FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1930 EXAMINATION OF BUS DRIVERS Now we discover that all bus drivers, including those who drive the school bus, must take an examination and if passed be licensed. It seems we, have had such a law for some years but it was never enforced pertaining to school bus drivers. I t has taken several freightful accidents wherein a number of innocent children have lost their, lives to awaken public officials and citizenry to respect for; such.laws. Now the time is hereto determine who is fit and not capable of operating school bus equipment. One of the objections raised in this country is that we have too many laws, so many that the average citizen cannot be in­ formed and a number to great for public officials to be acquaint­ ed with. It should not be necessary for a law to compel certain requirements on the part of bus drivers. Each member of the Board of Education of each district should know that only capable drivers are wanted. Our great desire to cure every frill or ill by legislation has so -hardened the public that crea­ tion of a new law now makes little or no impression, School boards that let out bus transportation to the lowest bidder regardless of the fact the driver might not be physically mentally capable should be prosecuted. Such an act is betrayal of the safeguard parents have entrusted in a board to provide protection for children. In our opinion each driver should be required to give a liability bond of $10,000 or more and suffer criminal prosecution in case of proven negligence. GRAVEL ROAD PROGRAM DOES NOT SUIT We were somewhat amused the other day at the critical attitude of a well known farmer who resides hear. Clifton. He expressed himself in np uncertain terms as to how public officials could be sold on the gravel, road idea. This farmer of course uses the Springfield and Clifton pike to some extent arid his criticism, of the waste of public money on that type of road rather coincided with what has been our view for some time. Those who must use that road have all the gravel top roads they want. The experiment has been costly but evidently pub­ lic officials must enforce their personal view rather than even consult adjoining land owners. * * Our farmer friend wanted to know of the writer why the farmer and particularly the automobile owner, did not have some say'as'ito'.the type of material to be used for road, con­ struction. Now that most farmers are automobile owners they natui*ally want the best type of road for the money. Our an­ swer was that farmers and automobile owners had not yet de­ manded what type of road should be built and for this reason the gravel road with tar top had to be tried out. The result speaks for itself as the road is a failure. Some of these days public officials having control of road improvement will get to se^vethe short term unless the wishes of the farmers and auto­ mobile owners are not at least .respected. Most of our road money now conies from the motor car and truck, directly or in** directly,, and motor car owners will change conditions, at the polls, to get what they want. * COMPENSATION FOR COUNTY EMPLOYEES The recent decision of the Supreme Court that counties in Ohio having drawn more compensation for injured employees than the amount paid in, must go on the “pay-as-you-go” basis “and no more checks can be issued until the overdraft has been met, brings an unusual situation in the state. With twenty seven countieeg overdrawn it means that all compensation must stop until the overdraft from each county jtsVmade goddl The law requires an annual payment of three per c en f of the total salaried employees. This*is the feature that has-.caused the trouble in as much - as some counties have had more injured employees than others The . law fixes a stated amount regardless of the number of claims^ iTad the rate been fixed on the actuary basis the over­ draft could have been taken care of. . Industrial compensation for injured employees, public or private, is one of the most advanced steps in the past twenty- five years. The days of old are gone when ambulance chasing lawyers can harass industrial companies following some acci­ dent that betel an employee. * The present law protects the employer as Well as the employee and both have insisted that Ohio keep the law intact. Certain industrial liability insurance companiees have endeavored to kill the law or at least make it unpopular but have been unsuccessful so far. The last legislature could have remedied the present situa­ tion but from reports no attempt was made after Attention bad been called to over-drafts existing in several counties at that time. The public expects the injured to be paid their allowed claims and it is going to be up to the proper officials to take this step. I f public employees were protected under this law as are employees in private corporations, there would be no overdraft. Greene county being in the list of counties overdrawn in this account must await some definite action on the part of state Officials before additional warrants can be issued. FOOD FOR BIRDS AND DUMB ANIMALS In the winter season the public requires constant reminders to reduce suffering among oiir winged friends and'all domestic animals. Snow and ice on'the ground and on lakes and running ♦streaems cuts off the supply of natural food and water from the winged and four-footed denizens of the great world and causes incalculable suffering. It is a kind and generous act to make food and water avail able to creatures deprived of it by winter weather. Editors have prevented much suffering by bringing this matter to public attention and every family will derive pleasure and satisfaction by aiding in the humane cause. * rtV .

