Shephard TH E gigantic project o f our govern- - merit’s national defense program is today making long-dormant "ghost” towns into thriving communities, al­ ready prosperous cities into "boom " towns and has stepped up employment to its highest peak since 1929, Benefits from the defense program are being felt in hundreds o f industrial towns and cities, from the manufae taring plant down to the worker’s home. Merchants are happy as their cash registers ring more frequently with larger sales recorded, banks are doing more business, real estate is in demand, new construction, is expand­ ing and utility services are being en larged and improved, Yet, despite this all-time record peak of. industrial activity, government -spending for. national defense'is es timated at $35,000,000,000 during, the next half decade which is double the aipount already appropriated, which means that not for four or five years Will, government spending be as low *as:-it is today,'and two years hence national defense will be the biggest industry in the UnitedoStates,' Aviation and steel have led this in­ dustrial expansion, with the machine tool industry, new building construc­ tion and rubber following closely be­ hind. • Steel is' going mainly into arma-. ments and near Ravenna,. in the ^Northeastern Ohio industrial area, the government is building a $14,000,000 arsenal that will be close to the steel supply. Construction, is already well under way^and $29,000,000 is allocated to tools and supplies for this ordnance plant. t Republic Steel will rebuild its five Youngstown furnaces and has a large improvement program under way at Canton. Copperweld Steel Co., of War­ ren, is spending $1,000,000 to house a new 40-ton electric furnace, and o.ther plant improvements in that dis­ trict alre costing $600,000. Work'has started at Cleveland on the government’s . $8,000,000 ^aviation research laboratory.' Curtiss-Wright is building a $10,000,000 airplane fac­ tory at Columbus and Wright Aero­ nautical Corp., a $30,000,000 ,motor- making unit in Cincinnati. Rubber companies have reported more than $22,000,000 worth of orders for mat­ erials for the U. S. mechanized fight­ ing forces. Like the automobile plains, they are doing double duty by main­ taining production of their products used in peacetime pursuits without in­ terferingwith defense production. The tire and rubber companies must provide the 22,600,000 new casings needed fo r the 4,500,000 new cars the automobile makers expect to run off the assembly lines this year, close to 37,000,000 tires for the replacement market and ..one million for export trade which represents a small gain over 1940 output, Production of thou­ sands of othor consumer products will be maintained at the same time. Labor statisticians declare that jobs are opening up at the rate o f 500,000 a month and that by December, 1941, 6,000,000 more persons will ibe at work. The American Federation of Labor estimates that 46,030,009 per­ sons have jobs today. This is the larg­ est number in history, with the excep­ tion o f a period in 1929,, when em- | A NABOTHAT STANDS -J I FQFJGOQEk , | [FUlWfTWE 1 BUDGET PLAN AVAILABLE j Adair’s I N» Detroit St. * WWWHMHWIWlHiWHHtWIMMMtlltHH ^rrrrrr-Tiri Xenia; O.

Unemploy­ ment figures, are greater now than in 1929 because o f the increase in pJKfiation. p itta* defense work grows and em­ ployment picks up, living costs move higher as retailers add increases in wholesale cost to the over-the-counter prices. Retailers declare they have carried the wholesale price advances for some time, especially when the volume o f sales was heavy. Now that the volume has declined, they are passing their added costs along to the consumer,, The year 1941 may break all. retail merchandising records and merchants in defense production areas, are stock­ ing up to meet what they believe will be their best 12-month period. Retail sales for 1941 are expected to surpass the 1949 national estimate o f $44t- 637,000,000. Nation-wide retail sales in 1929 were $48,330,000,000; ip 1937 they ■ totaled $39,933,000,000 and the low year, 1933, the total was $25,037,- 000,000. , Yes, national defense heralds a boom year for 1941. With it will come disputes .between capital and labor, higher prices and more taxes. There' will also come .more rumored threats o f aggression by those who would seek to take away our privileges o f .'.‘life, liberty and the pursuit o f hap­ piness” . This tremendous effort to keep our country a step a head of the designs o f those who are envious of our good fortune and greedy for the material wealth we have accumulated can be stimulated by the individual effort of every citizen. There is work, to do. -Selfish demands must he temp­ ered, problems solved adequately, bias discouraged. The "nil for one” spirit must prevail to bring this program to successful fulfillment. No dictator or combination of dictators will dare touch our possessions or those we pro­ tect when the eagle screams.

