A,BIBLE THOUGHT
>4—FOR TODAY—
Bibio Thouffl.ts memorized, win prove e
priceless heritage in after years
THE FEAST OF HARMONY—
A Better is a dry morsel, and quietness
I therewith. - than a house full of sur
fs; rilices with strife. —Proverbs 17 :1.
| CAN V MAN BE FORCED TO
LEAVE PRISON?
The case of (‘.erald Chapman, or at
least that phase of his ease dealing
with sne commutation of his sentence
by President Coolidge and his refusal
to accept freedom, is unusual in Am
. eriean criminal history. It gives rise
to the question of whether the gov
ernment can compel a man to accept,
his freedom.
Os course the President had an ul
terior motive in giving Chapman liits
frecdont, for lie wanted to remove the
possible chance of Chapman escaping
the death sentence by a plea of being
a federal prisoner. Chapman was
serving a sentence ’ in the Atlanta
prison when he is alleged to have es
caped ami killed a policeman. For
the latter deed lie was sentenced To
die. His counsel contended that the
last sentenee could not become effect
i- ive until Chapman had served his for
mer sentence, and on that he has mere
than 20 years yet to serve.
- To meet this move the officials of
Connecticut, where Chapman was
found guilty of murder, asked the
a President to free Chapman and the
President dal so. When the commu
tation papers were served on him
Chapman refused to accept them. He
is a federal prisoner, lie says, and if
he can he is going to remain one. -
i Not ill recent years at least, has
the nation seen such a case. Tile
President, commutes the sentence of a
loan so tin* man can be electrocuted
by a State. Chapman contends that
the government cannot compel him to
accept bis freedom but we believe lie
is mistaken. 'When Chapman returns
to Atlanta, for instance, the warden
can tell hint he is free, and if Con
ned cut will send officers to the pris
on they can put. him under arrest
again and take him back to Connec
ticut.
It is unusual to sec a prisoner fight
ing commutation of a 25-year sentence
hut at Hie same time it id very unusual
to find a prisoner facing the electric
cfhair when he receives freedom. The
average man would follow the same
proceedure Chapman is following. He
Ss hanging to the last straw, which is
nothing but natural.
fJTTLE MORE THAN A SQUAB
BLE.
fe : The Mitchell court martial lias de
veloped into little more than a squab
ble between the air officer, represent -
ted by counsel, nd generals sitting on
,-jfhe court. Colonel Mitchell can say
teething tmy but his counsel is on
;ejhan<t to do the talking and he is not
.- Jnsing any opportunity to tell the
IStotirt what he thinkssflf them.
Bp.'“Otiss” words have been/flowing so
ptttwely that the president of the coprt,
lias found it necessary to caution botli
aides Witnesses are entitled to rer-
Gifeiin rights, he hns pointed out. and
gpiutae rights Will be upheld. While
lone witness for the defense was being
i||tfcamincd a member of the court was
SjMUl'd to whisper in protest against
It ho 'method employed by defense couu-
general using an oath to
■nr
make his position more clear. That
started a row and nothin* has been
accomplished since.
It doen seem, that ruen with the
; rank of genera! should know how to
, conduct themselves during the process
!of a trial. If they jlon’t like the way
things are being done they should
say so in the open. Whispers are in
bad taste at all times and especially
when accompanied with oaths.
Coftmel Mitchell may have violated
army regulations with his charges of
“inefficiency” but the way the court
martial ha* been conducted leaves the
public with the impression that he
was right. It would be difficult to
imagine anything less systematically
or efficiently conducted than has
been this court martial.
There will be no extension of the
school term in North Carolina at
the present. Superintendent of Pub
lic Instruction A. T. Allen makes the
statement that, at the earliest, the ex
tended term could uot be put into ef
fect before 1929 or 1930. and although
he favors the eight months term
against the present six months term
he sees no chance of the change for
some years to come. It is known that
proponents of the longer term were
ready for a determined tight in the
1927 legislature, but it is practically
certain now that nothing can be done
for at least four years. The legisla
ture could only rail for a constitu
tional amendment vote and that could
not come before the 192 S election.
It would take another year at least
to change the system.
THINKS UNIFICATION
VOTE WAS VICTORY
Bishop Hughes Sees Two Branches of
Method ism Brought a Step Closer.
Chicago, Dec. I.—Though the Meth
odist Episcopal Church. South, failed
to vote its required majority of three
fofcrths for union with the northern
branch ,of the church. Bishop Edwin
Holt Hughes, of the Chicago area of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, re
gards the vote "as a great victory."
The vote indicates the ddsire of the
northern church to meet any future
proposition in a generous and wel
coming spirit, he says. Bishop Hughes
is a member of the joint commission.
Bishop William F. McDowell, for
merly of Chicago, now of Washington,
D. C,. being chairman of the commis
sion of the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
‘‘The voting in the conferences of
tin* two churches is practically com
plete," says Bishop Hughes in a
statement today. **Unification car
ries overwhelmingly in the Methodist
Episcopal Church, the favoring vote
being almost 9.1 per cent. In the
Methodist Episcopal Church. South,
the required constitutional majority is
three-fourth*. The vote fallls far
short of Pais.
‘‘Personally. 1 regard this as a vic
tory inasmuch as this is the first time
since the separation in 1844 that the
two churches have reached the stage
of voting.
“Os course, it would-be premature
for tin* .Methodist Episcopal ChurCi
to push matters at this juncture, but
our tremendous vote indicates plainly
that we arc ready to mist fully our
southern brethren and to meet any
future proportions in a generous and
welcoming spirit.”
The Associated Press at Nashville,
Tonn.. has announced that the Col
lege of bishops willl give Kie official
vote of the Methodist Church. South,

