think this is an insult to the good

it is no disgrace to live on farm
In fact it is grace, for the purest,

people in all the world are to be

farms is where you will find the
real charity Of Christ existing, and
it is high time for the world to
know thai civilization does not con-

beaten garments ofttimes beat hearts
Of the purest gold, while sin and
vice rides by in shiny limousines.

The Morgan County Democrat,
Dear Editor:
Once upon a time. young man
Tived in the much derided rural dis
trict of old Morgan county. Like
the hero in Horatio Alger, he want
ed to become a big man, leader in
some field Of life, so he decided to
become a soldier Of fortune, and
shook off the mud ofe the rural dis
trict from his shoes, put on a white
collar, and turned his face toward
town, and in a little while we be-
held 'the worlds gift to journal
ISM An embryonic writer sprang
up in our midst One day, in look
ing through the copious library o.
cne certain newspaper, (no need tc
mention name, but if you point, I'll
whistle) he read about a man NAM
ed Horace Greeley who said: "Go
West, Young Man, Go West" So
he turned his face toward the
Golden Gate" to tell Atlas how to
run the WORTH. Jul It louIu oul
that all that glitters is not gold
even in the gold fields Of the west,
so true to the old adage "all chick
ems come home to roost" he came
back home to good old Morgan
county, and reconciled himself to
the position as associate editor Of g
small town weekly, dedicated to the
propagation of the Republican par
tvs doctrines, its accomplishments
the prosperity OF which Mr.. Hoove"
talked so much in 1928, and the
findings of his thousand and one
commissions, especially the master
piece of them all, the hand-picked
commission of Mr.. Hoover himself,
namely the 'Wickersham" commis
sion, which had to humble the
president by telling him that pro
hibition which he used as bait for
his election cannot be enforced
He spoke about Mr.. Secrest re-
ferring to the Italian Renaissance
in his talk at the Democratic rally,
and cannot figure out how Mr.. Sc
sance with the Democratic party
Of course we are not surprised that
a Republican could not understand
the reference. Mr.. Secrest is an
educated man. and Of course know
ing rhetoric, made use of what is
known in rhetoric as "a figure OF
speech" What the speaker said i'll
short is this: That just as there
was a Renaissance, re-birth IN
Europe and throughout Italy es-
pecially, of new desire for 4
change, from the dry study Of
logic, theology and philosophy, to a
study Of the Latin and Greek class
les, so the people today want mod
ern Renaissance, a political re-birth
from the dry sophistry and empty
theories of Republicanism to the
sound, common-sense doctrines OF
Democracy, that will bring about
the economic rehabilitation of the
country after about ten years of Re-
publican paroxysm. OF course this
use of English rhetoric was a little
too deep for a Republican reporter.
Perhaps, he expected the secreted
dictaphone away up there in the
corner of the Morris building to
have enough brains to explain this
for him.

ments will live forever emblazened

CANDHI STARTS
HUNGER STRIKE
AGAINST BRITAIN

BOMBAY. Sept. 90 U.P)-The
Mahatma NJ. K. Gandhl, an "a
pound man in loin clcth, staked
his frail, brown body and his life
against edicts of the British gov
eminent today in hunger strike"
Gandhi started his strike unto
death" after his noon meal today
at Terovda prison, where he. had
been a prisoner of the Indian gov
.ernment at the pleasure of his ma
iesty, the king emperor. He was
technically freed just before he be-
gan his fast but the government
did not remove him against his
will.
With trembling hands, Mahadeo
Desai, Gandhis faithful secretary
and fellow prisoner, handed the
Mahatma his usual glass of lemon
juice mixed with sodium carbonate
soon after the last meal. Gandhi,
Desai and Vallabhat Patel, ex-
president of the Indian Nationalist
congress and also prisoner, prayed
/ together when Gandhi announced
that the fast had commenced.
1t was learned officially that
Gandhi declined to spend the hun
ger strike at private residence, as
the government suggested, in view
of the restrictions involved.
The Mahatma struck against the
British settlement of the communal
problem. Reduction of his fruit
and goats milk diet and limited ex-
ercise prepared him for the fast and
reduced his weight from 90 to "a
pounds.
The little brown man, worship
ped as saint by millions, regard
ed his strike as a call from God.

In 178o. Its curriculum included letters read

Raikes school was followed by another In
