CENATOR HUEY LONG called to-
~ gether his complaisant legislature
in Baton Rouge and ordered it to
pass some new laws that would give
him complete control of city finances,
elections and expenditures of federal
relief funds. Secretary Ickes went
right up in the air and announced that
If the laws were enacted Louisiana
would get none of the public works
money; whereupon the Kingfish told
him he could go to the neither regions,
since the PWA money had already
been deposited to the account of the
New Orleans sewer and water board
"The state court very properly rec
ognizes our men as that board now, so
how is Ickes going to get his money
back?" Long asked. when he starts
that, We'll show him what a smart
man he amt. If Ickes and the bal
ance of the brain trust cabinet hold
their breaths until we send for them,
there'll be several corpses and the
country will be better off,"

15:11-24, for Sunday, May 5:
The main purpose and point IN
the parable of the prodigal son is
that fatherhood antedated and out
lasted his unfaithful sons rebellion,
and he was still the father Of the
prodigal in his deepest degradation.
In this fact we see the fatherhood
of God today.
V. II. "And he said, y certain
man had two sons" Into this happy
home crept an evil spirit.
VIZ. And the younger of them
said to his father, Father, give me
the portion of goods that falleth TO
me. And he divided unto him his
living" Home seemed dull, mar
row and unattractive, and the world
looked rosy and sweet, and the
younger son wanted his liberty, TO
have a better time elsewhere. He
was not a bad boy, but the direc-
ton he would give his life was to-
ward evil His father let him have
his way God gives us the free use
OF our wills.
V 13. "And not many days after
the younger son gathered all togeth-
er, and took his journey into far
country, and there wasted his sub
stance in riotous living" Thought
soon leaped into action, doubt start
ed toward damnation Throwing OF
home restraints and forgetting
God, one may go far from home and
God without travelling many miles.
Exercising his personal liberty, he
soon wasted his property, money
and time in round of revelry.
Such living deadens conscience, be-
smirches character and destroys the
soul bit by bit.
V. IA. and when he had spent
all, there arose a famine in that
land; and he began to be in want"
Vice spends all that man has if 1t
has a chance. Then comes famine
and want.

himself to a citizen of that country;

Penn Township Taxpayer
Asks For Information

Editor Morgan County Democrat:
Several weeks ago there was pub
lished in your paper the financial
report of Morgan county, and while
it was in an abridged form, and did
not enter into detail, such as we
taxpayers would like, yet it gave us
fairly good idea of the expense of
running the various offices of the
county. Reading it carefully we
were disappointed because it did not
state how much was spent for re-
lief, and what the cost of maintain
ing the relief office has been; sal
ary of director and of the other en-
ployes, etc. We, along with many
other taxpayers Of the county,
would like TO have this information,
and believe that We are justly en-
titled to it. We do not want to ap
pear as being hard to please in the

Story OF Passion Play Told
by Rev. I'll. III. Sect

The Passion Play at Oberammer-
gau was the topic of the sermon Of
Rev II. Fl. Scott at the Methodist
church, Sunday night The speaker
described the production of this
play as being free from anything
offensive to the Christian spirit, or
the most refined and artistic sense.
there being in it northing coarse Or
vulgar, grotesque or crude, or even
legendary or traditional, with the
single exception Of the representa-
ton of the legend of Saint Veroni-
ca. He described the beautiful
scenery Of the Tyrolian Alps, the
steep descents, narrow defles, misty
topped mountains, winding roads,
artistic bridges and swift, cold, icy
streams. He spoke of Kofel, the
mountain that overhangs the little
village, surmounted by it's lofty
cross 1000 feet above; the cour-
teous kindly peasantry, and the
quaint garb and costumes Of the
people. He spoke If the kindly
village priest in whose home he was
entertained.
\ description was given of the
passion pi9y ard its effect on the
lives and charact of the people
Here Christian character Of the
purest and noblest kind is produced
in tho little town nesting at the
foot Of the mountains. He spoke Of
the hundreds of childrl who grow
M in the town in clos st sympathy
and intimacy with the story Of Je
sus. and Of the millions who have
attended the presentation Of the
drama, and whose lives have been
affected and ennobled by it. Rev
Scott said that if the church every
where would seek to live as close to
God and nature, as these quaint
Bavarian people, the effect upon the
world would be tremendous for
good Keeping the cross ever in
the midst makes these people un
selfish, salfsacrificing and truly fine
and noble in heart These unspoil-
ed children Of nature, shut away
from the world, living the simple
life under the open sky, have de-
yeloped the most beautiful commun-
ity spirit, and have enthroned
Christ in their lives. This too of
people whose ancestors sacrificed
their children to Thor and Wooden.

How may wandering children be
