Phelan Takes a Chance By BAYARD SHARPE LAW OBSERVANCE Records o f penal institutions show that most o f our murderers, bandits, and homicides are being: committed by young men and women who are from 30 to 25 years o f age. The young man today who wants a criminal career knows more at 20. or 25 as to how t o crack a sate o r hold up a bank than the old time safe* blower knew at 50. The young man o f course has had the advantage of. scientific training some place. He al­ so has electricity, modern tools and high explosives to aid him* In years gone b y it was said that the man who wanted a Jesse James career read up on dime novels. Now* we say he gets his inspiration from the movies. The recent World War is credited with having a. part in inflaming the minds o f youth and hardened them to undertake wrongful gain even if the sacrifice o f life is necessary. The idea o f having a gun seems to go with all those who are out fo r evil doings. The younger generation faces law obiedance with an entirely different aspect from what it was thirty years ago. Those days the average citizen was in a way more law abiding fo r the reason we did not have so many laws. Now we have laws to govern everything and everybody. The viola­ tion o f some o f our laws is looked upon as a mere joke. This impresses the younger minds and weakens them when it comes to obedience o f laws that affect not only moral principals but the ones that are supposed to act as a safe guard fo r society. As to how the yOung mind grasps law violations and is stamped with the impression that all laws can be triffled with is shown by the answer o f an eight year old youth in a Sun­ day School class .in a neighboring city The teacher was impressing on the class the duty o f law obiedance and the risk o f imprisonment and disgrace when arrest and probable fine or imf* prisornnent is invoked. This particular youngster, whose father was an offi­ cer in the church, did not appear inter ested and was asked what his parents would think should he be arrested for some wrong' doing. *< The boy gave a quick answer that he did not fear arrest fo r “ Dad” had twice been arrested and fined, once for parking wrong and once fo r speed­ ing,' and “ Dad” only laughed about it a t home. Little- lessons at home Under the proper influence will mean mote t o •the young than all the laws that can .be passed. The foundation must be laid in the home. Parents that treat law infractions lightly in. the presence . o f children are but impressing the young mind that the majesty o f the law means nothing. For this reason an oversupply, o f laws that the public is determined not observe is but the means o f breaking down o f all laws. REFORM BY BUSINESS MEN There is an old gag in a popular song: “ For everything wrong beneath the sun, IT make a law to stop it” . This is the season o f the year when would-be political reformers advocate a multiplicity o f state and national laws to remedy imperfection in trade and industry. There is a large number o f people who believe that the remedy fo r de­ fects and abuses and dishonesty in the business world is more and still more legislation. " Thus is comes about that Congress and state Legislatures and city gov­ ernments design measures to control ahd regulate everything. The wonder is that with all these on slaughts in the past, it has been pos­ sible fo r large industrial and public service organizations }to exist, to say nothing about their ability to make profits and enlist new capital fo r extensions. The people can only pray that most o f the propositions placed in state and SlopNightCoughing ThisSimpleWay People who have persistent noylna coughing spells at nlgti who through loss.ot valuable are weakening their system laying themselves open to daftt infections, can stop theto distressing trouble promptly by a very simple treatment.

Ask tor LIFE IS LONGER TODAY P A N G ’S COUCHS We .read an article a few days a g o J regarding the knghth o f life fo r the present generation. It was an expres­ sion from Dr. Charles H. Mayo, the noted surgeon o f Rochester, Minn *t had nothing to do with liqupr or that tobacco shortened the lives o f those who used them, ■Dr. Mayo says'that more progress has been made in medicine in the past twenty-four years than had been made in the past twenty-four centur­ ies. He says life is longer now than it used to be. “ King Tut died a young man became the doctors o f Ancient Egypt did not know enough about medicine to save him.1' The reason why more people die of cancer now-days is because the aver­ age life has been extended to 58 years, at which period the body cells are be­ ginning to wear out, and offer leas re­ sistance to the cancer germ. Formerly twenty-five, years was the average span o f’ life, for a man. We do not have pestilance nowdays to wipe out people by thousands. Accord­ ing to Dr, Mayo, a ' man sould be examined twice a year to see whether he has the incipient advances o f any disease. WHITE OR BROWN EGGS . The American people lead in many respects the nations o f the world.. For pecularities Americans also have set 1 record. Take for instance the use o f eggs. How many people in this section would discriminate between the white or brown shelled eggs ? Few if any. We have two markets in this count­ ry that have their individual colors for' eggs and no other will do. For in­ stance New York City must have its white shelled eggs. The consumers want them and are willing to pay a bit more, and o f course dealers see that a discriminate market gets what it wants. New York City consums 7,058,322 eggs every day on the aver­ age. The average daily cost is around $300,000. 1Up in Boston where beans and cul- .ure predominate there is a fondness for nothing but the brown shelled egg •and white will not do.. . c e d a r v il l e h i g h d i v i d e s DOUBLE B.

