Several plans have been suggested, but one proposed by M . B . Cotsworth, d ire c to r^ the International Fixed Calendar League, appears to meet with most favor, ‘Briefly, his proposal is to divide the year into 13 months of 28 days each, every week and month to begin on Sunday, with the extra month inserted between June and July, It would be necessary to have an additional day at the end of December, and an extra day in Leap years, but these would not take the name of any day of the week. Thus each day of every month would alwaytoscome on the same day of the week— Sundays on the 1st; 8th, 15th and 22nd; Mondays on the 2d, 9th, 18th and 23d , and so on. From a practical standpoint the proposed calendar would have many advantages and would greatly simplify the keep­ ing of accounts, computing pay rolls, calculating interest, rec­ ording statistical data and the like. Sentimentally, it would play havoc with anniversaries and church feasts by requiring other days to bie substituted for those now observed. Those who Were borh on the 29th to 31st, inclusive, of any month would, be legislated out of their birthdays. Still, the same thing has happened many times: in the past when calendar changes have been made, ,and ,po ohe appears to have been harmed by the-process*1 TURNER AND THE 'U T IL ITY F IGHT One cannot’help but admire Attorney General Edward Turner for his continued fight fto break the control of the utility interests in Ohio on government and especially legis­ lative m ajors; Mr, Turner has the-reputation of being a lead­ ing attorney and his decisions have attracted state-wide at­ tention among the legal fraternity. He is fearless and takes neither side into consideration when, rendering an opinion. The past two legislative bodies in this state have been dominated by the utility lobbists. *Not only legislation effecting utility interests-has been cared 'for but these utility lobbyists have, injected themselves in other matters, many of which have added extra burdens on'the tax-paying public. Mr. Turner was on the ground ,and more than once last win­ ter called the attention o f the public to the work o f the lobby. He no doubt knows more about What took place in the legis­ lature than do most members who, found pleasure and prob­ ably some profit,: we’ll say political profit, in following the lobby that had unlimited expense accounts fo r the use of someone, „ . . 1 'In his speeches over the state before civic as Well as re­ ligious clubs-and organizations, M r. Turner has been pburijig a shell-fire into the political activities of the Ohio Anti-Saloon ■League and the connection this organisation has had in uniting with the Utility lobbyists to control all legislation.' Mr. Turner „ has demanded that the league make known its financial- sup­ porters but as yet the,League is :deaf, ’dumb and b lind .' During the recent referendum contest .the Herald more than once-made reference to the Anti-Saloon League and its connection with the utility crowd, Wh^t has interested us more than anything 'else is that the League can make a 'big noise about prohibition enforcement and yet completely ignore the- famous liquor parties during the legislature as staged by the-,ut$ify lobbyists* Mr. Turner has laid much to the door ^g,iie.alopg that line tout no answer is fdfch-coming. t w after one o f the famous liquor parties in a Colum­ bus -hotel, in which there were mftny of the so-called dry mem­ b e r 0* the legislature present; the Herald ;laid the facts before the League, but not even a reply to odr letter’ was ever re­ ceived, r ' b ,* * ; - ■. The public Is paying an awful toll under the k in d o fg ow ernment we have been having in this state. It is neither Re- publican or Democratic. • It is 'a utility government, and the Anti-Saloon League.is not,the only* organization, having rep­ resentatives in Columbus, that sits by and winks an eye of approval of what is going on.

