BOND PRAISES AMERICANISM OF ROOSEVELT

Large Audience Attends Memorial Service at Murray -Theatre. Tribute to Theodore Roosevelt was raid by Judge Bond of the circuit court at a memorial service in the Murray theatre . Sunday afternoon. Frank Holland ' led the audience in singing "America." : "Towering above everything else was his love for the red. white and blue, the emblem of our country the Star Spangled Banner which Roosevelt loved above all other emblems." said Judge Bond. "Whatever may bo said of him in other respects, no one has ever questioned or doubted his loyalty as an American citizen, and to the flag, the - emblem of our country. "Under whatsoever circumstances he has been placed and wherever his wanderings have led him, he has always honored and revered the flag of his country as the only emblem to which he owed allegiance, and perhaps no words of his have made a deeper or more profound Impression upon the people of this great country and will dip farther into the future than those which come almost from his grave, wherein he said, 'We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one loyalty and that is the loyalty to the American people.' Lots Is Felt. "Sad Indeed, is the thought that at the present time we should lose the assistance and help of such a genius, whose only thought was to aid in the advancement, assistance and betterment of mankind; but sad as this thought may be, still perhaps we may bo consoled with a further thought that there never would come a time in the history of this country when wo would be willing to say that we do not need the services of such a man. "Nothing that can be said can add lustre to his name, or even assist in protecting It through the years to come, but his deeds, his acts, and what he was will live in the immortal pages of future history, and his name will be associated with those of Washington and Lincoln as the purest and noblest type of Americanism during the early part of the twentieth century. Loved His Country. It Is very difficult to determine what was his predominating characteristic, but It may safely be said that he loved his country better than himself and better than his own flesh and blood. In the recent great war his sons went forth In the thickest of the battle. They sought no easy places, but desired to be where the bullets and shrapnel were thickest. One of them was permanently injured, and the youngest one now lies buried on foreign soil, having given his life In the cause of human liberty. And in all of the public utterances of Theodore Roosevelt since the death of his son, not one word of murmur or regret has ever escaped his lips. "Where is there another such a man? He was willing, if need be, to give his four sons In the cause of human liberty, and to give them without a murmur or a word of regret, and how sad is the contemplation to think that he was never able even to visit the burial place of hl3 youngest son whose life was given while fighting for his country. Knew no Fear. "Ills own history as a soldier indicates the metal out of which his sons must have been made, for he, as colonel of the Rough Riders, in. the Spanish-American war, while charging up San Juan Hill, did not say 'Go on, boys,' but rather he was in the lead, commanding them to follow him. He knew no fear. His courage was supreme, and of that kind which never trembles but consistently presses forward for the accomplishment of the task at hand. "He was a man of great faith; one who had hope and knowledge of Immortality; a Christian gentleman of the highest class, and unatfraid to die, and as he passed Into that deep eternal sleep, we have every reason to believe that it was sweet and peareful to him. and that upon the morning he did awaken to the joys of eternal life. A True American. "If one trait greater than another could be attributed to him, it surely must be his supreme Americanism, his love of fellowman, and love and faith In the country in which and the flag under which he lived. lie believed that the principles of Americanism were destined to rule the world, and that nothing could turn backward the onward march of the principles of liberty which are the very cornerstone of our government, and thus believing he had a sacred regard for the flag of this great country, the red, white and blue. And it can honestly be said that he agreed with the poet of old concerning our flag that. Flag of the free hearts hope and home By angels' hands to valor given. Thy stars have lit the welkin dome And all their hues are born in heaven." Forever wave that standard sheet Where breathese the foe but falls before us .Where breathes the foe but falls And Freedom's banner waving o'er us." State Bill Would Change Pay Basis for Prosecutors The Wayne county circuit would be affected by a bill to change the basiS of pay salary for district attorneys in all judicial circuits of the state having a population of less than 71.000, which will be Introduced in the state's senate soon. From the present basis of $500 from the state with an rdditlonal bonus of varying amounts for every conviction secured, the salary would bo fixed at $3,500 a year, $2,000 to be paid by the state and $1,500 from the treasuries of the counties included in the

OXFORD DOCTOR HAS HIGH GRADE HORSES OXFORD, O., Feb. 10. Horse Interests at Oxford, the beautiful college city of southwestern Ohio, are by no means neglected. One of the main stays in the harness race horse industry is the well known breeder, has a number of record and green race prospects quartered at the Oxford half-mile track, in charge of trainer John C. Douglas. In the bunch is found the two roan trotting mares, Sarah Louise 2:19 by The Envoy 2:25 and Laura Lucille 2:19 (heat record), by Nutwood Wilkes 2:16. Both mares are out of Susie Hume, by Jay Bird, their dam still being owned by Mr. Smith and now safe In foal to the young speed sire. Ortolan AxWorthy 2:07. ' There Is a roan filly in the bunch a three year old, sired by The Envoy and out of Susie Hume, that has the earmarks of a real race horse. Douglass showed two geldings, both sired by Cazeux, son of Todd 2:14, and out of Susie Hume and a mare by Alstrath 2:24, that are surely trotting machines, when it comes to gait and good manners, the most essential requirements for a race horse. Both are four year olds and their trainer is jogging them on the road every fit day. Douglass says he has had - a most successful season at the races on 1918 and that he expects to be out after the coin with the early birds in the game. Dr. Smith seldom misses the Dayton meetings and he brought his racing stable there last fall in his private truck, the conveyance having been built in such a manner that it i carried comfortably two race horses and all their traps, and after unloading the van was turned into living quarters for his caretakers. Cazeux, sire of two of Dr. Smith's, high class j horses, is owned in this city, being j the property of the estate of the late Dr. E. O. Francis, one of the pioneer j horsemen of Montgomery county.