As. state motor vehicle inspector. Bob knew exactly what was wrong with the license number. Bo far the .state had not Issued number plates over seven hundred thousund. A close scrutiny showed that the number should have read; six hundred and eight thousand, nine hundred and elglity-slx. The number plate was up­ side down, “ Must think we’re all dum’b e llsr Bab grinned, pressing tiie throttle and bringing the rudlator of his car paral­ lel with that of the other.

Fat chance of glttln’ him!” Fenny Thomas bad long been sus­ pected as the. leader of an organized band of automobile thieves; so far au- it thorlties bad'fulled to get Uie goods on him. “Lorrty," Bob breathed. “ Send me a motor cop or something The driver of the Dalpln eased up on the throttle; Bub did likewise, fol­ lowing and keeping liis front wheels Just to thd rear of the Dalpin’s big nickled bumper., Bob’s position as motor vehicle in­ spector called for the wearing of no uniform; lie ’ was . an officer of the state, sworn to make arrests wherever tie found Infractions against the state motor vehicle laws. ■ As they sped along he began to. won­ der If the showdown, or whatever it was was going to be, would make him miss Ids date with the girl—but, if he could only get the Dalpln Into u traf­ fic jam, any way to get Ills hands on Thomas—l^e’d show ’em that Steve Brndte wasn’t the only bird that could take a chance. Suddenly, the driver of the Dalpln signaled for a left turn—Bob’s Ups became a straight line; he gripped the steering wheel—deliberately driving Ills car Into the Dalpln. “Crash—Bang!” The right front wheel df Bob’s car, hooked in the bumper of the Dalpln, struck the button In the center of the street and collapsed.' The tire blew out with a roar! The Dalpln camp to a skidding stop,' its driver snorting: “What ther-” , “My fault, Old Man.” Smiling, Bob shouted to make himself heard above the noise of the traffic. “ Sleep at the. switch; didn’t get your signal till too late—no brakes!

Thomas brought the gear shift into neutral. “ Sorry It happened, Old Man.” Bob smiled apologetically, “Hero’s a ten- spot to fix your bumper !” He extend* ed the bill. Grinning, Thomas took the money, “Hard luck for you !" “Yeali !” Bob sobered. “Gotta data too—three-block walk Is gonna make me late—could—I ride a couple of blocks down the street with you?" Thomas peered Into Bob's lean face. He suw nothing to excite his sus­ picion. “Get I» !” Smiling, Bob opened the door tnd climbed into the seat beside him. “Grr-reeck 1” The gear lever went Into second and with the dick, as It snapped back into high, Thomas brought his hand back to the steering wheel. Then—Thomas felt something Jab him In the ribs and he heard Bob's voice rasping In his ear; “Keep your hands on the wheel an’ your eyes on the road an' drive for Ceritral station—an’ hit the bumps easy if you don't want this grit to do some evacuatin’ 1” Cursing and trembling, Thomas obeyed, not even trusting a glance at the something, cohered by Bob's coat tall, that dug Into his ribs; In fact he did not even remonstrate when Boll relieved him of his own shining weapon, and he wes still trembling as he led the way Into the station out as lie stepped to tiie desk, he teed Bob, sneering: “Y're a wise Dick awrlght, but if you’d ’a’ took that gat outa my ribs, and give me a chance—I'd 'a' sure give you the gaff!” “Yeah I” Bob grinned, thrusting out his fist and almost touching the nose of the sneering crook with the stubbed end of a crippled Index finger, “May­ be you think I didn’t take « chance, this little old stub, with your imagina­ tion—did the trick—my .gat was home on the dresser 1" ■w rlD IMVuRit WR& m WML Something Fierce The Fight Promoter—They tell Me your new middleweight is a tiger In the ring.