The first indication o f what was to come, started in the rather easy fash­ ion In which the JocaFboys disposed o f the Bellbrook team by a 22-16 score, Saturday afternoon was the real test, Boss by virtue o f two vic­ tories had reached the semi-finals. Twice this season had Cedarville and Boss met in. contest, ending the sea- sop with a victory for each. The ‘V ise boys"'had it all Boss. A t the crack o f the gun Cedarville, fighting as if defeat meant death, tore into the ranks o f their opponents to pile-up a 10-2 lead at the, quarter. That Boss was a dangerous foe was shown by their spirited come-back. The initial half standing 15-12 in favor o f Boss. A t the second half the - fans were treated to the ,greatest exhibition oi the , basket-shooting pastime ever shown op local floors, Jones, Jackson and Paxon, the “ Three Musketeers’ o f the Bed and White, so completely outplayed their opponents that it seemed attimes.the local lads were toying with them. The three sharp­ shooters mentioned, collected IS points p f the fijal score, 24-18. Regardless o f the outcome o f tin afternoon game even the most ardent Cedarville fans never dreamed o f sue! a climax.as the final game, In the morning game Bath had trbun&d .Beavercreek^ registering baskets* from every angle o f the court; well timed passes went into waiting hands fo r Count after Count.

The .mailer Boss girls, who were the op­ ponents of Bath, had no chance, al- hough they fought hard at all times; .’he final score' was 28-22.* The Boss girls eliminated the Ge- .larville .girls in the afternoon by a 31-14 score.

These articles are spon­ sored by the Ohio Association far the 'VVelfare o f the Mentally Sick, which has hut one objective, namely, more scientific and more humane treatment o f mentally sick patients in state hospitals and the .rapid rehabilitation of these unfortunates, ft The great medical profession has fo r many centuries realized that the most „ efficient -treatment o f any disease is first the removal o f the Cause o f the disease and then such treatment as will build up the resis­ tance o f the patient. Treatment in any case is simply that* o f assisting nature to do the work. The treatment o f the. mentally sick is dependent Upon the sdme underly­ ing principles as the treatment o f any other illness, It depends, upon discov •ring the cause and then treating it,’ a t the same time doing everything within bounds o f reason to raise body% resistance, DID NOT KNOW THE -CAUSEff The treatment o f this class o f pa- trtant in the past has been handicap­ ped because we did not know the eause. We thought the cause was such things as poor heredity, stress in the form o f worry, fear, fright, love religion, war, ‘business reverses, ■ *te, We how know that such suppos­ ed causes were in reality merely symptoms o f the disease as fever is a symptom o f pneumonia. 1 f h « real causes behind mental sick- m about the same as the real- causes behind rheumatism, neuritis, neuralgia, etc., some toxic or. poison­ ous material manufactured in some portion o f the body and traveling Ijp the brain via the blood stream, The treatment then resolves itself into dia covering the seat o f the toxic mater-, ial and correcting this cause. So long as we thought that mental sickness Wns due to such unbeatable things as were previously thought to be the causes we naturally could pro­ vide no better type o f treatment than custodial or asylum care, which Con­ sists o f locking-the patient away from the world, three meals a day and a guard to watch him. As soort, how­ ever, as we realize the real causes of mental sickness we can then provide the appropriate treatment which will be the same as accorded aiiy patient in atty general hospital, PURPOSE OF ASSOCIATION The Ohio Association for the Wet- 01 , fare of \ the Mentally Sick has as one o f its purposes providing auch per­ sonnel and equipement in every state hospital in Ohio as Will permit' the superintendent to treat the cases as they should be treated. It will re­ quire additional medical and nursing personnel, occupational therapy and social service workers to adequately meet the demands o f the occasion.