The tax bill does not meet with the approval of some representatives because of the salaries it provides, and there have been objections to giving i to the state board of tax commission ers control over local levies and assessments. . Oppose Highway BUI Opposition to the highway bill is expected to develop along the line of objection to the provision that motor vehicle license fees, , amounting to more than $1,500,000 annually, would be available for the commission's fund3 instead of being distributed among the ninety-two counties of the state as at present. The visiting committee of the legislature has made recommendations for regular appropriations totaling $3,S93.823.S4 in apportionments of $143,400 for educational institutions, $720,53S.67 for the correctional institutions, $1,964,416.84 for the different commissions, boards and offices of the state and $1,063,573.33 for the public buildings and departments, while the specific appropriations recommended total $3,200,945.9S. Included in the latter is the recommendation for $1,000,000 for the emergency and contingent funds of the governor for the purchase of land and other purposes for the benefit of the benevolent institutions. The tax levy for the educational institutions is now fixed at 7 cents on the $100 assessed valuation.

MONROE TOWNSHIP FARMERS HOLD TWENTIETH ANNUAL INSTITUTE

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN The people of Eldorado, Ohio, are proud of the record of the Monroe township Farmers Institute, which met in twentieth annual session last Friday and Saturday. . This woula have been their twenty-first annual, but for the freak antics of the clerk of the weather last winter. Three feet or snow and 20 degrees below Interfered with their plans in 1918, but fortune has dealt more kindly with us all this year of grace. . ' Eldorado folks are not only to be congratulated on the importance and venerability of their Farmers' Instiaute, but also because of the number of grand old trees which 6hade and beautify, their town. Until the intro duction of ragtime and phonographs, "Woodman, Spare That Tree" was sung in every home; and even now it Is second favorite among songs with those old ; enough to both sing and to love trees. j This comfortable, "homey" old town overflowed with visitors on Saturday, judging by the number in attendance at the Institute at both sessions. The K. of P. opera house was also packed to the entrance on Friday night, the speakers' program being supplemented by both music and song by the school orchestra and the glee club, the first being composed cf young men, the latter of high school young ladies. An Interesting Program. A farmers' institute program is designed primarily, to instruct, rather than to entertain, but a well balanced program does both. Some speakers can make the most commonplace, everyday subject interesting, and because that is true are In demand. The program at Eldorado was both instructive and entertaining, to city and country folks alike, and this being the rule, institute days are always red-letter-days in Monroe township. The Friday morning session wa3 opened with prayer, Rev. J. H. Blackford officiating. After music by the orchestra-, Mr. J. S. Brigham, of Bowling Green, Ohio, discussed "Intensive Farming." Livestock The Leading Factor in Permanent Agriculture, was the next topic presented, the speaker being Mr. A. F. High, of New Washington, another of the State lecturers in attendance. On Friday evening Mr. Brigham entertained his audience with a graphic description of his experiences in Texas. Mr. P. C. Campbell, instructor in Monroe township schools, talked interestingly on "Vocational Agriculture." Mr. Brighams talk on Saturday morning was devoted to the corn crop, ! v, o ,v, ,,r, .l the area on which grown, throughout

farmer. Mrs. Lulu H. Vanderbark, of Zanesville, O., discussed Farming as a Business Partnership by Husband and Wife, and of all In the home able to take part. The exercises opened with music by the orchestra and an invocation by Rev. A. C. Barnhart, of the U. B. Church. At the opening of the afternoon session reports of committees were read, after which Mrs. Vanderbark and Mr. Bingham entertained the audience. Orchestra and Glee Club The young folks of Eldorado, and

the township, are entitled to credit for the part- they played in making the Institute a success. The Glee club, really a sextette, is composed of the following named young ladies of the Monroe High: Katharine Penland, Esther Ware. Lois Ware, Vera Eyer, Alene Gladell, Fern Wolf and Helen Blackford; with Ruth Crane at the piano. Miss Helen Blackford is pianist for the orchestra, an ambitious organization with a lot of musicaltalent in It, as follows: Joe Col vin, Evan Kimmel, Edgar Parks, John Blackford, Eugene Sherman, Herbert Newman, Hugh Christman, Morris Hopner, Robert Swithart, Carl Leas, Levi Creager, Edgar Guenther, and E. A. Holcomb. Mr. E. V. Moore, director of music, has all these young people In training. The officers of the Monroe township Institute are: James Petry, president; Garfield Kimmel, vice president; Elmer Kimmel, secretary, and H. E. Banfil, treasurer. F. G. Howell, H. C. Heath, E. P. Kyle, Clarence Minnich, Frank Schlosser and Clem McKee form the executive committee. Good Things to Eat. One of the K. P. halls on the upper floor of the opera house was turned into a dining room on Friday and Saturday, and the ladies of the U. B. church most graciously presided and provided. Think of a real chicken dinner, with a vast assortment of other good things, and delicious coffee, all for 35 cents. One of the regrets of our eventful life will be the fact that we Just couldn't stay to sample that dinner on Saturday, or that we didn't start away with a piece or two of pie in each hand, as the ladies suggested.
