HAVE REACHED FLORIDA.
William Marland and Alanson CoIvin
Have Had Some Odd Experiences.

Cards were received here Monday,
dated at Laudervil1e, Fla, stating
that William Marland and Alanson
Colvin, local members of a motor
cycle party that left here three weeks
ago, have reached that place after
many and varied experiences. They
report all we'll with them. The young
men found some mighty poor high
ways in the state of Virginia and 9TH
er places along the route, but when
they became stalled in mud up to the
cyclinders on their machines they
simply smiled and dug the cycles out.
They have learned many things on
their southern trip and among others
that all the world is not fused up
over current events, all-important and
history making as they may be. For
instance they found a man in Vir
ginia who had heard" that there was
a war in Europe and was anxious to
find out who was mixed up in it and
what the fighting was all about. They
had intended to ask this backwoods-
man as to the result of the Yale Har-
ward football game, a matter in which
they were interested, but called it off
after listening to the mans war
queries. Incidentally another deniz-
from them, after he learned what state
they were from, if Connecticut is in
the United States Sfact. fishy as it
may seem!
The young men who are motorcycling
across the country to California may
be away for a year or more. They
have camping equipment and are we'll
prepared to stand year in seeing the
country. They expect by stopping
from time to time as their needs may
require, to earn enough money to meet
their expenses doing any and all hon
orable work that may be offered them.
Crowds Witness The Birth of a Ma
ton.
The long heralded and much talked
Of Birth of A Nation pictures were
shown for the first time here at the
Orpheum theater Monday matinee and
night. Crowded houses were present
for both shows and while all who came
found comforta BILE seats from which to
view the spectacle the attendance was
surprisingly large and was representa-
tive Of all the places in this vicinity
There were numerous motor parties
here from surrounding towns for both
afternoon and evening shows
The pictures were given with all of
the completeness of detail that has
marked their display in the larger
cities. An augmented orchestra
played the special music and there was
behind the scenes assistants engaged
| in adding the special features that go
with the production.

sELEcTMEN VS.. TREASURER.
Claims Set Forth in Briefs Filed in
Case Which Has Caused Two Fac
tons in Brooklyn.

Briefs in the mandamus proceed
tngs instituted to require the treas
urer of the town of Brooklyn, George
w. Eastmant, to deposit town funds
of Brooklyn have been filed with Judge
Gardiner Greene of the superior cocrt,
who has the matter before him.
In the brief filed by Judge A. G.
Bill, representing Mr.. Eastment, it is
set forth that the defendants claims
are fully set forth in his motion to
quash. The defendant claims that
all acts of the treasurer in regard to
deposfting funds of the town, deposit
ing the sinking fund and Borrowing
money were wholly within the exer-
else of his judgment and discretion
and that the selectmen had no author
ity of control over the same or any
power of authority to pass such votes
as are elsewhere referred to in the
brief.
The defendant further claims that
the matter in reference to the state
ment by employer following the ap-
plication upon which the bond of the
treasurer was issued is wholly imma-
terial and irrelevant Were it other
wise, the brief continues, the first Sc
lectman or board Of selectmen had no
authority whatever to state that the
Danielson Trust company would be the
depository of the town funds without
urer, which they did not have, and, in
fact, the treasurer had no knowledge
that such a statement had been made.
The defendant claims that he has
substantially compiled with the vote
requiring that the sinking fund Of the
town be invested by the treasurer but
by and with the advice and consent Of
the selectmen in some proper savings
bank or some other institution or Sc
curity designated by law for the in
vastment of the fund; that under and
by virtue of an act of the legislature
of 1913, the savings department Of the
Windham County National bank be-
came an Institution designated by law
for the investment of such fund
that the vote as passed by the town
left it to the discretion Of the town
treasurer and selectmen as to where
this fund should be deposited. If they
could not agree as to the depository
of the Same, a deadlock resulted and
the treasurer was bound to exercise
his Judgment in depositing the same.
It is admitted that the selectmen in

FORGET AND GET BUSY.

With the liquor question out of the way, the general assembly can now get down to business. Also, now that Pros and Antis Know exactly what Is to happen all can get to work in stead of delaying, waiting to see what is to be done about the saloons.
 Uncertainty is an obstacle to in dustry. Just as soon as people know what to expect, they plan ac- cordingly. Now that it is definitely known that saloons are not to exist after this year, there is no reason for delaying preparations to make the most of the great opportunities Ar kansas offers to the thrifty and ener- getic for successful exploitation of those characteristics.
 Forget the war and "booze" and get busy to make Pine Bluff, Jeffer- son county and Arkansas greater producers and ourselves richer.

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

good tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:
 '. Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affllc- tion and distress by your faith:
 8. For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.
 9. For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes be- fore our God;
 10. Night and day praying exceed ingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lack ing in your faith?
 T. Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you. 12. And the Lord make you to 1n- crease and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: 13. To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
