DUTY RESTS ON
U. S. TO SUCCOR
WHOLE WORLD
The Rev. C. G. Raker Dwells
Upon Obligations Pressing
Upon This Nation.
■That mere observance of holidays and
mere keeping of formal ceremonies Is not
a Sufficient expression of gratitude to
God on the part of God's most favored
Nation, was held by the Rev. C. G. Baker,
pastor of the West Park Christian
Church last evening at the community
Thanksgiving service in that church,
jollied in by a group of churches com
posed of the West Washington M. E., the
West Washington Presbyterian, the
/Pbnrch of the Brethren and the West
Park Christian.
He said that “the world’s wealth lias
been poured into America's banks, the
world’s suffering is shut from us by
three thousand miles of ocean barrier” —
that ‘•America's business depression in
but as a drop in the bucket to Europe a
poverty and suffering.
LIBERTY
FIRST GAINED.
“Religious liberty, economic oppor
tunity, social equality," ho added, have
been our heritage since our birth as a
Nation. "When the first Thanksgiving day
wa* observed it was truly a day for re
membering God’s blessings."
“We dare not allow the day to degen
erate Into a mere formal holiday,” he
said. “Let us cease to think of it as the
day that closes the football season, or as
th* day of days to go hunting. Yes, let
u* give up the idea that it Is the day for
the year's biggest dinner. Let us even
pass over the idea that it is the great
day for getting the family together. All
of these should give precedence to the
great ideal of a day in which the world's
happiest nation acknowledges its obli
gation to God in" no uncertains terms,
and that means that in the midst of com
parative abundance we must see to it
that the starving of Armenia are fed, that
Russia's atorm-tossed millions are given
aid, that the sufferers of France and
Belgium and: Austria shall share In our
abundance.
SPEAKS OF
MEMORIAL.
“It means,” he added, “that in a Na
tion’s gratitude for victory and pros
perity we shall go on in onr planning
for a great memorial in the heart of our
eity where generations that are to be
mar read our gratitude in a lasting and
aervieeable structure built to honor
heroes and to render service.”
SEES STANDARD
OF CHRISTIANITY
IN ASCENDENCY
Pastor Says Statesmanship,
Long Pagan, Shows
Awakening.
Reasons for Thanksgiving were enum
erated by the Rev. W. O. Trucblood,
pastor of the Fi-st Friends Church, at a
union service of five churches at the
Riverside M. E. Church last night. The
churches which participated were the
Riverside M. E.. the Unity Methodist,
the Union Congregational, the Riverside
Baptist and the International Holiness
Church.
“Above our gratitude for material well
being—for our granaries are overflowing
end onr warehouses full: pestilence does
not stalk in our land—but transeiuling
all this the heart of America today
should give thanks, that the leaders of
onr national and international affairs are
freely applying the principles of Jesus
Christ as they attempt to untangle the
snarls which have been threatening
ctvilizatlon,” the Rev. Mr. Trueblood
said.
“High standards of morality and
ethics have characterized the policies of
most of our institutional life, both na
tional and International. The banking
system, postal system, scientific and
' kindred organizations have given heed
In a large measure to the Christian
standard of ethics. Standards of staets
manship have all too long remained
pagan in conception and practice. Hard
ing and Hughes, both Christian gentle
men, are winning the confidence of this
Nation and the cations of the world, as
they boldly declare for righteousness,
justice and mercy in all statesmanship.
"For what doth the Lord require of
thee, Oh America, but to do Justly, love,
mercy and walk humbly with thy God?”

Mentho-Sulphur, a pleasant cream, will
soothe and heal akin that is Irritated or
broken out with eczema; that Is covered
with ugly rash or pimples, or is rough
or dry. Nothing subdues fiery skin erup

Thfi moment this sulphur preparation
is applied the Itching stops and after two
or throe applications, the eczema is gone
and the skin is delightfully clear and
smooth. Sulphur is so precious as a
skin rer;'dy because it destroys tiie para

disfigurement. Mentho-Sulphur always
heals eczema right up.
A small Jar of Mentho-Sulphur may'

