Truths Pondered While
"Then gently scan
your brother man'
—By Mr. Modestus—
This is a "free country"—
Governed by democratic methods—
Which includes tolerance for minor
ities—
Because today's minority may be to
morrow's majority—
That's why there is a hangover of
"hatchet men" in Weirton—

Former channel boundary marks

Seeming to float in a world full of

Diffusion of knowledge, partly con

Increase of intelligence, not alto

Wiping out of local prejudices, con-

Wider ranges of thinking, in per
spectives opened by new experiences-
Smashing of superstitions, in light
of world-knowledge—
These are the floodlights which
frighten conservatives—
Giving jitters to minds anchored to
fixed ideas—
Because they reveal the old sources
of power—
Explain the why and the terminus
of privilege—
These are the chemicals washing
away the superfluous clouds—
Developing photogi'aphic films in
minds young and younger—
Unfolding the picture of democracy.
There are troglodytic minds and
wills—
Willing to blacken the sun and shut
ut the moon and stars-
Cut all the power lines which carry

Turn back the clocks of human his-

1859/
State Auditor Joseph T. Ferguson
announced Monday at Columbus the
distribution of $1,674,328 to Ohio coun
ties as their share of July sales tax
revenues, including $30,566 for But
ler county.
Ferguson said distribution of Au
gust revenues would be withheld next
month from a number of counties in
debted for care of their wards in
state institutions, unless the counties
made a settlement.
Previous inquiry developed that
Butler county is indebted only on cur
rent bills and officials were planning
to take any legal steps available in
case the apportionment from the sales
tax were paid by the state.

Reinstate the rule of the claw and

Give ruling power to mere cunning
and clever greed—
Clamp the controls of ignorance and
superstition—
Again upon the minds of free peo

There are only about 75 thousand
mechanics employed—
In the making of metal working
machine tools—
But there are millions of other tool
makers and tool users—
Whose minds have been developing
the capacities of co-ordinated self
control.
