THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY.

In the opinion of one who has trav-
eled much and observed closely, the
most truly and rightfully contented
people in the United States to-day are
the small landowners in what is
known as the Upper White River Coun-
try, anywhere from Newport. Ark. to
Carthage, Mo. They are contented be-
cause their surroundings are ideal and,
until recently. the great. uneasy. dis
quieting world, with its artificial needs
and inadequate compensations. has
been TO them but little more tangible
than a dream. Here. still existent.
and by reason of their very rarity at
this day and time more delectable
than in the past, are the conditions
which have ever appealed with IRE
sistible force to the independent-spir
tied Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the
supreme ruler Of his own little prin-
cipality; acknowledging no master
save the law-and possibly his fem
mime helpmeet; cringing to no en-
ployer; asking no favors from the
world, save those that his neighbors
freely extend and expect as freely In
return. He lives in a latitude where
the extremes of heat or cold are never
known. and at an altitude that insures
perfect health. The richest bounty
OF Nature has been showered upon
him with unsparing hand, but 1t is a
question whether he more than dimly
realizes the fact. He accepts as a mat
ter of course the fertile soil which
produces in abundance every Guilty.
able growth common to the north
temperate zone. the surrounding for
ests of valuable woods and the under.
lying stratas Of precious minerals. the
springs and streams OF translucent
purity on every hand. the wealth OF
fish and game at his very door. such as
less favored mortals annually travel
hundreds Of miles to find. He Is con.
tented. but small credit is his for that,
for how could he well be otherwise
than content? 1t is sad that such
idealistic conditions may NOT con,
tinue, but II is written that the pres.

must soon give place to others more
appreciative of its Incompatible fea.
lures. A railroad has recently cut its
way through the best OF this region.
and the unaccustomed rustic OF bank
notes and chink OF coin will eventually
tempt the hill-dweller TO part with his
birthri4bt. So 1t has always been in
the worlds history-tha good things
that are ours without price invariably
pass from our hands before we come
TO understand their value. The White
River country will shortly be discov-
cred anew by a class of immigrants
better capable of judging its possibll
ities-the men who seek modest
homes where the LAY Of the land"
will effectually prevent crowding by
too close neighbors. where their cat.
tie can fatten on free range. where
the wealth Of forest and mine awaits
development by intelligent workers.
and where the game and fish offer en-.
joyable recreation to all who have
leisure and inclination for sport.

The two men shook their heads by

the Lord when he spoke to us in Egypt
and gave us the Passover. How fitting
that upon that day the Tabernacle
should be set up in our midst The
Lord reward thee. Bezaleel. and thou,
Aholiab. for thy faithfulness."
The two men bowed low In grateful
recognition of the commendation of
their leader. and then BezaleeI. con

in the work. said:
But it is the faithfulness of the
people which has wrought the work.
Thou recallest how eagerly they

silver and brass. and precious stones

True" replied Moses. "and are they
glad that the task is almost com

Yea. as I passed through the camp
to-day l heard the people singing and
talking together about the Lord. and
rejoicing that soon they would have
his Tabernacle finished And to-mor-
row you will rear it? What news
that will be for the people" and Bez-
aleei turned as though he would go