Most Accidents Occur
At Deceptive Crossings
Where Danger Is Appa rent Caution of Motor
ists Prevents Crashes.
Really dangerous street and railway
crossings are not the oues at which the
most motor car accidents occur, in the
opinion of a member of the Indianapolis
police department motor corps who has
investigated dozens upon dozens of acci
dents within the paet two years. In fact,
he says, it has been his observation that
the more dangerous the crossing the fewer
the accidents, and the heavier the traffic
the less likelihood there is of a really
serious accident.
Far more dangerous, he insists, are the
street and railway crossings which give
a fairly clear view for some distance each
way. His explanation is that if the dan
ger is great the motorist nnd pedestrian
take special precautions, if the natural
hazard is not particularly apparent they

, SPEEDWAY CROWDS
ALWAYS ON LOOKOUT.
"It 1* very noticeable that during the
days immediately preceding the big
Speedway race in May that although the
city Is filled with automobiles from all
parts of the United States, there are re
i markably few serious accidents. Os
j course, there are the usual number of
batered fenders and dented backs due to
cars following each other closely along
the street and the stopping suddenly at
the signal of a traffic officer, tut there
are no real craahes.* This is because
drivers are looking out for trouble.
“Also, we seldom get a real automo
bile aoeideut Ju the downtown district.
This Is because people know the down-
IU h & ''s v ’ , • rs ' *■' *.f p i" *
•- r-+ ~ r* r- l ! i -- 1 —. * - - | - >
town district is a dangerous one for
driving and they act aeeordingly.
"We have spoken often a* non S our
selves of the scarcity of accidents at
street corners which are closely hedged
in with buildings, sneh as Illinois anu
Thirtieth street. Drivers approaching
this corner, and others like it are
‘Miffed’ by the dangerous appearance of
the place and tnen they get a sudden at
tack of cautiousness. On the other hand
there is a constant string of accidents
at Meridian and North streets. On only
one the four corners at this intersection
does a building come to the sidewalk Hn s
and both North and Meridian street's are
open to view for almost a block in each
direction. And yet the street is sei
dom free from an assortment of broken
spokes and shattered glass from wind
shields nnd headlights. The same thing
holds good for Meridian and St. Clair
streets, another open corner.
TROUBLE COMES WHEN
DANGER NOT APPARENT.
“Mv only explanation is that @t these
points the driver is nqt eonsetous of any
unusual danger and as a result In many
instances he does not display even or
dinary prudence.
“Railroad and Interurban employes
have told me that the worst automobile
accidents do not occur at the right-angle
crossings of the most naturally danger
ous character. They say that the worst
accidents happen at crossings where the
track can be seep for long distances in
each direction oftent where the road and
tracks are parallel and where the cross
ing is diagonal instead of at right angles.
In these cases they at >
ber of motprists never think to look be
hind them before crossing the tracks,
and are struck by trains or interurban
cars conjing from the same direction as
themselves, and which could have been
seen as far hack as a mile, had the
motorist taken the ordinary precaution
of looking back.
"It seems to be that the'logical plaee
to erect danger signs is not at points so
dangerous as to advertise the fact by
their very appearance, but at these de
ceptively open corners and crossings
which the automobile drivers seem never
to notice.”

WELLINGTON, Ufbio, Nov. 25.—The
State game farm heie raised 6,000 ring
necked pheasants during the present
season and shipped them to all parts of
Ohio. The farm is keeping 700 matured
birds for the purpose of continuing the
hatchery next season. This policy, it is
expected, will be followed until the
State is amply restocked with the dimin
ished nimrod’s prise.
5-CENT CHICAGO
FARE BLOCKED
BY U. S. WRIT
- *
J udge Carpenter Grants Tem
porary Injunction Against
Enforcement of Order.
CHICAGO, Nov. are
still paying eight cents to ride on sur
face lipe cars despite the fact that an
order by the Illinois commerce com
i mission directed that a flve-cent fare be
restored last midnight.
An injunction prohibiting the fare re
duction until Dec. 2 and fixing that date
as the time for a hearing of the case
on i its merits was granted by* Judge
George A. Carpenter of the United States
District Court. The United States Cir
ouit Court of Appeals will hear the peti
tion for a permanent injunction.
In asking for the restranlng order, the
traction company raised the contention
that the fare reduction is confiscatory in
that it deprives the company of revenue
without which (he surface lines cannot
operate profitably. Tha cempany will be
required to submit eviaenee in support
of this contention.
’ The commerce commission will be re
quired to submit evidence that the flve
cent fare is justified.
