T H E C E DARV I L L E HERALD KARLH BULL — ------- 1 EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Btotcrad a t the Post Office, Gedarville, Ohio, October 81,1087, as second class matter. J/RIDAY, JULY 82, 1927. A SAD FINIS TOA GOODBEGINNING. V v It is with some regret we read the announcement that the County Red Cross Chapter must drop a very important branch «£ the stfi vice that ha» in the past been rendered in the county to the unfortunate. Lack of interest in membership campaigns has reduced funds for operating and when the funds no*longer permit this service, all that can be done is to “shop up the shop” and let a worthy public service be discontinued. It is also regretable that Greene county, which boasts of its per capita wealth, one of the richest in the state, must be listed as having no active part in an organization that is headed by the President of the United States, and recognized over the entire world for benefactions to the unfortunate during both peace time and in war. There is nothing for the County Red Cross to do but submit to being, listed as a more or less inactive organization and no longer able to function inbehalf of those in the county that need first aid. The County Red Cross has performed a wonderful work. By the service of Miss Evers, as county nurse, many families are ready to testify of her humanitarian service. Her work in the many clinics, aided.by scores of men and women, she has brot sunshine and happiness to parents in score^of homes, when the sick and afflicted were put' on the road to recovery. She has been .‘a mother in many homes and her service in the .future is to be sadly missed. , Hundreds of peopte over the county will wonder why the situation is as it is. The many townships, not only met their quotas in membership but the present organization enjoyed' the largest rural membership in the history of the organization in the county. The fact that Xenia city failed to respond to the membership, call so cut the funds until relief over the county has had. to be discontinued* Xjmia city has had a large per centage of the calls for aid. During the year thus far there has been no distinction even though Xenia city failed to -give the' support .expected. Now that funds are lpw the whole county *mnst be denied a service tha t will be missed in many a worthy home. . . . 4 . > , ^ I t was very Unfortunate that another organization in Xenia attempted to put on a membership campaign last fall when the Red Cross announced its annjual membership canvass. It is well known tha t Xenia has many citizens that are interested in the Red Gross, not only in this county but the national organiza tion as well/ The issues last November were confusing to Xen- jans and the disgust over the management pf the Social Ser vice League, was so marked that interest could not be aroused in the Red Cross membership campaign. The activity of the Social Serviee campaign at the same time as the Red1Cross was ill-timed to say the least. The organization- for some time has not and1 is not now being givensaid in that city as in former years. To be plain spoken thef Social Service League the past few years has been more of a Semi political organization than one for whole-hearted relief. -This statement may be question ed but the standing of the Leag’ue in its own city speaks for itself. Xenians no longer give i t the financial support of for mer years. . ’ ‘ The tbiyns and townships of. the county have done their “bit”. The Red Cross ,rendered aid to all appeals if the situa tion warranted. There was no discrimination. When the time came to discontinue the relief work no complaint could be made against the Red Cross, It has functioned as long as funds per mitted. It is a sad finis to a good, beginning. The public should understand where the fault Iies| SHALL t h e g r a n d j u r y g o i n t o d i s c a r d ? The Ohio Bar Association 1in session recently at Cedar Point raised some important questions relative to our "courts and the time honored custom of having grand juries to find indictments previous to trials. *The association did not go 6n record but the facttha t the question of dispensing with a grand jury is with a committee for recommendation at a future meet ing is proof that the bar association thinks this body worthless and could be dispensed with at*a great saving to the public. We have been reading some interesting editorials on this question, Also statements from prominent attorneys in Ohio. The drift of opinion is that a change in our jury system is need ed* In some.quarters politics r,ules the whole jury system: In other places certain attorneys enjoy the advantage of friendly jurors,. One comment of note, is the fact tha t certain faces are found on juries more than .one term' a year is pretty .good proof that “justice is blind” as pictured. , . Therfe are several hundred new attorneys being added to practice in courts ench year. The oftener the "friendly jury” system is worked, the more enemies that are made for not only those enjoying favors, but for the entire court system: This problem is being disqussed in more quarters than in gatherings frequented by attorneys. Stories told by some who sit on juries and experience the inside workings, proves also that the oftener the friendly jury system is worked, the more set some one or two are against such things. They do not go about endorsing that system, After a while enough people are interested—and then something happens. Time brings about these changes. « . * The'Qhio Bar Association in discussing the dropping of the grand jury is opening a wide field for discussion. The public *will have its view. Those who must go into court and come out feeling they have been “milled” by*-a so-called friendly jury cannot he silenced. They have their friends. The gospel for a change eventually, if not now, comes about.' A few attorneys may have profited in dollars and cents, but they go about with a different tag—a tag public sentiment puts on and it cannot be removed, 1 PURINAFEEDS PIGCHOW COWCROW BULKYLASS HEN CHOW CHICKCHOWDER - FENCE LOCUSTPOSTS STEEL POSTS HANNA GREEN SEALPAINT ' JOHN DEERE IMPLEMENTS HAAGWASHERS i CedarviUe Farmers1 Grain Company E v e r y t h i n g for the Firm P h o n e 21 CedarviUe, 6 h io ■ **. ■ f A\ TrueBiting Plates GUARANTEED THE BEST ANCHOR* SUCTION E x I tm H ms FREE With all work If you montlon thia •<?. * Special!
