He put in his appearance early after digging away six incheg of cnow from his burrow and remaincd out until 11:45 o’clock when the sun came out and enabled him to see his shadow, Frightened he quickly scampered back to sleep six more weeks. However he predicted an early gpring for all states east of the Mississippi river. On February 2, Mr. Ground Hog is scheduled to emerge from his hibernating quarters after a long winte:’s sleep and gaze around to see jubt how conditions are on earth. Friday morning he was obliged to dig himnself out of several inches of sncw which fell early. The story goes that if he sees his gshadow he will scamper back into his den to sleep for six weeks more, the allotted period of ccld | weather. . The snowfall Friday was one of {le heaviest of teh season. ‘Snow start:d 1 falling about 3 a. m. and for a time the flakes fell thick and fast.

Among the citations which comprsied the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “God is Love; and he that dwelleth in Love dwelleth in God, and God in him” (I. John 4:16). “He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasjon of stumhbling in him. But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes” (I John 2:10,11). “Let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but jn deed and in truth” (I. John 3:18). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Chris'tian Science textbook, “Science and _Health with Key to the Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy: “The vital part, the heart ang soul of Christian Science, is Love” (p. 113). “That God is a corporeal being, nobody can truly affirm” (p. 140 ‘“He that touches the hem of Christ’s robe and masters his mortal btliefs, animality, and hate, rejoices in the proof of healing—in asweet and certain sense than God is Liove” (p. 569). “No power can withstand divine Love” (p. 224). -

GOV. TAKES SHOT AT CRITICS.

Indianapolis Judge and ‘Lake County ProSecutor Targets of Paul Y. MecNutt.

Although he did not mention them by name, Governor Poul V., McNutt is being credited with having eriti- | cised two of: his critics, Criminal: Judge Frank P. Baber of Marion county ang Prosecutor Robert G. Estill of ILake county. ; Although democrats, both men have been outspoken against the MeNutt administration at various times. ; Judge Baker’'s remarks have made headlines frequently and last week Estell charged that Captain Matt fLeach of the state police as handling the Dillinger capture with an eye for the state administration publicity. Estill himself appeared in widely published photographs with his arm around John Dillinger. Both were smiling. : " In a talk on improved law enforcement, Governor McNutt cited the need of electing competent lawyers to the criminal bench. Unfortunately we have in some courts in Indiana, men whose showmanship destroys the dignity and usefulness of the bench, Governor McNutt declared. “They are, however, a small minority.” This was said to have betn aimed at Judge Baker. The governor was moie specific in his criticism of the Lake county prosecutor. He cited Warden iG. Liawes, comment on the possible effect of the Dillinger-Estill pictures, which also appear in news reels. Such friendly poses of prosecutor and criminal are in extreme bagd tasie and add nothing to the concaried effort to stamp out gangs and aid n law enforcement,” Governor MecNutt declared. : He paid high tribute to tha conduct of Captain Leach in handling the Dillinger case.
