No mor« graphic description of the evils of the wlneblbber has ever been given, it portrays In the roost im* preseive manner the miseries that at tach to the drunkard’s life, 1. The awful pain which causes one to cry put, *'01i!" * BJany Indeed are the pains which men suffer because of strong drink. Bodily Ills Innumerable can be traced to Its evil Influence, •2. The bitter remorse which causes one to cry out, “Alas!” • Many are the expressions of bitter regret which come dally from the Ups o f the drunkard. Sometimes it is the sorrow o f disgrace, loss of manhood and self-respect Sometimes it Is the sorrow o f poverty of the Individual and his fapally clothed in rags and half starved. Sometimes It is the sor row o f following a broken-hearted wife to her grave and seeing his chil dren scattered, among strangers, * 3. Contention, strife and Quarrel Ing. ' !■ . Much of the fighting among men Is directly caused by their passions being inflamed by-Strong drink. The drunk en man is always ready for a fight, He takes offense ns well ris- gives offense. He not only has these from without, but he has struggles within.. His conscience and his appetite are warring with each other. . 4. Babblings and complainings. The wlneblbber complains of every thing, Ill-luck, broken fortune, ruined health, loss of friends, o f fate and of God. 5. Wounds without a cause. These are wounds which might have been avoided from fights in which a Sober man W°ul<i not have engaged and from accidents which are purely " the result of Intoxication. 0.

The Attitude Enjoined (v. 31). Look not at It, Do not put your- ' self in the way of temptation. The only safe attitude toward strong drink Is total abstinence, and the only sure way of total abstinence Is not to even look at It. . *111, The Drunkard’s Bitter End (yv, 32-35). . 1. Acute miseries (v. 32). “ It bltetb like a serpent, and stlngeth like an adder.” ■ [ ■ ‘ Strong drink, llke;,the poison of the Berpent, permeates the’ whole system and ends in the most fatnl conse quences, the bitterest sufferings and death. 2. The perversion o f the moral senses (v. 88). (1) This excitement causes the eyes to behold strange tilings. This denotes tlie fantastic images which ar& pro duced on the brain of the drunkard. Even when delirium tremens does not result, there are awful fancies which are beyond''the possibility of realiza tion. Since carant lust .always comes with wine drinking, It Is no doubt true, as the Authorized Version has It, •Thine eyes shall behold strange woro- •n.’’ (2) "Thine heart shall utter per verse things." His. moral sense being perverted, his utterances partake o f the same. He tells ties, his words cannot be believed. 8. He is Insensible to danger (v, w. The drunkard is unsteady. His brain reels to and fro, he Is foolhardy, iven as one who would He in the top o f a ship’s mast where there Is the greatest danger of falling off, 4, He is insensible to pain (V, 35). The drunkard Is utterly Ignorant of what happens to him while under the influence o f strong drink. The drunk ard has many bruises and wounds for which he cannot account. He did not realize when he received them, 6. HiS abject bondage (v, 85). After all bis sufferings, sorrow and llsappointment he goes on as a bond- llave to follow the ways of sin. & Hell at last, for no drunkard ihall enter the Kingdom of Heaven (I Cor, 6sl0)., The Rock o f Ages A sailor Ifi a shipwreck was once thrown upon a small rock, and clung •Jo It, In great danger, until the tide went down. , -"Say, Joe," asked his Wends after the rescue, "didn’t you ihake With fear?"

Cooper The Citizen The people this . year have an opportunity to ap ply the wisdom o f our fore- ‘ fathers in - choosing for governor a man whose career as a citizen o f his city, his state and his coun try has been one o f out standing achievement. Myers Y,. Cooper em bodies-all the ideals that underlie the principles o f f good citizenship. He is to day the president, o f the Ohio Council o f Churches, an organization dedicated to the purpose o f ,religious advancement. He is a deacon o f the Walnut Hills Christian C h u r c h ; a s chairman o f its building committee he raised $200,- 000 with which to build a new edifice. During the' World war, .

