The chances are that the horse

bran or meal for several DAYS
will be Of benefit. Standing
ia cold water when hrst affect

Had better cover the shoots of
June corn with paper bags or
other means and cut out tassels
as soon as they appear. Then
dust silks with tassels of the
large corn. Perhaps growing
two kinds in alternate rows and
cutting out all tassels of one
kind as soon as they appear will
accomplish the purpose in an
easier way.

Friday Nights Session A
 Most Enjoyable one.

The business sessions of Burrow Presbytery, which was in session at the First Presbyterian church. closed at late hour Saturday night.
 The business transacted at the meeting was of very important na- lure and indicates that there is to be general getting busy in the ranks of Presbyterianism in Eastern Arkansas. On Friday night the services were held under the auspicies of the Ladies Presbyterian Missionary Society and the service was replete with most en- joyable, interesting and altogether en- tertaining features. In fact it may we'll be said that it was absolutely one of the very finest services of the kind ever held in our city.

 Hazel, the little daughter Of MT. and Mrs. w. D. Wade, fell from the counter in the fruit stand Thursday and broke her left arm at the elbow. Mrs Wade had left her on the coun- ter 10 wait on customer. Hazel oe- cided that she wanted to get down and in swinging down on her arms, With her face to the counter, her hold slipped and she fell backward. She was reported resting well this morn ing.

 While Df. Williams spoke his ad- dress was taken in short hand by Miss Clara Cochran, and it is the intention of the ARGUS editor to publish it in i full at some future time.
 Just prior to the address of Dr.. 1 Williams, little Miss Atha Brooks gave a recitation which required just
 twenty minutes to give. The recitr7
 ton was of missionary spirit and given with musical accompnament. To say that it was finely done does not half way express the verdict of the splendid audience whose hearts were touched with the spirit of the grand and lofty sentiments of christian love so feelingy portrayed by the talented little artist, for such she showed herself to be. In fact it has been said by many of those who heard Little Miss Atha, in this magnificent number. that 1t was the most remark able feat of the kind ever witnessed in the city. Some were free to say that never in their lives had they seen such wonderful talent displayed or q number so well and remarkably ren- dered as by this little Miss of only 10 years.
 Another enjoyable feature of the Friday evening program was vocal selection given by Rev. A. B. Johnson in the Choctaw (Indian) language. Rev. Johnson has for l8 years been a Presbyterian Missionary among the Indians.

An Unusual Entertainment.

A very unique and what promises to be one of the most enjoyable social events of the Fall is the Halloween Party which is being planned by some of the ladies of Brinkley for Thursday night Oct. 3l st.
 The Ghost party for all are to be masked is to be given at oae of the very prettiest and most hospitable homes in the city, tho the identity of this home is not purposed to be reveal ed until the ghosts are ushered in.
 It is the purpose of the hostess and ladies assisting in giving the ghost party to have all of the ghosts and "ghostlets' to assemble at some con- venient places-one on the south side Of town an! the other on the north side-and then from there be taken in big hay wagons to the place of en- i tertainment.
 At the home very interesting and enjoyable social evening will be the or der, and delightful novelty in refresh ments-delicious home made pnmp- kin pie and jersey butter milk-will be served. A small pittance will be charged each ghost and the amount thus raised will go to the Woman $ Endeavor Society of the lst. Presby- terian Church. Other announcements will be made next week.
