A sheriffs duty in the first few years at the turn of the century, from 1903 to 1906, when Mr. Butler served in the office, largely dealt with;court and other matters beyond traffic and accidents on. the highway; which, thisj generation encounters with the automobile. Mr. Butler was a good sheriff. Following his service as a public official he moved to AUen county apd resided near New Haven.

Dangerous Spitlers lit Many Regions Os Country

ACCORDING to a recent rdpert, the btack-widow spider iis •\ thought, .to be moving into tjhe colder cities by invading buildings and living in them through the jwinter. One black-widow was discovered recently on the Atte?nth floor of an office building Ttefs should make us more captious if we have thought that dangerous spiders' live Only in the warm climates. Many black-widok-bites r have been repotted from aduthern states and rural areas, ♦specially in connection with out- ’ <Jqor* privies, where the spider lives. However, numerous spider bites - have been ~ reported from; every state, and spiders appear to have caused , ills- that > were thought due to other causes. 'H Os couse. most spiders are—not. ' dangerous at all, but we should he able to recognize those that are. The most dangerous in this country is the Au occasional adult has died trom its Jrenom, a*d many have bccoi-ue oeriously ill. . The venom is even more per - ous to youulg thildren that} adults. H la said to be at least

- j The t city admintetratiou of £ t Marietta, Ohio, is acquiring notoIJ rtety. The new may dr soon after his election issued an order that municipal news “other than an item that may be of pufejic record” ‘\i must be cleared through the head of the safety-service department. V| The Marietta Times, aaturally, is up in arms. It sayb of this or- - 4 e * : * “Its enforcement means that various city employee* in respon- ■ sible positions, who really need the cooperation of the cttfo**s to ,4 , make their efforts moat effective, . > will be eut off from direct eenf tact with the ppblic and City Council. Any information or ideas they may have for the public or , the Council will have to be clear* ed through censorship of the safety-eervice director.’’ Persons having experience with this official in the past, says the Times, have found that this means delay beyond reason. Censorship of this kind usually means snore '( than mere delay. Also It gives V .power to little me* to say what citizens may know. It’s bad busiV ness for the people. House Destroyers;— ! A young man sleeping in a ' tag cabin in tha Canadian woods last summer ‘ heard what he thought was \ a -mo**e rattling around In the log wait Re made -a perfunctory search tWo or three nights in succession and could find no place where a mouse could be. He then made an outside daylight study of the old Mga near his bed. He found that termites had cut thejr tunnels through a log and so weakened, ft that mice were indeec making a runway inside the'log. The structure, which its owners had hoped would last at least, another gene- . ration, is doomed and a very few years wilF see its end. . ' A family ia Minneapolis bought a house built in the ninettea, apparently sound as th* Constitution. When it came tiijie to paint it, termites were found at work on a back porch. It and part of the wall had to be rebuilt. Texas ranks first in the country in teemite devastation and Ohio best, but no one knows where the next , ' batch of termite tubes will be . .found. < Spot treatments with chemicals help a little for a time. Permanent control requires impregnation of wood barriers when the structure is being built. The devastation wrought by these litti* creatures is almost beyond belief. The builder of a new home should look to this matter in time. The buyer should also watch out. Men of experience in extermination can - spot the small villains by their work. a ’ ’

percent stronger; than the venom of a rattle-snake. I u ■ Tbe dangerous black-widow is tig female, a rather large spider that- can recognitied by its round, black abdottten, which looks like a shiny bead. Its back is bright red. It spins an irregular web of coarse threads. This spider’s bite is a single 1 puncture, which can bo found if you look carefully. The first sting Is quickly followed by a burning which may turn to a diuß ache. This spreads rapidly and becomes worse as the venom is earried through the, body. The victim soon develops seVere musele cramps, usually ©f the' abdofrien, which may become as rigid as a board. His blood pressure usually drops and his pulse 1 ipeedS up. He becomes restless and weak, and perhaps hysterical. One method of relieving thee* i symptoms has bee* to inject \ ekun Into a vein. Sometimes this 1 can also be used to hblp in making a diagnosis of a bteck-wtaew bite. An anti-venom, developed to i light the venom, has also been I used with success. v (

