JBIBLE THOUGHTS FOR TH;_ DAY
GOD IS FAITHFUL-—"“The Lord
gave them rest, . . There failed not
aught of any good thing which the
Lord had spoken unto the house of
Israel.,” Jos. 21:44, 45.
The county of Crisp shows a gain
of a quarter million dollars in tax
able property in the returns this year
over last year. That is a gain which
points to prosperity-—at least sound
business gains over the past. Mzmy?
things point to a growing cummunlty{
and section, this being one of the
most telling,
Her admirers in this country will
not be pleased to learn that Mary
Pickford is looking for an apartment
in Paris where she may settle doWn
and spend her old age in quiet and
peace. It isn't a good choice. Mary
ought to know she will have to help
the French pay their war debts if
she lives over there. And then she
ought to have at least consulted her
admirers in this country about it,
The census bureau (;nxnxe pretty
close to the cotton crop in the esti
mates last year—and the first of them
looked like downright effort to drive
the price of cotton to the lowest
depths. This year the estimate is
large again. It was so large yester
day that it caused a flurry in the cot
ton market. We again have to say
we do not believe so much cotton is
in sjght. but like the department says
about it, this is lh;y critical stage, lf‘
we pass a week or ten days now in !lu-‘
main cotton area with weather favor
able to fruiting and to maturing U""i
already fruited, we may look for u‘
large crop. But we have promise of
fifteen cents—may be. ‘
The Washington government does
not give any heed to the warning of
the Frmwhl'l‘i::or about the war debts,
That's t!g‘('uld-blumlml type of states
man M@*J\de Mellon is, but then the
lerms’?fif& allfah(l_\- fixed and the deal
is a cfimd chapter, they say in Presi
dent Coolidge's councils., We have a
guess that it' will be an open book-—
several times open—bhefore the debts
are all paid—and many hard things
will be said, and much bhitterness will
be displayed. France will forget lhat‘
great friendship her patriots of oth('r‘
centuries manifested in the m-(-urhm}
of American freedom——and Americans
will likely forget that great sacrifice
‘young America made in driving llw?
Germans out of France in the World
War. Cruel debts — how they c:\ni
break up friendships! |

/.:—_—_—_:.x_.._.__._ |
Let the'folks stick together and pro
vide for that power plant on I'lint
river this fall and there will be amaz.
ing strides in substantial building and
development all over Crigp county. It
will be a tax-free county and will then
develop steadily. No man of today
dreams of the undisclosed uses of
electric power that will be made in
the next ten years, twenty years, fif.
ty years—and none but trained engin.
eers can unfold how much advantage
there is in having a limitless store of
hydro-electric power at our disposal.
With our power source at our very
door, we can claim advantages for
industrial development far superior td
those of other sections. 7
STRIKING AT MEXICO
It is surprising to see the damaging
printed matter that American news.
papers are permitting to go through
their columns against the government
of Mexico since the Roman church
found Calles determined to do away
with the rule of the Vatican—since
the Mexican government set its task
for separation of church and state,

of driving Americans to a hatred of
the Mexican government? It certainly
looks like nothing else, Thig special
article ¢ven goes into the claims that
("alles is a man of low birth—reflects
in most unbecoming manner upon the

