THE AMHERST NEWS-TIMES. VOL. V, NO. SO. ISSUED THURSDAY AMHERST, OHIO, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 19?3. V Uubtcrlptlon Price. $1.00 pe. Year This Week By Arthur Brisbane. Don't Kill the Mouse. If Oxen Did It Religious Power Lasts. Army Happy—King Safe. Mr. Zangwlll telling Americans that thnlr "pep" Is lost motion, that they are undignified, unjust, lack shame, etc., wlll be useful to the wise and annoying only to the foolish. It doesn't matter what Mr. Zangwlll Is—la there any truth In what he says? If a humble mouse crawled from a sewer, looked at you with his long quivering nose and ssld, "You are a shameless creature and don't know anything," you should not try to kill that mouse. You should ask yourself, "Is there truth in what the mouse says? If so, how can I correct my fault?" Tbe bad feature of Mr. Zangwill's talk Is the harm It may do to his coreligionists among those already prejudiced. It cannot hurt him, for he will soon be back, safe In England, where they will approve quite generally his views nn America.

A program which will be In keeping with the event Is now being arranged and will be announced later. But his Inaccurate belittling of the Ku - Klux Klan may cause trouble to better Jews than Zangwlll. And his ridiculing ot Christian Science does not come with good grace from one belonging to a race that has so long complained (and Justly) of religious prejudice. However, at his work, Mr. Zangwlll Is to be thanked. The United States and Its people have a thousand defects, many that Mr. Zangwlll could not see or understand. To make us think about them Is to render a service. i Correspondents report that Indiana Is controlled politically by the Ku Kulx Klan, with that control already strong in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas, now spreading Into Ohio and other States.

County nnd municipal law enforcement officials will probably be called by Governor Donahey about December 8 for a conference at Columbus to discuss ways and means of securing more drastic enforcement of the prohibition laws according to announcement from the governor's office., mi'es; The proposed conference Is the out-1 Line, ture work. As the public generally Is Interested to know what roads have been closed during the year of 1923 and now open to travel, a short account of the work done by the County Engineer's Office during this year wlll be of Interest and some Idea of the mount of work that is handled by that Department may be obtained.

In Germany lt plays a greater part than Socialism, bolshev- ism, or capitalism. The Wittelsbach, royal Catholic family of Bavaria, who furnished Kings to Germany long be- for the Protestant Hohenzollerns were known, are again rivals of those Hohenzollerns for the rule of Germany, when she shall become too weak to rule herself. Stresemann, managing the German republic, allows the Hohenzollern Crown Pflnee to return from Holland that his royal Protestant Influence might offset the revolutionary royal Catholic Influence of the Wlttelsbachs lu Bavaria. To let one royal religion light another is bis plan. Frank Falos, a crippled laborer, takes his four young children to the. State Workmen's Compensation Bureau und says, "You feed them, I can't." Ten thousand voices will cry, "What, you can't feed them? You must feed them. It's your duty." To that everybody says, "Amen," yet M»e crippled lather would get no reward, except a quiet conscience, for feeding these children, whereas the community In generul would get the value of tbelr work. Parents are working tor the nation, and supremely wise Prlvldence makes them eager to do it, glad to sacrifice themselves for the coming generation. The Ladles of the Congregational r-huroB will hold their annual bazaar r. I supper In the church parlors tonight. A chicken supper will be served starting at Ave o'clock and continuing intil ull ure served. A tl as display of fancy work, aprons and rugs has also been arranged for. AMHERST FURNITURE CO.

In Germany lt plays a greater part than Socialism, bolshev- ism, or capitalism. The Wittelsbach, royal Catholic family of Bavaria, who furnished Kings to Germany long be- for the Protestant Hohenzollerns were known, are again rivals of those Hohenzollerns for the rule of Germany, when she shall become too weak to rule herself. Stresemann, managing the German republic, allows the Hohenzollern Crown Pflnee to return from Holland that his royal Protestant Influence might offset the revolutionary royal Catholic Influence of the Wlttelsbachs lu Bavaria. To let one royal religion light another is bis plan. Frank Falos, a crippled laborer, takes his four young children to the. State Workmen's Compensation Bureau und says, "You feed them, I can't." Ten thousand voices will cry, "What, you can't feed them? You must feed them. It's your duty." To that everybody says, "Amen," yet M»e crippled lather would get no reward, except a quiet conscience, for feeding these children, whereas the community In generul would get the value of tbelr work. Parents are working tor the nation, and supremely wise Prlvldence makes them eager to do it, glad to sacrifice themselves for the coming generation.
