County Taxpayers To Be
Hit Hard By Government
Foreign Aid Program

100000, the combined total being
approximately $244 100000. For
two years the approximate amount
would be $488, 100000, or almost
identical with the States share of
the proposed one-year's foreign
aid.
The States share of the pro-
posed gifts to foreign countries
also represents almost $100,0O0,-
600 more than the cost of all ex-
penditures, including construction,
by the State for one year. The
Ohio General Assembly has just
made record appropriation OF
$781, 100000 to operate the State
government during the two-year
1888 biennium.
In other terms, Weaver ex-
planned, if Ohio's share of the
foreign aid program had to be
raised by l~vies on property, 1t
would require tax of $34.91 per
$1,000 of taxable value. Or, if it
were raised by sales tax similar
to Ohio's three per cent sales tax
law, the rate required to raise
$487, ,050,000 would be 10.5 per
cent.
Weaver pointed out that this
and ali other spending programs
must be financed by taxes col
lected from the people of the 48
states, the soaring income tax be-
ing a principal source.

Fishermen
Sight Body


The body of Mary Ellen
SpragCe, IA, was cast up by Lake
Erie waters near the East Har-
Dor shore at 4:30 p. m. Wednes-
day.
The Rawson girl was drowned
in deep water off Emerick's point
last Sunday morning while play
ing with a companion, Nancy
Beppler, II, who was saved from
near drowning by fishermen.
Wednesday afternoon a Colum-
bus fishing party in a power boat
sighted patch of red mile out
i'll the lake. The object turned
out to be the girls body, clothed
in red swim suit and white
rubber cap.
Deputy Sheriff Mike Hetrick,
who had been watching the lake
for several days with Sheriff
Merlan Budd, summoned the Nei-
decker funeral home, which held
the body for Rawson funeral
home. 1t was taken to Rawson
Wednesday night.
The body was in the water
for four days but remained in
fair condition, Hetrick said. He
expressed belief that the storms
early in the week and swift un-
dertows had carried the body far
into the lake northwest from Ca
tawba point. Wednesdays in
shore wind was believed to have
fioated the child's remains shore
ward, where they were finally
located.
The condition of the dead
girls companion, Nancy, also Of
Rawson, O., was reported good
after treatment at Magruder Hos
pital. She was returned to her
home Sunday night by her ia
ther, Ellis Bepper, who had come
to the Point Sunday morning to
return both girls to their homes.
Floyd Pendelton, who was fish
ing alone in boat, saw Nancy's
body in the water near his craft
and pulled her to safety. Other
. witnesses to her near drowning
were Ralph and Richard Robson,
who were also fishing near the
scene.
The girls had come to Emer-
ich's point, on the island to spend
the day.
The drowned girl was the
daughter of Mrs. Sarah Sprague,
of Rawson.
Details of how the tragedy oc-
cured have not been clearly es-
tablished, but it is believed that
the Sprague girl, who was report
edly a good swimmer, was caught
in deep water while playLg with
ball with her companion, and
was unable to negotiate the heavy
breakers encountered at the
northeast side of the point.
Conducting the search for the
missing girl Sunday we're mem
bers of the Coast Guard. Deputy
Sheriff William Cullen and Fire
Chief Walter Miller and six Port
Clinton volunteer fremen.

T'boagbfs on Life
'sThe Thing
BY DR. JOHN w. HOLLAND


had in his mind, if anything, when
he wrote it. Nobody knows.
1t raises a. question, What is 1.-THE
Thing" in life? Henry Drummond
wrote a book with Latin name,
"Summum Bonum" - the Highest
Good, or the Greatest Thing in the
World. Of course, it had to be love
love of God and man. He went on
to show how, without love, life
grows lean and meaningless, and
how, with loves inspiration, most of
hfe's puzzles can be made plain and
beautiful.
Love is 1.-THE Thing" Do you know
that mighty little is ever settled by
force? A father tried to compel his
sons obedience by force. He
'swhaled" the lad within am inch of
his life one day, and the boy sullenly
obeyed. The father thought that he
had succeeded. But few nights
later, the lad slid down the porch
post, and was gone, his soul Scared
by injustice.
He beat his way west, got job,
made man of himself, and finally
married a good Christian girl who
helped him to forget his father. Years
later, he sent his aging father rail-
road ticket with invitation to visit
him. When the father saw the fine
success his son had made, he broke
down and asked his boys forgive
ness, confessing that hate and not
love had spoiled his sense of father
hood.
He had missed 1.-THE Thing-Love."
Once rather fine appearing young
man came to Jesus and asked: Good
Master. what shall / do to inherit
eternal life?" Jesus answer, at first
sight, seems a trifle harsh. "One
thing thou lackest. Go thy way, sell
whatsoever thou hast, and give to the
poor-and come, take up the cross
and follow me-" Mark 10:17-21.
The record is this, ''He went away
grieved, for he had great posses
sions." He missed ''The Thing

Faith
In these critical days for us, Faith
is ''The Thing" A sense of futility
born of fear haunts everybody. A
slight knowledge of history, particu
larly in the Old Testament, will helI
us to find faith in God. There have
been many dark days when it seemed
on the surface, as if Good were
weaker than evil
It merely looked that way. Coo
