COUNTRY WANTS SOUND PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER i I Presidential elections used to be accompanied by business i disturbances that some time reached the catastroph •stage. J Business faced the presidential year with the trepidation of a j man on his way to a pagan holiday; not knowing if he was to j be stabbed, burned, banged, or beaten. . This year, there is small likelihood of financial or social upheaval. * The people are no longer unadvised about fundamental business and economic principles, They will demand that the next president be a safe, dependably man who can carry on a program of businesslike economy in government and who will keep government a controllable, dependable machine instead o f a hare-brained political madhouse,' always ready to sacri­ fice national prosperity for political expediency. l The next president might bear almost any political label if h4 thinks and acts along common sense lines, GOVERNOR CALLS FOR CONFERENCE Governor Donahey has called a conference between the coal miners and operators that work may be resumed and the mines be put in operation to relieve the suffering for food and clothing that,exists among hundreds o f women and children. The situation is said to be extremely critical among the families ■of the miners. Differences between the operators and miners have kept the mines closed for months; The operators claim the Ohio wage scale has been too high to „put out coal o f the Ohio grade in competion with Kentucky and West Virginia coal. The miners have a different story and say the scale is not high but that the railroads discriminate against Ohio coal in favor o f the other states. . ' ■ , During the Closing session of the last legislature senators and representatives from the coal counties endeavored to get a rate bill to adjust this matter. The legislators pleaded fpr this action knowing that distress "would result among the innocent but pleading in the name ofhelpless women andchildren had no effect on members o f thelegislature under the control of the utility lobby. As a result the bill died in the committee and the, coal districts are in distress. It makes no difference who is wrong,.the operators, or the miners. Southern Ohio has been paralyzed by the present sit­ uation. Innocent people are made to suffer. The coal consum­ ing public has found Ohio coal that usually undersells other coal off the.market. That keeps up a good market for higher priced coal. What Governor Donahey should do is to make known the names of the legislature that acted under orders of the utility lobby. By doing this he would get at the foundation of the trouble.1 TEACH CHILDREN THE TRUTH The Dayton Hyrald brings to the attention of parents a very thoughtful thing as,to the truth of matters that should be dis­ cussed in the home before young folks gain information from outside sources. For years back there has been a desire to for­ get information that should be imparted to the yoUng folks. It has been suggested that this be done in the schools but protests come from many quarters on the ground that the home is the proper place and parents the proper persons to perform this duty. The Herald says: f - Parents, have you told your sons and daughters1 about mat­ ters concerning themselves, that they should know? Have you been putting this off, thinking that they, are too; young? „ , . Perhaps you have wished to shift responsibility, and let them learn from someone else. The information they get outside will not be benificial and Will be given in such a way as to destroy their ideals and cor­ rupt their moral standards. . Taught by companions with no better mental or moral de­ velopment than they have themselves, your children will* be “ enlightened” in a crude and vulgar way, often with mischie- viotis intent. ' ' The reaction dulls the sen-' e of right and wrong in the child, and starts a doubt about his parents because they have never talked with him. * . . In this way parents lose the confidence of their children. Isn't it far better to have this knowledge come.td them in a decent way, in the right light, than through those who give it an unfavorable one? Modern youth travels faster* than the youth o f former years. He thinks faster, and desires to procure knowledge earlier. Parents should give consideration to this condition.” PRESIDENT SUPPORTS PRIVATE BUSINESS Congress is to have before it one of the most interesting bill that has yet been up for discussion. The demand o f various big interests that the government should not engage in com- petative business has brought publishers, job printing houses, paper houses arid certain lines of paper manufacturers inclose organization to check the government printing envelopes at a loss. Envelopes are manufactured, stamped, printed and ship­ ped across the country and sold for less money than they actu­ ally cost. This drain on public revenue keeps up postage on ar­ ticles sent through the mails higher than would otherwise be required were not for this loss. A bill to restrict the Post Office Department’s competition | with the printing industry was introduced in Congress by Sen­ ator Oddie, December 15., The fate of the bill is being watch­ ed with keen interest because it will mean the recognition by Congress of the principle that the government should not com­ pete with private enterprise. This legislation is of unusual sig­ nificance, in view of the fact that President Coolidge during the last few days has made several declarations that the “ govern­ ment should get out o f business as fast as possible and should not embark upon any new ventures which should be undertak­ en by private capital.” The Oddia bill has the unqualified endorsement of the Na­ tional Editorial Association, which represents thousands of the small town as well as city publishers and printers. Officials of the Editorial association have pointed out that they are taking President Coolidge at his word, and feel that the President would directly support this legislation which* incorporates his ideas against paternalism, They argue that the Oddie bill would uphold the principle to Which the President is committ­ ed and effectively check efforts to extend government activity in Industrie:? essentially o f a private nature. It is significant to note that President Goolidge, Secretary o f the Treasury Mellon, Secretary o f Commerce Hoover, Sec­ retary of the Interior Work, and Secretary of Agriculture Jar- dine, in official communications to Congress have recently de­ nounced the policy o f the Federal Government taking over in­ dustrial projects which can be handled competently by private business. Postmaster General New's stand is a unique one, for he in diametrically opposite in his policy to that of his Chief and fellow Cabinet members, It-would appear that the Postmaster General is the lone champion o f paternalism in the Cabinet. Mr. New does not want his department to give up its monoply oh the printing o f envelopes, which is the outgrowth of a bu­ reaucratic system. For yeisrs'the government envelope printing contract has been a political plumb that has netted a Company o f politicians millions o f dollars.

This miracle was wrought by Jesus In confirmation of His.mes- , sage. 1. Faith. coming to Jesus (v, 3). The actuating impulse of the pal­ sied man and the four friends who carried him was- faith. 2. Faith overcoming difficulties (v. 4). . i Though prevented oy the crowd from coming to Jesus, they ascended •the outer stairway and let' the af­ flicted man down through the roof. 3. Faith rewarded (v. 5)., No word was uttered either by the paralytic or his bearers. Their ac­ tion' was enough. The paralytic got more than lip expected.

With the command was given the strength to obey, - That which Christ commands He gives the strength to perform. 2. The obedience of the man (v, 12), He Immediately arose, took up his bad and went forth before them all. The poor helpless man walked away, with his bed upon. Ids shoulder, 3. The people were amazed, and glorified God (V. 12). They said, “We inever saw It on this fashion.” V, Jesus Eating With Publicans and Sinners (w , 13-17), 1, The call of T,evi (v. 14), Levi was a tax-gatherer under the Homan government. As Jesus passed by, He commanded Levi.to leave his business and follow Him. 2, Jesus dining In Levi’s house (v. IS).

This gave (in opportunity to Jesus to come into touch with these shi­ ners. i at/ 3, The perplexed scribes and phari­ sees (v. 10). They asked, “How Is It that He eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?" 4, Jesus’ reply (v, 17). “They that are whole have no need of the physi­ cian. I came not to call the rjghteous, hut sinners to repentance.'' Our Future.i We never know for what God Is pre­ paring os in His schools? for what work on earth, for what work InHim hereafter.