The other with great kind­ liness wa& holding before him an op- ; portunity of laying his burden down. The one was rich, but was dissatis­ fied with the empty life he was living, He felt himself- worthy o f better things and longed to* be doing them. The other was a man o f the open air, of plain garb, but o f strength and discrimination. He looked deep into the anxious soul o f this one who had come running to him and loved him fo r his manliness, and yearned to help his restless spirit find itself and be happy. The young mart o f the unsatisfied ambition had been strangely thrilled as he listened to the one into whose eyes he looked,'talking to. the people about life and love and home and lit­ tle children and the father in heaven. Here was one who Could help him. Fearful o f loosing him, the young ruler had. come running with his ap­ peal. “ Good Master, what shall I do that I may inheriC eternal life ? ” The Master, recognizing hie sincer­ ity , met him with the challenge: “ Go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and come, take up the cross and follow me,” The Master’s challenge strikes him like a blow in the face. He stands ir­ resolute. The Master, with the love light in his eyes, longs to help him. Is he man enough to meet the chal­ lenge ? What did it mean ? It can be summarized in these words: In the Master’s challenge ’ he offered the young man: A Cross, A Career, A Character. A CROSS “ Come take up the cross,” What did the Master mean ? He seemed to say to him—-with all your nobility o f character and your ettgaging person­ ality and your financial and social standing—you are unhappy because you are worthy o f better things. Your noble spirit revolts At your selfish manner o f living, Rise Above these things; put them away! “ Go Sell whatsoever thbu hast and give to the poor and then thou Shalt, have trees- ure in heaven.” . 1 /■' a- •. i i* A * hv • ■■V ,v 4 , ■' ‘ fj -• ' .' ■ ’ ' d •' ; \ yV wVr },l'w A j >' 6 A tf- /' d-< , | . t>;V lf-4 ,/ ' i!V ■l • 1 . .'ijv ■' ■. , “ t- ,,:' *.,YV4< ’■ . .W a ' ■ ■ , ■ , J.- |• ; 1* * J.- J fri » ' f 1' h ‘T a+'i -uv •' 1• (•$ .ri ‘5. 11(. a “ ’ ft' ■„ \ n ' •-’ .L * , * i . i jl„ • " m ; •4 ft ’ d w *5 •A. •N■f -T His cross was the heart-breaking necessity of**putting obt o f his life the ' thing that “stoOd between him and his • Lord. With the young ruler it was hit ‘money. .With you and me it is-prob- 1 ably something else, / , ” Jesus asked him to put away his . possessions because fie cpuld not serve him with them. Only the things that do us ‘harm and hinder us from doing good wili be withheld from them that walk uprightly.” And what we give is nothing to what we get. “ He that spared not his own son but delivered him for us all; how shall he not with him freely give us all things.” In the final appeal to purposeful' people it is not self-interest or pleas- * ure hut it is the glory o f sacrifice Which rises to meet the challenge of Jesus. “ Come take up the cross and follow mol” A Career—“ Follow me.” Jesus Christ offered the young man a satisfying career, He proposed to settle for him and all young people that disturbing question o f what to do' and -what to be in the world. It was necessary for JesuS to have a fixed, goal toward which he was moving, so it is necessary for us, who would follow him to have a deter­ mined goal. It was a career o f service that Jesus offered the young ruler. A career like Ins own o f doing good and being good. Youtjg men and young Women follow where Jesus Christ leads and he Will give you something satisfying to do. Ho will point out work fo r you in places where 4)ou never dreamed o f it before. Follow him in the every*day witness o f the winsome life. Follow him in his warfare against wrong. Follow him ih daily reading o f the Bible and’ prayer, Follow him in the winning o f the. lost! “ Come take up the cross and follow me,” A Character-“ I f thou Wilt be perfect” Jesus offered to the young ruler a character which would stand the test of life’s crises and decisions. What is character? Character is the power to make right decisions, t One o f the saddest pictures o f. all literature is thja splendid young man turning away from Jesus Christ, sor­ rowfully leaving the only one who could help him. Oh, young men and women do not turn away, from Jesus Christ iu the hour o f derision. “ Come take u p ,the .croft* and follow me.” .'i »: ■ A \ !• ' * % K Z J T
