REPUBLICAN PARTY
FIRST TO SEE HER
AS A HUMAN BEING
That Is Why Mrs. w. G,
Watt of Ohio Serves Un-
der the Flag of the
C. o. P.
Has Sublime Faith In Future

Il am a Republican because it
was the Republican party which
gave me the right to be anything,
the party which was the first to
recognize me as an elector, a
citizen, a human being" says
Mrs. w. G. Watt. chairman of
the Republican Committee for
Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Adding
The Republican Party has
answered affirmatively, with loud
and unanimous acclaim, the old
mooted question: Are women
people?"
Lest we forget let me note
that it was Republican Congress
which passed the Suffrage
Amendment, and that % of the 80
states that have ratified are
Republican.
Another statistical item that
should be of paramount concern
to women is the fact that there
are fifty times as many children
: employees in the most driving,
Notwithstanding Industries in
Democratic states as there are in
Republican states. This alone
would be argument enough to
make me a Republican for it has
always been the aim of the women
who have fought the fightandhad
the vision to throw their forces
with the cohorts battling for
economic, social and racial better,
ment.
THE past history of the
Grand Old Party" gives us
sublime faith in the future. 1t
has always been the party OF
growth, of progress, of prosperity
To my mind it holds more strictly
to the tenets have enumerated
and gives more promise of then
fulfllment, than any other politi'
cal organization"

|uader way. Immediately the frail lit
lie Salvation Army lassie was placed
under arrest and escorted by crowd
of amused but sympathetic onlookers
to the patrol wagon and thence to the
local Jail, where she spent the night.
The case was taken before the su-
preme court of the state, where even
tually the contention OF the "Army"
was sustained.
Following the decision the entire
corps, led by Colonel Clifford, marched
to the city hall to demand the drums
that had been confiscated by the po-
lice. Twenty-elght Of the offending
"prisoners" were released in the GUS
tody of the corps. From that date to
the present none Of the meetings of
the Salvation Army has been distul bed
by the police. Furthermore, the prece-
dent established has been maintained
In nearly every state in the Union.

his last sermon has been preach
ed, and he has laid down the
book because of the will of God.
He has said, well done, j. c..
Lambert, thou hast kept the
faith, come up higher where
there are no more storms of life
but all peace and happiness is
forever thine Ye Iwriter has
known him for thirty-five years
and it does my soul good to know
that he has always been a man,
a servant of God, a brave man
for the cause of Christ.
He belonged to the Missionary
Baptist Church. He loved his
c hurch and did all in his power,
with the help of God, to break
down all manner of sin.
We in our weak way pray that
the blessings of God rest on the
bereaved wife. Oh, God! be a
guide unto her, every step give
her grace to overcome all, and at
last receive her unto Yourself
and may the blessings OF the
Holy Spirit rest and abide with
his sons and daughters, and may
they turn their eyes and hearts
beavenward for a great and glo'
rious meeting of the sainted ia
ther, and to his churches would
say, think of the many cheerful
words left off that you could have
bestowed on him and how many
times while he was preaching
that you failed to pray Pray
for your shepherds while they
trv to feed the flock May God
save all, is my prayer:
A FRIEND.

days | never heard of such laws
as are being enacted to compel
our daughters to be decent and
clothe themselves decently. Ask
the old men and women if they
ever did. If the wearing of
dresses is distasteful, then lay
them aside and wear pants and
dress like men.
Little girls used to wear pant
elets and they certainly suited
much better than the way they
they dress now. | wrote this be-
cause of the Biloxi, Miss, law.
| guess If it wasn't for a few
sensible, intelligent men to con-
troll things, the female sex would
disgrace themselves more than
we think for. Now. don't get
mad at what I've said. st. Paul
certainly had little sense about
how women ought to do, and
some are disgusting beyond all
reason.
Well, the law and order league
is here and Mr.. Lawless Man had
better take warning and behave
himself. 1t looks like law and
order leagues and laws compell-
ing women 10 dress decently
have become a necessity.
At the close of our civil war
mean negroes, mean white men
and mean white women caused
what is known as the Ku Klux
Klan to be organized. What
for? To suppress immoral and
ungodly conduct and they GER
tainly did it. | believe we are in
a worse condition now than we
were then and nay notion is draS
tic measures will have to ho tnk-
en- before we will have decency
and morality on top again. One
thing helps the immoral crowd no
little, and that is the tendency of
christians to 60 into forbidden
paths and the continual change
of religious worship from one
wave Of doctrine to another.
Religion is the same today as it
was in the days of Christ. but
we don't want 70 so act. That
which suits US we accept and
that that don't suit us we reject
and thus nulify the command of
God and the laws of man.
Well, stick tenatiously to the
church, first. last and all the time,
and all will be well. These peo-
pie who run around and almost
move heaven and earth to get
you to doubt your religion there
is nothing TO, as you will find
out. Worshipping by incanta-
tion and enehantment is not
from God.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
UNCLE TOMS LETTER
txxsssSssssxssxxxx4s<sxxxx

