And the men who will permit ther families to sit under such accusations are not real red blooded men. The threat of this evavngelist that the church was strong and would take tobacco awaay from men as it had done liquor, and then comparing users, by innuendo, with the hog was without reason. Tobacco was a bad habit but it did not make a man a at Lodi hos-!ho; Arastic steps in suppressing it vism into existence. The speaker told a story of sup pressing cards and how the boys learned to play secretly, then explain ed the dangers coming from secret sins. Called attention to things that had been permitted in churches in Medina that were far more dangerous to youth than dancing. Emphasis was put on the fact that if one's Christian ity couldn't eo to a dance with the individual then the dance should be cleaned until it could. In closing the speaker alluded to the fact that parents often prayed over their children, as was well, but did not give them confidence and light as to matters that had to do with their very salvation, which would in -m si in An i have been more rational than so the moral of Washington and Lin-1 much praying. mlj I Summed up in a few words the Mr. and Mrs. Glenn D.

If the slums of two-score cities Had been dumped into our midst, Overrunning our town with such creatures; If bold thief, hold-up, harlot and clown, Had gathered together in our town, Determined to stay with us here; Then a travelling duo of the stripe that we had, With songs that were crude and mes sage real bad.

Attacks on individuals could be ex pected to do little good, and in nine cases out of ten they were fraught with harm to the individual and the his : community. Recent attaacks had been indiscreet even as attacks. Dancing had often been conducted under very unsavory conditions; the conditions were wrong but that did not make the dancing wrong as an amusement or recreation. Had no knowledge of such conditions in Me dina. Where conditions are wrong correct the conditions not try and stamp out the amusement that may have been made the lure to bring about the conditions. Clean up danc ing and clean out the things that in themselves are evil. If Medina is not a good town why don't some one point out in what way it is not; what are the evils so loudly declaimed against; dancing was the evil assailed and that without specifying any instance? But for the severe weather stand ing room in St. Paul's church would have been at a premium. This in it self is an indication of what the people of Medina think of the psuedo evangelist and his bombast. Our people are good, you made a bad guess, I Your crass stones failed to ht them, Go back to the slums, to people you know, Your wings are too frail to use yet. Our boys and our girls heard much evil from you. Your tales of debauching did shock them, If that is the side of the gospel you see, Columbus, 0., Feb. 4, 1920 Sealed proposals will be received at the office of the State Highway Commissioner at Columbus, Ohio, un til two o clock P.

So on your way, 'Bo, and keep going, Don't ever come back here again, We were patient this time for the dear cause sake, Goodbye, chase yourself, speed re gain. (Third spasm). To some in the church belongs part of the blame. They're cur'ous for stories of the bad side of life. Without courage to seek out badness and view it, Lest neighbors should hear and they later on rue it, Seek salacious recountre as they hold hand of "dear" wife. A craning of necks quickly followed slight hint, That the story gave promise of spice, The more lurid the tale the more eager the flock, AH eyes on the "preacher," not one on the clock. While salacious tidbits he recited. SCRIPTURE: "NOT EVERY ONE THAT SAITH UNTO ME, LORD! LORD! OBITUARY Ervin A. Griesinger, son of Wil helm and Fredenca Griesinger was horn Nov. 13. 1892. in Medina, Medi na county, Ohio. He died at his late residence on W. Friendship street, Medina on Feb. 8, 1920, at the age of 27 years, 2 months and 25 days. Mr. Griesinger was united in mat rimony to Miss Bessie tover, daughter rimony to Miss Bessie Stover of Wads worth, May 14, 1913, and to this union were born two children-, Don ald Richard and Dale Opal. The decpppeH was a member of the Knights of Pythias, Comet Lodge No. 60, also a member of the local Fire Department and was owner of the Union TJelivery Service of Medina. He has clerked in nearly every gro cery store and meat market in Medin a When ever extra help was needed. He purchased the Union Delivery two years ago and has done his best to please the public in every way. He worked for the public interests and was always ready and willing to lend a helping hand whenever needed. Funeral services were held from the Congregational church, Medina, with Knights of Pythias and Medina Firemen attending the funeral in a body. The Knights of Pythias took charge of the service at Spring Grove cemetery where the remains were laid to rest. The deceased leaves his wife, two children, his father, mother, two bro thers and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his untimely death. He has gone from his dear ones, his children, his wife. Whom he willingly toiled for, and . loved as his life; Oh, God! how mysterious and how strange are Thy ways, To take from us this loved one in the best of his days. Card of Thanks We wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to our rela tives, friends and neighbors, also Rev. W. H. Bryenton and singers, for the kindness, sympathy and beautful floral offerings tendered us in the loss of our dear daughter and sister, Hazel. Mr. and Mrs. John H. Atkins and family. (Prologue.) The Bible is a most precious book, Misquoted though tis often; By knaves and men who should know better, Censure of self to soften. (First spasm.) The agony is over, The spasms all are spent, The flow of gush and gurgle Is done, he's gone, "went." His tales were wild and woolly, His "gospel" badly twisted, He swung his arms, beat the air, His body often listed. "Don't dance, my boy, you'll go to hell Your on the road already;" "Come walk with me, and youll agree That I've reformed I'm steady." Come walk with me and loud pro claim The glories of my preaching, You may not understand my tale But you'll agree 'tis fetching. Not all of the blame the "preacher" should bear, His stories he colored to please those who came. I To draw men and women, to church night after night, Stories lurid and sparkling 'twas fair to recite, For the old gospel stories were far too tame. (Epilogue.) They've gone, departed, left for home, God bless them if tis possible, Their work was raw, uncouth, pro fane, In return Medinaites were hospitable.
