Clifford Davey, q young man en-
ployed as an electrician at Madison
Lake, was arrested by Police Chief
Klugherz on the charge of speeding
with a motor cycle on North Fifth
street, He pleaded guilty In the
police court this morning and was
fined ten dollars by Judge Comstock.
Davey told the Judge that the traffic
officer had informed him that. he
could 70 as fast as he pleased be-
tween crossings, II he slowed down
at crossings. +. v. Waters, the traf-
flc officer, was not at hand to make
any statement with regard TO what
he told the young man, but Judge
Comstock said the law must be
obeyed, and even II the traffic Off
Ger actually said that. 1t would not
change the law. Chief Klugherz
said the man was going at the rate
of about forty miles an hour. The
chief carries stop-watch, with
which to make a test of such cases.
What Law Forbids.
Judge Comstock told the young
man that the law forbade his going
faster than twenty-five miles an hour
anywhere; that he must not go fast
er than fifteen niles an hour in
residence districts; that he must not
go faster than twelve miles an hour
In congested districts, not more than
eight miles an hour while turning
street corners. The law also re-
quired due care on the part OF the
person driving the vehicle at all
times. II was a rule of this court
that due care required that the
driver OF motor car or motor cycle,
while turning from any of the cross
streets, upon Front street or -ipon
any street where the street cars
ran should not go faster than six
miles an hour. ......... .. -. j.
Chief Klugherz said he had receiv-
ed numerous complaints that many
motor cyclists and automobiles had
been using North Fifth street as a,
speedway. He remarked today that
this would have to be stopped, and
arrests would continue until It was
stopped. IL. ....
Davey was before the same court
a short time ago on the charge OF
speeding and his case was continued
TO July l., to see what could be done
with him by placing him on proBa.

NEUTRALITY IN OFFICE HOURS.

Here is a notice that is being posted
in many business Offices in New York
City:
In compliance with the expressed
and published desire OF our President.
that we endeavor to maintain an atti-
tude Of neutrality toward the existing
situation in Europe, even in our ordi'
nary daily intercourse, We advise per.
sons calling at this office that we will
not discuss this subject with them.
We rejoice to be Americans, in the
enjoyments Of the blessings Of peace
and liberty.
This is evidence not only of patriot
ism, but Of common sense. No bust
ness man wants to waste his time
arguing the infinitely debatable points
of war. No business man wants tt
run the risk Of antagonizing friends
and patrons by embarking in discus
sion that is loaded with dynamite
with the outer harbor full of floating
bombs.
There might be considerable say
ing in time, good nature and business
efficiency if a similar notice Wer
posted generally.

Whatever may be said of the mill
tary necessity of excluding correspon-
dents from the area of hostilities, and
with a censorship the necessity is not
very apparent, from humanitarian
point of view it must be accounted a
misfortune. Already grave charges OF
barbarity are being made on all sides,
and the world has not. and is not like
ly to have, any means of determining
their truth.
The century during which the press
had a chance to tell the truth about
warfare was a century of increasing
amelioration of it's hardships and of
increasing regard for public opinion.
There is a real danger that without
such a check much of the ground gain
ed by humanitarian effort and interna-
tional agreement will be lost. No mat
ter how civilized nation may be in
peace, it cannot be trusted to remain
civilized in war, and the domination OF
men trained to militarism and unre-
strained by fear Of exposure, leads
easily and naturally into shocking
abuses
The ugliest part of war is the stuff
ering of the people of an invaded coun-
try: at best these must be terrible, |
and an invading army is always &C.
cused of gross abuses. To meet such !,
accusations the testimony of fair-mind-
ed and competent correspondents
would be of real value, even if they
did not publish word till all was
over.

legislative assembly having given the

ors the Importance of this great
question to the end that the same may

16. We earnestly favor a policy of
strict enforcement Of the prohibition

flag END RELIGION"

