Before me constantly.
Weary I turned to Duty's path,
And Happiness sought me,

Why Sludy the Bible ?
1. It is the oldest and yet the
m )st popular book in the world
2. From every standpoint it
is the greatest of honks. Its language
is utu quailed by an\ Gilt
er; its interesting narratives an
unmatched; its histor\ and M rapines
are majestic; its inspiration
came from Cod himv 1! and
its influence for good in the
world is far greater than all nth
er books combined.
3. The Bible is the revelaii- i
of God's will towards mankii d.
It contains the right solution u,
evtry religious problem that con
Ironts men.
4 It is a book you can stud>
a Uletime ami yet not reach tindepths
of its inspired t? achi.igs.

Murder Record
Wilmington Morning Star
The number of murders comrutted
in this country' last year
v.is 9,000, mid the previous year
hows a similar record. In the
ity of Philadelphia one hundred
nut dors were committed, and
he record for the country as a
vhole is without a parallel tor a
country enjoy:ng peace condiions.
Tlie situation betokens
n undermining of moral coniitions
which is indeed appalling.
I he fundamental law of the land
ecognizes the sacredness of hunan
lite,and all of our institutions
lie built upon this conception oi
civilized conditions, and the rec
r>rd demands and should receive
lb'1 most serious consideration ol
the public. We are prone to look
to the t ourts for the preservatior
o: ' rder and protection of life
and loo often forget that th<
courts are no different from o
en;'ji than the standards impos
rd by public sentiment. Th<
reason that the courts are singlei
out is because they represen
something that is definite am
tangible, but at bottom the trou
ble is with the people themselves
Th courts may impose made
*. sentences, but, the jurie
\;iv;i directly from the people
nrgely responsible for botl
r e verdict and the penalty. Oi
nr.arily, a judge will not impos
i minimum sentence excep
i pon the recommendation of th
jury and there can be no dout
that the practice of delaying th
'red ot capital cases is intende
.xJ bas the ellect to influenc
! lb.: verdict in favor of thedefem
tier invaluable service lo society
by resisting delays and securing
fir< mpt trials.
'1 he remedy must start in the
home. This is indispensably
accessary, lorthe failure to inculcate
sound precepts and righteous
principles in the child, is a failure
which society in the large cac
never wholly supply. The wani
i.i such sound groundings in the
child explains the weak senti
nu-utalitv which so olten infiu
dice.-, i juty, and which is in nc
. ;n i uegree responsible tor the
..ti ure to administer justice ic
tn h a way as to be at once
:i nteons in itself and preventive
at its tnikieuce.
