B & A ^ . c R i t i e s That a little group of men of fan- 'atical ideas could defeat the will of the majority, also the demands of the great majority of our citizens, over supporting the president at this hour, seems that those guilty of such could he charged with treason, . ’ The fault of course lies in the rules of the senate where unlimited debate might defeat a measure. That such rules will be changed before another session is almost certain, i One is not necessarily favoring im­ mediate war by condensing the action of the dozen senators that refused to permit the arming of merchant vessels. One has to- question the sin­ cerity of such men as Bryan, LaFol- lette and ethers who oppose this movement. 1 ■ • • In fact Bryan's measure has beep taken on more than one occasion, The first was leaving the cabinet because 912,000 was not sufficient salary, his leaving being a t a time when grave differences had been created by his own handling of foreign affairs. One year Bryan has toured this state ad­ vocating statewide prohibition and the following year advocates the election of a wet candidate fbr state office. . Bryan’s position a t the present time is anything but patriotic ano judging from past performances mus. be for selfish reasons only. Barhum, of circus tame, had the right solution in judging the public mind as to peo­ ple liking to be humbugged but the surprising thfiig in' this day and age of enlightenment is that the .public will continue to be duped by our lat­ est Benedict Arnold, William Jen- nigs Bryan.

W, Griffith’s gigantic military spectacle “The Birth of a Nation” will be given at,, the Victoria Theater, Dayton, on Friday night, March l(5th. Following this appearance there will be two performances daily in­ cluding Sunday, The matinees will start a t 2:30 p. m. and the night performanc a t 8:15 o’clock. Owing to th e extraordinary interest •that centers in this engagement the man­ agement of the attraction has com­ pleted arrangements with Manager Miller of the Victoria Theater, Day- ton, to pay special attention to mail orders of patrons from cities and towns in this section of the state. I t is next to impossibe to de­ scribe. “The Birth of a Nation” in a way that gives one a grasp of its bigness. Imangine a stage twelve miles wide and as deep as the eye can penetrate; Upon this field are thrown vast armies showing .the makifig of history in its rough aiid virile farm. Across your view flash nearly twenty thousand players who make the his­ tory of our most stirring periods of national development live, while three thousand horses mounted by the most daring- riders in the country play their part in the unfoldment of an intensely dramatic, story. . ‘ . . For its basic theme “The Birth of a Nation” deals with the relation­ ship of the slavery question to Amer- lean histoyjt Mr* Griffith create ed a new1a rt to embrace the intense­ ly impressive periods of our devel­ opment. No stage was ever large enough to crowd one tenth of this into its confines, so he took his drama Into the open country and there re­ produced in detail the high lights of '■his great country's enlargement. He begins by showing the advent of the first negro slave into tin colonies. Then his narrative leaps forward^ to the days of anti-slaVery agitation and the first* rumblings are heard if th a t internecine strife which later olunged the country into war, Pres- !dent Abraham Lincoln looms large in this story and With the signing of the first call for volunteers to put down the rebellion the war begins. You follow Griffith's impelling de­ tails forward through the memorable battle fields of the' South.. You see Sherman’s mighty army move to the sea and leave ruin and desolation m its wake. Entire cities which were built in exacS cbPY 5 >f the originals: are burned and destro'yed. Grant and Lee meet in the final struggle before >he trenches of Petersburg and here is given in historical accuracy the drilling details of that last stand if the Confederacy. Lee and Grant sign terms of peace a t Appomattox and the armies turn back to their homes to take up tlie work of repair­ ing the damage done. Then comer, the.nex t tragic step, the assassina­ tion of president Lincoln and ' the sail days for the South when adven- turcres from the North ruRhed in to attempt to complete by political chicanery what was not accomplished by the scom-ge of war. The negro question still lacking any semblance of sane solution remains a menace and the Ku Klux Clan springs into being with its initial purposes out­ lined in action. The excitement grows intense. At last there comes a better understanding and the allegory of peace and national unity reveal the birth of a greater nation that goes forward to its fuller destinies. Jn this fabric of history and start­ ling facts is woven a drama of ro­ mance and strife and comedy and stirring action. I t is a story unlike, anything ever attempted in the thea­ tre before. Fbr his emotional mes­ senger Griffith, depends'Upon the or­ chestra of forty pieces to tell in ■he music of the day the heart long­ ings and the hopes and hatreds of those who made our history. Every detail is .fitted to the action and so closely are the two knit together that ne is dependent upon the other and h- in difficult to say which lends the fuller power to the impressions made, Tt possesses ■'‘every element of appeal that makes the theater the popular inrtitution it is. Over 50,000,000 peo­ ple on four continents of the world have paid the tribute of approval to its greatness. For the Dayton engagement at the Victoria the same wonderful pyoduc- •i*.r which ran two years in New York and a year in London will be given in every detail. The theater Ksoit has been carefully gone over by Griffith's staff of technical ex­ perts and everything necessary to make the presentation as perfect as human ingenuity can devise will ba noted in the offering, The daily matinees will be a fea­ ture of distinctive interest to vis­ itors to the city. For these matinee,- the prices Will bo 25 cts, 50 cts, 75 cts and $1,00. For tlie nights the prjees will be 25 cts, 50 cts, $1.00 and $1.50. !SJ PILES AtmAM, DISEASES OF THE RECTUM r.'. rr.-r.’.-Vif! »nn.-.T:o-:« <5 (!.oftjfc!;*;, and iht *«W.oc-d *v> a ttxrtaHy r,l tueta dijtitta t) e autant e'.ptfi.-va.

