A MODEL TOWN
The town of Hoaper, Neb., has laid
claim to the “Law Abiding Champion-
ihip.”
It is a town of 1,014 population, and
during 1928 not a single arrest was
made within its borders. \
All the people obeyed the law. At
least none were caught disobeying it.
William J. Dau, chairman of the
board of trustees of that town, says
that the churches are well attended,
the schools are well filled, and the
pec pie mostly “min^i their^ own busi
ness.” ^ \
Here's-the valuable lesson that can
be learned from the record of this
model town. The people mostly “mind
their own business.”
.When people do that, there is very
fittle chance of their breaking any
af the laws. More than that, there is

Without faith, little that is worth'

corded in history is a monument to |
I unswerving faith. „ j

himself.
By faith, the homely Lincoln ham
mered away through poverty, ad/er-
versity and a bloody war,—until he
drove the word “slavery” from the ■
statutes of the United States of Amer-'
ica, and made his name immortal. j
By faith Woodrow Wilson, backed!
by a great liberty-loving people, de
livered a hemisphere from the menace
of tyranny. Like Lincoln, he gave his
life for principle, in faith that never