Abandonment Not Soybean Liability In weighing the comparative ad­ vantages of wheat and soybeans as a cash crop, the Ohio farmer will do well to remember the factor of aban­ donment of wheat due to winterkill­ ing, suggests C« R. Arnold of the rural economics department of the Ohio State University. Soybean* have as­ sumed a new importance as a cash crop in. Ohio, through, recent estab­ lishment of-factories for converting the beans to industrial and other, uses. With 'certain favoring jfaetprs Jthe crop may successfully compete with' wheat, which' has heretofore been the princi­ pal cash crop of the state. During the past eight'years, accord­ ing to reports of .the United States Department of Agriculture, an aver­ age of more than 17 per cent of-the winter wheat acreage in Ohio, has been abandoned because of winterkilling. In one year 64 per cent of the acreage was abandoned for this reason. Since soybeans are planted in the spring they are not liable to this drawback. “Abandoned wheat acreage lias usually been planted to oats, it is .rue,” says Arnold. “But the owner has suffered loss nevertheless. He is out the cost’ of his seed wheat, possi­ bly- half the cost of his fertilizer, and all the-labor involved in planting, al­ though the seed bed preparation is not lost. Further, his program for the year, which included the growing of wheat, is thrown out and his cash re­ turns from oats will not be So large as returns from the same acreage of wheat. The abandonment of wheat acreage is an important point in con­ sidering the growing of soybeans. , MRS. H, BARNES Many of the actual experiences with Konjola would challenge belief, were the actual facts not known and veri­ fied, " Such an experience was that of Mrs. H. Barnes, Glenwood Drive, Solon near Cleveland, Ohtty who said; “I was terrible ill for five years and spent many months in hospitals. Nothing I ate would remain in', my stomach. Even water brought on retching spells and nausea; I was bilious and terrible weak. My nerves were in such a state that my own family suffered neglect as a conse­ quence'. This is all. changed now. In ju st six weeks after taking this ne»v medicine I felt better than before first became ill My stomadh does not' trouble me and I eat what I* please of hearty foods. I am no longer biliouc- and the Jbeadaches- and dizzy spells are gone. My nerves have become normal and I can do my work with pleasure. -I have not felt so well in years. What a medicine Konjola is! How happy I am to recommend it! Konjola . is sold*' in Cedarville at Prowant & Brown drug store, and by all the leading druggists in all towns throughout this entire section. “SHOW OF SHOWS” NATURAL COL0R, SINGING SUPER REVUE .The widespread custom of giving vent to operatic spasms in one’s hath tub is such a'universal pastime that a song has been written .about it.

At to Giving (vv. 1-4). Alms were not to be given before men to be seen of them. Doing alms before men la not condemned an that would contradict Matthew 6:16, but the doing of them before inen to be seen of them. To seek publicity in doing our alms Is to miss the reward of our heavenly Father. The true child of the kingdom will seek privacy in doing righteousness, that he may have the, open reward of the Father, IJ. A* to Praying (vv. 5-15). L False prayer (vv, 5, 7). " This consists in (1) Praying to be seen and heard of men (v. 6). Many of the prayers uttered In public are false, for there 1s more thought of what the people think than of what God thinks. (2) Using vain repe* - tlons (v. 7). This does not mean that we should ask but once for a given thing. We have examples of Christ and Paql praying three times for the same thing (Matt:- '26:39-46; *II Cor.' t2:7. 8), It1means the using of mean" ingles*1 repetitions.. The- reason ‘ Is. “ Your Father knowetb What things ye have need of before ye ask Him.'' 2. True prayer (v. 6). since prayer is a transaction of the sou! with God; there should be a real desire for fellowship with Himwhich moves one to meet Him In the secret place. , 3. The model prayer (vv. 9-15), This Involves (1) Right relationship —“Our Father” (v. 9). (2) Right a t ­ titude—“Hallowed be thy name" (w , 9, 10). (3) Right spirit—“Give us our daily bread, forgive us our sins, lead ns not Into temptation” (yv. 11-13). Ilf. As’-to Fasting (vv: 16-18). - The true reason for fasting is to be found in the opportunity it gives for a c/ear vision of. God. Those who have thus seen God wjl! make it mani­ fest In a joyful countenance. IV. As : to Earthly .vRiches (vv. 19-24). i The Lord knew the temptations which, would befall His children, in their earthly pilgrimage and the anxiety to which it would lead; there4 fore He'set forth the proper attitude toward them. 1. The nature of earthly riches <w. 19-21). (1) Uncertain (vv. 19, 20). Earthly treasures corrode, or are taken from us, therefore we should lay up for ourselves treasures in heaven where they ire absolutely-safe from corrup­ tion and from thieves. (2) Seductive (v. 21). Christ called riches deceit­ ful (Matt. 13:22). U Is not wrong to: possess earthly treasures', but when earthly treasures possess us, they be* come a snare unto us; Excessive at­ tention should not be given to earthly -treasures. 2. The effect of earthly riches (vv. 22-24). (1) Blunt the moral and spiritual perceptions (vv. 22, 23). Those ,wtio become enamored of the things of this world soon become Irresponsive to spiritual things. When the heart is upon earthly treasures, It Is taken from God, The double eye Is dis­ astrous to spirituality. (2) They ren­ der null and void all service (v. 24). As soon as one’s heart Is stolen by riches, he Is rendered nnflt for spir­ itual service. V. As to Filth In ths Heavenly Fa­ ther (vv. 25-34). L Be not anxious about food and clothing (w . 25-34). Because (1) It shows distrust of God (v. 80), God Is able to supply His "children’s needs. (2) It Is use* less (v. 81). Anxiety can bring noth* ing. While bringing' us nothing, It weakens our service. (8) It Is heathenish (v. 82), Those who have not (earned to trust God may worry over temporal affairs, but those who know Him as a loving Father, will be free from care. 2. Be anxious td seek the kingdom of God and serve Him (vv, 83, 34), This means that worldly affairs should be subordinated to spiritual affairs. JWWIIIHIII] SMd Thought!
