A CALL TO PRAYER
ear Women Of the Churches:

Dear Women of the Churches:
Baptists throughout the State ar,
turning their thoughts and hearts {,
the annual meeting Of the Woman.
Convention which conveues in st. Al
bans, August 1916, 1919. A splendid
program has been prepared for thi.
meeting, splendid in every department
but our convention will not be a sue.
cess without an attendance. This at,
tendance must depend largely on the
activity and interest shown by pas
tors and officers of local missionary
societies in selecting delegates.
While many are responding to our
almost frantic. appeals for $4,000. 90,
we cannot as yet tell how the year
will end. We are, therefore, all the
more DESTROYS that the ST. Adams
meeting should be an epoch-making
event in the great and glorious work
the Savior has committed to the Chris
tian women of our denomination. !
AT no time in the history Of our
convention, have We faced q more i'm
perative need Of divine guidance than
we recognize III this hour of hope and
expectation, when we are uniting
our energies to make the years work
success. We are most grateful to
God for the privilege of helping 20
extend the kingdom and the outlook
which demands of us a far larger
measure of service. Believing unre-
servedly the word of God, Call upon
me, and l will answer thee and show
thee great and mighty things which
thou knowest not we feel the need
of something far deeper than mere
organization. We need a deeper
sense of responsibility to almighty
God for the trust he has committed to
us. Therefore, on July %, 1912, let
us unite in a week of courageous, def
mite, believing prayer. Let US pray
daily that in every step we may be
guided by His spirit and that we may
have faith, patience, perseverance,
wisdom, harmony of purpose, enlarge
ment of vision and new standard Of
conservation.
Yours in His name,
MRS. Nj. A. w. THOMPSON,
President
Hilltop, w. Va.

IMMENSE STRAWBERRY CROP
Eight Thousand Refrigerator Cars Needed to Handle Ozark District
 Truck Crops.

Springfield, Mo-, July 2.-Having just finished marketing a S1.000,00O straw berry crop, the Ozark district is now preparing for the picking, packing and shipment of the greatest fruit and vegetable crop in its history, one that will bring several more million dol lars into the pockets of the gardeners and fruit growers of this district.
 Bumper crops all along the line will be the rule this year. Starting with probably the greatest strawberry crop in it's history, the district will market other small bush fruits. early corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes and the like, switch to pink and golden peaches and wind up with apple and grape crops which will be not only the largest but probably the finest the district ever has grown.
 The shipments of these big crops will require no less than 5000 refrig- orator cars, and the railroads which handle the traffic of the district will be taxed to their capacity to keep the cars moving. Tomatoes and other vegetables will begin to move in large quantities next week.

 MT. Clark has taken the reins him. self. He is rallying his followers and urging no concession. He believes he will be nominated, but if not, he means that Wilson. whose strength he regards as of Bryan's creation, shall not be chosen. If Wilson rises above majority, his nomination will be held up by the Clark forces, just as Clark's was checked by the Wilson Underwood combination.

BALTIMORE CONVENTION

Delegates returning from the great convention at Baltimore are enthusiastic over the' pros pect of victory in November. With the Republican party ire. trievably split and a strong man leading the reunited Democratic hosts on one of the most progres. sive platforms ever adopted in the United States, they cannot see a possibility of defeat.
 On the other hand, the dele gates returning from Chicago are not enthusiastic over the pros poets of a Taft victory in Nov ember, in fact, they cannot some how get beyond the Taft victory at Chicago, irrespective of the means whereby it was accom- plished. The steam roller crowd, of which the Arkansas delegat- ion was component factor, was more concerned in the defeat of Roosevelt than in the victory of the Republican party.
 The steam roller" delegates who were persistent and consis- tent Roosevelt boosters, declare themselves we'll pleased with the results, for they are more con cerned with the success of Roosevelt principles than they are with the supremacy of the boss'riden and venal organiza, ton composing the Republican party. Messrs Holt, Cochran, Fowler, Conner, Patrick, Bedding and others who have been pro- mlnent in the Progressive move declare themselves still with Roosevelt in anything he wants. It Is probable that they will issue statement this week, defining thelr position and intentions. lhey have no expectation of withdrawing the ticket headed oy Sol. A. s. Fowler, but will run It through, split the already
 small vote of the Republicans, and give Joe Robinson probably the heaviest plurality ever re- celved by an Arkansas governor.
 Great things are expected of Uovernor Robinson. His ability as a leader was demonstrated at baltimore, where he won national Ienown as the floor leader of the 0hamp Clark forces. The Ark ahsas delegation, although per- sonally holding different views on some subjects, held together solidly, a fact due as much to Joe Robinson's masterly leader ship as to the state convention instructions. When the Demo. cfats win In November, it is free y predicted that Arkansas will not be neglected in the distri. button of honors.

BRYAN REFUSES TO EXTRACT
Says Mssourian's Mistake Was in Not Refusing Support of New York Delegation--Dscussio
 WaxeS Warm.

Baltimore, June 2.-William Jen- nings Bryan has not retracted his as sertions concerning Champ Clark, neither has he attempted to present proof of them. Clark will fight to the end for the nomination for president.
 This is the situation in the feud which has arisen from the Nebras- kan's charge on the floor of the con- vention that the speaker had formed what virtually was an alliance with Tammany, and Clark's heated demand in hurried trip here from Washing ton Saturday night that the asser- tion be withdrawn or evidence pro- duced to support it.
 Instead of acceding to either de- mand Bryan gave to the press state ment, declaring that In his opinion the speaker is right at heart, but has been misled" and charging him, not with any wrongful act. but with failing to act to prevent what Bry- an regards as the wrongful acts of Clark's managers and lieutenants.

Prove or retract, was the challenge hurled at William Jennings Bryan by Champ Clark, speaker of the house.
 The speaker thus answers the charge made by Bryan on the floor of the Democratic national convention that Clarks candidacy for the presi- dency is corruptly allied with Tam many and with a Morgan -Ryan-Bel- mont financial combination.
 In statement prepared by Speaker Clark in the Clark headquarters at the Emerson hotel in Baltimore, the Missourian thus phrased his chal- lenge:
 "In the national convention an out rageous aspersion was cast upon me and through me upon the Democratic party, by one who of all men who ought to be the last to besmirch or betray his party. So far as am per sonally concerned, it is enough to say that the charge which reflects upon my personal or party integrity is ut terly and absolutely false.
 Traitor to Democracy.
 "I might afford to forget myself, but am by the choice of the Demo- cratic majority of the house of repre- sentatives the ranking official Dem- ocrat in national public life. can not be false or corrupt without re- fecting in the most serious way. Any man who would enter into an alliance with any selfish interest or privileged class of this country to gain the nomi- nation for the presidency is unworthy of the presidency and of the leader ship of the house.
 If I have not entered into such an alliance, then the Democrat, however distinguished, who wantonly charges me with this act, plays traitor to the Democratic party and to his professed friendship TOT me. I am not here to plead for a nomination or to attempt
