BURIED sin is like covered

A BURIED sin is like covered
THAI spreads and testers meath
painted face;
And no mah's art can heal it evermore,
But only His-the Surgeon's-prom-
ised grace.
Who hides sin is like the hunter who
Once warmed frozen adder with
his breath;
And when he placed it near his heart
it flew
With poisoned fangs and stung that
heart to DEATH
"A sin admitted is nigh half atoned;
And while. the fault is red and fresh
ly done,
If we but drop our eyes and think
tits owned
'Tis half forgiven, half the crown is
won.
But if we Needless let il reek and rot.
Then pile mountain on its grave,
and turn,
With smiles to all the world-that
- - tainted spot
Beneath the mound will never cease
TO burn"
Our dear friend, Rev. C.. O. Smith,
departed our city for brief visit to
his loving wife and friends mt Hutchin-
son, Kan. We pray for his speedy re-
turn. We need him here. We of the
Christian faith know truly he is the
sturgeon" we need to remind us of our
spiritual hypocrisy He chafes our sore
spots-hypocrisy- we can hard
ly sit out his sermons. When our
friends die, we do not call him to ofti-
ciate over their remainS-because our
friends do not always live the Chris
tian, moral life, but often live the un-
Christian, immoral life, and if we call
on Rev. Smith to officiate we will hear
the text, "In hell he opened his eyes,
or so this man lives in your commun-
ity, just so he died" Most of our peo-
pie delight to become members OF
church or secret societies and do eN-
erything that n sinner or profane will
do in private and public, and when we
die our friends want good things to be
said over our remains when we have
not merited such. If the sinner or pro-
fame is to be lauded to heaven after
death, for surely he has not done any
thing to cause the world to think he
ever did Il public or spiritual act TO
gain such reward, what praise is due
the true man who has led spiritual
and moral life in our community
Christian citizens love Rev. Smith
Sinners and hypocriteS fear him like
the devil fears holy water. However,
we wish for him a speedy and safe re-
turn. Here's to Rev. Smith for. the
Christ and moral uplift!

STARS AND A STAR.


When you look at the stars, how
they twinkle and glow;-
In a land far away they are doing
the same.
But one wonderful night, long
time ago,
A star filled the sky with its
beautiful flame.
1t showed the three wise men the
way they must go
To find the Messiah, they had
come far to see.
Bright it shone on the manger, so
humble and low,
Where a fair babe was sleeping,
the Saviour was He.
BY the stars brilliant ray, they saw
the new King,
And fell down before Him and
worshipped Him there.
Then poured out so gladly, the gifts
they did bring
Gold and incense so costly, and
gems rich and rare.
When you look at the stars, and they
twinkle and glow,
Remember the brightest of Beth
lehem's fair morn,
Shining on through the ages, that
all men may know
The way to find Jesus, on Christ
mas day born.

COX READY FOR
HARD CAMPAIGN
Wants No Front Porch
Affair, His Friends
Say

DAYTON, O., July Tn his teIe
gram to the Democratic National con.
Vention accepting the presidential
nomination and thanking the dele
gates for their support, Governor
James N. Cox minated that he Is
ready to make an intensive campaign
in every state.
His close friends said he VIII urge
his political advisers against front
porch" campaign such as Senator
Harding, the Republican presidential
nominee, expects to make at his home
in Marion.
The Governor said, however, that
no plans have been formulated and
the campaign will not be discussed
officially until Democratic national
committee members and other party
leaders return from San Francisco
Although he said he had no intention
of resigning as Governor of Ohio in
order to devote all of his time to the
campaign, he pointed out that Sena
tor Harding had announced he would
not resign from the Senate.
The nomination of Governor Cox
was the talk of the town yesterday
and today. However, excepting for
a picture of the governor on the
front of his newspaper building
there was nothing to indicate that a
Dayton citizen had been chosen for
the highest honor the Democratic
party can give.
Employees of his newspaper early
yesterday sent the governor a huge
bouquet of flowers. Moving pictures
were made of Governor Cox late in
the day when he climbed the steps to
the composing room of his newspaper
to receive congratulations and resolu-
tions of support from his printers
all union men.
In his talk to his newaper en-
ployes Goevrnor Cox said:
The greatest gift that the AL
mighty God can give to any man In

INTO the world under circumstances
which enable him to know the life

tions affecting the National Commit

were adopted with a resolution ex-
pressing the thanks and apprecia.
ton of the convention to the city of
San Francisco.
Chairman Homer Cummings of the
Democratic National Committee said
"The convention reached its result
in truly Democratic manner. The
forces, purposes and opinions, rep
resented by the delegations, had full
play and reached an uncontrolled re-
suit. 1t was a long hard contest, but
it leaves no scars and the candidates
vii. have the united support of the
party"
San Francisco redeemed every
promise that was made in her behalf
and in many respects far exceeded
our expectations. There were some
who doubted the wisdom of holding
national convention on the Pacific
coast. Actual experience, however,
has removed all doubt"
