Wh'n an official in intentionally dishonr-st or naturally incompetent if i expected that the prosecutor should take steps to rern'ivf such a p'THon and rtfre the confidence of the puMic in constituted authority. "Just now th prosecutor is enC3crfd in some injunction suits. He is to b- congratulated upon his en-r-rtry. Tt is onlv fair to withhold liral judgment until thf.se suits are j Imposed f)f. We know that the j'.ultfe who hears the cause is of integrity and ability. And it is our duty to attend thoo trials and show th" world that as Christians we are re.tdy to stand by any attempt to Improve the conditions of our city. "The courts are responsible, "" a Judge passes on a ease he assumes a great responsibility. If a man violates a law knowingly and then receives a IStrht punishment, he is simply amused. In there any doubt in his mind when he is convicted twice, in the same court and for the same kind of offense? The papers carried the story of a man who was brought into our city court for speeding. He pleaded guilty. It was the second time he had been brought into the t;ame court for th same k?nd of offense. It was the second time he had pleaded gxiilty. What was the punishment given for this second offense? One dollar and costs with the fine supended. Any speeder would consider the price cheap for the privilege of turning our streets into a speedway. Recklessness increased until one night a lady was crossing Washington st.. a rushing automobile struck her and death was the result. DNnisM's Ilarrctt PcMn. "Another magistrate sat as a special Judge in the superior court. He was trying the Ilarrett case. It was nscovereu mar tne containers neia water instead of whiskey. Three poj licemen swore that it was whiskey : that they had secured in the raid 'and that the containers held someI thing that was not secured by them. Was not their testimony enough for i the ease to proceed? If a man steals I $5.000 in bills and the bills are held n" tno hief of police for the day or trie trial, and u tnree men see I the thief steal the money and these ! men identify it as legal money. And if while the chief has the money in his custody another thief steals the bills from the chief and leaves In
their place pieces of paper. And j city's faults. It is not in the sons" when the pieces were brought into0f a knocker, but of constructive
conn, oecau'-a iney were nor i ne ; stolen money, the court would disregard the testimony of tho three men who saw the money stolen and identified It and dismiss the case. Would you h satisfied if the money had been stolen from you? "Thus the special judge sitting in the Rarrett ca ordered the acquittal of the defendant when it was discovered that tho containers 1 id not contain the lipior taken in the raid. I asked one lawyer about such procedure and he said: It !s clearly stipulated that the jury shall be the judges of the law and evidence and the jury should have been allowed to consider the testimony of the ! three, men.' Another lawyer said: would not have dismissed the e.'io. but I would have issued bench warrants and would have gone to the bottom of it.' Of all the 'awyers I have approached on the subject not one has taken the view of that ... : . i : . . I n pi'" '-u J"1' - "Here are some of the questions! that confront us.

As his wife hurried -out it hecran to rain Crawllnsr from under tho hay. with patience frone, he said to his wife: 'Maria, thee had hetter return to the hiise. I am frettinc: ready to epa ss myself." And with overtri. d patience some people are pet-tin-ready to express themselves, l'.ut the question is the manner of expression. Takes I tan at Paters. "We depend upon our newspapers. We need them to crystallize puhlie sentiment. Hoth of them have condemned otheial neplipenoe. And this the time to arise above partisan politics. l?ut in their policy whether ntentionally or unintentionally, the jupers hae loon partial to part of the 1 r-ry of our city. When the mii.aiini if Kinril i'iin .1 i t i n n s has ' - arisen the reporters have hurried to interview members of the Ministerial association to tind out if anyth:up was planned for a correction of pu nored die evils. P.ut they have Ipthos pastors outside of the association. 'no paper called the roll of the association, told them to stand up and laid oa them the blame lor conditions, hut did not ascribe uuy responsibility t tho. the association. What 1 se outside of tw ur mandate has made that association or particular organization tho sole monitor of public morals? "Are the pastors of the Lutheran. Cat hoik. Episcopalian and Jewish cln;r h s without any moral Instincts or without a desire to Detter conditions tla se nie n No. I know some of j ind churches and I know: that tra y would favor a movement our iity. It is not fair to to better the Ministerial association or the otb.er pasti'-rs cf th city to expect ?iat association to be the solo in rumfnt to achieve a moral reform. And I invite th-' newspapers to direct their erTorts in securinp the cooperation of all courageous p stors .it:.! ehurches for the purpose of bett.riuc i-onditiops. a t e.tch church and pastor t-tand on an individual
