A delegation from the National
Disabled Soldiers League, which
recently convened in Washington.
headed by John I. Nolan. national
commander of the league, was
barred from admission to the meet
ing, the organization going into ex-
ec1tiye session to prevent heckling.

ixation specifically, but with obvl-
ously plain reference to it's rival

The convention at Detroit. Judge
Marx said. had received the indorse-
ment of Marshal Foch. Gen. Per-

The blame for the inadequate hos
pital facilities for the care of the
disabled he laid at the door of Con-

ago to make any appropriation.
The action of the disabled vet
Grams at Detroit in invading the
Socialist convention meeting there

Lawlessness That is
Rampant in Country and
City. Sunday School
Convention Held.

Just a few lines to let you and
YOUR readers hear from this section
again.
We have just passed through two
weeks of rain and wet weather, with
practically no farm work done. Mr..
Boil Weevil has had the lead during
this time but today the sun is shin
ing beautifully and we are blowing,
so we are going to give Mr.. Weevil
some trouble this week if the sun
continues to shine.
Right now I am inclined to say
that these troublesome and perilous
times would not exist, if it were not
for d~isobedience of our people in the
past. Sin is the cause of all this
trouble and we can not reasonably
expect better times until u people
get nearer to God and leave off so
much of the damnable social func-
lions that are in every country, town
and city, that have neither fear OF
punishment nor hope of reward, and
not even eye or ear to the commands
of u Heavenly Father. We can not
expect better times until u people
get better. We all know what hap
pened to the cities of Sodom and Go
morrah in olden times for the sins
Of the people, and as I see it now we
have numbers of cities today in the
world in which the morals of the an
cient cities already mentioned were
a credit to. Then how car we expect
better times in the world without bet
ter people in it.
Take up a daily paper, if you
please, and we readily see in cold
print the heading of all sorts of crime
such as murder committed by both
sexes, ard robbery, gambling Of
many kinds, bootlegging and whis-
KEY smuggling and selling against the
law of God and country, and but, few
of the number punished by laws of
the country, for such crimes, but as
sure as the God in the eternal heav-
ems, they are to meet their just re-
wards when they are called hence for
the final reckoning at the last day.
The country is full of moonshine
whiskey makers and law breakers and