York who puts himself up as spokes

tion in Mexico, )
It is amazing that in this century
a Jurist can be found in a country as
highly civilized as the United States
who will champion the sending of in
struments of violence into a country
which is trying to settle its internal
difficulties by peaceful methods. Does
Judge Talley want to help in bring-
Ing about another massacre of Saint
Bartholomew's Night in Mexico? lls
it his desire to bring about another
religious war similar to those \\vhlch
bathed Europe in blood during the
Middle Ages? Has not the world al
ready suffered enough from such fra
tricidal frays? lls this what religion
means to Judge Talley and the hier
wehy for whom he speaks?
Does Judge Talley not know that if
the government of the United States
raised the arms embargo at this time
only one construction could be put
upon it by the civilized world? It
is significant that Judge Talley is
joined in the abuse which he pours
npon the present government of the
United States by a cretain Bishop
Kelly, who is now abusing in the
press the late President Wilson be
cause he refused to support that no
torious scoundrel, Victoriano Huerta,
the murderer of the lam nted Madero,
Mexico is taking up its publie debis
and paying the interest on them in
the present rule. It is dealing square
ly with other nations. It is estab
lishing school systems for its people
—schools that in the lower grades are
not allowed to be dominated by any
veligion. It is opening up public high
ways that the people may reach the
markets with their crops and produce.
It is establishing respect for the law
ind for human life and property, It
'y lending its influence through both
husiness and agricultural . banking
channels to a stabilized buginess in
Mexico. It is doing all this in spite
W the domination of the Roman
church and its determination to block
an oapen,. free government separate
ind apart from the church.
Hore in this country we have no
right to interfere. The Knights of
Columbus are beside themselves in
the effort to send a million dollars
into Mexico to fight the government
and to prolong the domination of the
Roman church over government and
all. We have a free country, the Max.-
ican officials point out, Mexico has
not such a thing., All it undorlakes‘
to do must be given approval at thu‘
hands of the priests —the pope in
Rome himself must approve any nmvv?
tor progress the government makt‘s‘
Before the priests in Mexico will per
mit it to be put into execution. No
move is ever permitted by the Roman
church in Mexico, so powerful is that
Theirarchy, unless it takes into account
i”“‘ further and the future actual rule
of Mexico by the Roman church,
i The Mexican government has a
right to expect a great deal of sym.
'pmhy and support from the American
people, for they want separation of
church and state. They understand
our advantages. They have a rich
nation and a people who waut to move
forward. They have a right to ex.
pect us to wish them well.

“WHAT A MOCKERY?”
We have been expecting a protest
againsgt the jail delivery of Abe Pow.
ers in Atlanta—it has come. But we
have to confess that we are surprised
to find it in an Atlanta paper—the
Congstitution,
That paper today comments as fol.
lows in a manner timely and to the
point:
“Abe Powers, the notorious confi
dence man who was the right bower
of Floyd Woodward, and as suave
and debonair a criminal as evgr
flashed across the paths of the under.
world, was bro;lghl to the I"ultcn tow.
er from the state farm just three
days ago.
“Although he had before escaped
from the prison farm while serving
the sentence imposed for his crime,
and had been recaptured by Donald
gon, he was made a “trusty” the very
minute he reached the Fulton tower.
“The keys were handy. Naturally
enough he took them, strolled uncon
cernedly across the threshold to free
dom, lighted a cigarette, and no
@oubt looked back at the grim walls
with the disdain that such a finished
crimifal must feel at carelessness

'PUBLIC HOSPITALS IN EVERY
COUNTY
Clarence Poe in Progrqssive Farmer:
There are three things to which
human beings in every community in
the present stage of civilization are
justly entitled. These three things
are:
1. Efficient and modern pubkc
schools (with compulsory attend
ance.)’
2. Good roads. .
8 Modern hospitals in which the
worthy poor may receive needed
medical and surgical attention, re
gardless of ability to pay.
Progressive commonwealth every
where now recognize the imperative
duty of maintaining good schools
‘within reach of every child, and of
making a good road of every much
traveled highway. Unfortunately—-
there is as yet no adquate realiza
tion of the duty to maintain enough
modern publiely supported hospitals
to insure a disease-stricken Jather
or mother, son or daughter, from a
poverty-stricken home, just as good
a chance in the fight for their life
and health as a father_or mother, son
or daughter, from a home of weaith.
That is one of the things which the
progressive movement in England
brought that nation to realize, and
America should now come speedily
to realize the same thing.
Only this morning a hard-working
farmer told us how a few years ago
he had saved up several hundred
dollars in a bank. But when his wife
became sick, he spent it for her re
covery. It took all he had. If he had
had nothing, she might not have re
covered at all. Right near him stood
a father who spent just as much
money to save a sick child, but it
was not 1 percent of his wealth,
There is the situation. Let a des
perate disease at the same time
strike a child in a propertyless
family, a child in a family where
small savings hdve been made, and
a child in a wealthy family. The
