Let a man that figures in politics have smutty fingers and it will not be long until his imprint can be found with everything he is connected. The farm situation has been greatly muddled and in a number of cases the organ­ izations have had to stand for the double-crossing o f the state leaders that were selling out the influence of the organization for private profit. . Several years ago the writer picked up a piece of news while in Columbus and following the lead discovered that one prominent farm leader was on the pay roll of interests that most farmers were opposing. Of course they were trusting to the honesty of the leader and knew nothing different. . The late O. E. Bradfute while serving the American Farm Bureau Federation was given the information and later mak­ ing an investigation reported we must have been misinformed. The interlocking coverup system adopted by the farm leaders could not be penetrated even by the president of the national organization. ■ . .. As time passed the farm leaders that were farming the farmer became the bolder. More than one event took place that carried with it positive proof. To the credit of the. late Mr. Bradfute following his retirement, he admitted to the writer that our first report was correct, but he could not at the time get first hand information, . RAILROAD BITING OWN HAND We can hardly agree with all that the Ohio State Journal has to say editorially, about an Ohio town that sent its high school band to the Century of Progress Exposition in a school bus. The bus was owned by the school district and no doubt the band was transported at a cost of oil and gasoline, whic1 was under railroad fare. The point the Journal makes is that the railroad company probably paid most of the taxes in The district where the pay­ roll of railroad men reached $3,000,000 annually. In view of these facts, the Journal presents good argument in support of the railroad. . . ’ The other side of the question is that most of the railroads now own the big bus lines, that use the highways, thus giving themselves competitoin and at the same time crowding out others who could make a living in the same way. From the standpoint of the automobile owner, he is taxed the heaviest in license tax and with gasoline and oil to build and maintain highways. With the railroads in the bus business using the highways for freight and passenger business, as we see it little complaint can be made because some board of education used a school bus to transport the school band to Chicago. If we were to offer a suggestion the remedy for relief for the railroads is loWer freight rates and passenger, fares, with a little less high priced train service. The railroad companies are trying to operate under high fares to cater to a rich class and overlooking the opportunity of getting the business of the middle class that is using the highways. KEEP THE AUTOMOBILE FIT The old rule, “ be sure you’re right, then go ahead,” could be profitable adopted, it would seem, by many motorists with the change, “ be sure your car is right, then go ahead.” Mechanical failure is given as one of the chief causes of auto­ mobile accidents. One competent, authority estimates that 10 per cent o f the 1,060,520 automobiles involved in accidents, last year were so defective mechanically that accidents could not be avoided. --------- —.1___ ■' It is often said that the car is no betterThalf the driver, and the reverse of this to some extent, is true." The driver is not better than his car. When it has defective brakes, bad tires, poor headlights and an unresponsive engine or any of these defects, it is not a safe car to drive in heavy traffic, the require­ ments o f which demand ease and certainty in operation. The best of drivers operate under heavy handicaps in such cases, and frequently come to grief. The prevailing prices o f automobiles, both new and used, are such that any person who drives a car can have a safe car for comparatively little money. If cars cannot be repaired at reasonable cost, it is one’s duty to turn them over to the wreck­ er or trade them in for new or used machines. To drive them When they are a menace to traffic means taking a long chance on one’s own and others’ safety. —Dayton Herald. You cannot guess the backbone possessed by the waist­ line, GET YOUR INFORMATION DIRECT It is evident that the public in general is not fully ac­ quainted with the workings of the Home Loan Owners Corporation. Various reports have been published and in circulation as to what can be expected. From what we have learned it is going to be safest to avoid disappointment by getting your information first hand after presenting your claim for consideration. Do not build castles on expectations until you have the final answer. Many people have a wrong impression as to what will be granted by the new corporation that was formed to give relief to home owners in distress. Those who default on mortgage loan interest, taxes, etc., since June 13, 1933, are going to find it hard to have their loan re-written. Home owners who are obligated to closed banks are to be cared for so far as their claims can be handled by Corporation. Both the state banking department and building and loan de­ partment in this state are cooperating with the new federal company. VACATION PERIOD NEARING END Thousands of young boys and girls will return to school Within the next ten days or two weeks. It is to be hoped they have had a pleasant vacation even though there has been what appeared to be hardship in labor. The boy or girl that has had employment of some kind will likely return to school bettor . fitted to take up studies than those who have not had their minds centered on anything other than pleasure. Many will enter high school for the first time and this is to be an important event in their lives for we have now reached the stage where the boy or girl in after life will find it hard to get any kind of a position or responsibility that has not gradu­ ated from high school. The highway is before you and you alone must make the best o f your opportunities, for it will be the highway selected now that will lead you to worthwhile things in after-life. Keep up your high school work until the course is completed and you have graduated. , Now that we are to have a tax on amusements, suppose after the show you decide it was not in that class, can you expect a refund of the tax 7 * The oil code now under trial provides for fixing both the base price o f gasoline as well as the retail price.

