Mom read And reduce the High Cost of Living Holstisn B Eat IS THE CHEAPEST AS WELL AS THE MOST WHOLESOME FOOD ON THE MARKET BUT THAT EXTRA LOAF rYour Grocer Has It CHERRY CITY BAKU COMPANY There seems to be an all-too-general feeling that newspaper men as a class are irreligious; that their work brings so constantly to their at tention the seamy side of life that many lose their spiritual bearings and drift upon the atmerialistic tide. Such a conception of the charac ter of tho. e who conduct the nation's newspapers must necessarily reflect on the integrity of the press itself. It lays the foundation for distrust and disbelief. We cannot deny that a certain por tion of the press caters to what own ers of a certain class of papers de clare is a demand from- the public for the publication of detailed de scriptions of unwholesome and ab normal incidents in social relations. But the bulk of newspaper men are honest, with an ethical code as high, or higher, than any other profession. There is at present among news papers a movement to get back to fundamentals, to strengthen the mor al standing of the press. It is mak ing headway. It Is known as the "Back-to-the Bible" movement. The Bible has a greater influence upon the lives of the men who con duct the newspapers of America, and of the world, than most people rec ognize. And in this connection we present an excerpt from the remarks of Olin W. Kennedy, managing editor of, the Miami (Fla.) Herald, before a young men's Bible class in that city recently: "I presume that I was invited here not as a student of the Bible, but rather as a newspaper man to give you some idea as to how the Bible is regarded in a newspaper office. I have known many newspaper men in my time and have never yet found one who did not have a holy reverance for the Bible and its teachings. You may think it strange in my saying so, but I am- convinced that there is nothing that has been printed in a newspaper, that is more interesting than the stories in the Bible. Every phase of crime that has occurred or will occur is covered by the crimes depicted in the Bible. Every invention, every great happen ing, every great war is told more completely in the Bible than the newspapers have been able to ever relate the stories of any of these things. There is more romance in the Bible, sweetly told, than there is in newspaper fiction. No story ever printed equals that of Ruth and Boaz. There are no more thrill ing murders than that of the slay ing of Abel by Cain. I would ask you where on the sporting pages to day is there anything equaling the great chariot races described in the Bible? Sometimes considerable doubt is cast upon the peculiar stories print ed in the newspapers. Are there any more curiosity than that of Jonah and the whale and of Lot's wife being turned into a pillar of salt? Noth ing in the press of today could ex cite as gTeat curiosity as those stories. I think that all of you who have even carelessly read the Bible know that every modern in vention has been foretold and that nothing has been left for the news papers to record except the details. The great disasters of the last thousand years do not compare with the flood. No mob scene of modem times has anything to compare with the crucifixion of Christ. "Turn to the courts, if you will, and recall, if you can, any trial in modem history that equals in inter est and in legal ability shown, that of the trial of Christ by Pilate. The greatest lawyers of today say that it was one of the most technical trials of all times, and that no modem legal battle has equaled it in the legal ability displayed. "I know that millions of people marvel at the stunts of Douglas Fairbanks and other movie actors. When have there been more thrilling istunts than that of Absalom whose hair caught in the branches of a tree, leaving him hanging as his steed galloped from beneath him? There are a thousand scenes depicted in the Bible, which, if they could be put on films, would be far more thrilling: than anything that could be shown today. "I have roughly sketched these things which have come to my no tice, merely to impress upon you the fact that within the covers of the Bible there is everything you can get out of the newspaper if you will only study the book, and not treat it as a thing apart from daily life. "Every copy of the Bible that has been printed, every plute that has been made for printing the book, every piece of manuscript l'rora which the book has been set in type, might be destroyed tday, ab solutely wiped from existence, and within one week's time the book could be reproduced from the minds of those who have committed it to memory. These professors and stu dents could be assembled for the work within a week by wireless, and a million printing presses put to work printing new Bibles.
