Fall and Edward L. Doherty have finally be brought to trial. At last they must fate the criminal relegations growing out of the oil scandals that are almost ancient his­ tory.. ■ v . The mills of justice grind slow, even though they grind exceedingly small. Entirely^apalt from a considera­ tion of the guilt or inpocense of Fall nd Ppheny, it is. long past time Tor hem*to be haled into court. While their clever attorneys were taking ad­ vantage of every technicality in 'the law promising to delay the cares dur­ ing the last two md one-half years, the court system of this coutnry h$$ been on trial before the public. Whenever strong political or finan­ cial influences ere brought to bear to protect the rich and powerful who arc ihsrged with some offense, the eyes of the public follow that case closely; They have been watching the Fall and Doheny easel' And. whenever in sUch cases, delays and postponements, result, as they have in this, the faith of the people in the courts is undermined. It is a sad thing for any country'when its people come to believe the courts !mete out punishment only to the poor and powerless while the rich and the powerful offenders escapes. Anything that helps to bring about this opinion in any way is a hinderance to good government. THE OHIO CRIME SITUATION Women are wrecking the House of David. Old Benjamin Purnell, founder of the peculiar colony at Benton Harbor, Mich., finds himself under arrest am' facing charges which may end his career as a prophet, all because- he violated his own tenets and began to toy too much with female members of his house. Purnell called himself the ^Seventh Messenger of the Kingdom o f God” and set up the House of David. At one time he had 750 persons in his fold. If you had property you could get in the colony, by turning everything over to the House of David. Iu return the House of David agreed to provide you with shelter, clothing and food. Purnell ruled with an iron hand. He issued- a proclamation that members must not touch moat, tobacco, or liquor and placed hit tabbp on normal, mar­ ried life. ■. Three years ago secrets began to filter out of the House of David. It was noiSed about that Purnell had as many as fifty .young girls'In his Household. Investigations were start­ ed and the King made his-escape, He has been found arid Is under heavy bond. Some of his women., converts became dissatisfied and the wrecking of the House of David was undsv wqy. FyrrieU’s ideas of marriage were enough to close.the place but the authorities awaited plenty of -proof for when the women-inmates get to talking there is . telling where old Ben will find himself, The daily press carries Stories each day which indicates that the marriage vow is not the sacred obligation •it in to See Santa Santa Will Be Here Every Day Until Christmas The Christmas Store And the headquarters for Santa, who w ill be here every day to welcome .the child­ ren.

Another brother finding the ice was broken said “ Amen”. From that on the meetingnvas devoted to hear­ ing charges against the deacon. The dove of peace hovered about when an-; other brother suggested that in the, interest of harmony, the.meeting ad- .oum. The next day a friend of this church deqeon, hearing what had taken place the night before, colled on the editor* to see if then anyway that the report of the meeting, which was being dis­ cussed among church members, would be kept out of the paper. The editor, to promote, harmony, not having pre­ vious knowledge o f 1 what was under discussion^readily agreed. ThAparson continued his charge unmolested. A few months later when in another city the editor had his eyes opened.

The public must, have more of a part than merely shaking the head of disapproval and j letting it go at that.

So it appears that there will be time for a number of generations to carry on the accumulated knowledge and folly of their fathers and to make experiments of their own—the sumof which process k known as progress. Whether the scientific gentleman may be mistaken a few months one way or the other docs not much matter. The importance of the statement lies in its psychological effect. The idea that the world will spin on, bearing countless genera^ tions of changing men, is in'itself a stimulating one. The old conception of a world that would end in a few years was a p&ralyring otte. I f the world would surely end in a short time/ men of former times asked themselves, why keep anv accurate weofd of history? Why carry on extensive scientific ex. Iri&MQtft. WU7, bother ftbbtiF changing social Conditions greatly? \vny long-time proiects of im­ provement when there would be no time to complete them? ■■, Too idea that the wrld will go on, to all practical purposes, for- ever, tends to turn men’s minds to the problems of making it a better place to live in. . It will forep them to face the problems of getting along am­ icably with oiie another, which moans the elimination of war. It will force them to turn their attention toward the combatting of disease and the installing of new sanitary improvement* td safe­ guard health. . The same scienlist says the earth has been in existance about Hvo triHion years, or something like one-five hundred thousand o f the length of time it will continue beyond us. This makes us realize that civilization is just beginning, that mankind is taking the first faltering steps on a long career. It mitigates the -despair occasioned by the child-mindedness of the crowd, the lack of progress in mankind and the insanity of the lute war. . . The idea that the world will continue indefinitely is humbling, stimulating and encouraging. It may inspire awe, but it will never stifle Into stagnation m did 'he- conception of the wdrid as a temporary thing in which the end iv«a eternally imminent, 5 . . \• —of— RANGES and N o Engine Fumed in Buick Closed Cars! a In the 1927 Buick, the new VacuumVentilatorpulls en­ gine fumes and gases from the crankcase and ejects thtm outsidetkecar. % This vital new Buick inw piOTcment does away with noxiousodors.Itaddsgreater luxury and pleasure to ekv closedcaroperation.
