"Col Hofer and his clique of prosti-
tute protectors" When Christ was
on earth a bunch of whiskered Phari
sees brought him before a woman Of
bad name and reputation. He asked
those without sin to cast the first
stone at her, and in silence wrote on
the sand a few of the pet sins of the
accusers. One by one they sneaked
away and left him and the woman
alone. Instead of having her arrest
ed he sent her away in peace. He
would be denounced today by these
same pharisees as a prostitute pro-
tector, and so would his disciples.
The good ministers can compare our
record with Kellogg's any day, and
make it public.
Little cities like independence and
Lebanon are planning toput in COM

thinking about it.
