Pastor: J. A. Thos-HazelI, S. T. 3.

The Rev. o. j. Mcleod, pastor of
the Community Church at Dearfield,
preached two extraordinarily strong
sermons from the Peoples pulpit last
Sabbath. His ripeness of scholarship
plus his conservation of life, coupled
with industrial life of the South, can
not but make him a contending force
for righteousness and moral uplift to
the people among whom he will labor
in the colony. We look forward for
great accomplishments under the
leadership of Brother Mcleod at Dear
field.
Rev. ]. A. Thos-Hazell will be away

A HINT TO EDITORS

ANY editor wishing to get into
hot water can easily do so by sug-
gesting that the South is capable
of an occasional mistake in hand
ling the Negro question. The
South prides itself on many
things, but, most of all, it be-
lieves its attitude toward the Ne
gro to be inspired, to partake of
such wonderfully inscrutable
perfection that no man, especial
ly if he lives north of Mason and
Dixon's line, is wise enough to
find a flaw in it.
Some of the keenest and most
conscientious editors of the ma
ton have ventured to suggest
points here and there where the
situation might be improved, but
they were invariably reminded to
keep off of subjects which they
could know nothing about. Let
us hope, therefore, that the South
will justify the supreme rever-
ence it shows for the course it
has selected. Let US hope, it will
ultimately bring peace on earth,
good will toward black and white
men, and that we can all go to
heaven together. Life.
The Colorado statesman., 1916-10-28

MUST PENSION MOTHERS
Attorney General Says Claims Against
County Board Are
Valid.

Madison-The attorney general adj
vised the state board of control that
county boards must appropriate money
to pay claims under the mothers pen
sion law. One-third of the county
boards of the state failed to appropri-
ate money for this purpose last fall.
The attorney general said that certi-
ficates issued under the law for aid to
dependent mothers constituted a valid
claim against the county and that If
the board of supervisors did not ap-
propriate money to meet such claims,
the holders of them could compel pay
ment in court. When the matter is
called to the attention Of the county
boards it is expected they will approp-
riate sufficient funds.
Under the law, aid amounting to SIS
a month may be granted to a mother
with one child. To a mother having
more than one child, additional aid
may be granted, the total amount in
no case to exceed SIS a month for a
child.
