MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., March (UP)—The Indiana -tale prison board today was to recommend to Gov. Ed. Jackson that John Hall, convicted murderer, be given a dOday respite from death. Hall was to die in the electric chair March !i, for the murder of Louis Kreidcr, a South Bend druggist.

The hoard, at a meeting last night, voted to grant Hull the stay, and to hold an pan meeting March 30, at which time petitions for and against commutation of sentence will be heard. If Jackson concurs in the board’s ei ommendation, Hall’s execution date would advu. e to April 10.

mons, Mr. Bruner said, "1 belie approaching every pr Idem frn.n tic scientific point of view, tha i 1 I facing all the facts invob I. Only a few of the students, comparatively speaking, attend the services of the Churches in Greencastle or manifest much interest in their programs. The way to approach this problem is not through a wholesale denunciation of cither the students ir the Churches. If there is something wrong with the Churches in that they are not making the largest appeal to the students we ought to know about it. If there is something wrong with the attitude of the student toward the Church, we ought to know about that. This series of sermons, and the puctions which have been published, is an attempt to get at some of the facts involved. We do not know just what conclusions we may come to in the

end."

Mr. Bruner read the four qu< •ion.which had to do with the Bible, and then read some of the most characteristic answers which he had i ceived to them. The first question was, ‘‘What value does the Bible hav for college students?” In the “yes” and “no" answers to this que - tion there were sixty percent who answered “no", and forty percent “yes.” The second question was, “Do they consider the Old and the New Testaments as of equal value?” The majority of those who commented on this question held the New Testament to be of more value than the Old, but in the “yes” and “no” answers the results were equal, fifty per cent for both “yes” and “no”. The third question had to do with the inspiration of the Bible, “What ideado they have of inspiration?” About sixty percent did not answer this question at all, and about ninty per cent of those who did answer it showed that they had missed the whole point of the question. This question revealed the faet that perhaps the average student as well as the average adult does not know what this business of inspiration is all about. The inspiration of the Bible according to some special theory is not nearly so important as the Fundamentalists would have u believe. The last question was, “Do College 1 students read or study the Bible to any great extent?” The answers to this question revealed a diversity of

It i- the literature of the Hebrew people and of the early Christian church. It is God’s message to the human soul. It i.- not a book of ancient history, or a text hook of scienee.

AGAIN COMING TO GriTncaMh 1 — ( oininertial Hotel, March loth. On My Regular Visit For < >ne Day Only Hours 9 A. M. to 8 P. M. DR. I. M. CULVER. Specialist (1 iieli.-ed ti the State ot Indiana) Bring thi knowledge of forty > 1 ais ot experience in the successful 11• ..Uncut nt Complicated chronic condilions. Dr. Culver, experienced specialist, formerly with National Doctors of Milwuukei, also some years connected wi ll the Chicago Hospital, treats with ut -urirical operations or hypoderniic inji tions, disease.- of the blood, -kin. and the internal organs, i ' jmatisin, sciatia, lung trouble, old ulcers, tape-worm, eczema, asthma, chronic cm tipation, epilepsy, high blood pre ure, bed wetting and other morbid uMTciions of the body. Years i f experience and the great number of r ises successfully treated prow that the methods of the Doctor ; at- very dependable. Many people keep on suffering from ailment- that might be greatly impioved because they cannot aft'ord to go to high-priced specialists away ami few communities 'have -ufficient numbers of such cases to -upport a specialist. The doctor has solved this problem by traveling from town to town to meet the -irk. He instructs patients, recommend a course of treatment, and teachers failing men and women how to take care of themselves at home. To those having ailments of long standing, whatever the trouble may i be, and notwithstanding the poor reult- of former treatments, come and 1 talk it over. Examination and advice free. Ladies are requested to come escorted.

i dig in the mountain for gold and l separate it from that which was not i goid. So God has given u.- religion. We have to dig in the Bible for the

pure gold that is there.”

Mr. Bruner said that he considered himself fortunate in that he did not inherit any theory or conceptions of the Bible from his parents. He aid that he joined the Christian church because it was the Church of his choice and not the church of his parents, and he .-aid that he joined the Christian Church not because it practiced immersion as baptism but because of its absolute freedom in the study and interpretation of the Bij hie. He pointed out the fact that in his study of the Bible he had always hern an absolutely free man with no creeds or confessions of ecclesiastical authority hanging over him to inlluence that study. “I have always i studied the Bible just as I would any • other book of literatuie, remembering 1 that it wa- written :n human language and that the same rules of grammar are to be applied to its language as to the language of any other book. I have also followed this simple rule in reading any of the Bible: Who i- -peaking; to whom are the) speaking: for what purpose are they speaking: and what is the gen-e>-al historical .,r moral background of the incident. In this way I have been able to separate the gold from that which is not goid, and have come to know that you cannot pul! a text out of any part of the Bible regard-

lts> of its context and use it to prove i any point in an argument or to hoi- I

ster up any creed or doctrine.” In his closing word Mr. Bruner said that it “is not the mark of uperior education, or of culture or even of common intelligence to leave the Bible out of one’s program of life. No man can he scientific who ignores the major factors which have gone into the life of the rare, and urely the Bible has been one of those factors. 'I he gold which has Keen dug from the Bible is interwoven into the best thought, the tr t laws, the best morals, the beat Ut(rature and the best life of two tfiousand years. This is why it hold the supreme place in religion and mcrals. This is why no man or woman who hopes to rail themselves educated in any real sense can ig-

nore it.”

Miss Nixon’s role in this Univer-sal-Jewel production which has been booked to be shown at the Voncastle theater today and Tuesday is that oi .Sully Phillirnore, the beautiful daughter of a proud but impoverished family that sways the social destinies of H nolulu. The part calls for exceptioiuil histrionic ability and according to tho-e who have seen the picture, Mi Nixon walks away with

(lying colors.

“The Chinese Parrot” was directed by Paul l.eni, one of the greatest of European directors, who came to this country a year ag' under contract to Univer-al. The first production wa“The Cat and the Canary” hailed as i directorial triumph, and resulted in his being chosen to hundb the Beg