Civic
record toward such a plan. Then th- puldic can draw Its own conclusions as to the responsibility of exi.tinr conditions . "The Ministerial association will not correct public evil. It never has. It is easy to appoint a committee, disagree with that committee or depend on that committee to shoulder the whole duty and the rest forcct It. Nothing will result. During the last effort to better conditions here all th churches represented in the association were perfunctorily committed to the movement. Hut when the test came there were two churches that stood out unfijnchinp and depf udaMe .And they pave themselves, not to the plans of the association, but to the civic welfare and upon their own Individual responsibility. And any mocment that succeeds will be a campaign that Is not dependent ui)on the Ministerial association but instead Is dependent upon the indlvidual responsibility and reputation for fearlessness of every church and pastor choosing to help make South Hend a city of good repute. "Public opinion can be aroused. When aroused it Is powerful. It is the duty of every right-minded person to translate lofty Ideals into deeds. V. e talk about social service. It is commanded by Christ. Hut the highest kind of social service Is that which promotes morality, punishes wrong and makes the community a decent place to live in. Let us be gin now so that we can say to the vtrinirers coming to South Hend .1lnr. fs, hrp where rieht Is POPular. homes are secure, children can be raised amid good surroundings and law Is enforced.' "In Inviting these people to come here would you expect them to come If you told them different? Of course you "will say these things. Rut having said these things you must make good." EXALT VIRTUES, ELIMINATE VICE Our virtues must not blind us to; the existence of our vices." stated Rev j N. Greene in his sermon on virtue and Vices of South ! Bend." at the Civic Sunday services at the First Methodist episcopal church Sunday morning. He said, "We have vices of which we are not proud. Cities are like men in that they have little chance to improve unless they recognize their weaknesses. There Is a legitimate sense in which we may speak of a icism. In speaking of the Civic Sunday's services ho said: "In issuing his proclamation setting this day apart as 'Civic Sunday," our mayor has appealed to the churches of the city to assist in creating a better civic spirit. The appeal is a merited recognition on the part the churches play in movements looking to the betterment of the community. In such a movement as is now on, the churches will do their part in helping to make a larger and better South Rend. "In view of the great opportunity facing South lend we are asked, to take invoice of our civic stock and become boosters of the.city as never before. This is, therefore, the time to ak what virtues we have that may be exalted and also what vices, mo bnve that oueht to ne enmin ated. If we are to ie reai uoo-m we must have something worth a 1 Ä .t1n C2 VP TV ooosiwn;. - likely to become uampeneu uj ui, existence of defects so glaring as to bo embarrassing. Many Virtues.

We have a hlph prade class of people, and these are the decldinp factors In any city's merits. There Is here a spirit of 'hospitality, of peneroslty and of culture. "South Pend has her defects. Some of the roads- leading Into the city are fearfully and wonderfully made. Our railway stations belonp to another ape and are a standlnp arpument for a modern union station. Some of our citzens need to be exhorted not to transgress so I many of our aesthetic las. ivivtns . . . 1 nec ected. OKI wacims aim fc--piled up in public places, boxes and barrels in front yards, ash heaps in public view, dumping proundd on prominent thoroughfares detract painfully from the merits of our city. Immoral Condltiou. "Immoral conditions prevailing? in our city brinp shame to our respect1 able citzens. South Pend is better in reputation over the state than she is in reality at home. Such violation of law as we witnes-j here would be expected in Terre Haute, but ?n South Hend it is inexcusable. It may be a little difhcult to determine Just where the blame for this coni anion lies, out. u is evmenr, mai while the city administration and the prosecutor's othce are conduct- ! inp their political yparrinp match the city is suffering: unduly from j their folly. There is no reason why I a serious and detirmlned nort to enrone- the I.iw can not meet wun success. The city police are not to blame. They will naturally do whut they think powers higher up expect them to do. "In stimulating a civic spirit we outrht to exalt an Ideal of city life which haa as large a place for the
moral as It has for the Industrial. It would bo a misfortune for South Hend to prow bipirer and not prow t etter. We should strive for a city larger and lovelier; where beauty shall temper business; where morality shall be majmif.crl as men multiply; where selfishness and petty Jealousies shall be swallowed up In wholesome enthusiasm for the buildinjr up of a desirable place In which to live."
