m THE CEDARVILLE HERALD KARLH BULL EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Alter*d At the Port Office, Cedirville, Ohio, October 31, 1887, ‘ u second ehu* matter. v FRIDAY,' JANUARY 6, 1928 ; THE REASON CALVIN DID HOT CHOOSE An the time approach^# for the presidential election this year developments have now shaped themselves to show that farm relief, the tariff, taxation—income and corporation, with prohibition, will feature the campaign. Both political parties will meet the aame issues in the contest for nominations. Those who believe in government ownership and absolute free trade will be heard from but their claims will not receive serious con­ sideration. The tariff is no longer a party issue but one coming from sectional interests. The southern cotton produf er wants tariff on cotton* The northern coal interests want a tariff on coal. The lumber interests over the entire country want a tariff on lumber. • . What candidates will be nominated by the two parties, no olio can forecast at; this time. Both parties have leaders of dif­ ferent views and there will be an effort to force these views on the conventions representative o f the candidate. In some re­ spects the two conventions may be more o f a battleground than the campaign that will preceed the general election next No­ vember. , It has just become known, that President Coolidge prob­ ably had good reason for not not entering the contest, although his election* should he be nominated and he accepts, would be a foregone conclusion. Reports indicate that at the end of his term he will become head of the United States Steel corpora­ tion, a position that commands a princely salary and would put Mr. President where he could continue to use his wonderful executive ability. MAKE IT HARD FOR THE CRIMINAL .There is'a whole lot of talk about the crime wave and how to reduce crime, A few practical suggestions have been made, but most o f the publicity is given to proposals which would fav­ or and pamper the criminal at the expense o f the law-abiding r‘ citisiQlis- :•■ ■'v:'v ■ • I f we want to stop crime, the surest way to .make it unpop­ ular is to make it more, unpleasant for the criminal. ^ A law to deny the private citizen the right to buy aiid own a pistol or revolver merely gives the criminal a safer field in which to operate. We already have regulatory laws regarding the sale o f revolvers and the carrying o f concealed weapons, These laws, in the past, have been effective When they were en­ forced* ' * ' “ , • • The average man has no business carrying a concealed weapon,1 If he has occasion to, he can get a permit to do so. The crook has no business being a crook, but if he is a crook, still he has no business carrying a concealed weapon. The crook that is out to commit a crime needs no revolver. He can assault you on the street or in the home with a bar of iron or a club. Therefore* if he is arrested imthe act o f lawbreaking and later convicted, he should be subjected to the penalty the law imposes? J£ he uses a gun in tl>e commission of a crime, why not double the penalty? . . • This would punish the criminal who uses a gun unlawfully, rather than the private citizen who under the Constitution has a right to own and possess guns for his protection. . In other Words, enforce, our present laws, double the pen- alt f for criminals where they use dangerous weapons,,and up- 0 hold the law-abiding citizen in his constitutional rights. ^ It is an old saying that clowns never laugh when off the stage. Sounds fishy that these fellows who are constantly rous­ ing gales o f laughter from their fellow-men should be solemn or sad, ’and one is tempted to brand it as another, of those fool­ ish sayings. ‘ * • , ‘ But we are assured that it was true in the case o f the fam­ ous Marcelline, of the Hippodrome who recently took his jown life. It was said to be true also of his friend “ Slivers” who made Broadway rock with laughter many years ago. Same was said to be the case with Sammy Watson, another famous funmaker, who passed away a short time ago in his eighties. The evidence is convincing, IThe old saying is doubtless true, in general, at l&ast, There is psychology for it. I f the pendulum is swung in-one direction it will nbt go back to nor­ mal and stop there but will; go to the same distance in the op­ posite direction. Bend a tree or ai bow, and it will act like the pendulum when released. A bent man is the some. No doubt the clerk in the store who smiles a welcome all day long to the customers is often quite a cross-patch at home in the eyenings. On the other hand pur morticians,i who must preserve a solemn face in their daily work, must be rather poUy companions whe/i off duty. n ■ . . A man should realize this human tendency and not permit himself to become one-sided. There is a time to laugh and a time to weep, and the well regulated, well tuned individual, can do either at the proper time. He will not stay bent too long in any one direction. Too.much clowning makes a.man sad; too much gloom makes him funny.—Pathfinder. AUTOMOBILE FATALITIES “A survey o f automobile fatalities and accidents, shows 115,000 killed, 3,500,000 injured and a property loss of more than $3,000,000,000 in the United States during a five year period.” This is a statement given out by Clarence J. Brown,'’ secretary o f state of Ohio. The appalling thing about this terrible toll of lives and property is that almost all of it was due to carelessness and recklessness. At a consercative estimate *09 out of every 100 automobile accidehts would have been prevented by the exer­ cise o f reasonable care. It is very seldom indeed that an ac­ cident occurs when the ca Se can not be directly attributed to careless ness, recklessness or lack o f judgment on the part of someone, , The great majority o f us drive faster than there is any excuse for doing. We do it not because we ate in a hurry to get some place but because we like to. ride fast. Rare indeed is the driver who respects the laws in regard to speed, Most o f us hate to have another car pass us. For some silly reason we seem to think that it is a reflection on pur car and on our driv­ ing. This is true even if our car is not running half as fast as it can. And oven the most carefull and best of drivers occasionally do foolish things. They will pass another car when they can not see the road ahead o f them, they will make turns without giving the signal and they will stop without giving the signal. About one time in a thousand when a driver does some silly,” reckless thing he has an accident and this causes him to take needless chances. But look at the terrible toll taken by these foolish chances, How much longer will it take a careful, conservative driver in go fifty miles than one y?ho drives at an excessive speed ? Thirty minutes at the most and on an average about fifteen minutes, And the remarkable thing is that usually the people who drive the fastest have the least reason to be in a hurry, We know o f no way to stop people from being foolish and *ckless. Laws wilt not do it because we have plenty o f laws, iMie opinion can do more than anything else. If people con- smn the speed cranks, If they condemn the wild drivers it will dp stop some of them, Regardless o f what is said there is too much admiration today of the fart driver. He brags about his records and get*-praise instead o f blame. The fellow who brags about his fool stunts should be told the figure*, given here. At heart these figures are worthy of consideration by all o f us.—Hillsboro NeWs-Herald. Improved Uniform htAmationtl SondaySM ' Lesson ' (ByHKV,ff, B. riTXWATWK, VO.

The obedience o f the demon (v. 20)*"' The spirit was reluctant to leave the man and malicious to the end, for he tore the man whomhe, had to leave. He had to acknowledge his defeat and went ont In a howling rage. 5. The Impression made upbn tl>e people (w. 27, 28).