Certainly all human his­ tory falls to record a move tragic failure, fn order to present this les­ son properly, It is necessary that the teacher have a synthetic grasp of Saul’s history. I. Saul’s Advantages. 1. A worthy Inheritance (9:1). His father was ”a mighty man of power,” One’s Inheritance Is a strong factor in determining. his success or failure In life, 2. His natural gifts (9:2). a. He was humble (10:22), When facing the responsibility of national leadership he hid himself. b. He was considerate of his father (9:5). Not being successful In the mission committed unto him and think­ ing that his father would be concerned about him, he proposed to go hack. > c. The grace of God was upon him (10:5-7).' God visited him with his grace to enable him to perceive the divine choice and to make good in It. d. The Holy Spirit came upon him (10:10). Acceptable service can only he rendered In the energy o f the Holy Spirit. e. He was zealous for God. (11:4-15), As leader he rendered loyal service unto his people because of seal for God. .3 The friendship of Snmuel (15:35). Snmuel not only was loyal to Snul ln the time of his life, but greatly mourned his death. II. Saul Made King (chaps. 8-10), 1. The demand of the people (8:1-22). The reason for this demand was threefold: . a. Incapacity of old age (v, 5). This was at least the plea of the people, which seems not to have been denied. b. The unfaithfulness of his sons (v. 5). Samuel greatly blundered In the appointment of his sons as Judges. Vhe office was not hereditary, and they were •morally unfit (v. 3). c. Desired to be like other nations (v, 5 ) / The surrounding nations had strong lenders and rulers, and It wns natural that the Israelites should de­ sire proper leadership. Samuel pro­ tested. and took the matter to the Lord in prayer. The Lord directed him to solemnly point out to the peo­ ple the meaning of their action. 2. Saul chosen as king (9:1-11). While on an, errand for his father, Samuel found him and anointed him (10:1-10). In due time the divine choice was confirmed by the people at Mlzpeli (10:17-27), 3. Saul’s leadership displayed (11:1-15). He revealed hts military genius In effecting n great victory over the Ammonites at Jnbez. Samuel took advantage of this opportunity to hnve Saul confirmed ns king. III. 8aUl’s Failure <15;l-25). j 1. God’s command (vv. 1-3). God directed him to utterly destroy the Amnlekites because of tlielr evil treat­ ment of rsrnel (Exod. 17:8; Dcut. 25:17). . 2. Saul’s disobedience (w . 4-9). Agng, the kin*, was spared and the best of the goods appropriated. 8. Saul rejected by God (Vv. 19-25). a. Snmuel cried to God (v. It). The news o f Saul’s disgraceful failure greatly disturbed Samuel, moving him to pray to God day and night b. Saul’s hypocritical pretense (w . 15, 16), This pretense carried a lie upon Its face. Hla disobedience was revealed by the bleating of the sheep and the lowing of the herds. c. Samuel rehearses before Saul God’s dealing with him (w , 17-23), He brought him face to face with his sin. God Is more concerned with having obedience on the part of Ids servants than he ts to have them offer sacri­ fices unto him. IV. Tha Divine Judgment Falls Upon Saul (15:26-35). I 1, The loss of his kingdom (vv, 26-31). For the presumptuous offering of sacrifice the kingdom was rent from Saul and the dynasty passed from hts house. 2. Under the control of an evil spirit (19:9-11), When Saul refused allegiance to God, Sntnn took con­ trol of him. 8, His shameful death (81 :l-4). He refused to destroy the Amaleklte and was shamefully treated by an Amaick- Ite (II Sam. 1:10), and ended his life by his own hand. Pray Mora No resolution or, better, no determi­ nation you can mnke will mean so much In wonderful results as to deter­ mine that you will pray much more than ever, that you will pray longer and more widely and deeply In the closet hours at a time to do it, that you will have a worthwhile dally fam­ ily worship, and that you will really pray In church services, Real pray­ ing bre: h turns to mighty steam power, to radio messages farther than you dream, to results Immeasurable, The 4-H club? not only in Ohio but other states are doing an excellent thing in forming excursions to the Century o f Progress in Chicago for where states have voted, it looks like members.

Because some division has arisen between patrons over the six- six plan for operation o f the school should be no just reason why the tax duplicate of the county should be reduced, and approval of the trans­ fer. means that. What the county wants is an increased tax duplicate by addition of land from, other counties. >Reducing the duplicate without just cause would only throw An unusual brand of legislation is now up for consideration in Dayton. One ordinance provides that owners of dogs must have a special frame­ work on the side of -cars for dogs or else let them tide on the inside. The objection is allowing dogs to ride be­ tween the fenders and the hood and also on running boards. The ribxt concerns the sale o f baby, chicks. It will be unlawful to sell baby chicks in less than half dozen lots, About Easter time baby chicks are sold to children who fondle them to death or after the affection disappears, allow them to die for want o f care. > The news dispatches brings us the sad news of a publisher friend, Fred S. Wallace, editor o f the Coshocton Tribune, who disappeared Sunday morning and has not been seen since. He had been in ill health for some time .but was able to be at his office daily. The authorities have organized for a county-wide search.. .Mr. Wal­ lace was formerly * Springfield news­ paper man. Hlinois has an unusual state bank­ ing law, something different than most states. An owner o f bank 'stock never knows when his responsibility ceases even though he may sell the stock. In some states liability ceases after the stock has been sold two, foi ' or six months. That state has been having about the same experi­ ence in bank closing other states have had. Now many former owners 'of bank stock are being called upon for the double liability. We learn of one suit against a former owner for double liability though he sold the stock sixteen years ago md has had no financial connection with the bank since that time. Such laws are un­ reasonable and will tend to keep re­ sponsible people from ever owning bank stock. Five early Ohio newspaper men have been nominated for the Journal­ ism Hall of Fame, conducted by the School o f Journalism o f Ohio State University. Balloting by 72 Ohio publishers will be ended Sept. 1, Each publisher will vote for two names and nomi­ nees receiving two-thirds o f the vote will be elected. The nominees are: Joseph W. Gray, 1813-1862, found­ er of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. James Wilson, 1787-1852, owner of the Steubenville Gazetter and- West­ ern Herald, and grandfather of Woodrow Wilson. Moses Dawson, 1768-1844, editor of the Cincinnati Advertiser, now the Enquirer. William Isaac Chamberlain, 1837- 1920, associate editor o f the Qhio Farmer. Richard F. Outcalt, 1863-1928, bom in Lancaster, reporter on the Cincin­ nati Enquirer, later nationally known cartoonist and originator of the “Buster Brown” comic strip.