repeatedly committed. or attempted to commit, whet is cow knows as “genocide.” or the tot 3’. deliberate slaughter of an entire nation. So it is better. around, to take the story of tbs conquest of Canaan not

in its bare historical form but to follow the exampl© of earlier generations of Christians and take it as a kind of parable, a parable of th* victorious Mfe. Victory Has Many Wound* BY the victorious life Is meant the life that rises above its temptations, living for God against *D opposition, 1 ie strong Mfe, not overthrown by selfishness and sin but overcoming evil with good. First es an, as a tamovn wmf cerrespeadent said, “Victory has many wounds.’* Joshua and his arinles won; but they had casualties. No victory te over wen widkoof a fight; er te put It anathee way, no victory without * fight is werih much. Tot we forget thie in ear pisu—l agalust shs. are tempted te think, I could be a better person If 1 did not have ' so many temptations, f eeuld be a better person in more synspa tiietio surroundings. I couM be a better Christian if I had had better ugbringteg. If . . . If . . • Maybe you are right, more likely you are wrong. Is an oak a better tree if it is raised in a hot-house* Is a race-horse faster if he neve* •has a hard race* We pray so» strength and God sends us difficulties. That is God’s way as answering our prayer. / * • • Life-£x»ng Campaign »N another way Joshua’s wars are * a type of the war of our best against'oar worst. He never did quite conquer Palestine. In Judges I foe repeated phrase strikes the eye, ‘—did net drive out . . In the very center of Palestine, fdr example, what wo now know as th* city of Jerusalem remained a hostile strong-point for centuries after Joshua. The whole story of the Israelites after Joshua shows bow imperfect the conquest was at first, and archaeology has undevseored the reeved of the Bible. Tet it is trm to say that there was a real conquest of Canaan. The country was won, though there was a vast deaf of mopping-up to bq done. This is again a parable. The victorious life is not the earn* ns th* sinless life. ' 4 The majority of Christians believe there w*s one sinless life, but only one. We have a right to call; a man 1 good (a* the Bible does) without meaning that he is perfect. Some people are needlessly discouraged at this point. If we expect the victorious life to be so completely victorious that not a single tinge of evd remains th it anywhere, we shall n<rt only be expecting ourselves to be better than the saints, but we shall be living in disillusionment . * • D-Day and V-Day THERE is another, brighter side to this. It is true, no present conquest of evil is complete; but final and compute victory is assured. For the “Captai* ©f otir Salvation” is 1 Christ, and we Christians believe he has actually conquered svil, one© and for all ;■ As Dr. Cufima* pat* it, . D-Day and V-Day M* sot tbe same. The bafife ©f tk* beachheads came la*g befog* the surreader. Christ ha* got «b* powers ©f darkness to fttght. The Cross a*d th© Besurreettoa are j tbe Christians D-Day. There wkl be much tight!many casualti©s, perikaps many backsets, befor* V-Day, but It will come. .. -y The only assurance Joshua had that his cause would finally win was his confidence in God. So the real guarantee, and the only guarantee, which a Christian has of ultimat* and total victory is that he fights in th* name and in the strength of Jesus. A* Martin Luther’s hymn has 1 «• • uv our oui» fArtuftb confide, Our jtricing would be lottug," ‘•Qbristu* Victor.” Christ the Conqueror, is an aticient name far our lor A But his victories arena! old finished stories; they still go u«. <C*»yri*ht Itel ky «h« DlrteUs «e Ckrlßtiaa Edaeation, Natlanal Canae* £•& C «Xite th wg WaWaa.V** wwawfoMtefo’ “<* s’ * ©tbFBB * »
