DIFFERENT WESTERN

One of the greatest difficulties ex-
perienced by producers of Western
movies is to get story that is diff
ferent, that gets away from formula.
Tim Mccoy, in his latest Columbia
feature, "The Western Code" show
ing Saturday at the Temple Theatre has
done that.
The story deals with Tins relent-
less pursuit of band of desperate
counterfeiters who hide their real
activities under the mask of the
usual Western bad mans cattle rust
ling, ranch stealing and fast shooting.

tween the hour of 500 and 500 P. M.

weighing IA Lbs and was alive. 1t had
a plug broken out of the side of his
shell in the shape of a horse shoe The
Person who had the turtle was an ex-
pert fisherman bv trade, especially
turtles. 1t is thought that while the
turtle was in the shallow water, a cow
or horse stepped on the turtle break
ing a piece out of its side, leaving it
alive, as turtles are hard to kill. This
was a hard-shell turtle, the kind that
you call Logger head" known as the
Turtle man."

place a Negro in Jail in this city. Last
Monday afternoon Joe Holden, 80 Gil
mer street, was out walking with his
police dog He had the dog held by a
leash, but as is the way with these
large animals, the dog was pulling at
the leash.
A couple of burly white coppers
standing on a corner saw Holden and
the dog and figured that the dog would
not be pulling at the leash So strongly
if Holden owned it. So they arrested
Holden and held the dog in order to
give some white people a chance to
claim the animal.

NOTES FROM CAMP MORGAN
(By Jim McMillen)


Three hundred acres of Morgan
county grazing lands have been re-
claimed in the past few weeks by the
Civil Conservation Corps forces,
stationed at Camp Morgan. A net
work of dams have Deen spread over
several townships, as President
Roosevelt's new prosperity Army
seeks to build back Morgan county
fields and to block Muskingum river
food waters at their source.
Deerfeld township has been the
scene of the past weeks work for
some 1875 men who go each morning
to the job and stay all day, eating
lunch hauled from the camp kitchen.
There are some large dams built in
this vicinity. One stone dam is
some 40 feet long and is constructed
of large blocks of stone cut and
placed to block large gully. Near
this is "fence dam" or small
blockade built of woven saplings
that is over 100 feet in length. In
other places smaller gullies are fill
ed with brush and held in place by
"blanket dams" or brush held down
by stakes and cross saplings. The
foresters in charge of this erosion
work have many different type dams
fitted to all kinds of gullies. Work
this week has been confined chiefly
to the Porter, Nelson, and Gordon
farms in Deerfield township
While work proceeds in the woods
and hills, camp detail is busy
constructing a large mess hall. A
bathhouse has been practically com
pleted, and the frame work will be
up this week end, on the 12O foot
mess-hall. A cement floor was
hand-miXed, last week, for this
large building.
A communication from President
Roosevelt to all G. C. C. workers was
read to the men, Tuesday morning.
The President states that it is the
intention to operate the camps for
another six months. But he requests
that men in the present camps
make an effort, through their friends
or agencies on the outside, to find
employment, in order that another
quota of men can come into the
camps after Christmas, if necessary.
Those who will be unable to find
work, however, are assured Of a
place in the second enlistment.
Most of the men from Camn Nor
gan will be home over the Labor
day holiday, from present indica-
tiOns

David, / Samuel 16:413; Psalm
78:70-72, for Sunday, Sept. g.:
Saul whom Samuel anointed was
a great failure as king; Samuel was
to be used in finding Sauls sue
cessor.
v. 4. "And Samuel did that
which Jehovah spake, and came to
Bethlehem. And the elders Of the
city came to meet him, trembling
and said, CONTEST thou peaceably?"
Bethlehem was one of the best NOR
al towns in the land; out of great
neighborhoods come great men. 1t
had been Samuel's duty to visit
towns to render judgment, hence
there was fear at his coming
This fear was at once silenced as he
announced his purpose in coming to
sacrifice to Jehovah. Before great
decisions are made, it is wise to
wait on the Lord.
V. 5. "Sanctify yourselves and
come with me to the sacrifice. And
he sanctified Jesse and mis- sons and
called them to the sacrifice" Re-
ligion to be effective must reach
others; after one has made his
Christian decision he needs ever and
anon to invite others to join him in
Christian worship, life and service.
Good heritage is a fortune-Jesse's
paternal grandparents were Boaz
and Ruth. Jesus was born of the
lineage of Jesse.
V. 6. "And it came to pass, when
they were come, that he looked on
Eliaz and said, Surely Jehovah's
anointed is before him." God had
informed Samuel that one of Jesse's
sons was to be chosen, but had not
indicated which one. Gods revela-
tion is progressive. The physical
appearance and the fact that Eliab
was the oldest son, was by human
judgment good evidence of his Sc
lection Our judgments often stop
short at the surface and are based
on form and features, dress and
manners, wealth and position. Out
ward appearances put many people
into wrong places, and are respon-
sible for many misfts and failures.
