The former law governing the "license at saloons has had hut a little more than a years trial and in the main has proven a goed regu­ larity measure and also ene tbat has resulted in producing much revenue for the state. The old- law placed absolute -control in the •governor who alone was held re­ sponsible for law enforcement, 1The McDermoufc law takes con­ trol of the saloons from the governor and places it in the hands of .two man. appointed, by elective'county officials,: the recorder, president of - the county commissioners and clerk o f court} fromcounties termed as license districts. The object of the old law was to take the saloon out of politico and responsibility was invested in the governor* The new law placeB the ■ saloons directly in politics and forces cobniy officials to hid for this liberal support to he :*leeted.

The-yots was 87 favorable and 58 opposed, out of a total 86. This week the^RepubU- cau state committee was called together in Columbus for conference Here it was found that sentiment existed against the MoDormont law. Ho better argument could be used against the law as it stands than the party that passed it would let it; dje a natural death by the refer-, endum route.

That UouseKeeping and campaigning for woman suffrage can he wholesome­ ly combined has-been demonstrated- by Mrs, Edna, Packman Kearns of Nassau-coun^i N, T* ■tn one day Mrs. Kearns prepared both breakfast and lunch for bet family, put her house to rights, canned seventeen cans of peas and six jars of rasplierries and then wont to a suffrage meetiug and made such a good speech, urging wo­ man suffrage hi the interest of pure food, that she started some profitable work hi the cause of votes for women, In the course, of her speech Mrs. Kearns happened to mention the can­ ning she haft done that day, and after she closed her hearers crowded about her to ask how she canned her peas. Then the idea popped into her head that hare was. a chance to make some money for woman suffrage!. . Mrs. Snyder, one of the official can­ ning demonstrators of the United States farm bureau, was-engaged as teacher, One town after another fell hi with the movement, and all through the month of August, tpe women gave practical flouiomtraUons of the fact that better housewifery and enfran­ chisement of women are twin move­ ments. As Mrs. Kearns said: . * . 'Wo are proving the fact, that suf­ fragists can can and cun campaign while they can.

OGIAIEN TEXT—Be sure your sin will And you out.—Nuro, 3S;23. Ahah disobeyed God ami failed to follow .up his victory oyer Ben-IimJad (ch. 20;31-34). Thereupon one of the prophet* resorted to a plan whereby Ahah was rebuked and also received a message that sent him “tp his house Heavy and displeased” (v, 43), All of thia needs to be borne In mind when we study Ahah's course of action re­ lated in this lesBon, Learn-by heart thq tenth, commandment! also Luke 12:15. - -I! I. The Schemes of Man, vv, 11-16. Ahah haft been king tor twenty years (B. C. 900?), Jezreel was Ms summer capital, about twenty mUes northwest of Samaria. The chief actors In this tragedy Were Naboth, a well-to-do citi­ zen; Ahah, a- petulant monarch to whom Naboth refuses to sell his vine-, yard: Jezebel, tho Lady Macbeth of Ahab’o court; elders and nobles of Jezreel, willing tools in the transac­ tion; false witnesses, executioner, and Elijah! the servant of God, who con­ fronted tho monarch In his newly gained possession. Ahab was con­ stantly in conflict with the purposes of God and with his .Word- Naboth had no righf to sell his vineyard (see Numbers 36:7; Lev, 35:23; also Ezek. 46:16) add sturdily‘stood out for his Gad-given rights. These land laws were rigid, but at the same timewise and beneficial. Instead o'f yielding’to God’s Jaw Ahah sulks like a .petted child (v, 4) and thus again runs courn ter to. God's Word (see tenth com­ mandment), At this juncture Jezebel, his wife, appeals to his pride and power as'the king (y. 7), and offers to procure the coveted possession. The methods of mankind whereby Vast pos­ sessions are accumulated do not al- Ways T>ear investigation; murder and rapine, broken hearts, and shortened Jive'-, weakened bodies and stunted children can largely be traced to the sin or Covetousness, agaiqst which We all need to be on guard (Luke 12:15; Ephu 5:5), The first pinner was covet­ ous (Gen. 3:6), so also were the chosen people of God (Josh, 7:21), and it was this that caused the first dis­ sension. among Christian ■believers (Acts 5:1-3)'. Jezebel most graciously gave Afiab that which belonged to others; how free we ail can he with the property of others! She also cloaked her designs with the mantle of religion (843)*. II. The Sentence of .God, w . 17-20. The dead Naboth waa happier thanhi* neighbors of Jezreel, the king and queen or any ot the other evil par* .tfolpants. Ahah began by Freaking the firstcommandment (I Kings16:31; Daub Si 7) and thus laid the ground­ work: of the whole train of evil for Which he and Ms household and his reign are famous. The elders rOadily obeyed the word of Jezebel and Ahab profited thereby,' but now he waa to bear the Word of God and it was not to he. So welcome, Recently we saw Elijah set aside, following his flight from Jezebel, but he is not entirely beyond use and God now gave him a new commission, one more, task in connection with his old Opponent. There is nothing indicating cowardice In Elijah's bold challenge of Ahab and , there is also a suggestion of a guilty conscience in Ahab'B exclamation, “Hast t1ou found me, O mine enemy” (V 20) ? Ahab had "gone down to the vineyard of Naboth” (v, 16) to enjoy tho pleasure of possessing his ill-got­ ten. treasure only to hear again his word of doom (ch. 20:42; 21*19), •It was ft poor exchange Ahab made (Mark 3:37), a throne and hlS life in exchange for the carrying out of his own will and the possession, of a vine­ yard. In that exact spot where Na­ both had been foully atoned the dogs would lick up the blood .of the king. As is usually the case, the guilty sin­ ner called the righteous servant of God Ms- "enemy,” yet had Ahab Obeyed the Word of Jehovah as so frequently spoken by Elijah he would have discovered him to be his trite and best friend, not his enemy. Ahah’s sin had found him out (Golden Text, Num. 32:23)* III. Th* 8ummsry. Covetousness is not the mere desire for things we do not possess, but ft deep longing which is v.tiling to do wrong, to injure oth­ er*, to profit by the evil deeds of oth-' ers in order to come into possession* Covetousness seeks to ‘g*ih *t the ex­ pense of higher and better things; it is the extreme opposite of the spirit o f him who "gave all*” The greatest danger of our land and the chief source of sin is covetousness, The source and fountain of covet­ ousness is selfishness. Hence the one and only cure is in a. changed heart, one consecrated to Gtid and devoted to the service of others' Love God, obey his Word, strive With all our ransomed powers to tmlid Up and advance Mi kingdom and covetousness will vanish as miBt be* for the summer sun. Covetousness is insatiable, It ii never satisfied, It is like the dffig habit* it grow* W leaps ftnd bounds. It is idolatry, effectually shutting us out ot the kingdom.
