SECREST TO INTRODUCE ONE
YEAR PERIOD TRAINING BILL

| Congressman Bob Secrest issued
the following statement Tuesday
night:
''Since the beginning of the pres
ent emergency have supported ev-
cry defense measure in the de-
termination that my country should
not meet the fate that has DESTROYED
10 nations in brief period of time.
The United States has never resort
ed to conscription in times of peace
and should not resort to military
regimentation until every other plan
has failed.
To-day boy must join the army
for three years. s I am introducing
bill tomorrow 5permitting anyone
to volunteer in the army for a one
year period of training at $50 pc.
month. If this is done l am conf
dent that conscription will not be
necessary and that an army of more
than 100000 men will be secured
much faster than military equip
ment can be produced. In six years
over 100000 boys have gone to
Civilian Conservation Corps camps
for $50 per month. Perhaps 2,0OO,-

not find places.
''My plan should be adopted by
the congress. 1t will meet the
needs of the nation in the tradition
al American way. If it does not,
conscription can then be resorted to-
Countless boys will be glad to vol
unteer for one year who are now
unwilling to give up three years of
college or employment.
Il will not vote for conscription
until every effort is made to solve
the problem by making military SER
vice more attractive and reasonable
than it is at present. Under my
plan young men lucky enough 10
have positions could retain them.
Unemployed young men would find
year Of real opportunity in the
army. The economic system of the
country would not be upset and in
the long run my plan would be
cheaper and better"

| of Christ, Seventh street, was held
last Lords day, with 80 congrega.
tions from seven states represented

guest speaker of the day.
With a large audience at the
morning service, Mr.. Tanning, min
lister of the Thayer Street Church OF
Christ, Akron, formerly of Mounds.
vile, w. Va, and Chattanooga
Tennessee, spoke 80 minutes on the
subject "A Look for Life" EN-
phasizing the necessity of looking
to Jesus for life today. Singing at
the morning service was directed by
Asa Corbett of the Lynn Street
Church of Christ, Parkersburg, w.
Va
Ten song leaders were present in
the afternoon and each in turn 'di-
rected the crowded assembly in
singing gospel songs. ''The Thief
on the Cross" was Mr. Fanning's af-
ternoon subject. That man can
not live with the Devil and die with
Lord was his conclusion He stress
ed the error of, and harm done by
the doctrine that a murderer with
his last breath may call on the Lord
and be saved, while his innocent
victim struck down in his tracks
has no chance to even call on the
Lord. His Interpretation of the
thief's position was based on the
thief's understanding that Christ's
kingdom was to be temporal, the
meaning of the word Paradise to re-
fer to the place Of departed spirits,
and the fact that the entire CONVEX
sation between Christ and the male
factor took place before Christ s
will became law.
At noon basket lunches were
spread in the armory and at the
Waterworks park. Visitors were
from Florida, Texas, California,
New Jersey. Kentucky, West Vir-

| dent of Windsor township, died Sat
urday afternoon, July 27, at $3.50
O'Clock at his home south of Stock
port, following an illness with COM
plications. Funeral services, con-
Quoted by Rev. G.. C. Nutter, were
held Tuesday morning at 1890
O'Clock, at the Oakland church, with
burial in Stockport cemetery. The
following sketch was furnished us:
Zachary Taylor White, born July
Is, 1850, was the son of John and
was lived in Windsor township. He
passed from this life on July 27,
1910, being IL days past the Goth
milestone. In 1872, he was married
to Armintha Thompson. To this un-
ion seven children were born-five
of these are deceased, namely: Car
RE a., Laura t., Edna L., Frank
D., and j. Paul. The two remain
ing children are, son Stanton, of
Paris, O., and daughter, Mrs. Lena
Matthews of GAINESVILLE
On Oct 6, 1897, Mr.. White was
again united in marriage, this
time to Martha Carpenter Matthews,
who preceded him in death a little
over year ago. Two children were
the issue of this union. They are
one son, Jewell, and one daughter,
Mrs. Lucille Hilaman Both are re-
siding on the home place at Bro
kaW.
Mr.. White spent many years Of
the earlier part of his life with the
,e 10 inc.
blacksmith, to make an honest liv-
ing by the sweat Of the brow. He
also engaged extensively in that
good, honest toll of tilling the soil
AS long as his health would permit
he kept those rich acres of his riv-
er farm at the very peak of prOduc-
ton. Three outstanding traits Of
his character as he lived these past
80 years were honesty, diligence,
and a friendliness, which led one TO
feel that he must have love for
all humans With these traits and
many more as good, he lived a godiy
life which endeared him to his fam
lily and to all with whom he came in
contact. 1t will be hard for his
neighborhood to realize that he is
gone. He was a member OF RoX-
bury grange, No. $50. y ~ A'rS
Besides the children who survive
him, he leaves IA grandchildren and
nine great grandchildren, and a
host of friends.
Earth has lost its look of glad
ness. heaven seems to us more
bright since the spirit of our dear
ones, took their happy homeward
flight; and we long to cross that
river, long to rest upon that shore,
there to see, and know, and love
them, with the Savior, evermore.
Those from distance who at
tended the funeral were Mrs. Fan
