In the entail towns, and In the country, there are thousands ot great men who » e never heard of fifty miles from their homes.' Take a ride through a farming community and when you have a big house pointed out to you, the owner o f which successfully farms several .hundred acres of land, you have found an unknown great man. * And you ride from one end of the country to the other, and you will never be out o f sight o f the homes of unknown great men of this descrip* tion. There are a dozen, or a hundred, successful, useful, worthy men to ev­ ery man who really is poor. Every good mechanic, on his way to become foreman, superintendent or employer is a successful man. We are a nation of rich men? that is. the reason bur country has such a prominent place under the sun. ADVOCATED THE EMBARGO. Farmers in this section have been taken off their feet by the attitude of Congressman Fess of this district on the high cost of living problem. If published reports are true the Con­ gressman has assumed an attitude that is directly against, the success pf the farmer. According to the re­ port our representative haB openly declared for the embargo on foreign shipments of food products to force down the prices at home. The whole tendency o f the present day is to place the blame for present prices to the fanner. The trend o f affairs is to make a goat out o f him and unless farmers are on the alert it will be done. OUR INTERESTS DATES. Liberty bond, holders took" part in the eighty-eight million dollars Un­ cle Sam distributed for interest for the third issue due September 15th. On October 15th comes another pay day and so*' in November and Dec­ ember/ On the fifteenth day of each o f eight months o f the year Uncle -Sam will visit all bond holders in the payment of his interest. These months are March, April, May, June, September, October, November and December. 1 We read that food prices are com­ ing &Iwn. The most notable examples ax;e those who sell, to the packers. What the packer has to sell to the consumer is holding its own. An exchange states that the right way'to pronounce Mexico is “ Mess- ico” , this being the Mexican way. We are all agreed that from the con­ dition* of affairs in that country the pronounciation is both correct, and appropriate. \ The war tax on sodas, ice cream, and several items that have been pe­ titioned for repeal by hundreds of thousands, of .people, will stand ac­ cording to congressional leaders. The government is running far behind in revenue and no tax repeals can be ex­ pected soon. One example of governmental blundet is the picture of 17,000 auto­ mobiles and trucks at one army camp in Maryland. These machines have Stood in the open exposed to all the elements fo r ten months. The loss by damage is said to run into the mil lions. There is every indication that this property, has been allowed to. go to waste under pressure of automobile concerns and truck manufacturers to keep them off the market. How several million men expect to make a living by not working is beyond us. A strike benefits no one. As to th steel strike these men are being paid extremely high wages and are not deserving of more money or shorter hours, The average of more than two million steel workers is $6,28 a day. When it comes to the day toiler earning more than the pro* fesional mart, teacher, professor or minister, it is time to call a halt or else pay these men who have spent time and money preparing for their work, more money. Such a condi­ tion would keep tha coming genera­ tion out of ©Ur schools and colleges which would be a step backwards. City folks are complaining about milk prices and as usual the farmer or dairyman is held to blame. Up near Cleveland the officers of an or­ ganization of dairymen were indicted for price fixing but at the trial no proof could be obtained and the jury aequited the accused. City folks are not deserving of sympathy when it Comes to high prices of milk Un­ der the Ohio laws it is almost im­ passible for a farmer to sell milk in the city. The requirements for milk standards are such that only distrib­ uting companies can handle milk or refail it. Everything is done to make tha milk costly and at the f.amo time reduce its quality that the city folks Should be compelled to pay a higher price than at present to force a re­ peal o f soma of our fool laws, The celebrated Fleischniann’s foil Ifaast tm sale el Sieglei'aMaker?* The latest records in vocal strumental at Richards, and in- The first number o f the Cedarville Lecture course will be November 24.

