i'- THE CEDARVILLE HERALD KARLH BOLL ~ — — EDITOR AND PUBLISHER Entered at the Post Office, Cedavville, Ohio, October SI, 1887, as secwial class matter. . FRIDAY, JULY 26, 1929 TAX AMENDMENT CAMPAIGN TO BE WARM The campaign for a change in the Ohio taxation system through adoption of the proposed amendment to the constitu­ tion and provide for classification promises h> be a rather warm affair before the November election. Since Governor Vic Donahey has openly challenged the proponents o f the. amendment on the justness of the plan, we can lookior_some big field action from both sides. _ Two years ago Donahey took a stand against a similar form of classification, but this year certain farm organization leaders are on the opposite side which will only add to the complexity of the situation. As a result of the decisiou in a U. S. Court that will exempt National Banks in Ohio of paying certain tax on capital slock the state stands to loose several' hundred. thousand dollars m revenue directly and.through the various taxing districts.. How much this decision will influence voters to support the classifica­ tion plan cannot be estimated this early inthe campaign. The law was a blunder on the part of the Ohio legislature as was pointed out at the time it was assed in that it was not in accord with the federal law governing national banks. POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT SHOWS BIG LOSS Announcement-of the big loss'amounting to many millions in the operation of the postoffice department the past year, startled, the present administration in Washington that had nothing to do. with contracts or management. When the late President Harding went into office one of the first things he did was to appoint a commission to investi­ gate departments and report on efficiency rendered and costs. It so .happens that Walter Brown, now postmaster general, was a member of the Harding committee that made the investiga­ tion and reported to President Harding. The report was .sent to Congress for action but political pressure caused the recom­ mendations to smothered. The great fault of the Harding ad­ ministration was the plunderhund that the then president had permitted to gather about him in government affairs. President Hoover is forcing not only economy,in depart­ ments but is going to hold down government costs. Postmaster General Brown is abolishing useless salaried jobs in his depart­ ment that had become a nesting-place for I-Iarry New’s political associates. The New administration at times tried to show a paper profit for the P. O. department but investigation now proves that it was a false one and the deficit speaks for itself. New granted great sums as extra compensation to railroads for hauling mail, fhere is reason to believe Walter Brown can and will right things in the postoffice department. SHOULD HIGHWAY CROSSES BE MOVED? The to ll‘ of death by automobile accidents continues to mount each week not only for Ohio but other states as well. There seems to be a determination on the part of the motoring public to disregai’d all regulation laws as well as common sense in driving. As a result the account of the week-end trip acci­ dents and fatilities grows! • What plan will check this ever increasing slaughter has not been presented the public if there is one. Responsibility rests largely on the individual motorist, The wonder is that not more are killed each weelcdnstead of a fewer number." Automobiles go racing down the road at {Breakneck. speed much the result of the campaign for speed on the part of the auto manufacturers. Speed has been stressed with each new model a id the improved highways gives most drivers the fever to test the claims of the manufacturers. Ohio some years ago adopted a plan of erecting a small cross at the roadside where a life was taken'by a motor acci­ dent. Many were impressed with the idea and'in those days drivers did not have, the speed fever as today, or at least there were not so many speed bugs on the highways. It has been announced that the .crosses are to come down as a drive over the state reminded one *of a trip through a grave-, yard. What reaction will come from this order one cannot predict but as the present day motorist travels it is not likely he would even she many of the crosses and (if course would hoi. be influenced by'their presence and silent tribute that probably wreckless driving cost one life at that spot. THE KAISER CAN GO HOME _The cables bring the interesting news that the former Kaiser is now legally free to return to Germany. They also furnish -the information that he probably will not return, be­ cause the German people do not want him. . Immediately after the armistice, the war leaders of Britain and France talked quite a little about the necessity of personal vengeance against the Kaiser. It was reasonably plain that they were driven into such talk by political pressure at home, not sincerely desiring to follow a course which obviously carried the danger of making the Kaiser a martyr and a hero in the eyes o f the German people. Wiser counsels prevailed and Wilhelm was allowed to settle down at Doom. Today he is certainly not a martyr and he scarcely carries the appearance of a hero, in Germany or abroad. Already he is on trial before the bar of history, which, after-all, is a much more capable tribunal than any the Allies could have constituted. —-Times-Star. Meal Worm Unique In Its Double Life Is a Pest To One Class And Livelihood To Another Group What isi a dangerous and costly In­ je c t pest to one group o f people in the United States, is a valuable commod­ ity to another. While one group is busy trying to exterminate the meal worm, still another group buys, feeds, and breeds the came worm. Persons who handle flour, grains, and other stored products, are busy combating the meal worm which breeds in milk!, granaries and ware­ houses where food is stored.

