A CITY OF CHURCHES

Sleeping drowsily under the suo. tropical sun of a Mexican cline and her oriental atmosphere, lies the Ciu dad la Peubla. the famous "Cl1y of Churches which for nearly 4.G years has borne the distinction of b. eiEg he center of religious inauCn'', c"- er the Republica de la Mexlcana. Tie high domes or the stately spires of two score cathedrals and churches rear their pinacles skyward to the cloudless heavens of perpetual Junetide and give to the old Pueblo the fame which carries it's dis;nc. tion to other lands.
 Pine Bluff may justly be termed the Pueblo of Arkansas" Lifting their graceful spires heavenward near two score sacred edifices bear testimony to the justness of the claim. And Pine Bluff is but a fifth as large as the Mexican city. Pine Bluff Is es- sentially a city of churches. As the season of Christmas approaches, the time is an appropriate one for telling the story of Pine Bluffs churches, for what more appropriate theme could be suggested by the occasion of the Savior's resurrection than to tell of the results of his death?
 This city has always been recog- nized as religious center for the state Its importance from relig- ious standpoint has ever placed it in the front rank of Arkansas towns, and in later years this importance Not only has the membership grown to enormous proportions amongst the various denominations of the city, but the churches have multiplied. new edifices have been erected at tremen- dous cost and religion has spread it's broad tentacles over every DOT tion of this growing metropolis, has permeated every nook and crevce with it's benign influence until today Pine Bluff takes an undoubted prece- dence in matters religious throughout the state, considering the question of population.
