On last Saturday the body of Rev.
G. L. Hart of Washington, C. H. was
brought here for burial. Rev. Hart
was former pastor of the Baptist
church here. He was loved by all who
knew him, as he always had bright,
cheerful smile and a kind word for
everyone. He died from the effects
of stroke which he suffered several
weeks ago. He is survived by his
widow, two daughters, Mrs. Edith
johnson Of Akron and Mrs. Hazel
Mooney of Denver. Owing to the
closing order prohibiting public gath
erings, a short service was held at the
cemetery, instead of at the church, af-
ter which the body was laid to rest
in Mound Hill cemetery by the side
of his daughter, May, who was bur-
, led here several years ago, during his
pastorate.

This Summer Crisis in War.

An editorial in the June Farm and
Fireside says:
1.-The German doesn t outnumbcr the
allies on the western front. He has
won thousand square miles of French
soil at a fearful toll in lives lost-a
price that he can't afford to pay long.
But ground gained or towns cap
tured mean nothing for the German
unless he can separate the English and
French armies, and deal with them
separately. If he fails to do this, he
has not only lost the greatest battle
of the war, but has lost the war itself.
1.-THE talk of any city being the OBJ
jeetive of the German is misleading.
His plan is to separate the English
from the French, if that can be done,
and outfiank, roll up, rout, and destroy
or capture either or both armies and
the rest of the allies.
Whether the German succeeds in
his purpose depends primarily upon
the defense of the English and French
this summer. If he hasn't separated
/ them before fall he will have lost the
war;
When the fighting begins next
spring we will have such numbers OF
troops in France that it will be pos
! sible not only to drive the German out
of France and Belgium, but to drive
| him far back of the Rhine-and win
the war. This will not be an easy or 8
short job, but we and our allies vii
/ have men and munitions enough to dc
! it -

THE FINANCIAL GIANT.

All fears regarding the financial dis

of the nation s income taxes prove to
have been unfounded. More than
$1,000 100000, twice as much as the
government total receipts for last
year, three times the country s entire
Understanding debt before the war,
four times our annual pre-war govern
ment expenses, as much as the total in
ternal revenue receipts for seven normal
years, was transferred from the ma
tion s purse to the federal treasury
without causing a single financial rip
pie.
In New York city alone, the pay
ments amounted to about $500 900 900

June 10. came and went, like any other
day. The president of the largest bank
in America remarked that the record
breaking payments made through his
bank were not even mentioned in his
hearing by any employee. They were
taken as a matter of course
The whole thing was an impressive
demonstration of the financial resources
of the American people, and the sound.

tremendous financial burden ever as

smoothness and ease.

The Reformer stated months ago that
the best thing to stimulate recruiting
and to wake up people generally in this
country would be to have few bombs
dropped in American dooryards. The
bombs have not yet been forthcoming
but the appearance of German sub
marines off the Atlantic coast has been
worth more than hundred million dol
lar advertising campaign. In the first
two weeks of June $1,000 young men
were enrolled in the naval reserve alone
and the rush continues undated. Since
the beginning of the war the marine
corps has grown from 1852 to $4,000
and it will soon have an authorized
strength of $4,000. The report of heavy
casualties among our fighting marine.
in France has resulted in more applica
tions for that branch of the servic,
than ever before. Our red bloodet
young Americans are not deferred by
German frightfulness. When they heal

Living up to the motto of the Marine
corps, Always faithful Private Ber-
nard Yoakam of Akron, Ohio, now serving
with the e. S marines in France, was
recently cited by his divisional commander
for gallantry while in action. Yoakam
who is only 10 years old was having his
tirst go at the front line trench He had
been given an important order by higher
authority, shortly after he started on
the dangerous mission to deliver to his
captain III the front line. His hand was
torn by Boche bullet, but instead of
hurrylng to a medical dressing station,
ne kept on through the grueling fire until
ne reached the captain and delivered the
message. Private Yoakum enlisted at
AKRON, OHIO, On February 10, 1917. He
received his training at the Marine bar
racks Paris Island, 5. c., and ON account

duty was rewarded with early transfer
