COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 6.-—Res olution referring to the approaching presidential election and declaring that “the peculiar allegiance that a fa'thful Catholic owes,- according tc* the teaching of his church, toward a foreign sovereign who also claims supremacy in secular affairs may clash with the best interests of the ccMntry,” was adopted here today by the National Lutheran Editors as sociation. The resolutka voiced support of the principle of separation of church and state, but urged ed'tors to take no stand either for Herbert Hoover c«r Governor Smitli' in the campaign. It was adopted after the associa tion composed t*' editors of publica tions reaching about 2,000,000 read ers had made known its attitude to ward a Catholic president in a state ment drawn up by Dr. C. R. Tapper! of Philadelphia, and adopt'd by the assco’ation. Dr. Tappcrt is editor cl “The Lutherischer Herald.” The statement declared: “If the issue were purely politi cal the church papers could not be particularly concei*ned abe-.it it. If it were a matter only of the per-, sonal religion of the candidate it would be contrary to the spirit of our ce-nstitution to prejudice a mar. recaure of his chu:eh aff-liatiorr. The situation, however, is peculiar be cause o' claims, teachings and prin ciples of the Roman Catholic church where are antagonistic to an irre doncilable with the fundamental principles set forth in the cor.stitu tion of our country concerning the separation cf church and state, such as: the opposition o” this church tc the toleration by the state of any re ligion othej than the Roman Catho lic, its denial cf the right of indi vidual judgment, liberty of conscience and freedom of worship, the claim that the worldly gv/ernment is in duty bound not only to assist, sup port and protect exclusively the Ro man Catholic church but to suppi’ess, if necessary by force, every other re ligion. Allowance may be made for the temporary suspension of the act ual enfc* cement of such claims and principles, but they are recognized ideals, the realization of which must be the aim and constant endeavor of every faithful Catholic. “The situation is further peculiar because of the allegiance a faithful Catholic owes, according to the teachings cf his church, towards a foreign soverign who claims suprem acy also in secular affairs and who has world-wide political inteuests of his own which may severely clash with the best interests of our coun try.” txt A simple way to destiny ants on lawns of small area is to spray with kerosene emulsion or with a very strong soap wash, prepared by dis solving any common laundry soap in water at the rate of 1-2 or 1 pound of soap to a gallon of water. If the ant nests can be found, boiling water or a small quantity of kerosene will sometimes kill the insects in the nests. These fluids cannot, however, be applied in quantity with safety to the grass on lawns. In this case the On early Wednesday morning, Sep- j tember 5, 1928. the death angel vis ited the Greenwod Hospital and car ried home the sp rit of M:\ W. L. Winn. The sad news came as a sho.-k to the many friends of Mr. Winn who did net know he was seri ously ill. He was rushed to the hos pital Sunday where his life hung be tween life and death until the end; the pc'or fellow suffered agonies be fore he was relieved of his suffering. Mr. Winn was known by his relat ves and friends as Warren. He spent his complete life in the Rehoboth com munity. He was forty-eight yea:c <« d May IGth. He joined the Rchc- both Church when a young boy. Mr. Winn had all the careful nurs ing devoted loved ones and faithful doctors could render unto him, at home and hospital. His devoted wife and other relatives were at h s bed side when the end came. Some fifteen o r sixteen years ago here ^yj nn waS married to Miss Jen- elle Joi’dca. To this union were bo.’n seven bright children, who are left to help their mother bear the great buidcn left upon her. Being a Godly woman, she bravely takes up her cross- She loves her Lord and trusts Him for help. God never puts more upon us than we can bear; as the Rcy| Hodgens said, “God gives strength for every burden; we can not understand why, but his work here was fin’shed and he was called up higher.” This family has known many heart aches in the silent city of the dead on the church yard rest, the father and mother, two brothers, and several nieces and nephews, also other rel atives. The family connection was unusually large; about one third of the large attendance at funeral were relatives, although the weather had been very bad, swollen streams, and bridges washed away kept the pas tor Rev.

Gilchrist, Earl Fuller, E. M. Morgan and H. E. Freeland, all good friends of the departed brother, The choir softly sang as they came in “Nearer my God to Thee.” Rev. Hodgens, a former pastor, read some verses from first Corrinthians, from twelvth through forty first verse. He spoke something of his love for the depart:d brother whom he served as pastor several years. After a sort service the friend - were allowed to view the body, and passed out of the church to leave the privacy of the last look for the fam ily; then the body was tenderly car- r ed to its last resting place to await the resurrection of the dead.

X An important preventive measure in the control of the flag-smut dis ease on w*heat is the sowing of in fested fields to other crops the f<* lowing j c ar unless a resistant wheat is used, as flag-smut spores easily survive in the soil from harvest t; seeding time and are present to in fest fall sown wheat. The continueu growing of susceptible wheat on in fested land may result in an increase of the olsease. Since flag-smut af fects or’y wheat, other crops may be safely 4 rown in the rotation. Any wheat crop residues or material that may certain flag-smut spores, such as straw, manure, or a straw mulch on potatoes, may be a source of in festation if applied to the land. Where such flag-smut infested resi dues are used, some other crop than wheat should be grown.