The heading above was the theme O
the evening service at the Congrega
tional church last Sunday night. The
text was from Isaiah AZ; 1917. which
speaks of a man who takes tree
burns part of it in the fire, warns
himself by it, ETC., and of the residue
thereof he maketh a God" This, the
Reverend Lyon used to illustrate what
he called "fag-end religion
Very nicely and forcefully he called
attention to the fact of how too many
give much of their time to society, to
business, to recreation and to intel.
lectual attainment, and how, some OF
the time was spent in idleness, and
how very little time was really given
to worship and religion.
People" he said, never have a mo-
ment to themselves" recreation be-
comes a dissipation. Many of the
books and magazines he believed to be
next to worthless; and a lack of
church attendance marks the begin
ming of an irreilgious life. He spoke
also of Sunday amusement and Sun
day recreation as an alarming en-
croachment upon Divine worship. Call
ing attention to the customs of the
Jews he said that they gave the best
of everything to God; the best of their
focks, the best of their fruits, the best
of their families. Now days, he add
ed, this is reversed and only the resi-
due taht is left is given to God and
religion.
The people OF Europe flew at each
others threats because theirs was
only "fag-end religion" And he has
tened to add that were we in Europe,
or was the war on in this country, we
would be doing the same thing, for
ours, as well, is largely of the fag-end
SORT
Making use of the oft-heard saying,
1--WE get out only in the measure of
our putting in to thing" Mr.. Lyon
very we'll illustrated the point by mag
lining two men going into the woods
for material for god. The enc who
would take up the first stick he came
to and set it up with but little work |
upo nit would not get the enjoyment
out of his god as the one who picked
his tree carefully and carved it the
more skillfully.
The address was good throughout |
and the manner Of delivery excellent. |
The pity is that too few were present

dren was excellent. His story Of the
tramp who came to his door asking
for something to eat, and the admis-
sion, when asked of he had to beg be-
cause there was no work, that 1t was
not because there was no work but be-
cause he was not fit to work, was a
point worth while. This very truth
is evident on every hand. There is
not a lack Of opportunity any where,
but a lack of fitness on the part Of the
individual to fill the places.

M. e. CHURCH NOTES.

Rev. C. E. Vermilya, pastor of the
NJ. E. Church spoke Sunday morning
from the theme: what Shall we
Think of Holiness or Sanctihcation ?"
The text was from the Book of He
brews, and the Scripture lesson from
Ephesians. The text in part was,
Wherefore Let us Press on to Per-
lection" The last word, the pastor
said, might be interpreted, Maturity.
In his Introduction he quoted what
Wesley had to say as to Justification
coming before Sanctifcation. It seems
that the Reverend holds to the idea
that the experience mentioned is one
of growth or development instead Of
an instantaneous work. This is
somewhat in contradiction to the
teaching of some of the Bishops of the
church, and also contrary to the teach
ing Of many of the ministers.
, To substantiate his point, Mr.. Yer
milya called attention to Christ's H.
illustration, First the blade, then the
ear, then the full corn in the ear" He
also mentioned Christ's words to Pc
Yer, Satan hath desired to have thee
that he may siftt thee as wheat, but
\ have prayed for thee that thy faith
fail not" etc. peter, said Mr.. Yer
milya, moved out and on to a more
perfect state where he was better
able to master himself. It takes q
man who is able to take possession Of
himself to win in the Christian life"
It seems that this quite wa!
from the old standards Of Methodism
= Methodists used to teach, and man!
do yet, that the experience Of sanctifi
cation was separate and distinct ant
instantaneous work of grace, and in
stead of the teaching that man ha'
to master himself they taught-an'
mduy uO ycL-CudL ZIG HuOlC ludILCI "
the life depended not upon the mas
terry of self but the entire abandon
ment to the will of God and a submis
sion to Him. The old teaching wa
that God could remove the evil out G
the life as easily as he could forgiv
the actual transgression; and afte
the emptying out of the old life an
= cleaning up of the temple, that Go
could come in and set up therein hi
rightful Kingdom so that out of tn
heart-which we understand to mea
the mind, the affections, etc.-woul
spring good and not evil. "Fille
with all the fullness of Cod" Or 9
one writer in Scripture puts it, IN
life is hid with Christ in God" Or Z
John puts it, IF man is born of &C
he cannot sim" The question natu
ally arises, are Methodists revisir
their theology, and if so is the old
new nearer right.
The pastors address to the Oh
