Of her choice.
Whether. in the Sunday school, in
the ladies' societies, the prayer meet
ing, or the public service, like a true
soldier she was always found at her
post, save when disease became the
master and the slight frame was conn.,

And now this devoted wife, mother
and friend has gone on before. We

The loss Of this good woman to our

simple but sincere manner, therefore,
we desire to place upon u record in
permanent form these words so truly
indicative of her character and work:
"She died in the harness."
We want, also, to express to our
dear Brother Walters, and the beloved
son, Maurice, our sincere sympathy,

The Dawn of Christianity
As Described In
THE NEW TESTAMENT
Translated from the Original Greek.

| 81 But by what means he now
seeth, we know not; or who hath op-
ened his eyes, we know not. he is OF
age ask him: he shall speak for him
self.
%. These words spake his parents,
! because they feared the Jews: for
the Jews had agreed already, that ii
any man did confess that he was
| Christ, he should be put out of the
synagogue.
23 Therefore said his parents, He
is of age; ask him.
| "a. Then again called they the man
that was blind, and said unto him,
Give God the praise: we know that
this man is sinner.
%. He answered and said, Whether
he be a sinner or no, | know not: one
thing know, that, whereas | was
blind, now l see.
Is. Then said they to him again,
What did he to thee? how opened he
thine eyes?
II. He answered them, l have told
you already, and We Gid not hear:
wherefore would We hear it again?
will We also be his disciples?
20. Then they reviled him, and
said, Thou art his disciple; but we
are Moses disciples.
20. We know that God spake unto
Moses: as for this fellow, we know
not whence he is.
80. The man answered and salG
unto them, Why herein is marvel
lcus thing, that We know not from
whence he is. and yet he hath opened
mine eyes.
81 Now we know that God heareth
not sinners but if any man be
worshipper Of God, and doeth his
will, him he hcareth.
80. Since the world began was 1t
not heard that any man opened the
eyes OF one that was born blind
49, If this man were not of God,
he could do nothing.
a. They answered and said unto
him, Thou vast altogether born in
sins, and dost thou teach us? AnG
they cast him cut.
80. Jesus heard that they had
cast him out; and when he had found
him, he said unto him, Dost thou be-
lieve on the Son OF God?
SO. He answered and said, Who is
he, Lord, that | might believe on
him?
81. And Jesus said unto him, Thou
hast both seen him, and it is he that
talketh with thee.
49, And he said, Lord, l believe.
And he worshipped him.
80. And Jesus sad, For judgment
am come into this world, that they
which see not might see: and that
they which see might be made blind.
49, And sonie Of the Pharisees
which were with him heard these
words, and said unto him, Are we
blind also?
Al. Jesus said unto them, If ye
were blind, ye should have no sin:
but now we say, We see; therefore
your sin remaineth.

There is one objection worth con-

1t encourages too much the attitude
Of seeing other people do things.

watching other people achieve.

DINE BLUFF
- ROGRESS
ROsPERITY
FARM PRODUCTS FAIR.

An annual exhibit OF farm products
in Pine Bluff will do more to bring
about diversification than any other
one factor. It will induce some farm
ers to exert themselves to grow good
stuff; demonstrate to others that
these crops can be produced profitab-
ly and by the exchange of experiences
teach better farming. Also, it will
prove that this country will produce
almost anything that can be grown,
and that the farmer who grows his
cvn food, feed and enough pork, beef,
chickens and eggs to sell a little need
not worry about the price of cotton.
Two reasons for this: The farmer
will not be dependent on cotton, and
the fact that he is using some of his
land to produce his needs will natur-
ally reduce the cotton acreage and
increase the price of the staple. Pine
Bluff can hardly afford to be without
an annual fair.
The movement on foot to have an
exhibit of agricultural products this
year should be encouraged and sup
ported. 1t cannot be large, because
the time is insufficient But we can
make start. The fair at Shreve-
port was started on small scale,
and is now an institution for the en-.
tire state of Louisiana. The Dallas
fair had a small beginning. Now it is
enc of the biggest in the country.
Unless you are willing to admit
that Lcuisianians and Texans are the
superiors of Arkansas Jeffersonians
no reason can be urged why Pine
Bluff cannot build up Southeast Ar
kansas fair-an institution that will
pay big dividends in the increased
value of farm products, in local trade
in better farming.

5. AS long as | am in the world,

6. When he had thus spoken, he
spat on the ground, and made clay O.
the spittle, and he anointed the eyes
of the blind man with the clay,
Z. And said unto him, Go, wash ir
the pool of Sloan, (Which is by in
depreciation, Sent) He went his way
therefore, and washed, and came see
ing.
8. The neighbors therefore, and
they which before had seen him that
he was blind, said, Is not this he that
sat and begged?
8. Some said, This is he: others
said. He is like him: but he said,
am he.
10. Therefore said they unto him
How were thine eyes opened?
II. He answered and said, A man
that is called Jesus made clay, and
anointed mine eyes, and said unto me
Go to the pool of Sloan, and wasL:

when Jesus made the clay, and open

Is. Then again the Pharisees also
asked him how he had received his
sight. He said unto them, He put
clay upon mine eyes, and | washed,

Is. Therefore said some of the
Pharisees, This man is not of God,
because he keepeth not the sabbath
day. Others said, How can man
that is a sinner do such miracles
And there was division among them.
II. They say unto the blind man
again, What sayest. thou of him, that
he hath opened thine eyes? He said,
He is a prophet.
Is. Pa the Jews did not believe
concerning him, that he had been
blind, and received his. sight, until
they called the parents of him that
had received his sight.

Is this your son, who We say was born

PUBLICITY DID IT.

In the face of decreasing supply OF
meat animals in this country and a
still greater decrease in Europe, with
no great decrease in demand, the
price Of meat paid the producer has
decreased since the middle of August
when the nationwide agitation
about the high cost of meat started
The decline in price is regarded as a
reaction from the high prices that
prevailed on August 10, according tc
Washington dispatch.
What caused the reaction? Why
has the price of meat declined all
along the line since the middle Of
August? At this season of the year
the price of meat usually advances al
along the line. Was the reaction
caused by financial conditions? If not
what caused the decline?
| Even before the war started 1t was
predicted that beef cattle would be
fore spring sell at $12 hundred
pounds, and the price around the mid
die Of August actually did pass Sill
for a short time, but the agit1.ior
against the advance in the prize o.
meat was started and instead OF ris
ing to II cents a pound live weigh
the price of beef fell to less than
cents.
Publicity did it. The newspapers
all ovtr the country aired the sub
ject of the sharp advance in the prices
OF meat aid particularly in the pr'c'
| to the consumer as compared will
the price paid the producer. A boy
colt on beef was threatened ant
marketing associations were org ariz
ed in many of theSlarge cities. Public
| meetings were held and the feasra
author tiles undertook investiga ions
designed to show where he fault lay
Many cities undertook similar in est
igations and the fullest publicity was
given to all these activities.
| The result is shown in the cu'z@nt
prices for meat. The produce ias
suffered very little, but the cen
sumner has gained great dea.. Nc

know what to do.