Siloam. I)ec. 2.—On the south
side of the Pinnacle at the top of

a crevice leading God only know*

this cavity, the unearthly cries that

However, a bunch of high school
seniors vow to explore the inner

Golden Rule Sunday.
N- C. Christian. Advocate.
The first Sunday in December will
be Golden Rule Sunday. Fifty na
tions will on that day observe Inter
national Golden Rule Sunday. Gov
ernor of various state, among them
our own Governor McLean, have is
sued proclamations falling upon the
people to observe GoFden Rule Sun
day ami Mr. J. B. Ivey of Charlotte,
state chairman of the Golden Rule
committee, is anxious that the day
shall he fittingly aud universally ob
served.
Why observe luteri utional Golden
Rule Sunday’.'
Thi* question has been answered
by the national committee in the
following faehiou :
“For the sake of our own souls.
We eanot profess to believe in the
Golden Rule and stand idly by while
innocent children die. Luxurious liv
ing ami self-indulgence may be as in
jurious to the prosjferous as under
nourishment and starvation are to
tin* less fortunate.
For the sake of our own children.
It. will he a most wholesome thing to
have the average American child (or
adult) seated for one meal during
the year at a table where the ac
customed luxuries or comforts are
lacking, helping us to realize that
most people in this world never know
what it is to partake of the luxuries
which we expect every day a* a mat
ter of course.
For the sake of our own country.
Never in the history of the’ world
has any people Is on entrusted with
such colossal wealth of material re
sources and moral power as the pres
ent generation in America. Freely we
have received, freely we must snare,
or lose the best of that which we
hav> i received.
For the sake of the orphan in the
Near East. While endeavoring to
save oumelves, our children and our
nation spiritually, wo must also save
the children in the Near East physi
cally. else all of our religion* creeds
and golden rule* are hollow mocsery.
Without our aid they die.
Tin* National Goldeu Rule commit
tee has been formed to assist Near
East Relief in providing fords for
flic orphans of the Near East until
they can be brought to self-support-
More than a million lives have
been saved, a disproportionately
large number of whom are children
who are not only without fathers
and moth****. - but who. having been
driven from their home* in Asia
Minor, are now refugees without a
country or government upon which
they have any legal claim. They hre
the victims of the late World War,
dependent upon the Goldeu Rule
ministry of those who were not called
upon to pay so great a price irt the
late world conflict.’’

