BOB JONES COMMENTS ON
HERE AND HEREAFTER
The writer has just returned
to Bob Jones College at Cleve¬
land, Tennessee, from a
day speaking engagement in
beautiful city of Asheville,
One day, while eating lunch
the dining room of the
attractive, historic Battery Park
Hotel where it was our delight¬
ful privilege to be a guest,
got an Idea which we wish
pass on to our readers.
Battery Park will be free from
the crazy, noisy, streamline at¬
mosphere of the present
there are plenty of places
you can find that if want it.
on the other hand, you want
atmosphere of home, of
of thoughtfulness, of good
and common sense, you are
guest we are looking
whom we will greatly appre¬
ciate” This paragraph we read
on the luncheon menu. There
an old Battery Park Hotel
years ago as a young man
was our privilege to stay fo r a
number of days. It was
elegant, cultured, and
able—typical of the good
days and the good,
American refinement. Here
the new Battery Park
which is up-to-date,
magnificent, luxerious, but
preserving the quiet,
refinement of the days that
been. There are still millions
people in America who have
lost their taste, and people
still appreciate refinement
decency. It is possible for
people to keep abreast of
times and for business men
keep step with the material pro¬
gress of our modern world
still be true to the best
of the past. Progress does
necessarily mean the
away of everything. It means
retaining of the best and
the best to the best.
-O-
The fundamentals of our
tian faith have never
and never will change,
these fundamentals are
to the salvation of men. But
method of approach to the
tian task may change from
to time. The Lord Jesus
who died on the cross for
sin s o f men, rode into a city
a donkey. We travel in this
across continents in
air-conditioned Pullman
and sleep at night in
beds in airships that fly
the clouds, and we cross
ocean in palatial ships and
all the comforts of a modern
tel. But real ministers of
Gospel who are blessing
world are the ones who still
to the teachings of Jesus
and the blessed message of
wonderful Gospel. The
Park Hotel entertains its
more luxuriously than it
possible to entertain guests
the writer was there in the
building years ago. But the
tery Park is still a hotel—a
modem, luxurious hotel—but
still holds on to the
refinement that made the
of the old days love the old
tel. The next time you
visit Asheville you might stop
the Battery Park Hotel and
this lovely, up-to-date hotel

THOSE BOSOM BASS
The fishermen were gathered
at their lodge going over remin¬
iscences of a bad day’s fishing.
“I fished the lower branch all
day and all I got were six bos¬
om bass,” one spoke up.
“ ‘Bosom bass’?” an interested
fisherman asked. “What are they?
“Oh, they’re the small bass

your shirt when the game warden
passes by!”
Interesting Fish Physiology
The swimbladder of a fish is
one of the most interesting or¬
gans, and perhaps performs a
greater variety of functions than
any other. It serves as an organ
of respiration in some fishes
which draw upon the supply of
oxygen content without being
asphyxiated. Furthermore, if
there is an excess of carbon di¬
oxide, the swimbladder causes
the fish automatically to rise to
higher levels of lower carbon df-
oxide content—thus serving as a
sort of safety valve. In some
species of fishes the swimbladder
also appears to serve as an ad¬
ditional hearing aid.
By rapid contraction of a mus¬
cle in close contact with the air
bladder which acts as a resonator
some fishes are capable of pro¬
ducing a drumming sound, and
from this faculty has arisen the
now have to get a law passed
requiring men to get a shave
each morning and a hair cut

WKMOW
SUN
*BYJ.C. WILSON
Newspaper Features, lac.
Governor Talmadge has come
to the last refuge of the South¬
ern demagogue, which is to
raise a hue and cry on the
Negro^question.
There was a time when this
would work. Many unworthy and
unfit politicians have used it in
various States of the South, to
ride into office. But that time is
gone, long ago.
Today the politician who raises
the “nigger” cry will evoke eith¬
er laoghter or indignant disgust.
Governor Talmadge is getting
both these reactions, and getting
them abundantly. For THERE IS
NO NEGRO PROBLEM, EX¬
CEPT AS TO HOW WE SHALL
IMPROVE HIS CONDITION AND
MAKE HIM A BETTER CITI¬
ZEN.
As the Atlanta Journal points
out in a fine editorial: “There
is only one Negro problem be¬
tween the brave and the honest
of the two races. That is the
problem of mutual assistance in
a difficult and sometimes
world.”
Governor Talmadge is out
dominate the University System
of Georgia in the same way that
his late and unlamented crony,
Huey Long, dominated Louisana
State University. Huey named
the president and the faculty-
Huey’s president is now in
penitentiary.
As his first purge victim
a the University, Governor
madge picked Dr. Walter
Cocking, dean of education
Athens. He accused Dr.
of being in favor of
Negro students to the
ty System- Dr. Cocking isdig-
nantly denied it and Talmadge
failed uterly to prove it, and the
Board of Regents voted to em¬
a ploy his services another year.
Among those so voting
Colonel Sandy Beaver, of Gaines¬
ville; Clark Howell, editor and
publisher of the Atlanta Con¬
stitution; and Judge Lucien
Goodrich, of Griffin.
In a fury typical of
and Hitler, the Governor demand¬
ed «>the resignations of these
Georgians from the Board
Regents. Judge Goodrich
Major Howell resigned. The oth¬
ers have not, as this is
What will Governor
do if they refuse to resign??
Will he place the Board of Re¬
gents under martial law
throw the offending Regents
by force?
If these fine Georgians
convinced that Dr. Cocking
ored admitting Negroes to
University System, would
have voted to retain him?
Georgians are outstanding. Each
and everyone of them is just as
good as the Governor, in all re¬
spects and particulars. To say
that they would tolerate for one
moment a University faculty
member who was tainted with
race equality notions, is absurd
and preposterous. It is an insult
to the public intelligence of our
State.
The question naturally arises:
Why does Governor Talmadge
tear into the University System?
Why doesn’t he let the Board of
Regents run it, while he attends
to his job of parceling out the
State’s revenue? One answer is
that Talmadge is never happy
without a fight. His dictorial
mania which shocked the State
in his first administration has a-
bated none at all- On the con¬
trary, it has increased.
And there is another phase,
which was pointed out by the
Montgomery Advertiser in an
editorial on Governor Talmadge,
which said: “One sure earmark
of the demagogue is an itch to
meddle with institutions of high¬
er learning, to arouse ignora¬
muses against professors.” The
Advertiser editorial took Tal¬
madge apart at the joints, and
wound up with this ringing
statement: “Let her sister south¬
ern states weep for Georgia;”

* Mold Inhibitor Aid to Housewife
QCIENCE has again come to the
aid of the housewife—this time
with a development that effectively
retards mold in bread and other
baked goods, cheese and dairy prod¬
ucts It is known as a mold Inhibi¬
tor, developed by E. 1. du Pont de
Nemours & Company
Preliminary studies of the new
substance offered such promise that
the Du Pont Food Research Labora¬
tory was established. Shown above
is a du Pont chemist baking a cake
with the aid of elaborate scientific
equipment. It is part of his duties
in the new laboratory where science
probes the mysteries of mold, fungi
and other influences that affect
foodstuffs.
Already achieved is a new in¬
gredient which retards mold for as
long as bread'femains fresh.
In addition to overcoming mold
difficulties In bread, cakes, pies, and
many other baked goods, this mold
retardant has been found effective
n various types of soft curd cheese,
