REV. JAMES THOMAS
 MAY COME HERE
Pastor of TeXarkana Church May B( Assigned To First Methodist Church Here During Con.
 ference.

There is a likelihood of Rev. James Thomas, pastor of the First Methodist church laE Texarkanas being asx signed to the First Methodist church in Pine Bluff at the coming confer- ence to be held in this city. At least this is the belief at Texarkana, where Rev. Thomas enjoys gres k popularity and where he has served the Methodists for several years. The Texarkana Texarkanian sin com menting on the rumored transfer of Rev. Thomas to Pine Bluff or Little Rock says:
 Naturally. his congregation and friends are interested in his future field of labor. That cannot now be determined, as the assignment rests with the bishop at the annual confer ence which will convene in Pine Bluff November 18th. Many churches want him, but it is expected that he will go either to First church, Pine Bluff, or Winfield Memorial, Little Rock"

1T PAYS IN Thu END.

This thing we're all working for,
planning for and thinking for is up
stream, not down.
OF course we're tired, discouraged
and contrary minded. but they are
the current which takes us down
stream easily and makes the going
up hard.
Life and its achievements are
made up Of a constant fight against
this current.
And often as We get well under
way upward we're apt to get bump
ed by the fellow coming down.
For awhile he carries us with him.
then We realize we're going the
wrong way and strike out again.
This is the battle of progress.
It's hard work.
Nothing but 1t.
But IL pays in the end-big.

Easton, Penn, Jan. 1S.-A case
said by physicians to be the first
in medical science was discovered
here yesterday by DR.. James A.
Morgenstern. when he was called
to the residence of Berton Perkins
to attend one of the children who
was suffering from chickenpox.
The case was an unusually severe
one and the physician made mi
mute examination. When he placed
his hand on the right side of the
child's chest he was amazed to find
heart beating there. and mo-
ment later was astonished to find
another heart on the left side.
II led him to request Mrs. Per-
kins to allow an, examination of
herself and the other children, and
the physician founda that not only
the child. but the mother and two
other children in the family each
had two hearts.
To-day, accompanied by several
of the leading physicians of the city,
another, visit was paid to the house.

under the Jaw because she attempted
TO separate him from his milk bottle
When five weeks old he rushed from
the house at the sight of negro who
was raking leaves In the front yard
of his home and beat the African over
the head with his own rake
These incidents convinced Mctar-
lands parents that they had a coming
champion IN their midst, and Backey
was put into training, his crib being
fitted out with a punching bag and
pulley weights
Realizing that one Of the greatest
needs of a fistic champion was the
ability to- write challenges to other
champions, Mcfarland was sent as soon
as he arrived at the proper age to St

and the boss of the shop decided that
IL he wanted TO manufacture boilers ne
would have to dispense with both the
child African and young Mcfarland,
which he then and there did.
Mcfarland had met with so much dlt-

understandable pulp that he hunted up

interval between rounds, however, one
of the attendants IN Mct arlanq cor

ponent was none other than Booker 7.

Accordingly Mcfarland sailed out in the
second round like a Kansas cyclone and
not only forced his rival through the
ropes but chased him out of the barn
and 10 blocks down the street.