SYNOPSIS
Connemara Moore neat to announce
ter engagement by midnight or be
disinherited by Aunt Celimena. If her
tair eras bobbed, Bingham Carrington
was her choice; otherwise, Saltonstall
Adams. Connie has disappeared,
leaving behind a bunch of her tresses,
in tissue paper. Bissg accepts this as
evidence that he is the accepted one.
Mramahile, the girl, garbed at a nun,
has driven to the shore of the Sound
with young David Lacy and is about
to board a ferry for Long Island.
CHAPTER IV—Continued
"What makes you think ajl her
'hair’s been cut off?” Salt asked
angrily.
Poppy broke into the discussion
6c tore the Southerner could answer.
“She told me she had planned one
last puzzle,” she announced, ' "and
that she'd come in and untangle it
as soon as you’d given up.”
They all looked expectantly at
the doors again, but this time
nothing happened except the sudden
and solemn booming of the grand
father clock in the hall, sounding the
first stroke of twelve. And though
no one attempted to put it into
words, they were all vaguely aware
at the same instant of a queer little
sense of finality of the definite end
ing of something, and the beginning
of something else, nobody knew
just what, as the old clock contin
ued to strike, slowly and matter-of
factly.
Elderly, withered little Mr.
Brewster, Miss Celimcna’s lawyer,
broke the silence the clock left.
"The announcement had to be
made before twelve to be binding,”
he said in his thin, throaty voice.
“Tell him," she gasped faintly,
“it was a masquerade—nun’s dress.’
“Two announcements have been
made, but both cannot, of course,
hold. Miss Connemara had better
stop the play now and come for
ward to tell us which one of them
is true. Otherwise—” He held
out his hands, and shook a disap
proving gray head.
“Oh. she'll be here in a moment,”
Poppy assured him confidently.
“And she’s safe, either way. because
one of the announcements has to bq
legal, hasn't'it, Mr. Brewsfer? Let’s
just go on dancing. She’ll get tired
of teasing us if she sees we’re not
Waiting for her.”
So the orchestra was commanded
to resume and everyone began to
dance again, though in rather a
half-hearted and desultory manner,
with one eye on the door and the
•titer uninterestedly cm his' partner.
An hour passed that ■ was longer
than all the rest of the evening be
fore it pot together, and still no
Connemara with the promised un
tangling. At the end of that time
Miss Celimena, her face very pale,
beckoned both Saltonstall and Bing
inf> a corner of the ballroom.
“Something’s happened to her,”
she said, with a little catch in her
voice. “She'd never carry a joke
as far as this. Won’t you—won’t
you both go out and look for her?
Poppy and some of the girls and I
will search the house.”
Very soberly, their'' former hostil
ity forgotten, the two went out, and
Miss Celimena, her hand in Poppy's
Strong young arm, walked heavily
toward the hall and the staircase at
the end.
The grandfather clock which had
already ticked off so much anxiety
just preparing, to sound two when
an anxious group of unsuccessful
searchers met at the open front
door, and mutely asked and an
swered the question that was in
•very eye, but which nobody w»nt
•4 to put into word*.
Too Embarrassed.
"Every room with a bath.'* says
the prespeetipi of a hew and huge
hotel just started here.
Whioli remind* us of the story of
n countryman unfamiliar with such
luxuries, who paused the uigbt at a
modern hotel.
"Well, djd you have a good
night's rest?" the clerk 'asked him
the next morning.
"No. 1 didn't,'’ was the reply, "The
“Perhaps,” suggested the wither*
ed little kyyyer croakily, since thers
seemed to be no other offers of ad*
vice as to the next step—“perhaps
we had better telephone the polks
at Greenwich.”
Miss Celimena found her voice al
that, and screamed: "Police! Whal
for?”
“Why—eh—it’s the customary
thing, Miss Celimena, when a per
son is missing. Nothing to be alarm
ed about—quite the contrary, I as
sure you.”
His eagerness to reassure. was
more alarming than openly ex
pressed doubt. But Miss Celimena’t
long years of repression stood her
in excellent stead now. She was
up against something frightening
and unpleasant, but after that first
terrified outcry, she had herself
wqjl in hand.
“The telephone is on that table
behind you,” she said quite calmly
“Will you call them, please, Mr.
Brewster?”
She stood at his shoulder quiet
and controlled while he talked ovei
the wire for several minutes. At
length he turned to her to ask,
“They want to know how she was
dressed when you last saw Her?"
Then, indeed, for a flash, a quiv
er passed across the set face. It
hurt Miss Celimena, even in u
midst of her fears for Connemara's
safety, to tell sin outsider that a
Moore had so completely forgotten
family tradition and dignity as to
disappear in the unfitting garb of •
Dominican Sister at a fancy dress
ball.
“Tell him,” she gasped faintly,
“it was a masquerade—nun’s dress.?
Brewster did so, describing th»
costume with painful conscientious
ness. They saw him listen intently,
while a look of dawning horror and
incredulity slowly spread over his
face. Then he said jerkily into the
mouthpiece, “Thank you—yes. I’ll
tell her,” and hung up the - receiver
“What is it?” Miss Celimena ask
ed. with feverish eagerness. “He
had some news; I saw it in youl
face.”
“A traffic officer held up a cat
about eleven in Greenwich sot
speeding, and let them go when hs
found there was a nun in it. on her
way, she told him, to an emergency
case,” the lawyer said slowly.
“My description and the officer’s
tallied exactly. Fortunately—o>
unfortunately. I'm not sure which
—he put one thin hand confusedly
to his head—“the man took Jhe li
cense number. There was no on«
in the car but the nuu and a well
dressed young man who was driv
ing.”
"C,o on,” Miss Celimena said
hoarsely. “Can’t they look up tht
number and find out whose car it
was?”
Brewster hesitated. “They—did,”
he said; then, brusquely: “The num
ber \yis that of a car reported stolen
yesterday morning from New Ha
ven.”
CHAPTER V
SfeJte,
By Ed Streater
The car stopped just outside ths
door of the engine room. A sick
ish, sweet smell of hot oil came bil
lowing forth into the close passage
way, driving before it the sharp,
salt smell of seaweed and the faitjA
odor of mimosa.
Sister Connemara stared straight
ahead at the back of a huge truck
which effectually corked out any
.breeze which might be travelling
across the Sound.
“Haven't we*’—insisted Lacy— j
“haven't we met somewhere be- !
fore?”
"My orders.” replied the demure |
creature beside him, “forbid the dis- i
cussion of frivolous and trivial top- |
ics with men.”
There was a warning toot from |
somewhere above. Engines clank- i
ed laboriously. After one or two !
preparatory shivers the boat moved-'
slowly forward, leaving the ferry l
slip lights to waste their rays over
a half acre of dancing foam.
Connemara released her grip on
the blanket. "At least we are out
of Connecticut.”
“Ot|t of Connecticut into New

Sakes alive! man, their medi
cine is the best out,
It’s good—don’t take a thou

They can cure cv'ry ailment,

That store's not just for the
rich, but also the poor
So what’s the use for sick
folks to set and holler?
Git the Pearl Drug Store Rem
