Mrs. Williams, Lecture.

Mrs. Harry Williams did a good
days work in Vinita yesterday. In the
afternoon she addressed the Ladies'
Missionary Society at the home OF
Mrs. E n. Ratcliff. At night she ad-
dressed popular audience at the
Presbyterian church, and after this
met three bands of young people to
advise them concerning work. A very
attentive audience listened to her ad-
dress last night. This was birds
eye view of the work on the foreign
field superintended by the Board of
the Southwest Though the speaker
has never visited the mission stations
across the sea, she spoke as one per-
sonally familiar with scenes and in
cidents belonging to the missionary's
experience. The audience paid the
closest attention and expressed appre-
citation of che excellent things given.

Il proved to be an army of ants. each

completely hid its little body. On
closer view / saw a parallel line OF
ants returning unloaded. or empty

rather long, steep hill In crossins

few ants fell out. never to 60 back
but the broken ranks instantly filled
and the procession moved on unceas-
ingly as before. During the busy sea
