Lenten Meditation (Rev. W. C. Feller, Zion Evangelical and Reformed) “LOVE IN SOCIAL RELATIONS” ‘•Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them; for this is the law and the Prophets.” Matt. 7:12. This is the Golden Rule from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. Many will say that it is impossible in a world of reality: it is too idealistic. Many will scorn it, because it comes in conflict with their business practices and social activities. The world has not yet grasped the importance of the Golden Rule as the law of life. What radciai and revolutionary changes would take place in the social, business and religious attitudes of men. if this principle were adopted as the governing authority of life. A new and better day would smile upon all the rel atlonships of life, if every person would treat his neighbor as he would like to have his neighbor treat him. Here is a reasonable and positive rule for life, based on love. “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." To the extent that it has been applied in the lives of men. its practical value has been demonstrated. Were it applied to all of life, it would bring peace in the industrial affairs of the country. Social disorders would cease. Harmony would come in the moral relationships of men. Tionesty and good feeling into national politics; and brothelly love into a divided Christendom. Human welfare will be advanced in proportion as this beneficent rule is applied, obeyed and lived.

Don't pass up your Victory garden this year. It is more important than over, for according to all indicatious foods will be scarce and those who have their vegetables in the back yard will have much ‘ the best of it. O—o I There should not be a shortage of repair parts for plows this spring hut farmers predict there will be. If the farmer does not have any help and cannot keep his machinery in good condition, there will be a serious falling off in production that may be felt several years after the war is over. O—O it is expected that many of the. bills being enacted by the legislature this year will be found defective. Reason given is the shortage of training personnel. It would seem that the author of a bill would be sufficiently interested to see that it is corrected by the ■ time it comes up for final passage. 1 Two years ago a score or more of the measures had to be discarded because of errors and this one promises a repetition.

It’s time to get thoee tin cans and your scrap paper ready for the monthly pick-up. The Boy Seouls under direction of Phil Sauers, the city chairman for the salvage committee, will be on hands Saturday morning and its important we make this the best drive yet. The items are badly needed. Please flatten out the cans and place them in a receptacle so they can be handled and tie the newspapers and magazines in bunches. O_o

The Red Cross campaign in Adams county is ou. The goal is $16,700. More than 600 solicitors are now canvassing the territory and you will have the opportunity to help this great cause. Those who know report that ithe organization is doing a marvelous work to help those who are lighting our cause. Please be liberal that we may again meet the quota. It is desired to complete the canvas in two weeks, so don't wait. Be ready when you are called upon. y_o ! A Little Too Thrifty: I Somewhere iu the wilderness ot bills before the state legislature this week is a measure to create a Department of Commerce and Industry for Indiana. This bill was specifically requested by Gov. Ralph F. Gates in order that Indiana would riot be left at the post when the postwar race begins ■ among states to attract small iu- ■ dustrios and tourists The bill was intended to carry an appropriation of SIOO,OOO to im- , plement the task of making the i nation Indiana-conscious. This sum . was quickly trimmed to $50,0*0 and then to $20,000 for a two-year period—or SIO,OOO per year. Contrast this with the fact that Michigan spends in the vicifiity of ,s4oo',- ' .» . i ,c • < V 000 annually for state' promotion, and many other states rarely spend less than. $50,009 yearly to eel! their state to the nation. If these appropriations seem exorbitant, consider that our sister states have been doing it for year# ami with telling

results. It is simple advertising and the kind that pays off. It is unfortunate that the appropriation has been slashed to $lO,000 yearly. It is an example of shortsightedness that can be injurious for years to come. The full appropriation should be restored if Indiana is not found lagging when individual enterprise once more becomes the order of the day. — Fort Wayne JournalGazette.
