H A G E R East of Canal 413 East Third Street DAYTON, OHIO A speaker at the farmers’ Institute stated that since the new school law was passed, there has been politics in the schools, as if there never had politics in the schools of, thik state previous to that time. What about the year* that school board members were selected by political hoses pre. vious to the passage of .the law for a separate school ballot? What about the times when the teachers saw to it that only certain persons favorable to them were pushed a® candidates? We do not say there 4s jlo politics in the schools now; but we do say that conditions are no. worse now than then. In fact what Is there that con* corns the public that is not In poli­ tics? The trouble In this respect is not with the new law. or the old one. The people have only awakened to the fact that politics controls most every­ thing nowadays. ■■ * We heard the statement the other day that the Fatte son-Boxwell school, law 'which provided high school edu­ cation for rural pupils was entirely responsible for the’ decline of the rural schools dn that -the hoys and girts had been tolled oft to the towns and cities, in our opinion such a view is absurd and dt only dignifies if to give it answer. The Boswell law lias directly benefited the rural schools dn' -that dt paved the way for a,', higher education for thousands of hoys and girls that otherwise would,never have been seen in n high school roon^- The provision where this education could be secured free to the parents has been taken advantage of by all classes, irrespective of their station in life. From- a financial standpoint the Boxwell law has been of far more benefit to the rural .taxpayers than those o f the cities and towns. There have been few rural high schools be­ cause of -the enormous cost connect­ ed with their operation. The Final pupils in, the. town- high schools have been educated at an actual loss when all things are taken- into considera­ tion. It {s costing over $90 a head dn Cedarville township to conduct the stihools. The village district is paid $36 a head for Boxwell -students and $27 for grade students from the town­ ship. jf the township vims compelled to provide a high school of its own the least possible cost per head would .be ,$125. The town schooQs have sac-. riflCed for the BOxwell students. The rural schools are better off as a re- . suit of the Boxwell law, both educa­ tionally and financially. um A re Neglecting Your Inter­ ests,' If You Do Not Attend Our Clean Sweep Sale Men’s Blk.

BESSON TE3CT-I Samuel 4:1-13, IS, GOLDEN TEXT—Be. ye doer* of the word, and no t hearer*-only, deluding your own selves,—dame* 1:23 R. V; . • « The Philistine* in the days of Ell overran Israel pretty much a t will. All Israel, God’s people, soon knew that God was speaking through this new prophet. I. No Help at Ebenezer, vv. 1,2. Eb- enezer was that place where Samuel later set up the stones of commemo­ ration (I Samuel 7:13). Here the ag­ gressive Philistines overcame and put to rout the Israelites. Israel bad sinned and needed correction (chapter 7:3; Ps. 166*40,41). When God's peo­ ple neglect him they weaken them­ selves and easily become the prey of their enemies. Full often the church of today stands defeated and dis­ graced, nay even turns its back to the enemy, because it harbors sin and sinners in its ranks (Josh. 7:13), II. Seeking Help, vv. 3-9. If Israel really desired to know the cause of their discomfiture they did not need to go far to Beek it. The trouble was that they were not willing to seo and own it •(L Cor. 11:31). The reasoning upon the part of-these elders seems to he, “Why have we, Israelites, been smitten by these Philistines who are' not God’s chosen people?” I t was absurd and unjust for them to have to suffer. ,We hear this same!sort of reasoning today, whereas GpdWould have us probe deeper and search our hearts, for i t we regard iniquity in our hearts the Lord will not hear us. At Shiloh, Eli is caring for the ark, and with the fatalism and superstition that will govern the ungodly, Israel sends for It “that it may save us” (v, 3), The ark contained the tables of the law and was the symbol of the presence of God, (EX, 25:10-22). Tlieir trust was in the ark and not in -the God of tho ark. Such Is ever the dan­ ger of formalism in religion. To carry the ark. about Jericho trusting in Je>. hovah, was quite different from har­ boring the sqiib of Eli, yet thinking that Gk?d could not let the ark be captured. The churches of our land are the saving salt, but “if the salt hath lost its savour,” if Hophnl and Phjnehas bear the ark, nothing but defeat end disgrace can be expected, though the enemy may tremble (v.,8)’. The Philistines were strong enough to smite because of the weakness of, Israel. They recognized the shouts and remembered the mighty deeds of Jehovah, which exploits would have been repealiiJiad Israel truly turned to God. There was good reason for the Philistine* to fear. But God was not on the side of Israel a t that time. The Philistines began to exhort them­ selves. Their call (v, 9) was a ,good one and was need later by Paul (1 Cor. •16:13). For them not to do anything was to, be captured by their former Blaves. If they fought, they could but die. III. The Lost Battle, vv. God would not succor his chosen people, nor defend the pyinbolB of religion when the spirit and heart of that re­ ligion bad departed (P*. 78:56-64). The two reprobate sons-of Eli were slain as a punishment for their sins and In fulifillment of the word of God (chapter 3:12; 3*.13, 14). Their pun­ ishment came In connection with the same holy service they had defiled. IV. The Death of El|, w . 12-1& The aged Ell, now ninety-eight years old, was anxiously awaiting ugwb o f the battle, “for hi* heart trembled for the ark of God.” Thl* anxiety was quite unnecessary (V. 13), .God‘can take Tare of his ark. Ell bad reason, how­ ever, to tremble for Israel and his wicked son* He is an illustration of those Indulgent parents who refuse to use discipline in the care of their children. The ark did not return to Shiloh. After Its various vicissitudes it louud an abiding place In the hous i of Abln- adab, whose son Eleazar was sancti­ fied to take charge of it. Later it was taken to Jerusalem, and in the meantime Shiloh passed into oblivion. ,« Golden Text, That we learn to do by doing is a fundamental prin­ ciple in pedagogy. Here-human words do not change character. Youth does not acquire purity of character by listening to beautiful statements about tho virtues. Religion is not a last re­ source. It must be practiced in youth if it is to give strength, courage and comfort In old age. It is not a matter of creed anil formula but a life; it is not a convenience but a course of action that governs all of life. It is not the turning in life’s testing times, to those forms from which all life has departed. Parents today seem to bo lax in discipline. Too Often it is the child that brings up the parent Wo need to accustom tho child to virtue and obedience, to teach him truth whiie at tho knee, that when “he Is old lie may not depart” therefrom. , While somo children of good parents go astray yet this is not tho rule. A true Christian atmosphere and spirit of service ia the home, the Sunday xcliool and the church are. tho great­ est possible safeguards for the young. for FNKK«(ASOH«*»WpWtM> I f.ill of indent InforoMUlero. lt»7inwll>ro«to | D.
