ing what advancement had been made
in the enforcement of the law.
All -who had radios enjoyed the
numbers which were played by James
E. Hatchet on last Monday evening.
The first one was surely excellent,
and for the running aginst the
microphone by some of the crowd
while Mr. Hatchett was playing the I
second number he would have made J
a better showing. To add to thi3
someone ran against his elbow,
knocking the violin bow out of his
hand. Notwithstanding all this he
was able to make a good showing.
Says Come Get the Hen.
L. C. Horchor had a nice flock of
chickens a few days ago, and some
chicken thief came and took all but
one of the flock. Mr. Horchor said
ithat they had just as well come and
get the other hen, and the chicken
coop, as he will not have any use
for them now. We say that some
one should have been there and gave
the miscreant a charge of buck shot
as he was leaving, and for ballast
make him stand up when he ate
his dinner.

has conducted the Murray Mercan

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY
From Tuesday's Dailv
Yesterday the high school and the

pleasantly carried out and partici

young peojde.
The young people sang a large
number of patriotic songs, being led
by Mr. Fager, musical supervisor
and Miss Vyral Fossler, this being
a very pleasing feature of the pro
gram. The j'oung people were also en
tertained by a A-ery fine address on
"George Washington," given by At
torney J. A. Capwell. and which was
one of the most able and finished
addresses that the young people of
the school have enjoyed in many
months. Mr. Capwell covered very
thoroughly the life of the Father of
His Country from different phases
and in his clever and pleasing man
ner presented it so that it could
readily be grasped at once by the
students and carrying in it the les
sons that the life of Washington had
left on the history of his country.

BIBLE SCHOOL LESSON
Sunday, February 28th.
By M. a Brlgrg
I
"ITT
Golden Text: Think not that I
came to destroy the law, or the
prophets, I came not to destroy but
to fulfill. Matt. 5:17.
Respect and Obey the Law.
The law student, when beginning
the study of the law as a profession
finds a diversity of definitions for
law. One rule of action, and one more
elaborate, "a rule of action emin
ating from the superior by which
the inferior is governed." There are
good, and in the case of American
laws, the superior is the voice of the
people, which is the voice of God.
There is another definition which we
think in a way is very applicable to
the case and tells the constituency of
law. This law is the concrete ex
periences of the people in the best
government of themselves.
The matter resolves itself into the
phase of who has the right to make
the laws. In the case above cited,
when the people are the sovereign,
ilLis very naturally the case that they
are the ones from whom the law
comes, and guided by the experiences
of mankind from the earliest glim
merings of the world's history, the
revelations from the Maker of the
universe. God, the Father, and Jesus
Christ, the Son. they will not go
wrong in making the rules by which
they shall be guided in the conduct
of the affairs of mankind.
"In the beginning God created the
crld and all things therein." He
was the author of the universe, the
world and the heavens. He, therefore,
of necessity, had the right, and still
retains the right to make and have
executed, the laws.
There are different laws, all in
tended for the best regulation of the
affairs of mankind. Some are framed
to promote progress, and in order
that public improvements may be
furthered, others to define rights of
persons, rights of property, and the
rights of the government that is to
execute the laws. Others are restric
tive, there are international laws.
constitutional laws, common laws,
statuatory laws, laws of nature, which
are the laws of God.
After the world had become peo
pled and there were diverse ideas of
how the people should conduct them
selves, and the Isrealits had been op
pressed in Egypt, and had been led
out of their bondage, the Red Sea
being divided for their escape, thru
His servant, Moses, the Great Jahovah
handed down a set of laws for the
government of man which have been
the foundation of all law and con
stitutional rights since. In them it
is also seen that God expected man in
a measure to work out his own des
tiny, and the manner of his own gov
ernment. Tbas set of laws are in
short as follows:
The Ten Commandments.
1. Thou shalt have no other
gods before Me.
2. Thou shalt not make any
iniage for a god, either in
heaven or on earth.
3. Thou shalt not take the
name of the Lord, thy God, in
vain.
4. Remember the Sabbath day
to keep it holy.
5. Six days shalt thou labor
and do all thy work.
6. Honor thy father and thy
mother, that thy days may be
long in the land.
7. Thou shalt not kill.
8. Thou shalt not commit
adultry.
9. Thou shalt not steal.
10. Thou shalt not bear false
witness against thy neighbor.
When these were handed down
from the mount by God through
Moses and were delivered unto the
people they pronounced them good.
As the world grew and the people
multiplied other laws were necessary
for the regulation and government of
the people.
Governments were instituted among
men and laws particularly applicable
to the particular governments were
made and, in most cases, with a view
to the best interests of the people
and of other nations or governments
International law or the comity of
nations have been established that
their relations might be more agree
able and that safety and justice
might prevail.
Then came some of the Pharasees
to the Master saying as they desired
to entangle Him in the meshes, of law
with what they thought was a hard
question and asked Him whether it
were right to give tribute unto
C?,esar, as he, the ambassador of the
most high God, was teaching that all
must give obedience to God.
They had thought that if He should
say that there was no cause for ren
dering obedience unto Caesar they
would complain against Him to the
Roman law, and if He did say to re
spect the law of Rome, then the peo
ple would forsake Him and therefore
they asked the question.
The Master said where is the trib
ute money? When it was produced
He asked whose image and subscrip
tion is this on the coin. They said
it is Caesar's. Then came the reply,
"Render unto Caesar the things
which are Caesar's and
unto God the things which are of
God."
In other words He wished to im
press on them that it was necessary
for all to observe the laws under
which they live.
In our case the laws of this land
guarrantees life, liberty and the per-;
suit of happiness, and it also requires
that we be just to each, other and in;
it is embodied the laws of the ten
commandments as given above: Thou
shalt not kill; Thou 6halt not com-
mit adultry; thou shalt not steal.
an(j tnou 6halt not lie about thy
neighbors. f
The laws guarantee you safety in
your homes, an opportunity to make

living and for this vou are also
jexpected. to observe the laws which
i the whole Deonle have made. God
enters into partnership with man
kind and in this partnership He
furnishes the land, the balmy winds,
the copious rains, the sunshine, man
is expected to provide only the toil
in order to raise a crop. This is only
because he was disobedient for until
the fall, all was entirely free.
Now we are citizens of the best
country on the globe, we full-chested
Americans all bost of this, and while
this is so, we have to obey the law,
whether every particular one is
agreeable to us or not. The highway
traffic laws are made for the safety
of all the people. The glareing lights
are a menace to the traveling pub
lic and a set of rules are required
that all may observe then and safety
for all results. Just as these laws and
rules are observed are we safe, and
he who does not observe them has no
right to expect that protection which
he is not willing to give. In the case
of human laws the laws should be
obeyed while we have them, if they
are not what is required change them,
but while they are on the statute
books obey and respect them, and un
less one can do this they are not good
American citizens.