Interests o f the two groups do not Conflict, says the United States De­ partment o f Agriculture, because the worms which are raised are handled m such a way that they cannot become destructive. There are two species of the meal worm abundant in praclically all parts of the United States, It is perhaps the only insect which is both a pent and a desirable citizen, depend­ ing on how you look at it. Dipping the Shoulder Makes a Loose Swing D IPPING the left shoulder at the top of the swing is a bad habit and will eventually ruin one’s game if Indeed it Is not already ruined by the uncertainty of the swing. . There is usually a sequel to tbh first fault. This Is the dipping of the right shoulder at the finish o f the stroke. Both are faults that should be corrected ns quickly as possible. The Idea in the golf swing Is to tceet the shoulders on a level plane at nil times. If one dips at the finish of the stroke only it will be the result of a very loose swing which is some-- thing to be avoided, not only with the wooden dubs but with the irons as well, .

Lesson for July 7 THE STORY OF EZEKIEL LESSON TEXT—Ezekiel 1:4-11; 24:15-18, GOLDEN TEXT-—As l live, salth the Lord God, I have no pleasure" In the death of the wicked, ‘but that the w icked. turn from his way and live. PRIMARY TOPIC—Ezekiel, a Mes­ senger of God. JUNIOR TOPIC—Ezekiel, a Mes­ senger of Qod. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—Frankness In Friendship. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—A Propliet-Pastor. Ezekiel prophesied in the land of the captivity. The purpose of his ministry was threefold. (I) To keep before the house of Is­ rael that they were In captivity be­ cause, of tllelr sins (14:23). (2) To show that God Is righteous In His vis­ itation of Judgment upon them (7 :8,9), (3) To sustain their faith by assur­ ing them of their national restora­ tion, the punishment oL their enemies, and their final. exaltation among the nations when Messiah should reign (34:11-31). 1. Ezekiel’s Call 2:1, 2). I. Command to stand up (v. 1). He was given a vision of the Al­ mighty God on His throne of glory (ch. 1), The purpose o f this vision was to give a synthetic grasp of the exe­ cution o f the divine will through the powers and forces which God had cre­ ated. Before this vision the .prophet fell prostrate upon his face. When one sees the diversity and complexity of the agencies employed, Including the animate and Inanimate .creation lnfelli- gently moving fonvnrd, under the di­ rection of the Almighty,- be will be ready to face any task regardless of Its difficulty. . 2. Filled with the Spirit (v, 2), By the Spirit (be divine energy en­ tered him and ennbled hint td execute his commission, II. Ezekiel's Commission (vv. 3-8). 1. The moral condition o f the peo­ ple (vv. 3, 4). : (1) A rebellious nation (v. 8). This perhaps -referred to their Idolatrous practices. (2) Impudent children (v. 4). Impu­ dent means literally “ hard of face.” It means the grossest perversity which caused them to stand up in the pres­ ence of .the prophets of God without a sense of guilt. 2. The charge (v. 4). He was to deliver God’s message. It was to be, “Thus salth the Lord God.” 3. The difficulty of his task (vv. 5-8). The prophet was to deliver the mes­ sage of God whether they, would hear or forbear. He was to fearlessly exe­ cute bid commission, though the atti­ tude of the people he ns "briars, thorns and scorpions." A faithful minister’s life and testi­ mony will run counter to the- world. (II Tim. 3:12). ■ , III. Ezekiel’s Experimental Qualifi- cations (2:9-3:10). Before one can preach to others he must hate a personal experience. 1. Eating the hook (2:0-3:11). 'rhls hook contained God's woes up,- on the stiff-necked and rebellious peo­ ple. In order to speak God's threat- ehlngs. effectively to others we must Inwardly digest and appropriate them ourselves. The Result of this, eating was that Eswldel was made “ hard of face and forehead," to go against the people who were "hard of face and forehead.” 2. Urged on by the Spirit (3rl(M4). In order to strengthen Ezekiel for his task, the wonderful symbolism of God’s providential agencies .which had been before him In chapter one was brought to his attention, assuring him that God would accompany him to his new destination, 8. Entering Into sympntby. (v. 15). In order to minister to a people one must show that the message Is from the depth of the heart Ezekiel min­ gled h(s tears with theirs. IV. Ezektel's Grave Responsibility (3:17-21). Two things were required of him as a watchman over the flock. 1. To hear tbeWord o( God’s mouth (v. 17). The source of his message was God’s Word. This Is true today. 2, To sound the warning. (v,'17). After he bad heard God’s message he was to speak It out; then his re­ sponsibility was discharged. V. Ezekiel’s Courage (24:15-18). He was lo be taught by a sorrowful experience, He was to turn his face from even natural desire. At the death of Ills wife he was forbidden to mourn, By this means God sought to impress upon Israel the serious­ ness of the situation. The Sick Need the Physician And tl cume to pass, as Jesus sat at meat In the house, be old, many publicans and sinners chute and ant down with him nn>t Ills disciples, And when the 1’hnrlsees Saw It, they'said unto his disciples, Why enleth your Master with publicans and sinners? Bui when Jesus heard that, lie said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, bui they ‘ Hint are sick.

Through the lack of sleep and nutrition, I became weak, run­ down, tired out and discouraged. “When I had finished the third bottle of Konjola, I , was without a pain, nry bowels were functioning as they should, digestion was ■restored, and my liver and kidney symptoms disappeared as if by magic. I had to quit work, but Konjola set me right, and I am back on the job again.” Konjola is sold in Cedarville, Ohio at Prowant & Brown drug store and by all the best druggists throughout this entire section.