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—Fruit-Bearing Live*. VOUNO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—Union With ChrlpL Under the beautiful allegory o f the vine and the branches Jesus set forth the spiritual oneness o f Himself and His disciples. 1. The Relationship o f Jesus and the Father to the Disciple (w . 1-3). - 1. Jesus the Source o f the Disciple’s Life (v. i>. He is the true vine. Through the Incarnation Jesus Identi­ fied Himself with humanity, and by virtue of His atoning death and resur­ rection it is possible for the believer to be a partaker o f His llfe so that bo- tween the disciple and. his Lord there Is a community of life. As the vine pours Its life Into the,branch, so Christ pours His life Into the believer. Our sulvatlon is eternal life because it is ihe life of the eternal Son In us. 2. The Father Has in His Hands the Discipline of the Disciple (V. 1). The “Father Is the husbandman.” Just as the culture of the vine Is In the hands of a husbandman so the discipline of the believer's life' is in the hands of the Father. In tbl$-disciplinary proc­ ess he j (a) Removes the unfruitful branch (v.•2). .He does not take the trouble to prune the fruitless branch. The nominul church member, the mere pro­ fessor, He removes. (b) Purges the fruitful branch that It may produce mere fruit (v, 2 ), He restrains our natural tendencies and desires in order that Hie virtues of the Lord, the fruits of, the Spirit, may shine forth, 3. The Instrument -Iby which the pruning Is accomplished is Jesus’ words (v. 8). The disciples already were cleansed by Christ’s words, for Judas the traitor had been cast out If the believer’s life Is to be fruitful In character and service the pruning knife, Christ’s Words, must be Intelli­ gently and regularly applied. (I. The Conditions of Fruit Bearing (vv. 4-7). The supreme object in pruning, the culture of the vine, le fruit 1. Abiding in Christ (w , 4-8). As the branches draw sap and life from the vine, so believers must abide In Christ, from whom they derive their purity, strength and Wisdom. Indeed, It Is a mutual abiding, the disciple In Christ and Christ in the disciple. It is Christ’s life ^expressing itself through the believer- The olie thus In­ dwelt by Christ will bear touch, fruit So great Is the displeasure df the Lord with lifeless, unfruitful branches that they are to be “ cast forth/’ “ withered;!' even burned (v, 8). 2. Christ's Words Abide In Us (v. 7). So mighty Is the power of the one who abides in Christ and In whom His words abide that Heaven can with­ hold no gift from him. , .III. The. Blssssd Issue of a Fruitful Life (vv. 8-17). 1. The Glorification of the Father (v. 8) . Through much fruit-bearing, the Father will be glorified (Matt, 5:1,8), 2. Credentials o f Dlsclpleshlp (v. 8). The only way to prove that one Is a child of God is to manifest the charac­ teristics of God in one's acta and serv­ ice, 3. Abiding in Christ’s Love and Keeping His Commandments (w . 9, 10), The way to abide In Christ's love is to keep His commandments. The one who neglects the words o f Christ is destitute o f His love. It Is folly to talk of being In the love of Christ wlille disobeying His teachings. 4. Fulness of Joy (r. 11), The way to have fulness of Joy is to have Christ's Joy in us. 5. Loving one another (vv. 12, 18). The one who abides In Christ and has the life of Christ flowing Into him will live a life of love, will love his fellow- man, especially his brother in Christ 0. Friends of Christ (vv. 14, 15), Christ’s friends do whatsoever He commands. Being thus obedient He takes Us Into His Confidence and makes known unto us the Heavenly Father’s will, 7. Perpeutal Fruit-Bearing in Love, With Power in Prayer <w, 16, 17). Physical Vigor Physical weakness Is not a sign of spiritual power. All other things considered, the man or woman who enjoys physical vigor will be able to accomplish more than those who are puny and 111.
