THE ANTI SALOON LEAGUE AND THE UTILITIES I f there in may consumer o f gee or a patron o f the Bell Tele­ phone Company la Greene County that cannot aee the connec­ tion Between the Anti Saloon League and mg Utility companies in Ohio, there should never be another demonstration, ’against gas rate increases, or Bell phone increases, as there has been within the past few years in this county. In the organization lo f the Ohio Senate in December 1924, a body 93 per cent dry, Joe Gardner, a Cincinnati liberal, was chosen president protein. Sen. ( ? ) Marshall made a speech secondening the nomination. The utility companies dominated that dry branch o f the legislature and voted to reject a house- cleaning o f the Utility Commission that was granting rate in­ creases on valuations amounting to millions more than any one utility company was listed for taxation* When the Senate met for organization in December 1926 this body as dry in numbers as the previous one had two candi­ dates for president protem, One candidate was G. M. Kumler, Lewisburg, Preble county, who was serving his third term arid under the rules o f custom was entitled to the honor. Mr. Kum­ ler was from a dry county and had in his two previous terms al­ ways supported dry measures and took active part in the de- ' bate, in committies and on the floor, Mr.. Kumler in his cam­ paign for the honor he sought had the promise o f support from the League .and was ‘assured that dry votes would be cast for him. There was one vote he cou lanot get a pledge on and that was Senator ( ? ) Marshall from this county, i There was another candidate in opposition to Sen. Kumler and in Sen. Chester Bolton, a millionaire liberal .from Cleveland, When the Senate members met fo r organization Senator Kum­ ler found, that his League support had dwindled to 6 or 8 votes, Senator Bolton received the rest o f the vote, wet and dry. In naming the committees Sen. Bolton harried himself as chairman Of the Utility committee. The Anti Saloon League never of­ fered one consolation or uttered a murmer over the defeat o f a dry candidate fo r the Senate honor and sat camly by and Wit­ nessed the sacrifice o f a Lutheran layman and one active in the councils of that denomination. Sen. Kumler received the double ,-cross from his supposed supporters who played’ him as a tool that the Anti Saloon League would not gain the ill Will o f the' utility crowd. . - . . . ‘ Effort was made during the last session tp repeal the Pence . law and restore certain rights to'the public in dealing with util­ ity companies-. There was no Chance. At one time during this same session Senators from southern Ohio wanted freight rates adjusted in favor o f Ohio coal that mines could be operated. .These Senators appealed in the name o f the hungry women and children that this bill be released by Seri. ( ? ) Marshall/ but to deaf ears did the appeal'fall. The, utility lob(by would not per­ mit the bill to reach a. vote, And that great moral agency, the . Anti Saloon Lefgue a party to this dasterly trick. -Even the crys of children: for food and the distress o f several thousand mothers meant nothing to an organization'that is always prat- ting about up-lift.* - - '-ii . The Anti Saloon League is not the/ League o f ten years ago. Its shallow bellowing about reform reminds us o f the story of the “mother-hubbard” . It covers, everything and touches \ ';n ,V : * r , •' . “ * noth- THE CHANGING SEASONS It won’t, be long,now! The summer is on, the wane, the “melancholy days” are just around the corner,’ Already the -leaves have begun to turn and vegetation "is going to seed, School has begun arid the football teams are meeting fo r prac­ tice* Upon every hand we see the evidence o f the change o f seasons. Autumn is standing in the wings awaiting the prompter’s call as Bummer sings her closing ode. We are Sorry f o f people who live in a land Of perpetual sunshine and do not experience the joys o f changing seasons. ■ It must be monotonous to have flowers always blooming and the sun always'shining, to know no gray days and cloudy days, to have no snow arid ice. Soon the old porch swing will he put away and the screens will be taken from .windows and doors. Soon the lights Will be turned on earlier and the old furnace will be started. The cheerful evenings beside the reading lamp will again be here and the music from the radio will be heard in the home. The old flivver will not be driven so often or so far and the consumption o f gasoline,wiIl be much less. Hallowe’en with its pranks and merriment, Thanksgiving with its joyous family reunions and then the gladsome Christ­ mas ! The New Year with its resolutions and the determination to do better, then St, Valentine’s Day and the eager awaiting o f Easter and the longing fo r the Spring. So goes the eternal Cycle o f th e . seasons-—each one bringing us the weight o f advancing years and the inevitable Wodden box in Which we shall be laid to rest, Not a cheerful thing to