The First Methodist Church has
had under consideration for several
months the building of an annex to
their Sunday school room. As the Sun
day school has increased in attendance
so largely, it is difficult to hear the
classes, and the new building is imper-
alive. The contemplated improvements
will cost some five thousand dollars or
more. Mry-FrAs~Graml and Mn. "
LSDanielf have had the matter before
the Official members, and it has been
discussed frequently. Action will prob
ably be had soon.

Good Out of Evil

When Xerxes invaded Europe
and came within an ace of an
mcknight to Persia and making
Orientals of all of us-he brought
alfalfa along for fodder for his
horses.
Xerxes was beaten back by
the Greeks. His feet was sunk,
the bridge he threw across the
Hellespont was disastrously
wrecked, his cohorts were turned
back in slaughter by the Spar
tans and Lacedem0nianS, and
Europe was saved. 1t was awful
war, and it left Greece pros
trated.
But the alfalfa seed remained,
and did more good than all
Xerxes' armies did of harm.
We of America are now getting
rich through Xerxes' horse feed.
All the states west of the Mis-
sissippi, and much of those east
of that river, are trusting to
alfalfa to make them rich, better
land, happier homes than could
possibly be the case if Xerxes
had not so many centuries ago
swept down on the West like a
cloud of evil.
Over u years ago there was a
great drOuth through North
Louisiana and crops were COM
pletely destroyed. Before an
other crop could be produced
mortgages plastered the hill
lands of North Louisiana like a
blanket. 1t took several years
for the hill farmer to recover
from the disaster, but he never
quite forgot the lesson of that
dr0uth.
The other day Bienville far
mer took to the Office of the Ar
Cadia Argus some of the corn
which he raised the year of the
great drouth-mere nubblns
which had remained in his corn
crib all these years. Since that
time he had produced on his own
land all the corn he needed and
he never quite permitted his
supply to become exhausted.
There was no occasion for him to
use the nubbinS. He has been
prepared for another drouth
every year since 1895. And this
is the lesson that we all need to
learn-tO be ready for the inevi,
table rainy day.
The Times does not believe
that the boil WeeVil is a blessing
any more than the invasion of
Europe by Xerxes was a bless.

good will result from the ravages
of the weevils just as good re-
suited from the drouth of II
years ago. If the Weevil, along
with the harm that it does, shall
