The recent suit in court between j Mr, Harry Townsley and The Ex­ change Bank is a very unfortunate thing not only for the Bank but for the community. The community needs the bnnk and the bank needs the com­ munity support, else we would have no bank. i Such a suit is very unusual and of course has interested the people here to a wide extent. Public smypathy is almost unanimous in support o f •Mr; Townsley, who no doubt was tricked and made believe that his note would be paid. I f he had not had confidence in Mr. Smith he never would have asked Mr, Frame to leave the money at the bank, nor would he ever have endorsed.the note and left it there for collection. Mr, Townsley, and Mr. Frame could have met else­ where and settled their ‘affairs and Mr. Townsley would have been satis­ fied and the .'hank no worse o ff than today with the judgment standing a- gainst it. • A square deal can mean nothing else than Mr. Townsley having full credit for what is due him, The public •annot he convinced that there will be justice by attempting to. square -the Frame debt^to the bank with some other person's money. > We know banking rules are rigid and wide in scone as to operation and ;hat the state law is'm ore to protect she bank than the patron in such a controversy, but. the laws and rules do not govern public sentiment, Unfortunately the bank has under­ gone a severe test the past few nonths. During recent changes we urged through these columns that the public be slow in passing judgment und that things would right themsel­ ves. The public has been loyal in the face of conditions that in most com­ munities, the directors would never have been given ah- opportunity- to make good. The public is asking that Sno person be given a square deal and: nothing else. The sooner the past few chapters of the history o f the bank are forgot­ ten, the better, for the bank and the- •onimuni’ty. It is our confident belief that this- past will be forgotten i f the directors will at. once take action to close this particular -case where it stands and prove to the Community that in ad­ dition to, hard boiled bank rules; there ,s a .place f o r the Golden Rule, the basic principal fo r/a ll laws under a; Republican form, o f government. THE BIBLE BILL PASSES ' -About the most disgraceful thing that has has happened about the leg- slativo halls in Ohio was the manner in which the Bible -bill was passed anti the dealing engaged in to make this bill a law. So fa r as the object o f the law is concerned there are few schools in this county that have not had Bible reading for years back. The law was not needed for this cobnty and any- view we express cannot be considered in opposition to the merits of the bill. The measure was sponsored by the Klan, we feat not so much from any Moral lesson that might' be gained by Bible reading as it could’ be flaunted in the faces o f certain religious sects which the Klan claims to oppose. But this is not the view that we want to discuss at this time. The Bible bill passed the House and was held up in the Senate by leaders from the large cities that are relig­ iously opposed to the Klan or repre­ sent a citizenship in their counties that probably out number Klan sym­ pathizers. Here is where the most vicious pol­ ities took a hand. The public utility interests to keep the control of a state commission, made a deal whereby the Bible bill would be passed if Governor Donahey's hands were tied on appoint­ ments and thus keep the desired com­ mission in the hands o f corrupt in­ terests. Many of those religiously op­ posed to the Klan voted with the very element they were at first so strongly ( pposed to. The Bible bill passed and the Klan gets the credit for it. The utility interests will control the com­ mission that is robbing the public in allowing unjust ratss. The public is to suffer and the Bible lias been used by the corrupt interests to pillage the people. A nice situation indeed. What will Gov. Donahey do? Some say- he will veto the Bible bill. The legislature is not in session and cannot pass it over his veto. Others sr'.y he will let it become a law. If ho \e;.jt-, It he will strike a body blow at using such a measure for cm rapt intent. Il 1e allows it to become a law either by signature or not, the stigma will then 1e on the legislature for permitting < t-uch a deal.

YOUNG PEOPLE 4NP ADULT TOP­ IC—Character and Message of Stephen. 1. Stephen the Dg^cbn (6:1-8). The early church was threatened with disruption over suspected par­ tiality In the distribution of alms. Thus we see that as soou ns the church had relief from external troubles, diffi­ culties arose from glthln. A , congre­ gational meeting was culled, and the ease was placed before the church, which was Instructed to select seven Spirit-filled men. of flood reputation to administer the temporalities of the church, thus giving ithe apostles the necessary time for!prayer- and the ministry pf God’s word. II, Stephen Before the Council (6:9-15). ! The success o f this movement soon came to be noted bjp the enemies of Christ. • 1. Disputing With Stephen (vv. 0-10). Certain foreign-speaking Jews took the lead In. this Controversy. Perhaps the fact that Stephen was a Greek Jew provoked them to act. He was more than a match for them while ilie debate .was carried along the tines of reason and Scripture. Beaten along these lines they had him arrested and brought before the. council, 2. Charged With Blasphemy (vv. 11-14), •They trumped up this charge pnd endeavored to supfiprt. it byI secretly* finding and^liiduciag men to perjure themselves In thefr testimony. Stephen allowed in his preaching that God’s purpose is progressive, and that the policy. Instituted by Moses should bo superseded by the new faith sipce It . was the culmination of what Moses began. He* showed that the old dis­ pensation would be superseded by thr new, and that the church would corar out into tile liberty of Christ. Chris tianity did not destroy Judaism but caused it to blossom forth Into the glory of the new order. i 3. Stephen’s Face Transfigured (v 15). , , :- He was s,o completely filled with Christ that as he saw the angry mob and realized how soon he would be violently dealt with aiid pass Into the presence of the Lord, his face shone as the face of an angel. It was the glory of Christ shining through him. III, Stephen’s Defense (7:1-53). In refuting their charge he showed , by the history of God’s .dealing with i the Jews that they had always resisted Illm. Therefore their attitude was be­ cause of their unwillingness to move forward with the divine purpose. As Indicated by Dr. Stiller, four points 'stand out In his defense: 1. God’s dealing with the ' Jews showed progress. The end was not reached by a single leap, but by grad­ ual stages. 2. The temple was not the only holy place. God appeared at different places and at different times. 8. Israel invnrlbly opposed God as He’ tried to lead them on. 4. He allowed his loyalty to Moses by constantly referring to him. IV, 8t«phen Stortsd (7:54-60). His words were too much for them so they gnashed upon him with their teeth, a ■ ■ 1. He Looked Steadfastly Into Heaven (v, 53). Instead of looking About Upon his murderers In their raging „fury, he looked up to heaven. This was the secret of his calm, If he had looked about him. he might have been afraid, 2. lie Saw the Glory of God (v. 55). A vision of God's glbry can only be Seen by those who are loyal to Him, even unto death. 3. He Saw Jesus Standing on the Right Hand of God (vv. 05-50). The fact that Jesus was standing shows that He was actually.interested in the suffering of His faithful witness. 4. They Cast Him Out of the City and Stoned Him (vv. 58-59), 5. His Prayer (v. 00). He kneeled down* and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, lay not this sin to their c h a r g e ,H o w like the prayer Of Jesus on the cross! Christ so com-' pletely filled him that l»o could thus act, 6. He Fell Asleep (v» 00). The Christian's death Is only ft sleep. This sublime scene must hnv© vitally affected Saul, who was consenting un­ to ids death, Worth Remembering Over and over again wo need to comfort nnd strengthen ourselves with the remembrance that there Is a very wonderful, enduring quality to tho things that are good and dean and aoundandhonest. r g m r COUPLE O l 'isssssiotjn\A THE I ■YA ' M . • LV presen! will OE:r month thems .