According to Mrs. Grundy, our
local county paper. we have a
law and order league in the good
old county of Grundy. That
means wild caters and booze tot
ers will have to beat shy or face
both the federal and criminal
courts of the county. The high
price of booze is a temptation.
Some men can't stand to take
the risk to make and sell the
stuff. Others love money just as
we'll as the wildcatter and he
makes and he sells his knowledge
of where the still is and me gov
ernment pays him about $50 for
the information. So the Wild
cater and spotter are out for the
money, and one is helping the
government while the other
wants to evade the law.
The government is able to put
down and bring to justice every
law violator and will do it. The
law and order league acts from
principle and not from any hope
of gain. We are nearing elec-
ton day and there is 70 doubt
the whiskey element aims to de-
feat the man who runs for sher'
iff. They believe they will have
the courage to enforce the law,
but | believe they will fall short
of his aims. The radical Whls-
key element is not strongIenough
to elect man, may run on DEM
ocratIc ticket and be defeated.
Plenty of anti-Prohibitionists
will not vote for altman that leans
too stronglyto the liquor element.
They don't propose to let drunk
en- wretches dictate to the coun-
try much longer.
It's awful to read about how
people are doing. 1t does seem
to me no self-respecting lady
would need a law to compel her
dress as a lady should dress.

their little six, eight and ten

Irate citizens had complained bitter
ly Of the Salvation Army and its street
corner meetings and musical services,
but particularly of the bass drums of
the band. Night after night the drums
had been confiscated by the police, but
to no effect. Finally police order
went out to "arrest anyone attempting

Following this Colonel Clifford In an
effort to test the constiturionality OF
the order advertised that upon GER

be held and that upon that occasion
Mrs. Clifford would beat the drum.
AS anticipated, a record breaking

riots which might ensue. At a given
signal Mrs. Clifford gave the drum a re-

Quoted by Rev. G. W. Cox at I'm
ion Grove April 26.
We, the flock of which he was
the shepherd for so many years,
will still hear his voice and,
thanks be to God! his preaching
tho he is still in death, will still
be, and his sermons preached
many years since will be heard
over again in our meditations.

bert, arefull of the grace of God.
called of God to minister unto the
sheep of many ffocks for forty
three years. Yea, we who knew
him best will rehear those SER
mons preached by him and, thank
Godl they will be on our hearts
with more force than when we
heard them first. Is it not the
greatest thing to knew that we
have been blessed with life's
health and strength and been
permitted by the love of our God
for 43 years to look upon the man
of God, so weak in statue and yet
giant for the cause of God to
win souls for the Great Beyond.
Bro. Lambert was a small man
and never weighed over Ito lbs,
but he used his talent all for God.
He was frail, but he grew in
grace until this little frail body
of his could not contain the great
and God. like image that our God
promises them that serve Him in
spirit and in truth, for such God
seeks to serve him.
Bro. Lambert was loved by all
who knew him, always cheerful,
honest and truthful, always re-
spected as a christian gentleman
and a good citizen.
He leaves a wife and ten child
rem to mourn his death. having
six children up there who have
been waving a beckoning hand
for father for many years, but
these six now have papa with
them up there, and we now i'm
agine that seven hands are beck
oning back to mother and sisters
and brothers and singing hosan-
ma to the Lamb, our savior and
king, with husband and papa
leading this song.
To the family | must say. do
not weep over Bro. Lambert,
your husband and father, as one
without hope, but look to God,
the author and finisher of Bro,
Lambert's faith. Look to him as
our brother has and when the
call comes to you, all will be well.
The Lord doeth all things well,
blessed be the name of the Lord!
We know it was sad hour in
which we gave up father, but
SGod has taken him where there
is no more pain or death, but
where all is we'll. Meet him up
there, let not the Lamb of peace
go out but be determined from
now on to meet him over there.
People of Jasper, So. Pittsburg,
Kimball, Battle Creek, Sequat-
chic, Victoria, Inman, Whitwell,
YOU have all lost a friend. Bap-
tist Hill, oh! what a friend and
neighbor you have lost, and one
of the shepherds of your flock,
but, thanks be to God, it is not
that loss of which Bro. Cox
preached Sunday night. This
loss will draw the flock closer
to God instead of scattering the
flock. but you can scatter the
sheep if you care not for your
shepherd. Bro. Lambert fought
a great battle, and went thru
many hardships, but now he has
received crown for his reward,
and what a reward it is! Would
be glad to know all could re-
ceive as great reward as Bro.
Lambert.
His last song has been sung.
