WHAT THE FARMER WANTS: — The statement of a local merchant that 30 per cent, of the products of the farm sold'to Elkhart consumers come from a distance is deserving of attention. The farmer today needs more of a market. That market .should be a local one as far as pos sible. Transportation charges and the cost of packing and handling is prohibit ins of long hauls. If his product could be sold ala point near to the source of production at a fair profit it would be to his advantage It would reduce his marketing cost save his time, and bring a reduction in cost to the consumer. The farmer works as an individual and markets as van individual. Hi buys on a market that is organized that has capital and business sys tern behind it. lie sells as he hjuthe chame. What lie is seeking imore assurance that when he har vests the crops that represent a year's labor they will not remain on tiis bands, or be sold at a loss. Ths element of uncertainty r largely responsible for the origii and development of co-operatvi keting. As a method it has hail fair success. Its defect is that it re quires an organization equally ex pensive to maintain as the commoi one of deailiug through a middli man. The city can not exist without country. They are not independent.
but Interdependent and should I" more closely linked together. Th< I mits <>f a city from the standpoint of its business interests should be it; jure ibb pi trading area. Th< farmer needs the city as a market the city, the farmer as the sourer of its supplies. His product shouh he adjusted i far as possible lo ii ih-m.imi. Its merchants should girt . prior con’deratiOU to the prodtp t ral ei| within its own area. No city regardless of how close it lies, is o' value lo the farmer unless it offers him satisfactory selling or shipping opportunities. I 1 ’or this purpose the city ami colmlry treed to unite. It can no' b‘ done by one party alone; il re quur-s I eam play. The city needr the organization of business group

A . good citizens we ’must obey as nearly a wo can and officials must do their duty. Morton Hawkins, the Portland banker, indicted at Indianapolis, after iho failure of his mortgage loan company, who tied and was captured in Dayton several months ago, must return to face the charges against him. His big fight to dodge a court of justce has availed him nothing except the postponement of a disagreeable job.

Beautiful Women Lack Other Good Qualities Indianapolis. Ind.. May 12—(United Press)— When fate deals out beaut; | •o a woman, other qualities are withheld. At least that is the opinion of Indi-1 anapolis beauty parlor artists. Ami; they ought to know, because they are often lhecrcators ami nowadays always the embellishers of beauty. I Eemrson's law of compensation I rules, those who adorn modern women say. “The homelier a woman is the more she applies her mind to the higher things in life", a masseur said. "Most ■ beautiful women I treat are dumb. In another parlor an attendant said pretty women are not as courteous or as educated as plainer members of the sex. "These beautiful dolls spend all their time getting and staying lieauti-' fill," she asserted. "Gee, it takes a lot of lime for some of them too. These dames spend hours at their dressing tallies and then come down here to finish the job. They have no chance to do anything else." “Vanity in many women come from consciousness of beauty proprietress of a large parlor philosophized. Wc men are safer and happier when they Sre of a medium degree of pulchritude not too pretty and not too holm I she adds. “Eor men overlook lack of brains in an attractive girl, but the plain woman with'brains seldom receives the atenttioli she deserved" an attendant said. After all. she added, beauty is brains or a' least should be considered so, and the obi adage, "pretty i . as pretty does", still is unshaken in its application. — o Rum Runners Forced Northward By Dry Navy Glace Bay. N. S., May 12.—(United Press.)

Saul'4 Violent Hatred of the Lord's Disclplee (vv. 1-2). Saul knew full well that unless the : movement set on foot by Jesus was stopped. It would supersede Judaism. I He was Ignorant of the genius of ' Christianity. He did not know that | the "blood of martyrs la the seed of i the church.” The noble display of ; faith by Stephen in sealing his testimony with bis blood did not soften Saul’s spirit, but rather Intensified ills hatred for Jesus and His disciples. It j mnde him more determined than ever i to stamp out the Nazarene heresy. The Intensity of his madness, and the ei- , tent of Its operations are best set forth in his own words, "And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and ! women" (Acts 22:4). “I both shut up i mhny of the saints In prisons having received authority from the chief priests, and when they were put tn desth, I gave my voice against them, | and punishing them oft In all synagogues I strode to make them blaspheme. and being exceedingly mad against them. I persecuted them even unto foreign cities" (Acts 26:10-12 R. V,). | 11. Saul Kicking Against the Pricks (vv. 3-P). The figure here Is that of the Fast- 1 ern ox driver following the ox with a sharp iron fixed tn tlie end of a pole, i The animal Is prodded on with this Instrument and if it Is refractory It kicks against the sharp iron and Injures Itself. This Is a picture ofsatil as he was madly fighting against Jesus. 1. A Light From Heaven (vv. 3 4a). i The time had come for the Lord,to Interfere. Saul was stricken with blindness and fell to the earth. This physical demonstration accentuated the workings of bls conscience which doubtless were going on qdlckened by the Hi.ty Spirit as He used Stephen's testimony. 2. A Voice From Heaven (vv. 4h 5). This was the Lord’s voice calling Saul by name anil asking, "Why persecutes! thou Me?" This moved Saul to Inquire, "Who art thou, Lord?" The answer came, "I am Jesus, whom thou peffiecutest." He is so closely Identified with believers that He feels their sufferings and regards treatment of them as treatment of Himself. 3. Saul's Inquiry (v. 6), “What Wilt Thou Have Me to Do?" The Lord told hint to go into the city where Informatjpn would be given him as to what he must do. \ Saul Entering Damascus (vv. 79). The haughty persecutor went quite humbly Into Damascus, led by his attendants. For the space of three days he remained blind and fasted. What went on In his soul in those days no mortal can know, but we may be assured that he, like the Lord in the wilderness, nas too deep in meditation and prayer to desire food. | 111. Ananias Ministers to Saul (vv. 10-19). 1. Ananias’ Vision (vv. 10-12). Tn this vision the Lord appeared and Instructed him to go to Saul. He gave him the name of the street and Saul's hosi, and informed him that Saul was now a praying man, and that He had prepared Saul by a vision for the coming of Ananias. x 2. Ananias’ Fear and Hesitancy (vv. 13M6). He knew of Saul's ministry and the authority by which he came. The Lord encouraged him to go, assuring him that Saul is no longer an eneiny'but a chos°n vessel to bear His name before the Gentiles, kings, and the children of Israel. 3. Ananias’ Obedience (v. 17). His fears being removed, Ananias went to the house where Saul was staying, put his hand on him and affectionately addressed him as "brother.” Ananias told Saul that the Lord had sent him with a twofold mission: (1) "That thou mightest receive thy sight" (2) "Be filled with the Holy Spirit" 4. Saul Baptized (vv. 18-19). After Saul received his sight Ananias baptized him. The Lord bestows the gift of the Spirit upon whomsoever He will, and may designate anyone whether occupying an official position or not, to lay hands upon Individuals.
