Carelessness Again Taket Its Toll In the death of the two young man, 8.. Lee Wilkinson and Robert Coop er, Monday night on the road between Washington and Greenville when the Buick car in which they were riding ran into a negro house and demolish ed the house and the car. The greatest sympathy goes out to the parents and relatives of the young men. Nothing could be imagined that would cause a mother more grief than to bring a son home dead. Another sad feature connected with j the iragedy was, that all was caused by reckless driving by a man under the influence of liquor. Mr. Bryan vs. Monkey "Make Evolution Trial A 'Greatest Show on Earth' " finds itself all the way across one of our daily papers. Now, hat's a sight, but the question is yet to be answered as to whether or not i' should or should not be there.. We can't help but admire Mr. Bry an, for he is standing his ground in •pile of his strong opposition, right or wrong he is abiding by his con i V vie ions. If we remember the teaching ac taught throughou' our school train ing. "stick with 'em until the end and you'll win", and if the teaching has any weight, Mr. Uryan ought to win. Sinclair Lewis says he has dis graced America and that he is asham ed to tour in Europe. O* ngnt men say things to the same ef fect. In spite of it all William J. J Comparison of Crimes ' a A miew of the crimes of the day! as seen from the pane* of the press is alarming. Not only upon the fre quency ami hediousne.s of the crime, but our attitude toward -crime... It might be well illustrated by the recent horrible crime" c.omrijitted our own county which stirred the na tion "and around tniliions of people.- And it proved a feast for the news papers and agitators of the entire country. About this one crime mil-' lion* of words were written and spok •n. Certainly there is no justification of the deed even though the per petrators of the deed believed they w.re protecting society. , % We have crimes, if the reports of the\ press can be believed, that out strip the Needleman case. We find under a Greensboro headline u'ated June 8, the statement that a two mon'hs old baby girl was found on the ' pavilions of Thomas's swimming pool The same paper of the same date from Winston Salem stated that a one-week old baby girl was found ,on the door steps at the home of C. .S Richardson of Winston-Salem., The GrMnsboro Daily News in a May issue gave an account of an in fant found by the road side where it had been thrown while living, bu had died from rain and cold, and stat ed that as being the fourth case of its hfad reported in Guilford county this year up to that time. Wealth in It* Relation to the Church What kind of Tiew doe* the world New York and Rev. Elmer E. Pow ggt rf'Hlllim when auch leading #?!, pastor of the Baptist church of preacher* m B«t. John B. Straton, Ne* Rossell, N. J. engage in such pester «f Cthrur Baptist church, statement* to aach other aa haa re •' ipfc '• • ■ * A bunch of fine yourig men of Rocky Mo«nt saw window cards in viting them to Washington to a big dance. They fixed themselves up not overlooking the liquor, knowing that such was permissible on such an oc casion. Suffering some dglay on the way they too much of the liquor, as stated by young Rose, the owner of the car. Rose also stated that all had taken liquor except young Coop er, one of those who was killed. Yet - there are those who uphold bo h liquor and the dance even where here fc death. t remains unchanged. t However, th 6 ex-Secretaries of . Stale might find some strong opposi ) in the person of Mr. Br>*an. So r ihe further it goes the worse it gels, ; and the trouble about the whole thiiiK is none of us seem to know what It is - all about. i Evolution, no evolution, mo.ikey, no : monkey, neither of - these will have - much power in the determining o r ; where this generation is going. One minute we side with a certain man I who says that we came from monkeys, he next when we-look back at our past ac ion and compare them with those of the monkey, we come to the conclusions .must have come from man. Of oourse that is judging from actions alone and not from the bio logical standpoint. r 1 1 t ! These crimes are the product of i society and seem to bring fortjli noth-i * ing more than a blush. Yet when such brutal and horrible crimes aiel| appraised tor their horribleness they I outclass the Needleman case, the| EdgsCombe guard case. * When our government decays i' i . „ - - | J will Hot be because of the rare oc- ( cUrence here aiid there when a bunch"* of men foolishly form. en masse for j the purpose of carrying into effect what they generally but foolishly 1 think a principle of justice, thereby committing a crime themselves. I« Wjill more'likely be destroyed be cause so many crimes are being copjr mitted by society itself. The fashion of the dky is to wink and hide, and then go on in whut we 'ool ourselves in believing a re ' spectable way. This hits gone on nntil l I there is no one to condemn crime. Who can cast the first stone? Is-i not true that too many of us have » to walk away to hide our own faults? i ' , The little "no harm" things tha' i we do day by day fire causing far more damage to us than all the wars and revolu'ions that we have. i , The papers have columns and pages to give to a murder or a robbery, but enly an inch is to be given to the ca'st -1 . ing away of an innocent babe, the pro duct of immoral and rotten society. The public should demand more care and a purer society. - —- cer.tly been made ? Dr. Straton is pastor of Rockfel lcr's rich church and Powell tells him that his church should be ndfmed "Fakers' Paradise". To this statement Stra'.on replied that Powell's church should build an annex "/or a Ananias club with Powall as a character member. Money is rapidly corrupting the churches in America. It is buying the pulpits and placing the emphasis on the sermons "Big-Dog philosophy" seems to be overshadowing Christian theology. Of cournp only for a time because the load of sin disguised in the name of the Church will soon die of its own filth. A revival of religion and a religious revival, which is needed the more? : One consolation, the pedestrian's life might be in danger, he might have to ride the smoky train, but he does not , have to buy auto licenses. Last year the automobiles killed 19,0)0 people and injured some 450,- 000 more. .Judging from these figures there will be no more war for the auto is putting up too strong competition. pATARRH of head or throat ia usually V# benefited by the vapor* Of— VJCKS.
