There were six one man and five wo men. Wondering if this would in dicate that women smoke more than men, I concluded that they do—in public. It is an old thing with men to smoke anywhere, ev erywhere for til? pure joy of a good smoke.

TALK Ralph Lewis and I were having a street corner conversation a few days ago and he made this very philosophical statement: “You know I can learn a great deal more sometimes by listening at other people talk than I do by just listening at myself”. But some of us enjoy hearing ourselves more than any one else. THE BIBLE The Bible is supposedly the most read book in existence. We doubt this very much. In fact, when considered in the light of its importance to men and especially to the church, we doubt if there is a book that is treated with more indifference in our reading, and ■ its teachings more ignored in liv ing than the Bible. I heard two colored rnen arguing a few days ago. One mentioned that Adam had two sons, Cain and Abel. The other doubted it and appealed to me, asking if Adam and Eve did have two boys named Cain and Abel. I said yes, but he still seemed to doubt the statement. A country church proposed to elect some deacons to fill the places of ones who had died. A brother to a deacon was suggested as one of the three nominees. But the pas tor seemed to doubt the Scriptur alness of brothers being deacons or that it would be contrary to Baptist policy. Yet the church al ready had two brothers on the Board of Deacons, both .-nighty fine men. —T.B.D. DR. J. F. COLTRANE DENTIST Office Phone: 3921 Office Hours: 9-12:30 A. M. 1:30-5 P. M.
