By REV. T. J. SIMONS

treatment in public OF your brother is
a greeting of love and h~elpfulness, a
real spirit of sacrafice and rue char
fly. The brother is the n of blood
and tongue and country, and the one
in equal social station and wealth.
But il Is important to 80 treat
we'll the others. The stranger SO to
speak. The disinterested good treat
ment is the kind that shows the love
of God most conspicuously and surely.
TO be sure just good treatment is a
shallow thing IL II is not prompted by
love. Love must be the motive of 1t.
And of course one will have this mo-
tive in the case of the neighbor. The
test comes In the treatment of and the
sincereity towards the stranger.
There is some one harder still to
love, and that Is ones enemy. 1t is not
the imaginary enemy that must be
overcome by love, but the n that
you know about. The n that shows
himself to be an enemy, an enemy
without a cause. III you do not love
your enemy you are not better h q
the most disposed OF mankind. The
heathen love their friends-the best
of the heather at least.
There are two kinds OF enemies.
The one In spirit and the n who
manifests his hatred. The n who
makes his hatred count. The malisc-
ious enemy, the n who hates with
out a cause and ~persecutes for the
very love of the action, who likes TO
torment for the pleasurable sport he
gets out of 1t. Loving this n is a
demonstration Of the love Of God.
| This Is what makes one a Son Of God.
| This is just what Jesus Christ did
in proving himself to be "The only
| begotten from the Father" st. John
SAYS while we we're yet sinners
| Christ died for u.s."
There is one thing more for perfec-
ton. II Is not SO hard to assume a
passive attitude towards an active en-
envy as to manifest an actively bene-
violent one. For ones W self there
is nothing better and more strength
ening end sustaining in the love that
is manhood and womanhcoc than To
pray for an enemy. This Is just what
Jesus did when he was being nailed 70
the cross by two kinds Of m~urderers
the knowing and the unknowing
They both knew and they did mo-
know. They were all influenced II
part by ignorance. His last words
about them were Father forgive then
for they know not what they de-" II
this is perfection, the perfection o
the love OF God in the Son OF God
He who thus lives and thus prays 4
perfect and IL the o OF God.

PERFECTION in sONsHrp

1t Is a natural instinct for one to
want to produce and 1t is a violation
OF nature to altogether suppress the
instinct. The only possibility Of per-
feet production Is in reproduction, !. Q.
the bringing into existence a likeness
of ones self. The son is the most
perfect copy Of the man. The son or
the daughter is the most perfect copy
of the mother. The son and daughter
are the most perfect copies OF the
father and mother.
Christ is the perfect likeness of God.
John, the writer OF the fourth gospel
speaks Of him as "the only begotter
from the Father" Adam was q per-
feet production of God alone. Eve
was a perfect reproduction of God in
q double way of creation-mediate
and immediate. When God left his
greatest work, humanity with moral
sense, to propagate itself a faint en-
tered in. The faint is sin and the
likeness OF God is marred In its per-
lection. The only way for the faint
to be taken out is by a new creation.
God works backward to the first form
The Virgin Mary is his only agent and
Lut TdCt mas Ill CAdAuPlC III tuC Vii ADt'
So the perfecting process must take
place In the rae by God working
alone in the individual. Christ must
be born in each n for one to be
perfect. 1t Is the creative power OF
God that transforms.
The secret Of the power Of God In
his regeneration of the soul is in His
love. It Is love that makes anew. II
Ia love that makes one into the per-
feet likeness Of God. II Is God in his
love that makes the perfect man and
the perfect woman. The one who II
| the love Of God loves God makes fol
| himself God his father and allows Coz
| to recreate him his SON, His wi of
| spring with eternal life.
And mind you this does not meal
| some favored one. Any one Is tn
word. Isaiah said whatsoever VII
let him take OF the water of life free
iy." John, the apostle said "Whosoev
l err belieyeth on him hath eternal Life
Jesus said HE maketh his son to ris
on the evil and the good, and sendet
rain on the just and the unjust"
But you should inquire what is tn
proof that one has the perfect love G
God within him? What Is the man
Hesitation Of 1t? Or what is the thfnl
II IL be in one, that will demonstrat
its active possession? 1t Is shown !
the WY you treat people. 1t Is
very proper and delightful thing
greet with cheer and sincerity you
brother. And of course you have dol
SO in your W household. Else 600