GOLDEN TEXT—Abstain Jroro every form of evil/—I Thessalonlans 5:22, R. V. ' Culls -74)0 down "Responsible fo r the drunkards of my community? Not me; I am against the use of intoxicating liq-. uors.” Such is the answer Christian^ men and women would probably make if faced with that accusation. But wait! Responsibility means more than just rqfrailiing oneself or speaking against "booze” ' in a church meeting, Before we finish, the study of our lesson, we may ibid ourselves guilty of the charge, .and needing to ask forgiveness, and see the need of bringing forth,works meet unto repentance. We hear God's Word telling us: I. Do Not Tempt Your Neighbor (Hab. 2:15). God is very severe in judgment upon those who tempt others. Of course He condemns the one who gives another a . drink, of liquor. Nothing could be more’ despicable than thus to start a man or woman on the way to a drunkard’s grave, There can be no question about the guilt of the one who makes the stuff and the one who sells it. But be­ yond that, those are guilty who share in the profits from such a busi­ ness, who rent their buildings for the manufacture or sale of liquor, who vote to legalize its sale or sup­ port politicians who do such things; in fact, everyone who encourages; condones, or in any way profits, whether directly or indirectly, from ‘‘the traffic/’ Are you still "not guilty” ? . II. Do Not Fail Your Brother (Gen. 4:9-12). Everyone who says,. "Am I my brother’s keeper?” classes 'himself with the murderer Gain. Certainly _I_am my brother’s keeper. This is_ the positive side of the matter. It is not enough that I do not tempt my brother. The questionis: “ Have I neglected to do anything that I could and should have done to save him?” 'That mrises it my positive busi­ ness to eliminate every possible temptation. It. means that the Christian is'vitally concerned about- the taverns, road houses, dance halls, and what yiot, which entrap and destroy our young people. It is not enough to passively lament their -presence; - we must actively seek their removal. It can be done, and is being done all over the land- i l l . Do Not Offend Children (Mark . 9:42). The Lord holds His followers to a high measure ot responsibility re­ garding the children whose lives they touch, whether they be in their own family, oy in the community in which they live. ■- Children are innocent until their elders make them otherwise. In their innocency they ore trustful and ready to learn. Their knowledge of the right way to live is received from their .parents and other grown­ ups, and (mark it well!) they learn more from what we do than from what-we spy. - 0 Here is the question each one of us should honestly face right now: "How does my daily walk influence the children who see m e ? " Let us answer that in' the light of verse 42. IV. Abstain From Evil—Judgment Is Coming .(Mark 9:43-48; I Thess. 5:22). The Christian is called to abstain from "all appearance of evil" or, as the Revised Version puts it, “ every form of evil" (I Thess. 5:22). That may call for the sternest kind of self-denial (Mark 9:43-47), but why npt? We do not follow a Christ who sought for Himself the way d! ease or comfort. He gave Himself Iff complete and willing sacrifice, going even to the death of Calvary’s tree for us, Do we then falter and seek fhe easy way? fh g fact that there is a day of judgment to come is something to remember, but may we not stress the other side of the truth. "The very sternness of our Lord's* stric­ tures regarding the importance of self-denial only serves to enhance the value of the privilege we enjoy in, being citizens of the kingdom of God. If it is worth the loss of a hand, a foot, or an eye to gain that life, then, In view of the great value we place on these members of our bodies, how great must be our di­ vine privilege. Chrietiasiily is not merely a negative religion, but it takes the negative similes to show us the positive glories" (Dr. John W. Bradbury). a s s God Send Us Men God send us men with hearts ablaze, A)1 truth to love, all wrong to hate; j These are the patriots nations need, J These are the bulwarks of the : state. —Anon. ^ ISTOECBITtR IF 90 WNTQWN ^ Dill pttUci locutionfive* you . ««»yact*»i toallpathofCin- cinnatl— and! the ideal ao* commodatkmi ft the Palace wiHmake yourWritdelightM.

