THE TRUTH THAT HURTS

is what gives effect to the Cox ar

tion. 1t was terrific in its truth. The
former governor had only to point to
facts that all who follow the course
of events we'll know. The Republican
campaign program has been shown
to have been based on falsity and fol
ly. There was no treasury deficit, as
advertised, but heavy surplus which
has been made legislative asset. De.
Capitalization, wherever applied. has
produced inefficiency and chaos. OF
fees have been parceled out in a way
to amaze everybody and to anger Re.
publicans. disappointment and fail.
ure have been written big over the
whole administration, and there is no.
where an achievement to cheer. This
is not news. 1t is simply the state.
ment of a painful fact which is gen.
orally recognized throughout the
state.

Shows Up In Great Shape
Against The Alumni
In Basket Ball On Saturday
Evening

Giving everybody chance to play
probably lost he basketball game Sat
urday night at the Y. M. G. A. for the
high school, when they were defeated
by team composed of stars of for
mer years by the score of 3S to ~ In
very fast and exciting game.
Maurice Mitchell, one of the main
stays of the Mounts team, spelled
ruin for the high school when in the
second half of the game he tossed
eight fielders and two foul baskets.
He was never in better form and il
seemed only necessary for him to
shoot. Many of the baskets we're
from difficult angles.
The original lineup of the high
school which the alumni seemed un-
able to combat successfully was
changed the middle of the first half,
several substitutes being sent in. AL
though the work of the second string
men was fair. there was not the uni
son that existed among the players at
the start of the game. Team-play was
less noticeable and flashes of form
rarer.
Composed of players who have
worked together frequently, the alum
nj organization was strong. There
was snap and speed that the high
school, after the second string men
had gone in. could not break up, and
this increased as the game progress
ed.
The high school looks very good
this year, despite the fact that four
of last years stars were lost either
by graduation or dropping out. East
man and Blair work harmoniously at
the forward positions and seem to
have developed their basket-shootins

The hoor-work of the former is better
than ever and much ginger is instilled
into the team thereby. Sapp at cen
ter possesses much speed and is good

in the general plan of things when

FARM ADVERTISING BY STATE
(Wooster News.)


The latest official bulletin of the
state board of agriculture has over
five pages of solid type devoted to ad,
yertisements of Ohio farms, giving
full descriptions and locations. No
statements are given in the adyertis,
ing to inform the reader as to who
the advertisers are, but It is stated
that the owners names can be OBJ
tanned by writing to the board of
agriculture, at Columbus.
All of which raises the query In our
minds what right the state has to
give this advertising to favored farm
owners throughout the state. All, or
nearly all, of the counties are repre-.
sented Even II the farm owners pay
for the advertising the idea Is wrong
because the state should not publish
any matter for which IL receives pay
and If the advertisements are insert
ed free, that makes the matter all
The worse, because some farmers
must have pull in some way to gel
: their lands advertised in that way.
II one farmer is entitled to such q
privilege, surely all are, and 1t would
be out of the question for the state
to advertise all of the farms for sale
in the state,
What we would like to know is il
. a certain few are on the inside sufIlc
iently to get this free publicity. Az
ter the secretary of the state board o
agriculture sent advertising to tn,
newspapers of the state for the stat,
fair, agreeing to pay for 1t, but falling
afterwards to do SO. naturally there
. is a suspicion that there might b'
some more free advertising with re
verse benefits.
II certainly Is not fair to give Ger
tain ones this publicity at the ex
pense OF the state. barring othe
farmers and also taking business tha
legitimately belongs TO the newspa
