SOLDIER JUMPS
 OFF HIGH BRIDGE
PLUNGED INTO ouAcHlTA RIVER WHILE CROWD AT INTERVIEW STOOD AGHAsT.
Water Was Only About Four Feet Deep and All Expected to See Him Dashed to Pieces, But
 He Came Out All Right.

A. l.. LePine, a soldier of she Army and Navy Hospital, electrified an audience at RiNerview park Sunday afternoon when he jumped off the Smith Bridge, which stands about 4u feet from the water, and under which the Ouachita river is not more than four feet deep about this time.
 Instead of being dashed to pieces, as the spectators believed he would be, he turned quickly after striking the water, and came out spluttering and smiling.
 The feat was the result of dare made by some friends who stood with him on GIhe bridge. The audience ashore knew nothing Of the situation until there was a shout, and over the railing into the water dashed the form of the man.
 Suicide was the thought that oc- cured to all, but after the body struck the water and in a momen. more was lighted up and the man spluttered and swan calmly out the excitement was over.

the newspaper that gave the story
its first publication. ought 10 know
that the most eloquent minister who
ever lived in West Virginia, was born
and raised in the most isolated seciicr
Of tho stats. Yet can Il be poasblc
that he nev+r knew ,aught Of The ORR
gin of Christmas day? No, No. But
here is the story:
Living I'm the mountain wlidernc SIS
of soutts stefn Wess Virginia arc SOW
eral hundred mountaireers who know
nothing of Christmas, and are Az ig-
nofant as the bafbarians of tbs South
Sea Islands as TO why the day Is cpie-
brafed throughout the civilized world.
The forefathefs OF thase mourtain-
eers migrated to the wild section Of
West Virginia years ago ard their
children have sprung up almost ig-
norant of the outsids world, many
unable TO read and write, whila 9th
ems have never seen airships, auto
mobiles, railroad trains or even lock-
ed within the walls of our large cities.
That class of people as ignorant
as these mountalnads should fasidc
within state like West Virginia, is
beyond belief but these have bonn
the conditions found by the mission
aries of the various churches of tho
state who are now invading this re-
gion to preach to thess ignorant peo-
pie the word of God.
The Methodist Episcopal Church is
perhaps sondirg moie missionaries
into the mountain re2iors than any
Other church and the reports that
ha h>an turned into the district sup
erintandents by these missionaries
are very interestirg. The missionaries
during the winter months ride and
drive over the snow-covered mountain
ranges to bring words of cheer to the
poor mcun6ain, ar and family. With
their cabins erected miles away from
any hamlet the children of the noun
taineer rarely have the opportunity Of
going 10 school and live and die un-
able to read Line or write their own
name.
In his report this month which COW
erred his field in this secion, mis-
sionary wrote an interesting article
on these people whom he stated wore
anxious to Learn the workings of the
outside world, the story of which to
them sounded l1ie chapter from
Grimm's fairly tales. The good that
has been done in this region has been
remarkable and within few years
West Virginia will be lifted from the
state of barbarism and the anndver-
sary of the birth of Christ will be
known by all men. women and chill
dren that reside in the state.

Fiscal Courts shall have the right 10
make a levy of not exceeding forty
cents on the one hundred dollars
for the maintenance of the roads If
the applications for state aid exceed

funds are to be equalized by the
State Highway Commissioner. These
are the main points in the proposed

ton of time when the national gov
ernment will also furnish aid for
road building to the various states,
contingent upon the furnishing of a
certain amount by the states them

have always contended that the
national government could far
better afford to assist the
farmers throughout the country
in building permanent mecade-
mixed roads than in wasting mil
lions of dollars in building custom
houses at cross roads towns and
building locks and dams across little
rivulets to please some member of Con

his constituents that Through his IN