As Governor o f Ohio he can be depended upon to bring to t h e executive chair the same principles of citizenship which have made him an outstanding figure in every civic and public enterprise w i t h which he has been identi fied. Cooper The Friend o f Agriculture Time was when the. far mer paid scant attention to the problems o f state gov ernment. He felt that he could best serve his state by attending his plow, and he left the problems and policies, o f government to other hands. •*, But o f late years taxa tion, has become more bur densome, other problems o f agriculture have in creased, and the farmer has realized thft necessity o f his day in court. Farmers o f Ohio today have, the opportunity to elect a governor whose in terest in agriculture was inherited at h i s birth. Myers Y. Cooper was born and reared on a farm in the hills o f Newton town ship, Licking county. In his early days he learned the problems and vicissi tudes o f rural life. His interest in agricul ture led him into the Hamilton County Agricul tural society, o f which or ganization he is now the president. He< is also president o f the Ohio Pair M a n a g e r s ’ Association with an enrollment o f 1600 members, a post he has held for 10 years. He is responsible f o r a la w bringing agriculture t o the boys and girls in the public schools. He owns and operates a 820-acre farm m Butler county— one o f the model farms o f the state. What Mr. Cooper h a s done for the advancement o f agriculture in his pri vate life, he will, do as gov ernor o f Ohio.

Cooper The Business Executive The state of Ohio, with capital upwards o f $50,- 000,000, backed by assets and a reserve running into billions o f d o l l a r s in natural resources, fertile farm lands, thriving in dustries a n d successful business enterprises, is one o f the biggest corporations in the worm, with upwards o f 6,000>Q00 stockholders. This corporation holds its biennial stockholders’ meeting on November 2, when it will elect an exe cutive, and every qualified . voter is entitled to express his preference . fo r th e ; directing head o f this gi- • gantic corporation. i The; Republican party presents for this office Myers Y. Cooper, who, after more thail a quarter o f a century o f business activity, stands out as a man with unusual ability as an organizer, and an executive whose business judgment has fitted him for this all important chair <i o f executive authority. ] He is president o f the $ Hyde Park Lumber Co., o f ' the Hyde Park Savings j Bank, the Norwood Na- l tional Bank, the Sterling | Lumber Co., and the Ray- $ mond Realty Co. His con- £ tribution to Hyde Park is h outstanding, h e having I built over 2000 homes in § this section alone. j g Being a sincere believer §. in practical economy as a * result o f its application to | his own successful enter- | prises, Myers Y. Cooper ft4 can be relied upon as gov- % emor to apply the same L principles to governmental $ business, with the result o f b e t t e r administration, ..... cy, ‘ $ greater efficien , lower operating costs and the re sultant decrease in the burden o f taxation. Cooper The Workingman *s Friend Labor is the great source from which nearly all, if not all, human comforts and necessities are drawn. Here in Ohio we have a monument to labor in a system, o f compensation fo r injured workmen which has. become the model fo r many other states. Myers Y. Cooper has. repeatedly stated his unqualified be lief in our state system of workmen’s compensation, and that he will strive to strengthen and solidify it in every way possible. Mr. Cooper’s relation ship, through a. quarter of a century, with t h o s e whom he has employed, has left a record that is spotless. It has merited praise from employer and employe alike. In 25 years o f close and intimate re lationship with workmen, wherein t h e organized trades have been the media through which his personal endeavors were accomp lished, Mr. Cooper has not had a single labor dis pute. One-third o f the men employed by him are the owners o f their own homes. Thousands have been the beneficiaries o f the plan originated by him provid ing for the purchase o f a home on the rental pay ment basis. Workmen in the fields o f industry find in M r. Cooper a man on whom they c a n depend f o r honest, straight - forward treatment. Mr. Cooper has had the endorsement o f labor or ganizations and leading labor journals because of his relations with wage earners in his home com munity. Elect Myers Y .