Office over Galloway & Cherry, JESUS THE BREAD OF LIFE. ,. LESSON TEXT—Jolm 6:Z4-37. ; GOLDEN TEXT—Jesus said unto them, i I am the bread of life,—John C:33. j Following the feeding of the five . thousand, Jcsua caw the design of the ; multitude (v, 15), and separated hliq- ' self unto prayer. Following that comv ! immlon, the disciples went over the ■sea toward the City of Capernaum , (v. 17), but in his supernatural power | lie followed them, walking upon tlie | \vater ' (v. 10). Midway ho entered <tlieir ship, and immediately they j reached tlie land toward which they Ihad been striving (v. 21; Mk. 0:48-49), | The next day (John C;22) the people j who at tills period were following him ■ in such great multitudes, took steps to ■ reach him. Finding that he was noj at their side of the lake, they took • boats and came to Capernaum, “seek- t ing for Jesus” <v» 24), We read that \ the common people heard him gladly. These people wanted the comradshlp of Jesus, and the longest bread line id tlie world today is that of hungry hearted nien. The question Is, are we Witling to give them the loaves of comfort? • ■I. Bread Which Perisheth (vv. 23- 21). “If you think you wjil always get the loaves and fishes simply, be­ cause you have followed the Lord, you. have handed yourself a goldbrick.”- Dr. Grtflin Bull. Moist of .us will go further for victuals than we will for a vision. When tlie people found Jesus (v. 25) they rather reprimanded him for leaving them, when the fact of the matter was .that he was not beholden •to them in any sense whatsoever. I t looks very well for these people to be “seeking Jesus,” but they were seek­ ing the wrong thing (v. 20). It was not really Jesus himself they wanted, but tlie loaves and the fishes. It was not the “sign” as indicating his divine character that drew them, but simply the wonder as indicated by the fact that they expe^tefi a constant supply of bread, nor did they see In that bread the sign but only tlie bread. ’ Salvation is the .free gift of God apart from works. Nevertheless lie commands the exercise of will. “This is the work of God that ye believe on him'whom lie hath sent” (v.29). This Is not Inconsistent with I, Cor. 12 ;3, I. c.,‘”No man c*m say that Jesus is the Lord but by the Holy Ghost” Like the two blades of a pair of shears, the executive act of my will in belleyirig on Jesus is met by the regenerating en­ ergy of God's spirit making mo a son of his. » The Jews demanded a sign ns a con­ dition of believing on him,, when lie, himself, was the greatest of. all signs (v. 30). They sought to enforce their demands by reference to Moses and the manna, but Jesus showed them that the manna was a typo of “the (true) bread of God,” The character­ istics of this bread a re : (1) It comes down from heaven; (2) It glvoth life unto the world, Jesus’ hearers did not understand what he meant, ami ex> claimed: “Evermore • give us tills bread.” Jesus was trying to Impress upon his hearers tlie same diligence in heavenly-matters as in the pursuit of eurtlily meals. III. The Everlasting 'B'read (vv, 35- 37). Misunderstanding his teaching (v. 84) Jesus said unto them plainly: “I am tlie bread of life,” meaning that he is the true bread of God. lie is not only the giver of the bread oi life, but he, himself, is the Bread of Life. As bread will satisfy the needs of the physical body, giving strength, vital­ ity itud energy, so lie will supply the needs of the soul. lie will satisfy the deep hunger and longing which Is the evidence of need, and ho will also sat­ isfy the thirst which Is the more In­ tense desire—the spiritual craving of the soul. Jesus ministers to the never- falling strength of all who come to him, and who bclleVb on him. Coming to him is seeking help and blessing from l..m. Believing on him Is the ab­ solute abandonment of self to him. Tills multitude had actually seen the living bread (v, 30), yet lliey believed not .because they were so occupied with the material pud unreal things of this world. Today wo find men so taken up with the material and unnrenl that they neither appreciate nor believe upon the trite bread which lias been sent down from God out of heaven. Not all will come to him (John 5:24), but anyone can prpvo that lie belongs to the elect, of God' and the compnny of the Father by coming to Jesus (v. 87). If any man does come, ho will be received. These words of Jesus are very posi­ tive, “I will lit no wise cast him out.” Jesus, the One who raises the dead, Is therefore co-equal with God. Note the remainder' of tills chapter: “I will raise hint up at the last day” (v, 40); “He that bellevefh on me hath ever­ lasting life” (v. 47); “Xam the bread of life” (v. 48); “Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, ye have no life In you” (v. 53); “‘Whoso eatctli my flesh lmtli eternal lift)” (, 54); “For my flesh is meat Indeed” (v. Ufy) {“He that oatetli my flesh dwelleth. In me and I in him” (v. 50); “Ho that eatctli me, even he shall live by me” (v, 57). This is symbolical, It Is true, but It Is very real, v* T*bM« EXECUTOR’S SALE Xwill offer for Bale, on the farm Saturday, March I7th, 1917 A t 10:JO O ' c l o c k A . M.
