NO REASON TO COMPLAIN. We are hearing much comment on the new tax law, people having made up their mind that the new law will not work. They are' passing judg­ ment on the law before it is tried out just as was done with the Wames law, which to this day gets credit for placing the duplicate o f the state where it is. But the people did not want that kind o f a law and it was changed! The criticism o f the Wames’ law was that the people were deprived of selecting their assessors. This crit­ icism being due largely from a pol­ itical standpoint' due to Republican op­ position. The Parrot law that next followed permitted the election o f as- ,sessors but gave the boards o f com­ plaint powers'that tied the hands o f the assessors elected by the people. The Supreme court held this law un­ constitutional a s . also the appointive feature o f assessors. The last legislature having in mind the cry o f letting the, people rule and the demand fo r returning the as­ sessing, power back to the voters pass­ ed. a non-partisan law,, framed by a non-partisan committee, that makes each property owner his own assessor, s f f r ’ “ “ ’ LESSONFORAPRIL 15 JESUS THE GOOD SHEPHERD.

He-mb r ill out the blank, go. before a notary public or other proper officer, make oath that his return is correct, and mail it to the county auditor. These returns will be checked by the assessors. If you do not .make your return correctly and have i t .in by May 1st, you will loose your exemption of $100 and a penalty o f 50 per cent can be added. . Still the .public kicks and is dis­ satisfied,with the law that has re­ turned. to each taxpayer just what he demanded, and more, under the Warned law. The Warnes law irres­ pective o f the appointive feature was the best tax law Ohio has ever had. The Parrot law whs a makeshift by permitting the people to elect assess­ ors and then taking their power away from them and placing it in the hands of a board o f revision, The present law should have a favorable trial. In the meantime the public should make up its mind what it wants. John Q. Owens, secretary of the Cleveland Federation of Labor, and Charles Smith, business agent of the Building Trades council, were indict­ ed on charges of blackmail. A wage increase aggregating $50,- 000 a year was granted employes of- the Toledo Railways and Light com­ pany.

Jeaus, .the Door (w . 1-9).. Any­ one who tries to get access to the sheep any other way than through Jesus the door is a thief and a rob­ ber (v. 1). A door Is an invitation to enter, to investigate, to purchase, to learn, to mgetrotliers. It Is the proper entrance. T o lgo In through any other way arouses suspicion. It is also a means of safety to control those who enter ; it can be closed In case of dan­ ger, and Is strong to- protect against Storms and thieves. It is a means of separationr-to insure privacy, and to furnish a means o f egress.. Jesus says we are to—go in’*for communion with God, and to “ go out” for service, to “go In” for strength and to “go out” for conflict. Terse nine is a wonder­ ful verse. In It we have ithe simplic­ ity o f tlie Gospel, “I am the door the exclusiveness o f the Gospel, “By me,” tlie conditions of the Gospel, “En­ ter i n t h e certainty, “Be s a v e d t l io liberty, “Go in and out;” the provis­ ion, “ Find pasture.” The trife acceptance of Jesus leads not to a life of fear and constraint but to the perfect llherty of a child, satisfaction in green pastures (Ps. 23: 2). that never fail (Rev. 7 :16-17). The world’s richest pasture'lands are bleak and barren wildernesses in comparison with tills* Christ is the door to other things not mentioned in this lesson (See John 14:0; Eph. 2:18; Rom. 5:1- 2 ; Heb, 10:19-22). By him we enter the room o f the knowledge o f God. The Christian’s business is to know God and to make him known. II. Jesus, the Good Shepherd (w , 10-18), It is hot .enough to be a door. A door has no volition. It cannot leave Its place. A shepherd can go In and out, A false Christ and false shep­ herd are really thieves and robbers who come to “ Steal ahu kill and de­ stroy.” On the other hand, Jesus’ mission wa? a glorious one, “ I came that they mijjht have life, and that they might have* It more abundantly.” As a good Shepherd (1) he has cour­ age (v. 12 )., Jesus was not only will­ ing, hut-actually'did give his life tor the sheep. He had love for all o f the sheep, and was willing to seek the lost (Matt. 18:12). Ho also hnd confi­ dence, due to his knowledge o f God (v. 14). This Is not audacity but quiet confidence due to experience. He knows the proper pastures. He knows /where to find water fo r the sheep. He 'knows the dangers and pitfalls along the pathway. He knows how to di­ rect our efforts. Sunday school teach­ ers who are following in the steps o f the master, and who perform the acts o f a good shepherd, must pay tho price o f knowledge.. (2)' Jesus had character (v. 15). He was right In the Sight of God, hut in order to bo right in the sight of God he must also ‘he right in tho sight o f men. God ex­ pects results. The church expects re- "sults from- us. The parents who trust their children to our teaching expect results. A sheep does not live for It­ self. It lives for others. Unless •It produces wool, and Is good for meat, It has existed In vain; so God, man and the church expect of us, as under­ shepherds, that we shall produce re­ sults. This we do not have to dp in our own strength fo r any of us may have th*e life which is “ abundant” and “ exceeding” and “beyond measure.” .The question is, have we this super­ abundant life? (See I Pot. 1 :8 ; John 1:15; Col. 1:10; Eph, 3:10-19). Doctor Torrey has called our atten­ tion to ten point, about the good Shep­ herd* (1) He \knows the sheep. (2) He Is known by his sheep. (3) He has a personal interest In his sheep, calls each by name (v. 8), (4) He leadetli them on. (5) He thrusts forth the Inggard sheep (v. 4). (C) He over­ looks none; all are,his own (v, 4 R. V.), (7) He goeth before them. He has trodden every step of the wny that they must take, (8) He careth for the sheep (V. 18). (9) He layetli down his life for the sheep (w , 11 and 15). (10) Glvcth eternal and abundant life to the sheep (w » 10, 28, 29). Jesus haq sheep outside o f Israel (r, 10). When these are brought In they will nil become one fold (Eph, 2:14, 15; Gal, 8:28). It is through hearing his voice that they are to be brought, The laying down o f his life was a vol­ untary act On his part, but it wns per­ formed in obedience to the father’s will (See Chap. 0:38; 15:10). Jesus intended that his relation to his fol­ lowers should bo Exactly like that which bound himself to the Father (See Chap. 17:21-23). ” This love o f the Good Shepherd led him to die for our sins, and to he raised for our justification.
