Gen. Washington As A Mason.

The Masonic Lodge at Fred

day of the present month observed
the 150th anniversary Of General
George Washington's initiation
into Masonry. When Gen. Wash
ington was initiated into the
order no unusual display was
made at the ceremonies, and the
Lodge at Fredericksburg still has
in its possession the records OF
Washngton's entrance into the
fraternity, the Bible upon which
he took the obligation, and the
check for two pounds and three
shillings, his fee for entrance,
These relics are very highly
Afized by the Lodge, and have
never been out Of its possession
bat once. This was five years
ago when they were taken tc
Philadelphia, where q Masonic
celebration was being held.

THE PAUPERS AGAIN.
What The County Judge OF Lawrence
Does For These Charges.

n At the October term of the
county court in Sharp county the
county paupers were let for 1926
per head per month. The amount
was for food, clothing and medi-
cal attention. 1t is very apparent
that the poor unfortunates who
have to be kept by the county
cannot be kept with anything
like half way decency on such
figures. When our present coun-
ty judge Poindexter went into
office he found that the paupers
bad been let out from year to
year for S4,00 and $500 per head
per month. He readily saw that
the amount was inadequate and
refused to let the poor unfortu-
mates out at such figures. He
demanded better care for them
and has been paying something
like 5000. 1t pays to be humane
with such rds.-Walnut Ridge
Blade.

States Money For Farmers.

Hon. Hal G. Norwood of Polk
county favors the State loaning
its money to the farmers, rather
than to the banks. He says:
eff the state wants to help the
farmers and has money to loan,
why not let the farmers have it
direct and take cotton as security ?
Time and space forbid going into
details, but the state could have
at each county seat an agent who
could be authorized to advance SO
much money per bale of cotton
as shown by warehouse receipt.
eff cotton is good security to
commission men and banks, why
is it not good for the state? Why
should the state loan the money
to the banks at 4 or 6 per cent,
and let the banks in turn loan it
to the farmers at 10 per cent?"

Judge Curtis Experience.

Judge Alonzo Curl, of the
Chancery Court, who lives at Hot
Springs, recently had an unusual
experience. While on his way to
Montgomery county to hold court
he stopped at the house Of a man
named Shockley, who was ill.
While the Judge was there
Shockley died, and in telephon-
ing the facts of the death and the
presence of Judge Curl in the
house back to Hot Springs, the
message was misunderstood ano
made to appear that Judge Curl
himself had died. His family &C.
cepted the report as true, and
the papers printed the supposed
deceased a nice obituary, which
the Judge had the pleasure Of
reading.

Sixth avenue. there being less than

f1uence of Masonry"
ANY fraternity such as the ma
sonic" said Rev. Young, which en-
forces the idea of the worship of God
is doing a great good for the country
The most important civiliz1ng lnf1u-
ence of masonry is that which pertains
to morals. Nations have fallen in the
past and not because they lacked in
riches or the conception of the beau
tiful, but because their lack of moral
ideas. The man who stands by his
vows is the man who is exhibiting
brotherly love, and this is masonry
and stands for the hOme.'

and an Introspection" was the sub
ject of the address delivered by Will
