NO DEALER SALES Petquimani Weekly, Hertford, N.C., World Events And The Bible Apostate people of ancient Israel said, "The way of Jehovah is not adjusted right." , To which God replied, "Are not the ways of young people not ajdusted right?" (Ezek. 18:25) In our day, also, people have strange ways of looking at matters and . strange standards for judging. : As an example, a leading New York newspaper recently ' published an editorial .protesting - the planned killing of millions of black-birds. The birds have been roosting in a certain region in two southern states, and officials claimed that they were forming a serious health hazard to humans and domestic animals. The editoral said that the "poignant spectacle of millions of dead and dying birds ought to make Army and municipal officials reconsider this hideous project." Without attempting to assess their view on this, it Mrs. J.E. Morris was hostess to her rook club Friday afternoon at her home on Front Street. Those playing were Mrs. G.R. Tucker, Mrs. D.F. Reed, Mrs. C.E. Cannon, Mrs. Walter Dale, Mrs. C.T. Skinner, Mrs. J.H. Towe, Mrs. Jack Kanoy, and Miss Louise Chalk. Mrs. Dale won the high score prize. A sweet course was served. Mrs. T.L.

The editorial termed the conviction ' ; "misguided" and "almost ; unbelievable." It questioned the competence of the jurors to decide when human life t begins because they were ' said to have been influenced in their decision by the fact ' that a picture of the fetus , "looked like a baby." , ; Apparently the "poignant' -spectacle" of hundreds of ' thousands of unborn babies ', robbed of the opportunity to , live does not affect the editorialists as much as that of dead birds.