I New “DreamHighway” Free Of Liquor It is interesting to watch the kind o f buildings which appear on a new highway, It is essential, that gasoline be purchased conveniently, Therefore, gas stations quickly spring up. Next come refreshment stands. Too fre­ quently these are "road houses” which increase the number o f fatal accidents on the road. A new highway, costing $70,000,001 connecting the vicinity o f Harrisbunf with Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, wil have every feature known to scieac. to make it safe. Moreover, the Penn sylvania Turnpike Commission has dC' creed that there shall be no estab­ lishments on this "dream highway’ where intoxicating beverages 'may be sold. The commission does not want the safety o f the highway endangered by drinking drivers. What Experience Showed Re Alcohol > and Venereal Disease -C. W. Stiles, Ph. D., LL.D., M.D., D.Sc., specialist in hygienics, zoologist professor o f zoology and assistant surgeon in United States Public Health Service", 1910-1930, lecturer at Johns Hopkins since 1897, gave his convictions on the Prohibition subject and his findings as to the relation of alcoholic beverages and venereal disease, saying: “ At one time I was opposed to Pro­ hibition in principle, but some years ago was thoroughly persuaded that it is an economic, public health and hu­ manitarian necessity.' The only change if any, in my opinion, is a stronger conviction in favor o f Prohibition.

McSparron, Philadelphia, and Master p f ‘the Pennsylvania State Grange, said, “ We made a very back­ ward step in repealing it because people o f the twentieth century can­ not safely use alcohol as a beverage.” “ The best defense our nation can have is the blessing o f God upon pur activities,” he continued, “ This will come again when wo return to the type o f morals our forefathers gave us.” I Early Ohio History IHHW r I .4 Doctor’s Belief Self-discipline is good for body and soul-, in the opinion o f Dr: William Brady, widely recorgnized medical columnist, who wrote recently: “ When I was a boy my mother was an active, perhaps, a militant member o f the W. C, T. U. and naturally I gave her a solemn pledge to abstain from alcohol and tobacco/ until I grew up. Naturally, -too, I kept that pledge. This country today needs more, mothers who ask their children to give that pledge. . “ Aside from the unquestioned harm, either tobacco or alcohol does to child­ ren, and we are all children until we attain mature development . . . the exercise in self-discipline a child gets from keeping^such a pledge is good The third regular session o f the Ohio Legislature opened December. 4f 1804, and adjourned February 22, 1805. The presidential election in Novem­ ber, 1804, when Thomas Jefferson was elected fo r his second term, was the first in. which Ohio participated. Gov­ ernor Tiffin gave official notice to the Legislature that William Goforth, James Pritchard and Nathaniel Massie were the successful presidential' elect? ors chosen, and by resolution, they, were allowed the use o f the room o f the House o f Representatives in which to meet. They cast their vote for Jefferson, whose second' inauguration took place the following March. Mas­ sie, later governor o f Ohio, was men­ tioned frequently. Goforth was a member o f the Territorial legislature and also o f the Constitutional Conven­ tion. Pritchard had also been-a mem­ ber o f the Territorial legislature, so all three were men o f prominence, Massie o f Chillicothe, was allowed twenty-five dollars,- Pritchard sixty dollars, and Goforth, fifty dollars com­ pensation. The establishment o f a university at Athens, the’ preliminaries for which had been started by the Territorial legislature, was revived by the report o f Gen. Rufus Putnam o f the sale o f lands set aside for a university fund. A new criminal code was formed, The death' penalty was inflicted for five, different crimes—treason against the state, murder, rape, malicious maiming and arson with malice where life was destroyed or put in jeopardy. A fine o f $1000.00 and a prison sen­ tence o f two weeks* was the penalty for manslaughter.
