It was largely the pro and con over the bil just passed requiring revaluation o? real estate every six years. The question o f non-taxables enter­ ed in the discussion to a large extent One o f the participants was strong­ ly in favor o f classification o f proper­ ty for taxation, such a measure hav­ ing been defeated by a referendum vote a few years ago. The second gentleman was a public official and was defending the six year revalua­ tion measure, in that all property was now down fo r valuation much less than the owners- would take fo r it. He included the city skyscrapper, the city and village Home and the farm as well. - Both men argued the question from different angles, and ench proved to be a match fo r the other. The classificationist took comfort in the new valuation bill as it would unload the tax burden on all kinds of real estate for each succeeding six years would require more tax money. The public official admitted much on this point. The third party who had listened attentively asked permission to make a statement. He said: “ A fter hearing this discussion than you both must, admit that the six year re-valu-1 ation bill is a new method o f forcing, single tax. The classificationist said | it probably could be construed so but the real estate people refused to ac­ cept the fairest plan of. alii classifica­ tion o f property." The public official said the cities and schools had to have more money. With him it was not a question of how, when or where it came from. There is no question hut that with a revaluation of real estate every six yqars, We are nearing single or land tax. It is with much pride that Greene county’ s representative, R. D. William son refused to vote for this bill. WE DIDN'T MIND IT MUCH Would be censors of literature do not fsre so web us they would like? in this country, f:>r nm infrequently the cottas full to be shocked by boohs which have been made tho objects of hope­ ful attack. Over In Engined the pro­ prieties arc more meticulously pro­ tected—sometimes—and one of -the times was when the editor of a Lou­ don periodical was sentenced to prison for four months and to pay a Hue of {250 because he had printed a book review quoting several par.riages from in American novel. That novel has ;<?en severely criticized here, too, but ho assaults upon It failed to produce \ decree either of punlshim ut or of. oppression. Whether or not the book ■s a whole was “ Indecent” is -a ques- Jon on which opinions honestly con liffer.. Tho author and his friends .insisted that Its purpose was excellent tnd Its total effect commendable, but so much of the general Judgment as It, received pronounced the novel‘dull and uninteresting, and that, of course, Is the ultimate condemnation of any book, ft Is curious that the British court has done in this case Just what, ours have refused to do—judged single; separat­ ed passages by themselves, and not as part of a whole. The number o f great and good books that would not stand that sort of judgment Is largq If Is, however, one thing to print n book In the course of which appear passages In themselvqs ^violating accepted' pro- priedes, and to print a review which collects and presents those passages as proof of what American life has come to be. The editor who did that, o r’ allowed his reviewe” to do--It, cer­ tainly does deserve some sort of pun- kdimont, If only for his stupid unfair­ ness.

He has voted many, times, against govern­ ment increases. He says that he will not accept for his own use the increase o f $2,500 in his salary.

Applications should he directed tp the Congressman Here is. an opportunity for Civic' or­ ganizations to garner a few dollars, as our representative evidently has no Use fo r the new found income which we are told was forced on him, yet we cannot find where he openly opposed the salary increase on the floor or in a committee o f the House. Senators Fess aftd Willis have made no public offer for their increase. They say they disapproved o f it but will accept it. President Coolidge announces that he’ will give up the Mayflower as a presidential pleasure boat in that the cost of operation to the govern­ ment is burdensome and wholly un­ necessary. Tho President when he travels goes on the ordinary 'train and not a fine special in order that he could set an example fo r economy to the-country. The congressmen, 'senators, and most every other man engaged in politics permits his conscience to be guided b y his pocketbook, Reformers and uplifters are no different. Just the other day James White, former Anti Saloon League superintendent in this state was offered the Prohi- . bition commissionership in Ohio. The salary was $4,500 and all ex­ penses but he would not except un­ less the salary was made more at­ tractive. The office was important. White claims much fo r his sincerity in the prohibition movement but the $4,500 salary was no inducement. The princely salaries paid by the Anti Saloon League had put James in another class, White hfu had exper­ ience in prohibition work. Js the man foi? the place. You do not necessarily have to have $10,000 and $12,000 men to guarantee honesty in office, The White 'situation revolves it­ self into this: “ Is White more in­ terested in the monetary side of prohibition for personal gain, or the conscientious enforcement of the law?

Its entire superstructure stands or falls upon '•$ reality. It Is the grand proof that Christ was what He claimed to be, the Messiah, the Kou of God (Matt. 12:30-10;'John 2:10-21). His resurrection authenticated Ills claims, If Jesus did not rise from Joseph's tomb, He was not the Son of God, nor a true prophet (He said frequently while alive (bat He wbuld arise), neither a Savior; not even a good man, for He would then, be a falsifier. However, If He did arise, ail that He said concerning Himself Is true'. His resurrection .declared Him to be the Son of God with power (Rom. 1:4), I. The'Empty Tomb (vv. 1-10). • John does not enter into a descrip­ tion of the resurrection of Christ, but' says the tomb was empty, and* that Jesus lmd repeatedly manifested Him­ self after the tomb was found empty.

This womau out of whom Jesus lmd cast seven' demons (Mark 10:9; Luke 8:2), announced the fact of the empty tomb to Peter and John, Prompted by great love to Him for His kindness to her, .she went early to the tomb even "when It was yet dark.” "She was last at the cross, and first at the grave. She stayed longest there and was soonest here.” This woman’s love for the Master was genuine though her knowl­ edge as to His resurrection was defec­ tive. She had realized great good .at His hand, therefore she could not rest until shti had done her utmost for Illm. 2, Personal Investigation by Peter. and John (vv. 3, 10). The. news of the'empty tomb which Alary brought with breathless haste so moved .Tblm and Peter that both ran to investigate. When John came to the empty tomb he gazed into It, Imt Pe­ ter entered it. This Investigation con­ vinced them. The removal of the stone froth the sepulcher and the arrange­ ment Of the grave clothes convinced them that the enemy could not have done this. • II.

Home was nothing to her wiille her Lord was missing. Earnest love need not weep long for Jesus is found of those who love Him. She. should have been rejoicing that the grave wns empty, for the empty tomb was eloquent proof of His messlah- ship and -deity. Had His body been there she would have .had real cause for weeping. (2) Mary Questioned by the Angels (vv. 12:13). She viewed through her tears angels at the tomb who Inquired as to the cause of her sorrow. She replied, "Because they have taken away my Lord and I know not where they have laid Him." (3) Jesus Reveals Himself to Mary (vv. 14-10). She first saw the angels and then her eyes lighted upon the Lord. As soon as He Called her by name she recognized Him and fell at His feet weeping. (4) Jesus Forbade Her to Touch Him (v. 17), This showed that she was coming Into h new relationship to Him; besides there was not time for such familiarity while the disciples were In darkness, "Go tell ir)y breth­ ren," was the message she must *earry.