A series of (mportunt events In the ministry of Jesus had followed each other In rupld' succession. The twelve tied been chosen, and He with His disciples tmd Just returned from a trip of preaching and healing In Gall lee. Such great Interest Wus aroused thht though Jesus was weary and hungry Hd did notHuvo time to eat. 2. Whur His (rlends purposed to do (v* 21). They went out to lay hold on. Cm. They saw Him giving Him­ self with absolute abandon to His work so they attempted to rescue Him forcibly by taking Him from His work. 3. What* they said (V, 21). “He Is beside himself." His passionate de­ votion to saving the lost seemed to them a kind of insanity. M,-' Jehus Opposed by the. Scribes (vv. 22-80). L Their- charge (v. 22). They charged Him with casting out demons by Beelzebub, According to, Matthew 12:22-24, the Pharisees joined the scribes in this charge. The occasion which provoked the charge was the healing of a man possessed with a demon. Unable tn explain His un­ wearying service for needy men by attributing Hi's zeal to religious frenzy, they accused Him of being in league with the devil. 2. Christ’s reply (Vv. 23-27). He exposed their folly by a question and ■by parables? (1) “Dow can Satan cast oui Satan?” If after Satan gets control of a man he should voluntarily ye- linqulsh that hold he would, thus be­ come,his own enemy. In view of the nature ■ of the devil, this ts untiifnk- able. . . (2) vjf a ' kingdom be ; divided against Useif that kingdom ewm<»t stand (v. 24L Civil war Is national suicide* A living exumpie of this folly . Is seen in China today- 13) If a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stuhd (v.2S). , House here means fatally. The fata* lly that wars against Itself will surely perish. (4) No man can enter Into a strong man’s .house and snotl his .goods ex­ cept he first bind the strong .man (v, .27)? Satan here Is-the strong nmfiEthe house Is the world, the goods of Jbe house are the liftman beings whine welfare and hnpplness Satah is seeking to destroy. . 3. Christ’s chakjge (vv. 2S-30). Since :He wan doing the works of God (for before their very eyes He had driven .the demon from the man). He was -undoing the works of the devil, He went nbont doing good. .Wherever He went men were blessed. ’Die eyes of the blind were' opened, deaf ears' were unstopped, the lama were made, to walk and the dead were raised. Having with unanswerable logic met their accusations He charged home npon them most awful guilt, that of blasphemy against the Holy .Ghost Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost Is attributing the works Of the Spirit to: the devil. For this great sin there Is no pardon. III, Jesus Misunderstood by His Family (vv. 81*35). His brothers and mother came with the object of getting Him borne be­ cause they thought He had lost His reason. Of c-onrse His brothers did not believe’ on Him as the Messiah, .hot their filial interest moved theta to try to get Him home. No doubi this was most painful to Jeans. Their mOr tlve may have been right, hot they were used of the devil to hinder. Him IV. Jesus Misunderstood by HIS Pel low Townsmen (0:1-6). The citizens of Nazareth were un­ able to question the reality of Christ’s work and fhe power of His words, hut because He was one of them they were offended at Him, This is a marvelous example of the blighting effects of prejudice,. Because of this attitude of soul on (he part of the people His wonder working w*ts very limited among them. And He marveled because of their unbelief* Vanity Vanity of vanities sattb the preach er; nil Is vanity.

' Proposed "Additions u -Five Years of 3 A N February first we begin the 75th ^ fiscal year o f this business. It was .founded in 1853 by my father in a very modest way and has kept pace with the S owth o f the community. ‘ We rejoice in e belief that we enjoy the confidence and good will o f the people to an unusual degree. Seventy-five years o f growth and development and success is a record of which we are very proud. We appreciate, hoWevet*, that each o f these factors has only been possible through the support o f file people o f Dayton and vicinity. For fills support we are deeply grateful. In celebrating this 75th Anniversary year we have decided that it should be marked not so much by the details o f the history of the past, or a survey o f the conditions o f file present, but by some declaration o f plans and ideals for the future. 4It is our conviction that we have been building for *evehty-five years not for today, but for tomorrow. . W e love Dayton, We believe that an un­ usual civic pride permeates this commu­ nity, We further believe that this is an unusual city in the good will, the gener­ osity, the freedom from prejudice and the intelligence that bind together its citizens. The group accomplishments o f Dayton prove this. * We are ambitious to serve this city in an unusual way. To do this we must plan for the tomorrow. We have acquired the property west o f us on Second Street up to the Miami Hotel. We also control the property on Main Street in which our Men’s Store is located. We have for yearn been dreaming o f an addition to our main stere building* The dictates Of good busi- ness judgment, however, make it neces­ sary to plan carefully. We have set it down as a fundamental o f our expansion program that we shall not proceed-with plans for our new building until we reach a volume o f sales with our present fa c ili­ ties o f $9,000,000. For the year ending January 31, 1928, we,will do $7,730,000 in sales, the largest volume in our history. As a task for our Anniversary Year we have set the goal o f $9,000,000 in sales. This ambitious goal, in our judgment, is justified not only by the unusual character . o f the occasion we celebrate,abut isten- • tirely reasonable from a business view­ point. We look forward with great con­ fidence to favorable conditions for busi­ ness growth during 1928. - Money is cheap, crops have been good, inventories are low, wages are high, all factors point . to prosperity in 1928, If our, objective is attained, we shall im- ‘ mediately begin the development o f our plans for new buildings, equipment and facilities, ' We thus frankly take you into oui? confi­ dence because stores form a great asset in any community and the advantage o f comfortable, adequate, and well managed shopping facilities is a matter o f decided, advantage and o f very justifiable civic pride. We recognize that setting such a , task for ourselves is not a small ambition. We believe, however, that the very at­ tempt insures growth. We know the at­ tainment will justify the actual start on plans that will add further luster to the fgmC o f this fair city; and increase the im­ portance o f its sky line* President "?£* W in a prize.