(Copyright. 1112, WssUrs Nswspsptr Union) LESSON FOB SEPTEMBER 28 REVIEW: JESUS OUR 9AVIOUR AND KINO, OR PARABLES OF THE KINGDOM. The method of review should be de­ termined by the grade of the class. For the Primary the review should center in the topic, “Jesus and the Children;” the Junior, “Choosing Jesus as Saviour;" Intermediate, “Ac­ cepting Christ’s Program for Our Lives;" for the Senior and Adult grades the subject of the church, not­ ing its membership, ordinances, wor­ ship, and service. A better way would be to study more fully the parables of the kingdom as set forth In Matthew 13:44-50. ' I, The Parable of the Hid Treasure (v. 14). The usual interpretation of this parable, making Christ the hid treas­ ure for which a sinner must give up everything In order to buy his salva­ tion, must be rejected for the follow­ ing reasons: (1) Christ Is not hid­ den In. a field, but has been lifted up and made a spectacle to the world. (2) Nobody has ever been obliged to buy the world.In order to get Christ. (3 ) . Salvation cannot be purchased, for it Is God's free and gracious gift. (4) No warrant Is ever held out to a man to conceal his religion after It Is obtained, I. The field. , This is the world (v. 38). Fortunately this landmark has been made by Christ himself. . 2, The treasure. In Psalm 135:4 we are told that Israel, the chosen people, Is his treasure. The same truth Is set forth In different places and ways (Deut. 7:6-8; 14:2; 26:18; 32:8, 9). When Christ uttered this parable, the ten tribes were already concealed from human observation, and as to the rest of Israel It was a prophecy of that which was to follow. The kingdom as to Its relation and bearing is now bid­ den. Christ was primarily sent to the Jews; for their sake the field was bought. 3. The Purchaser: the Son of God (John 3:16). None but the Son of God had such resources to buy the world. 4. The purchase price. This was the precious blood of the Son of God, which Is worth Infinitely more than silver and gold and the treasures of the earth (I Peter 1:13, 19; Isa. 53). II. The Parable of the Merchantman Seeking Goodly Pearls (vv. 45, 46), 1. The merchantman. He is ac­ tively engaged in search for pearls. In this search he discovers one pearl of great price. This merchantman is none other than Christ himself. The whole activity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, since the fall of man, has been seeking those who are lost. 2. The purchasing price, The mer­ chantman sold all—impoverished him­ self .-in order to buy the pearl. The poor lost sinner could not buy Christ. His salvation is without money and Without price. Christ did Impoverish himself, turned his. back upon the heavenly glory (Phil. 2:6-8) to pur­ chase the one pearl of great price by his own precious blood (Eph. 5:25; I Pet. 1:18, 19). 3. The pearl of great price. This is the church. The merchantman will find other pearfs of value, .but the peerless .gem set above all others will be the church which he has purchased with his own blood. III. The Parable of the Drag Net (vv. ,47. 50). This gives ns a picture of the con­ summation of the kingdom. No one can mistake the.meaning here. Note: 1. The sea. This word when used In a figurative sense denotes peoples and multitudes (Dan. 7:3, Rev. 17:15). 2. The drag net The word “net” in the authorized ' version Is properly translated "dragnet” 5. The net drawn to the shore when full. 4. The assortment made by the angels. 5. The destiny of the bad fish, or wicked men. He Draws Hearts of Men. On that day when onr Lord JeSns Christ was lifted up, all sorts of peo­ ple were drawn to him. There were those who loved him dearly at the foot of the Cross. There were scribes, and learned men, and aristocrats/ and priests,and common people. There were simple peasants from the coun­ try, shepherds from the hills, and a motley crowd from the city streets. There were Roman soldiers and Gali­ lean pilgrims. It was a crowd repre­ sentative of all the world’s people, and today when he Is lifted up even i s of old, he draws to himself the hearts of men, The Work That God Appoint*. I am not bound to make the world go right, but only to discover and to do with cheerful heart the work that God appoints.—Jean Ingelow. Pass That Dhy In Peace, You have only a day to pass On earth; so act as to pass that day In peace.—Be Lamennals. To Live In Peace, Pence Is the frnlt of love; for to live ir. peace, wo must learn to suffer many things.—Do Lamennals. Matthew Arnold’s Praise of Bible. Matthew Arnold, a great critic, was anything but orthodox.' “As well,” said he* “Imagine a min with a aense for sculpture not cultivating it by the help of the remains Of Greek art* and a mail with a sense of poetry not cul­ tivating it by the help of Homer and Shakespeare, as a man with a sense for conduct not cultivating it by the help * the Bible. #81 Welcome—Out of Town Friends Y ' 0 .
