Sabbath School Notes.

In the past week the Sabbath
schools Of the county have been called
upon for strong activity in the tenn
pera1lce situation. On October 18th
the voters of Iowa will have the
chance to place an amendment in the
state constitution, forever prohibit
ing the making Of laws which Will
allow Intoxicating liquors to be made
or sold in Iowa. We now have laws
to that effect, but these can be repeal
ed at any session of the legislature.
To cinch the thing just now, the tenn
perance men and women through the
agencies of the church and Sabbath
schools are urged to leave no stone
unturned to win out on election day,
October 18th. @
The Baptist school at Denison is
trying the plan of a combination SER
vice of the preaching and the Sab
bath school. There is no intermis-
sion, no formal dismissal of the
preaching service, but the interlock-
ing of the services in one. So far the
plan is working we'll.
Again and again we refer to the
duty Of looking after the filling up OF
the classes with the former pupils
and new ones. With the summer heat
over the children will be ready to
attend and they must be looked up
and invited.
Sept. 1.-The Shepherd of Captive
Israel. Ezekiel 81.
Those who have kept track of the
lessons of the past few weeks will re-
call that they took up the events just
previous to what is known in Jewish
history as the captivity" This cap
tivity came as a result of the sins OF
the Jews, and as direct punishment
for continued disregard OF the known
commands of God. So there they are
in captivity. to the inhabitants Of Baby
Ion.
The old old story is now brought to
light. Back in Jerusalem and vicinity
where their forefathers had been for
generations these Jews did not ap-
preciate their blessings. The sight
Of the temple, taking part in the re-
ligious exercises did not appeal to
them as any particular things to be
desired in fact the very ordinary OF
life. But now there is a change. These
little esteemed things are no more
part Of daily life. The captives are
among strangers, who know nothing
Of Jewish history, care nothing for
Abraham, take no pride in David rid

Wants New Road
Work Discontinued

senator John Waiter Smith, of MARY
land has proposed plan for incrcas
ing the foot production of the country
by labor conservation with respect to
road construction and road repairs
The senator thinks that all new con.
struction should be suspended IN Mary
land and elsewhere. and tina, only such
repairs is are absolutely necessary "a
prevent deterioration should be- engaged
in By this means hundreds Of thou
sands Of men could be returned 20 tn,
farms and used there until after the har
vests
Il have gwen great deal of thought,
said the senator. TO the question OF
using the great body of men now en-
gagged in road construction and repair
upon our farms. particularly IN Mary
land, where extensive road building il
under way know that road work is
important. that many will regard il as
necessary, but my judgment Is that SIC
should suspend all highway construction
from now until the haryest~ are IN and
should cut down our road repairing to a
minimum
Practically al the men engaged n
road work are taken from farms. II
released, practically all 81 them would
return to the farms And this would
mean an army Of farm laborer- pat to
work where they could contribute more
to the general welfare than " any other
position not excepting the firing line
