"We have no use for the partizan spirit in which religion seeks to devour science or science religion.” Such was the statement made in reply to Prof. Harry Elmer Barnes by Dr. Edgar Sheffield Brightman in a current issue of Christian Herald. Professor Barnes recently declared before the American As sociation for the Advancement of Science that religion needs a new God, to be made in the image of 1 science. Dr. Brightman, head of the de ! partment of philosophy of the graduate school at Boston univer sity, discusses both science and re ligion in his article and states that "we need a just and philosophical spirit that recognizes the full right and place of each field.” Charging Barnes with sensation alism, Brightman continues: "If the public mind is to be freed from bondage to sensationalism, it will need many grains of salt to take with what it reads . , . "Enough has been written about the sins of religion partizans . . . . But the fault has not been all on the side of the religious. Some men of science, and some of their in terpreters to the general public, have shown a remarkable misun derstanding of religion.” Dr. Brightman concludes his ar 1 tide with a plea for tolerance by | the leaders in both fields of ' thought and urged that •partizan 1 ship be discarded for friendship. He , bases his plea on the contention | that neither field could be com plete without the aid of the other. Mr. Hoover called Rio the pret tiest srpt he had ever seen.

Six Bouts In Boxing Program On Here This Saturday Night - I Matchmaker Sides Has Several Good Prelims For Roberts Sizemore Fight. /. - i Matchmaker Arthur Sides has a real leather-pushing pro gram of entertainment booked for Shelby fight fans Saturday | night in the Thompson build ing. The main bout, as heretofore an nounced, will be between Terry Roberts, the muchly talked “Mc Adenvllle Man Mauler,” and Grady Sizemore, middleweight champ of South Carolina. In addition to the main bout, which is to go for 10 fast rounds, there will be four preliminaries and the semi-prelim inary. Blanton To Fight. The semi-prelim Jack Blanton. Cliffside slugger .who is popular here, will face K. O. Foster of Me -, Adenville. I The added attraction which will i perhaps create more local enthus ; iasm than any of the six bouts will be between two homes boys, who are Just “itching” to get at each 'other. They are Phate McSwain, of the Lily Mill, and Earle Williams, I of South Shelby. Needless to say. this bout alone will turn out that end of town. Another preliminary Is between “Kid” Alexander, of Belmont, and Logan Carr, of the Cleveland Cloth mill, while Baby Carr, of the cloth I mill, will face Stump Braswell, of ' McAdenville in the other prelim inary. Dad Prim Referee. Dad Prim, of baseball, wrestling, and boxing fame, will referee every ■ bout, and Dad, usually forces the performers to give the fans the ac | tion they go to see. ! “All the boys who go on the program are going to fight instead of stall, or they do not fight for me anymore,” Matchmaker Sides announces. j "I anticipate that many fight fans from adjoining towns will be here for the bouts and with that in mind,” Promoter Sides declar ed. “X am piecing tickets on sale here Tuesday so that hometown fans may get the choice of ;::r best i seats. The tickets will be sold at ' Casey's Place, the Cl .-.'-.ml «’rne ! store, and the South Shelby bar bershop.” ADVOCATl S PROVISION I FOR DESERTED WI-Y1 S Durham.—As, announced by him mere than a year ago, re: nmenda ! tions will be made by Judge James R. Patton, of Recorder’s court, to the Durham county representative in the general assembly that they introduce a bill in the state legis lature which will make some pro visions for the support ot deserted wives. Under the law Which gov erns such conditions the judge may sentence a husband to two years on the county roads for non-sup port, but this in no way alleviates the condition of the wife, who must, as a rule, depend upon relatives or charity for support. A law- to help the deSerted wives would v prevent many from being dependent upon charity. In some cases in the past Judge Patten has sentenced desert ing husbands to the roads with the provision that they be nired out by the county commissioners and their wages go to the support of the wives. The county commissioners have been unabie to carry out this plan, as tl ey 6*»t t they have no provision in their budget to take care ol such Matters. '_ BELIEVES GUILFORD UN WAS KILLED Greensboro.—The Guilford coun ty coroner and police found them selves in disagreement today over the death of Mrs. Nellie Jones Bal linger, whose body was found Tues day afternoon with a pistol wound in the heart. While the coroner contended that the woman was murdered, police announced that it appeared to be a clear case of suicide. The coro ner's Jury yesterday returned a verdict that the woman "came to her death from a pistol wound through the heart at the hands of a person or persons unknown to the Jury.” Continue Probe. Police said they would continue their investigation, but said they still held to the belief that Mrs. Ballinger had killed herself. The body of the woman was found in the home of her mother here. A pistol was lying at her side. At the inquest a woman attendant of the funeral home announced that Mrs. Ballinger's underclothing and hose had been put on wrong side out. This information, together with the discovery of bruised spots on the woman's neck and shoulder and the absence of a bullet hole in the dress led the coroner's Jury to re turn the verdict of murder, the coroner said. It also was testified at the inquest that there was no blood on the floor where the body was found. Democrats Resoond To Plea Of Smith New York-—The radio appeal of Alfred E. Smith for contributions to wipe cut the $1,500 000 deficit of the Democratic party has brought an avalanche of checks and pledges of funds. Hundreds cf letters, accompanied by checks ranging from $5 to $100, and tel arms promising checks to follow by mail have been received by Mr. Smith, John J. Raskob, national chairmen, and James W. Gerard, tree surer of the national c6irnht.ee. No attempt has been made to total the amount received. Virtually every contributor has requested from cue to 100 copies of the book containing Mr. Smith's campai~n speeches, which he an nounced would be given each con tributor of $2 or more who request ed it. Books In Demand. A request for 100 copies of the book was received from Mayor Otto Bernstein, of Monroe, La , who tele graphed: “I obligate myself to take 100 copies of your speeches during your great effort to perpetuate the Dem ocratic party. I think what you are doing is the greatest effort on the part of one man our common country has ever witnessed.” A telegram from Mrs. A. L. Love, of Ottumwa, Iowa, read: ‘‘My compliments—Matthew 5:11 12.” "Blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecu'e you and shall say al> manner of evil things against you falsely, for My sake. "Rejoice and be exceeding glad, for great s your reward ii heaven: for so perse uted tb"7 the prophets which were before you.” New Mode! Cars For 1929 At N. Y.

Although the type of flu this year is not so serious as in 1918, I health authorities are urging every body to treat ev*n the slightest cold at the start, as colds lower the resistance and make the body an easy prey to bronchitis or pneu monia. I An interesting response to this warning has been the phenomenal call for^ Vicks VapoRub, the extern al treatment which proved so help ful in the 1918 epidemic. In spite of vastly increased ca pacity, the Vicks laboratories are j once more operating all night long r.nd are now producing 432,000 Jars daily. A substantial part of this in crease is attributed to the wide , spread use of Vicks as a preventive.
