NOT WHAT IT FORMERLY WAS With Decoration Day at hand,we cannot help hut look back to the time 25 years ago when it was observed with as much of the religious spirit as the Sabbdfch. Of recent years the day has been commercialized for sports and pleasure. It is almost im­ possible to get a crowd together to review history and keep fresh in our minds the accomplishments of the brave sons who have in times past made possible the strength and security of the government of today. Interest is lacking more and more each year and this should not be. Decoration Day is the one. Memorial Day of the year that should he observed in the, spirit in which its founders intended. Spor §, picnics and all forms of pleasure promises to blot out the day in the future unless the younger generation is impressed in a far different light than it is today.* UNCLE SAM IS DOING HIS PART FAITHFULLY ' Last week a justice of peace and one constable indicted in the Federal court for conspiracy found, themselves wound in a net of their own weaving, and hoth plead guilty* rather than stand for trial and attempt to fool a jury to be acquited. Two other constables stood trial and were each found guilty on three separate counts. The justice court was one of the com­ mercial courts we hear so much about. Courts operated for profit to squires and constables, and not for enforcing the lav/ in the name of the state and for the protection of society. I t is almost certain these men will get heavy prison sentences. They .should, have the limit and no mercy should be shown those who are nothing more than impostors. The official that is*guilty of such charges should have a heavier fine and longer prison term than anyother violator. , It is the conviction of such officers from commercialized courts that will create more respect for the eighteenth amend­ ment than with any five boot leggers behind the bars. Raiding places doing an illegal business and then the officers selling the liquor themselves to enrich their own pocket book, is a worse crime than that committed by the ordinary bootlegger. The United States Supreme Court has outlawed that kind of a court but those who work the dry game for. profit and try to play on the'temperment of the public that for the good of the cause, such courts are necessary, are only breaking down the direct interest,of temperance people* who conscientiously uphold the eighteenth* amendment and have no financial profit in so doing. .There is no question what;the Supreme Court will do when the law to reestablish the commercialized court in Ohio gets to it in proper form. The Supreme Court is not in politics and for that reason will render decisions as it has done in the past., having n’a interest in either wets or drys that use the issue for a living. IP NOT ON OUR RA IL ING LIST SEND FORCIRCULAR WHAT WILL DR.! McCHESNEY DO? ? . “ What Will Dr. McChesney D o ? ? " is a question that has been* asked us many times each day since the announcement if, the Herald some weeks- ago ,of the offer made him of a pro­ fessorship in Lane Seminary. As stated at that time no decisiot Would be announced until next month as, to accepting or reject­ ing the offer, . Friends of Cedarville College realize that the. institution at this time, is where it heeds Dr/ McChesney’s personality and in­ fluence as much or more thanrin the years past. The institu­ tion has great, promises for thd next few years, and we all must admit that the fime is hear t c l profit from his personal efforts and keep things moving. ‘ ' That President McChesney has made a great personal sac­ rifice to build up the institution no one can deny. More than opce in the past he has turned against tempting offers that hfs life ambition to see Cedarville College grow in numbers and in­ fluence, could be realized But few men would stand as loyal to an institution as has Dr. M&Chesney when it meant not only a personal financial sacrifice but the opportunity to do greater things in a wider field of opportunity. When not in the class room, no doubt his first choice of any duty* about the College, he has Mad to work under a burden­ some strain as executive director of the school. A t times he has performed a duty that few exfeCutivescwould undertake. In this case the Dr. knew that finances Would not permit a tremendous amount of detail being delegated to another under his- direc tipn. He he has sacrificed his strength and physical well being for the benefit of the school. Cedarville College owes much more to D r .. McChesney than it can repay. The community, as well as Greene county, owes much and it would be regretted on the part of all should Dr. McChesney announce that he would accept the Cincinnati offer. In one way he would'profit personally by leaving, The salary is tempting. His great love for classroom work would be gratified. He would be relieved-of many hours of hard work that is required of an executive. As far as we know Dr. McChesney has not said that he is desirous of leaving Cedarville. He is endowed with the self­ same traits of other men. In or out of professions. The new offer is Worth Very serious consideration on his part for it no doubt would mean more to him than what could bejneasured from;a a financial standpoint. , ■ . W e are certain we voice the sentiment of the friends of Cedarville College in insisting that he remain here but not at a Continued sacrifice such as he has made. The College au­ thorities should makje an effort to interest Dr, McChesney in* remaining with the institution. The community has a more im­ portant duty in stepping up and backing the college authorities to make it certain that Dr. McChesney can remain as president. This community, and friends c * the college over the county, can do something. What are we willing to do?
