ADDRESS PREPARED BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN (Continued from Page Six) “ ‘Can any Christian remain indif erent? Science needs religion to di¬ rect energies and to inspire with lofty purpose those who employ the force's that are unloosed by science. Evolu¬ tion is at war with religion because religion is supernatural; it is, there¬ fore, the relentless foe of Christiani¬ ty, which is a revealed religion.’ “Let us, then hear the conclusion 4 of the whole matter. Science is a magnificent material force, but it is not a teacher of morals. It can per¬ fect machinery, but it adds no moral restraints to protect society from the misuse of the machine, It can build gigantic intellectual ships, hut it constructs no moral rudders for the control of storm-tossed human vessels. It not only fails to supply the spiritual element needed, but some of its unproven hypothesis rob the ship of its compass and thus en¬ danger its cargo. Science Evil “In war, science has proven itself an evil genius; it has made war more terrible than it ever was before. Man used to be content to slaughter his fellow men on a single plain—the erath’s surface. Science has taught * him to go down into the wat.ei and shoot up from below, and to ga up into the clouds and shoot down from above, thus making the battlefield three times as blody as it was before; but science does not teach brotherly love. Science has made war so hellish that civilization was about to com mit suicide; and now we are told that newly discovered instruments of destruction will make the cruelties of the late war seem trivial in compari son with the cruelties of wars that may come in the future. If civiliza- [ tion is to be saved from the wreckage ; threatened by intelligence not conse crated by love, it must be saved by the moral code of the meek and low ly Nazarene. His teachings, and His teachings alone, can solve the prob lems that vex the heart and perplex 4 the world. : “The world needs a savior more than it ever did before, and there is only one ‘name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.’ It is this name that evolu tion degrades, for, carried to its logi eat conclusion, it robs Christ of the OFFICIAL Fort of Valley the ORGAN THE KIWANIS KALL and Get Full Value Kiwanis Club Published Weekly Thursday by the Kiwanis Club of Fort Valley, for Your Money on Ga.

'It is for the jury to whether this attack upon the tian religion shall be permitted in the public schools of Tennessee by teachers employed by the state and paid out of the public treasury. This case is no longer local; the defendant ceases to play an important part. The case has assumed the proportions °f a battle royal between unbelief that attempts to speak through so-called science and the defenders of the Christian faith, speaking through the legislators of Tennessee. It is again a choice between God and Baal; it is also a renewal of the issue in Pi late’s court. In that historic the greatest in history—force, im personated by Pilate, occupied the throne. Behind it was the Roman ernment, mistress of the world, and behind the Roman government were the legions of Rome. Before Pilate stood Christ, the apostle of love, Force triumphed; they nailed Him'to tfie tree and those who stood around mocked and jeered and said lie is dead.' But from that day the power of Caesar waned and the power of Christ increased. In a few centuries the Roman government was gone and its legions forgotten; while the cru cified and risen Lord has become the greatest fact in history and the ing figure of all time. Force Meets Love. Again force and love meet face to face, and the question, ‘what shall I do with Jesus?’ must be answered. A bloody brutal demands, as the rabble did 1,900 years ago, that He be crucified. That can not be the answer of this jury rep resenting a Christian state and sworn to uphold the laws of Tennessee. y our answer will be heard through out the world; it is eagerly awaited by a praying multitude. If the law is nullified, there will be rejoicing wher¬ ever God is repudiated, the Saviour TIIE LEADER-TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY, GA., THURSDAY, AUGUST 27, 1925.

Tbe Awierican Rar Association is trying to eliminate some of the ob ' J ec tionable methods of a conscience¬ less type of attorneys that have brought discredit on the courts, and 1 to impress them their duty on sworn to the public as well as to their cli ents, and this will eventually bring about some reforms in court proce dure that will expedite justice. The main reason, however, for the small number of murders in England as compared with the vast number in this country is the difference in at titude as to human life. In the United States we regard life as cheap and encourage crime by turning murder ers loose, while in England they dis courage murder by prompt trials and executions. And no one but the American people themselves can change this deplorable condition.— Cedartown Standard. stopping place. Possessed with an ideal climate, mild throughout the winter months, Georgia should be the mecca lor these people. i In discussing the prediction of the astronomer priest, the Philadelphia , Recaord comments as follows: 1 “First frost and winter predictions are now due and early reports are straggling in. But a new kind of pre I diction comes from Paris. The astron omer priest, Father Gabriel, says we are in for a very hard winter, which the old-timer will have to go back 186 and 372 years to match. This prediction is made with so much elab j oration and scholarly support that Prof. Guallaume Bigourdian, director the Paris Observatory, has taken it before the Academy of Sciences for reading and discussion. “Father Gabriel has been studying the lunar solar cycle, which is a pe riod of 744 years, and he says that j n eac h fourth months of this period, or every 186 years, the weather gets out of hand entirely.

They were prosecuted among the historians and poets, and astronomers are said to have been aware of such a recurrence of cold spells at long intervals without hav ing taken the trouble to find out. “So, there seems to be nothing to do but hope for the best and quietly prepare for the worst—in other words, start early and look up the overcoat and coal bin situation.” For the past several years the win ters in the south have been delight ful.