SUGGESTS NEEDS OF LARGER CITY "When we build let us build homes, not just houses." is the cry. Yes, wt should build houses that we will not be ashamed to show the visors in our gates. P.ut, a home means more than a place to eat and sleep In, yes more than a a pretty place to live in. A home depends more on the inmates and this brings up the problem of moral training," were the words of Rev. Edward J. Cain, in his sermon on "South IJend's Needs for tho Present Hour," at the civic Sunday services at the Indiana Avenue Christian church. Continuing he mentioned tho needs of the city saying: "As the majority of the new citizens of American birth will probably locate in the south end of the city we will confine remarks to the needs in this end. "We need at present, a branch of the Public library. If our people desire a book from the library they must spend ten cents car fare or take a long walk to get it. We have little or no use of the reading room feature. "We will need another school building in this end, say situated on the corner of Michic.i and Donald. "We ned also a coir. munity center of some kind, some place where public gatherings of al kinds could be held and it should be under the care of the churches of the south end. "Last but by no means least, our churches must adopt more progressive programs to meet even the present demands on them, to say nothing of the greater problems before them. Moral DeiMMid on Churches. "The morals of any city or community depend on the condition of its churches. The real cause of the careless indifference as to churches ana morals or today is tne rauit or the church and its ministry. We have been urging more leniency with our membership and the church has lifted the ban on ono thing after the other until sometimes the only way to tell whether tho institution Is a church or not is to ask what kind of a cluU that is. Jesus said, 'Let your light so shine that men seeing your good would glorify Clod.' And anain, 'Ye are the salt of the earth.' A man or woman desiring to become a member of the church should be made to feel that they are taking the most important step one can possibly take. One that demands the best there is in them. One should be made to realize that the 'Old man of sin Is to he slain and a new man must he born. It is no wonder those outside of the church look with scorn on the institution, they are judging it by itA members. We will continue to have loose law enforcement, loose mora's, corrupt politics and licentiousness as long as those things exist in our churches. "So in getting ready for our city's expansion let us put on a program in- our churches that will bring Its members to be imitators of the Christ, whose name we wear. Let us preach a tospel that condemns gin of oyfkj,y typp fhat (Iemam!s thp 'Abhorrence of the very appearance of evil.' Ijet us make our church houses attractive, let tis make people to feel that they are welcome at our services, let us make them to feel "That it is pood to be found In the House of the Lord.' So that we will be in a position to cultivate and demand pood morals and decent law abidlnp citizens. "Let us then, every one. pet hehind our city. flet interested, he alive to Its needs, be a booster, and lt us make South Hend the best, the most progressive, wide awake and. above all, the cleanest, most Christlike city in Indiana." OWN YOUR HOME, ADVISES PASTOR "One of the things that makes a better city is that jut as many people as possibly can. own their own nomcs. The most desirable sections j of any city is where the occupants jj ui in.- iiuuseb uwn mem. ,vs a rule the landlord does not keep up his rental property as he keeps up th hoiis he liv(F in, and tenants as a rub? do not keep up property that is re nted like they would if it belonged to tlK-m,".' declared Itev. I;, p. Heck tf the Grace M. IZ. church in his sermon Sunday morning on the awakening of the civic spirit. "Let the renter buy the house ho lives In and the chances are about nine to one that that house and surroundings will improe in value and appearance very shortly. That thlnhappening in many places in tho c.ty makes for a hater city in a m cite lial way. Ovnijig- one'b home also helps tho man and increases his value as' a citizen. He can hold hi head a bit hUher with a piece of ual estate ha.U of him. He hat, higher valuation il himself. His family think more of themselves. His fellow citizens mark him up in the scale. He iö more independent. He etscapes that fear that many have that when ho la co mis ( Id ho wjil hive no place to live. IUmhi to Some. "Now, some people to whom thiJ boon it; a possibility owe always thought it to be bevond them If they would look i bout them they would Ke people who nevtr eu: u any irroie thun theniM-Hes who own their homes. The oniy difference betwen them is that their neighbors dared and won out. while thty nev r undertook it. '".tome hard working friend of
