Local Conditions AT The

y ers';;'FBrief' Synopsis Of
DR.. Longs Sermon

At the morning service at the Vine
street Church of Christ, Sunday, the
pastor, Rev. ]. A. Long, spoke on
mt. Vernon's Limping Morale" or
why the Prosecutor, Probate Judge
and Other Officials Need Our Sup
port"
Rev. Long spoke in part as follows:
1t was sorry time in Israel. Ahab
and Jezebel. goddess, unprlncipled,
and without sense Of honor, ruled.
Fear of king and queen had deferred
the people until all sense Of propriety
was jaded. Their lack of conviction
had been their undoing. The prophets
of God had been fugitives for years,
hiding in caves and wilderness, with
price upon their heads.
Elijah, with a flash of determine
ton to be used of God, through the
premer, calls for conyocation of
all the. people. The heart Of the peo.
pie is usually sound If leadership is
adequate. When the people are as.
sembled, king and peasant, powerful
and those without influence, followers
of Baal and adherents of Jehovah;
the mighty Elijah uttered the words
of the text, How long go ye limpihg
between the two sides? If Jehovah be
God follow him; but II Baal then
follow him." l. Kings 1921.
Now, as then, there are but two
sides--right and wrong-light and
darkness spiritual and. the flesh
God and Baal. The issue is quite as
shraply drawn in Mt. Vernon as or
that day at Carmel. The world was
filed with compromise then and 1t i.
now. We may say that this world Il
one vast compromise. 1t hates moth
ing so much as Elijah's choice. The
| world feeds upon laxity and lawless
ness, and to raise ones voice agains
any wrong is to be characterized az
puritanistic and "the troubles of Is
rael."
Be this as it may, l gladly respond
to the clarion call of Gods prophet
Of the past. People of Mt. Vernon
"Why go we limping between the two
! sides?" We live in Ohio's most beau
tiful community and our possibilities
OF progress are only measured by oul
willingness to be used of God in the
fulfilling of his purposes. Why should
there be any reluctance upon our par
to pledge ourselves to q definite
course of action? Life is infinitely
significant when it fulfills itself In
godliness. The character of coming

IS being determined now.
There Is a supremacy in right living.
and we need the crowning OF that su-
premacy now.
"If Jehovah be God, follow him.
Decision has to be made In every
age. Jehovah is "the God and Father
of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ"
He is the God of love, for God is
love" and any so-called devotion apart
from his principles Is spurious. He
Is the God of purity, and he who con-
tributes to the delinquency Of others
is not of God but of the devil. He is
the God and Father of our Lord and
Saviour" and II we are saved we
must follow him." Are we interest
ed in the uplift, the upbuilding and
the genuine well being of our COM
munity? If so, don't line up between
the lines, but line up for God.
''But il Baal, then follow him" Ba-
al is the dedication of power, the
worship OF pleasure. and the pursuit
of sensuality The god Of this world
is the Baal of our day. There are inn
rlications in the happenings OF cur
community that our sense Of honor Is
somewhat iaded. The facts show that
gambling dives are patronized by cit
! izens to whom we have the right to
look for leadership. Knox county Is
better supplied with automobiles than
any county in the state. More than
half million is invested in our coun-
ty in this modern miracle of business
enterprise. They are an asset or a
tragic liability. An asset If employed
in community and kingdom building;
liability that no one can afford to
face If used for sinister purposes.
Rumor insists that automobiles are
being used to convey booze and en-
tice our little girls to lives of in
fanny and shame. The moral lepers
who are contributing to the undoine
of our girls should be indexed, thai
their blighting influence may be elm
mated and their hellishness intoler
able. Self styled blackhanders dare
pollute the mails with threats upor
our officials. We respectable foil
'cuss" the officials If they are dere
lict to duty, why not commend whei
they are faithful? When the pros
ecutor, the probate judge and othe
God.fearing officials do their duty, as

target of the followers of Baal, in the
name of high heaven, citizens, arise

HAIL STORM TAKES
TOLL OF CROPS

Southwestern Barnes county was
devastated by hail storm last Sat
urday afternoon that laid waste
thousands of acres Of fine growing
crop. While we have no full particu-
lars of the storm we are told that: it
was in what is known as the Clark
City neighborhood and that from ten
to eleven sections of crop was COM
pletely wiped out and many other
pieces Of crop badly damaged on the
edge Of the storm. Many farmers in
that neighborhood will have no crop
to harvest this year if reports receiv-
ed here are correct. We hope the un-
fortunate ones had insurance as they
can lily afford to lose their crop, par
ticularly after the heavy loss Of last
year in rust and price. 8. i