FARMERS EDUCATIONAL AND
COOPERATIVE UNION Of AMERICA

In answer to the article headed
some facts on Co. Agent Tax" which
appeared in the Miller Press and other
papers October Itch, 1922.
First of ali, we u the article
itself was written by the County Agent
or some n for him, for the sole pur-
pose of procuring support for the
appropriation for the County Agent
that he may have a job.
Second, while $2S50.0O doesn't seem
so very large, yet It Is altogether too
much considering the actual value re-
ceived by the farmers for the expendi-
ture.
Third, If the law lnder which this
Co. Agent machine operates Is so con-
stituted that Hand County's share of
federal and state appropriations are
paid towards other counties of the
state, then 1t is constitutionally wrong
in this, II is taxation without repre-
s~entation and the farmers should see
to it at the coming session of the leg
Is wiped of the statute books.
While 22c seems insignificant we
believe that the total amount expend-
ed for eggs will do more good to the
undernourished children In our
schools, according to the county
nurses report" than to the one per-
son, Co. Agent.
And by the way the Co. Nurses sal
airy might be the means Of bringing
many more underweight and under
nourished school children up to the
standard.
In conclusion the writer OF the
above article has tried to make this
expenditure look so small and insig-
nificant to the voters, yet do you real
ize that ii is taking under existing
prices and conditions one of Hand
County farms each year to maintain
this County Agent machine. And one
poor farmer each year has to go to
the wall.
II takes a NO vote on the smallest
ballot in the bunch to scrap this Co.
Agent machine, November 7th, 1922.
Let's send it to the scrap pile, boys.

VOTE YES" ON
COUNTY AGENT
Keep Hand C0unty's Reputation As
The Foremost County In
The State

The voters of Hand County will be
called upon November 7th to deter
mine whether Or not Hand County re-
tains Cooperative Agricultural Ex-
tension work; whether or not this
county which has for the past three
years outclassed all counties at the
State Fair will remain in the list of
progressive counties of South Dakota
or take a backward step.
~Forty-nine counties in South Dako-
Ia now employ County Agents. This
development has not come all at once
but has grown gradually since 1916.
If County Agent work vas not giving
value received 1t could not have
spread over South Dakota as it has
and received the support of the ma
jority of the best and most progress
sive farmers familiar with it.
The instigators of the movement to
do away with County Agent work
would have Hand County people be-
lieve that their motive is tax reduc-
ton. They would deny farmers the
right to say that a very small portion
of their total taxes shall be utilized
i'm lettering farm conditions, instruct
Ing the boys and girls in practical
farm problems and bringing the latest
information on home work to the wo-
men OF the county. The opposition
does not criticize the accomplishments
of the County Agent Office. They cry
tax reductions and begin on the small
est tax cost of the entire tax budget,
a fund that is utilized almost entire
ly for farmers benefit. &c of a total
of S77.5S per quarter.
The County appropriation Is $3.50.
Some would have the people believe
thai the cost is greater. One need
only call upon the County Auditor for
verification or refer to the proceedings
of the County Commissioners. To
this $2850.00 the State adds so per
cent or $4,000 and the Federal Gov
eminent S480.00 This fund is placed
I'm the State Treasury and checks is
sued only after being o. KID. by the
State College authorities, the State
Auditor and the Governor.
The cost of the work on each quar-
ter section is only &c, Or SIC on every
$4,000 taxes paid, or Gle on a taxable
valuation of $1,000 90.
Citizens of Hand County cannot af-
ford to take this backward step. This
county with it's consistent winnings
at the State Fair has made an envi-
able reputation. 1t occupies a high
place in South Dakota agriculture
Vote YES" on November 7th and
keep it in the position il is in. Let us