.nine in Indianapolis had passed middle life and had nothing of their own except their furniture. They became de.-pcrate in the thought of old n-'e. s-ome six years ago they mortgaged their furniture for to hundred dollars to make the first payment on a humble little cottage without improvements, he was sick at the time, and had been a lot of the time. Their only ir.come was his wages as a, carpenter. When they had the payments well on their way on that an opportunity to buy an improved bungalow at a good figure came and they bought that on faith. They moved into that, re.nodeled the cottage and rented that. "The rent paid the payments on the cottage while they applied tho wages on the bungalow. Today in this brief time they own four properties, all safely taking cmc of themselves own their automobile and live as they never dreamed it was possible for them. Life is worth living to them now. All the blues are gone. Industrial conditions are not
as bad as they used to think. The government is not partial. They simply found an opportunity that was ahvays waiting for them but which they were late in finding. Iiuild a Home. "One way to get more homes in South Ucnd is for many of you who now rent to build your own horn and leave the one you now rent to the newcomer. A fetock campany of citizens is now being formed to nelp you get a start. Onte started you will take care of it yourself and before you dreamed it possible you will be the proud owner of your own home. "This work is not far removed from the vital messages of Christianity. This helps to brlrg out things cf real worth In a many and his family as well as to fnake him supremely happy. Jesus came to save from loss everything fine in humanity. This is one way of doing it. "Xo use talking about having a real city that is not a morally clean city. As long as evil agencies exist and do business here we invite people to come and he preyed upon by these. We can have a clean city only as the moral forces of th; city cooperate. "We recently suffered morally because some of our moral forces became disrupted. While they were having a political fight among themselves the city's welfare was forgotten and law violators went free. A guilty man, whose law breaking is of long standing and which elfects many, was not brought to justice and was turned loose to defy authority again. Now if that polticai scrap is over for a while, and sincerely hope It is, we can all et together to enforce the law to help make this city clean. The devil and' his laborers laugh with glee when the moral forces of a city like this fall to knocking one another and fighting among- themselves. It is time for the city administration, the police force, the prosecutor, the newspapers, tho churches and every other 'mora1. force to get together on a moral program that will make life for law violators intolerable here and that will jt sjh Domestic Section Main Floor House Dress Materials Zephyr Ginghams in plaids, stripes and checks, 32-inch at 35c.

SAYS CHURCHES MUST GROW, TOO "If the j oor go neglected; if opportunity to earn an honest living is denied; If sanitary conditions arc such as to make moral life among them impossible; if civic righteousness and la v enforcement exist only as empty rnrases to be smiled at: who is to blame but the citizen who falls to bring the weight of his moral religion to bear upon social issues?" askfd Uev. It. I McQuary, speaking at the Sunday morning civic ceremonies at the First Christian church on :h subject, "The Christian Citizen of Today." He sid. "In ancient times citizenship pcrtaired oniy to the city, for the nation had not et come to be. Kfo be a citizen, a freeman in any city carried great privileges and rights, arid the pot-essor of uch citizenship regarded it as a great honor a matter of pride. Citizens of South IJend should feel proud in their city. touth Bend business men as well as the leaders in other interests are know n as being among: these who lock forward and ne t backward. "We are shortly to have a large increase In population and pass from a city partly industrial, partly rural, into a city more completely industrial. W-e shall feel more keenly the peculiar problems which confront an industrial city. Class lines will be more sharply drawn. Our already large laboring class will great ly increase. The ancient philosopher! cowered under a wayside wall, away from practical life. Some of the early Christians, blinded by the lot of a speedy second coming of Christ, asknowledgel no obligations to the ; government of this world. "The medieval church shut itself away from the outside world and tried to imitate Christ upon the crossby self mutilation and abstinence, but in this modern day with its social consciousnSi5, the true Christian takes active interest in the affairs of everyday life. The days just now coming for South Iend will be danqcrous. In a mad rush after prosperity we must not forget that our true wealth lies in the golden treasures of mind and heart, in personality, manhood and womanhood. There will be need for the churches to assert themselves, not as institutions striving to dictate politics, bat as influences making for baalnce of life." In concluding his se rmon he said. ... ... , . , .u . . , "In thi hour of tho city's growth and nc'd may he be able to count upon every Christian to do his duty in keeping alive moral conscience and the vision of the four V, 1 1 1 , Vit city. ier uic enurencs niaicn witii a " A.