think about I So let us get the most happiness, the greatest good out o f the time we are here. It is great to be alive, to enjoy the flaming woods o f ^utumn /to sit by the crackling Winter’s fire, to her the birds sing at the coming o f Spring, to rest in the shade on 0 Summer’s day. Be’ thankful fo r life and health and loved ones. Take time to help some one to scatter sunshine, to lighten the load o f your friends and neighbors. Be glad you are alive and remember there are no pockets in' a shroud. In other words do not miss the real joy o f living in the mad effort ,to pile up coin for your relations to quarrel over when you are no more* FIRE PREVENTION WEEK The present week is being observed as Eire Prevention Week and it is a good time fo r each citizen to consider fire waste and look about his property to ^ee that the element o f danger o f fire loss has been eliminated to the lowest possible point. * . • Too frequently we overlook fire loss due to the fact that we have insurance but insurance nowadays does not fully restore loss o f property. As fo r business there is no chance of insurance covering loss o f operation due to restocking or re­ building after a fire. The per capita fire waste last year was $5 in this country, which means an enormous loss to the country at large. In addition to property loss there were hphdreds o f lives lost by fire. Most o f these were women and children, Mm HOUSE CLEANING TIME and yon can Save 20 Petr Cent by Buying a Radio Suction Sweep­ er at the SERVICE HARDW ARE CO. <=rh £ a Story Martha Martin DISCOVERED AMERICA & ETCHER TWELFTH fe pot cele­ brated ns a holiday because It was the day upon which Christopher Colambus was bora, but because U wap supposed to he the date upon which Columbus first stood upon the ground which forms a part of the con­ tinent of America, The exact date of his birth ta not known, nor the exact place. His birthplace Is supposed to be near Genoa, In Italy, and some time about 1446. • The date which we all know is 1402. That was the year In which he diseoy- So at Last He Started tore. on This Vein tred America, and for a discovery of ihafc sort It seems only fair and right jliat we should do him’ the honor of •elehrating a special day for him. For Columbus' was Uie one who wade so many things possible. Per-,, tops others may have discovered what he did—doubtless in time to come ‘.hey would have done so—-but that Is 111 guesswork on pur part. The fact b Columbus did make, the discovery, to that since bis Ume die countries ipun this continenthave accomplished io much that Is splendid and amazing. The.parents OfOolumhuswere wool- tombers, but they saw. to ft that Co- limbus was tjuite well educated.' At to early age he began ,Ids life upon {he "sea.- We nlLknOw nf his desires and his struggles to obtain aid,to discover a route to Asia by going west. The rouudness of the earth meant some­ thing very rpal to Columbus. Ho P«c- sled over it, thought of it, saw In his mind the round, round earth and of himself traveled Into Asia by another door as it wereJ So at last he started on this ven- ture. Partly with royal assistance, and partly with the help of the Ztn- zons, merchants of Palos, they started. There were only three small ves­ sels. the Santa-Mariar wlileh was {he flagship, manned by COlumbus ; the Nina, commanded by Vincente Vane* Pinson, and the Pints, commanded" by Martin Alonzo Plnzon, and in all there were no more than 120 nien. It was August 3, 1492, that they left Palos; or, as we have always said In ’the tittle rhyme;which makes us keep, the date of tile discovery of America tn our mind*: i Columbus {Wiled tl>* Oossn blue, In fourteen hundred',(uid ninety-two. ; Whatever dates wemay forget, that will somehow always stay in our minds, I think, for not only Is there the rhyme, but there is that little pic­ ture we ean see of Columbus standing In the bow of his .small vessel, fol­ lowed by the two others, and of the water so bide and sparkling and beau­ tiful and smooth. Columbus took many voyages in his' lifetime; lie discovered many islands, made for himself a great and lasting mime In history, but he never knew. he had discovered a new continent Always he thought that those places tie had touched had been parts of Asia. And it seems quite sad to think Of the times we've been applauded (and often, very justly, too) when we've re­ cited well dr played the piano well, Or something of Almt sort, that Chris­ topherColumbus, ' who/ discovered’ America, did not even huow of the great deed^that he had done. Never had lie any realization that in a new continent would they erect monuments to him; nor that'in schools they wouia give pageants about his trip, Ids discouragements; his suc­ cesses. ' . And his little son, Diego, whom Queen Isabella made a page at the Spanish, court, could not boast to the others and say: “My father -litis discovered a new continent, which Is more than cap be told for most fathers., and most,peo­ ple, for that matter!” .
