
rejoice. And when their hearts
were merry, they said, Call for
Samson, that he may make us
sport. And they called for Sam
son out of the prison house; and
he made them sport; and they set
him between the pillars. And
Samson said to the lad that held
him by the hand. Suffer me that
I may feel the pillars whereupon
the house standeth, that I may
lean upon them.
Now the house was full of men
and women; and all the lords of
the Philistines were there; and
there were upon the roof about
three thousand men and women
And Samson called unto the Lord,
and said. o Lord God, strengthen
me, I pray thee. that I may be
avenged of the Philistines for my
two eyes.
And Samson took hold of the
two pillars upon which the house
stood. and he bowed himself with
all his might; and the house fell
upon the lords, and upon all the
people that were therein. So the
dead which he slew at his death
were more than they which he
slew in his life. Then his breth-
Iren and all the house of his father
came down, and took him. and
brought him up. and buried him
in the burying place of his father.

And the Philistines had domin-
ion over Israel. And Sampson
went and caught three hundred
foxes. and took firebrands. and
turned tail to tail. and put a fire.
brand in the midst between two
tails. And when he had set the
brands on FIRE. he let them go into
the standing corn OF the Philis-
tines. and burnt up the shocks,
and also the standing corn, with
the vineyards and olives. Then
the Philistines said. Who hath
done this? And they answered
Sampson.
Then the Philistines went up
and spread themselves in Lehi
And Sampson came unto Lehi:
and the Spirit of the Lord came
nightly upon him, and he found
a new jawbone of an ass. and put
forth his hand, and took it. and
slew a thousand men Herewith.
And it came to pass afterWard
that he loved a woman in Sorek
whose name was Delilah. And
the lords of the Philistines came
and said to her, Entice him, and
see wherein his great strength
lieth, and by what means we may
prevail against him. that We may
bind him to aff1ict him; and we
will give thee every one of us
eleven hundred pieces Of silver.
Delilah said to Sampson, Tell
me, I pray thee, wherein thy great
strength lieth, and wherewith
thou mightest be bound to aff1ict
thee. And Samson said, If they
bind me with seven green withs
that were never dried. then shall
I be weak. as another man. Then
the lords of the Philistines
brought up to her seven green
withs which had not been dried,
and she bound him.
And she said, The Philistines be
upon thee, Samson. And he brake
the withs, so his strength was not
known. And Delilah said unto
Samson, thou has told me lies;
now tell me, I pray thee. where
with thou mightest be bound. And
he said, II they bind me fast with
new ropes, then shall be weak,
and be as another man. Delilah
therefore took new ropes, and
bound him. And he brake them
off his arms like thread.

Collins Issues
Police Statement
Continued from Page u

Continued from Page ID
! impression one report shows where
these gentlemen worked, and the
ether report shows Patrolman
Everett worked, but one of our To-
cal papers states that | accused
Officers Wright and Rahm of be-
ing drunk just because | said
bring Wright and Rahm up.
Gentlemen, | have accused no
one. | have been told these rec
ords will show they do not COR
respond.
| have criticized the Police de-
partment from time to time. Is
there anything wrong with that? :?
If the Police Department can not
stand scrutiny isn't it time that it
is brought to our attention? The
Police Department is part of
our City Government. The cost
of this department has increased
approximately $10,000.00 more for
a years maintenance than what it
was in 1912, and is considered a
very vital part of our city govern
ment. | feel that under our Amer
lean way of life we are still free
to criticize in a constructive way
city, state, or national affairs, so
long as we are part Of that gov
ernment and pay our portion to
maintain it. If a man goes to
both Of our local papers with some
advertising and finds one news
paper may have higher rate for
advertising than the other news
paper is he wrong in asking why?
He is the one who pays for it,
isn't he? Why is it wrong there
fore to criticize our Police Depart
ment? Why is every criticism
an accusation? | firm
ly believe that constructive criti-
cism is good for department or
an individual. Right here | might
add, | am not interested in per-
sonal grudges between any indi-
in town. am interested
only in the efficient operation of
all City Departments.
81 believe the easiest way to
clear up this whole affair is to
compare both sets of records.
Mr.. Mayor, if am not
the Chief of Police to bring to
the Council Chamber for the Coun-
cilmen's inspection both sets of
records. Due to the fact the
people of our city pay for the cost
of these records, | believe it is
legal for the City Council and cur
Mayor to check such records.
