Half dozen lads intimat- ed to the Normal leader that they possessed pitching ability, and they will be given tryouts. No practice was held this afternoon, but daily sessions will be held beginning Mon- day. The ground is being scraped to- day and will be in excellent condition tomorrow.

[fRCfNlfNARY OF
 DEATH OF POET TO BE OBSERVED HERE
CONWAY SCHOOLS TO OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY OF SHAKE
 SPEARE'S DEATH.

Clifford Devereux and his company of p players will appear at Central College Tuesday and Wednesday, March 28 and 29, under the auspices of Central and Hendrix colleges, the State Normal and Conway high school, presenting two Shakespearean plays. This is the fourth season of the Devereux players and they have established themselves as a company of unusual merit, presenting the fin est type of plays. Each has had es- pecial experience in Shakespearean drama. The repertoire of the com pany includes Twelfth Night" 1.-The Comedy of Errors and "The Tanning of the Shrew," three of the most de- lightful of the famous poets come dies.
 The appearance of the Devereux players is part of the program adopted by the four local educational institutions for the observance of the tercentenary of Shakespeare's death, which occurred April 23, 1916. It was at first planned to have a page ant and perhaps other forms of civic celebration of the event, but later it was decided to present the two plays mentioned above. Further recogni- tion of the tercentenary will be given at commencement exercises, when each institution plans to have some program or part of program devot- ed to Shakespeare and his works.

RELATES MORE OF
 HEBREW HISTORY
REV. BURKE CULPfPPfR
PAYS TRIBUTE TO ANCIENT METHODS OF REARING CHILDREN.

Last night another great congrega- tion heard Burke Culpepper on Dan iel l:8-"But Daniel Purposeth in his Heart Again going back into the ancient Hebrew history he told the interesting story of Daniel, boy cap tive 16 years old. He was of royal blood-a thoroughbred. His mother and father had trained him right. The preacher declared that in those days fathers and mothers took better care of the boys than they do now Then the speaker launched into a most bitter denunciation of the "sim- ple-minded little pinhead of fellow" who would literally suck himself to death drawing on a cigarette. He styled him a hip brooches parody of real man." The preacher declared if the mothers and fathers of this country don't look after the boys bet ter we will quit the business of rais- ing men. If the parents will hold the children in the right path until they are l5 they will never leave it He said he was running his little home before the children arrived and intended to keep on doing so.
 Again the Jew was paid tribute He declared that the Jewish mothers and fathers took care of their boys You never saw drunken Jew, did you? You never saw one begging his bread, did you? And not one in ten will marry outside his race" The preacher then declared if he cant be a great preacher he did want to be a good one.
 Ut is great thing to have a moth CT who takes seriously the business of raising men," Boys, some day yoa will be called on to play the man.
 Don't whine. play it like thorough bred! Girls, you too must come to
 the parting of the way. Play the
 lady-play it like a queen"
 "One first class purpose is all you need to make man out of you," de-
 clared the preacher. Tt is a great compliment God has paid you in per hitting you to join his church" He told of what it meant to be a church member. Of what purpose it took to do the right. But declared if a man had the backbone he could do anything. Purpose made, purpose stayed, purpose paid" rang through the sermon. He declared that God let man find the sheep. He let a woman find the coin, but the prodigal son had to "come it alone" Then he paid glowing tribute to Billy Sun day and used him as an illustration of mighty purpose.
 Everybody got last nights sermon and it will stay with them, too. To- night he will preach another sermon filled with red hot burning words from his heart Don't fail to hear him tonight.
 The board of stewards will again meet for prayer in the church office. Tomorrow morning he will preach on the divinity of Christ. In the after noon at 8 o'clock there will be a cer- vice for men only. At night a ser- mon for everybody.

MRS. J. w. CONGER. Editor.


 ''ss'.3..st.'ss..s'sssss
 The Woman's Missionary Society of the Baptist church had another in- teresting monthly missionary meeting Monday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. w. B. Mills, with Mrs. Bren- nan as leader. Although the weath- CT was cold and disagreeable, quite a large number were in attendance. The subject for discussion was Latin America, which, as we know, em- braces the republics of South Amer ica, West Indies, Mexico and the Phil ippines. While we are thankful for the close relationship between the Americas politically, intellectually and socially, the religious conditions of these countries claim our special attention. It is the duty of our mis- sionary societies and of each of us individually to see that the gospel and it's teachings are observed by the educated leaders of Latin America, for it is through the leaders that we may hope to reach the masses. After the program social hour was en- joyed Mrs. Mills and her two daugh- after which several enjoyable musical numbers were rendered.
 Beginning Monday, March 6, our missionary society will observe the week of prayer and special mission study. We hope to have interesting programs each day and large at tendance is urged. The hour will be from 2 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, so as not to conflict with the revival services which are now being held at the Methodist church.
 The Womans Missionary Society of the M. E. church will postpone the meeting for next Monday, as the re- vival services are now being held at the regular hour, 3 o'clock. We will have our regular business meeting on March 13. At this meeting we will have the report of the delegate from the annual conference, which was held at Jonesboro.
 We are glad to give place to the re- vival which is now in progress, and earnestly trust that this will be a great revival of "old-time" religion in our church and town. Despite the unfavorable weather, Rev. Culpepper is preaching to large congregations. Let each one of us give prayerful consideration to our duty this week and next.

IRON JEWELRY NO NOVELTY
Patriotic PrussIsn Woman Wore Such
Ornaments With Pride More
Than q Century Ago.

Many months ago, almost from the
beginning Of the war, We we're told
that German women, following the ex-
ample Of their great-grandmothers,
voluntarily gave up their gold rings,
~necklets. earrings. bracelets and orna-
ments Of every description, to be
made or coined into money for tine
national need.
Whatever truth there may be in this
story. there IL no doubt that many
German women have been presented
by the government with iron rings to
replace the gold ones they have parted
with.
But that happened q century ago.
Then Prussia. crushed by Napoleon,
n bankrupt. was In dire need Of
money, and the Prussian women gave
rp all their jewels and ornaments to
help cope with the prevailing poverty.
And out Of this sacrifice . new indus
try arose.
This was nothing less than the man.
ufacture Of cast-iron jewelry to replace
the gold and silver ornaments which
the great ladies Of the kingdom had
given up. At frst sight no material
would seem less promising as q sub
stitute for the precious metals than
iron. 1t was entirely owing to the
wonderful craftsmanship of the iron
workers that the results were 80 ex-
traordinary.

tinguishing mark OF such jeweiry, and

ments, nov in the possession of q To-
ronto (Canada) jeweler. is AZ rigid
and firm as on the day 1t was made.
This particular set. comprising q pair
of earrings, necklet, locket and brace
let's. has not been looked after until
lately.
The ornaments have q wonderfully
fragile appearance, due entirely to
the exquisite workmanship. Their
weight, too, is astonishingly small, the
lightness of every article being quite
a feature of the set.

RUSSIANS FOND or ANIMALS
All Glasses Of the People Teach Chill
dren to Be Kind to All Species
Of Beasts.

No one can be In Russia for any
length of time without noticing the
kindness that the people show to an
lmals, writes Curtis Guild In the
Youths Companion.
The beautiful Russian folktales,
which are Just beginning to be trans
lated into English. teach children to
be kind to all animals. The very
name of the most terrible animal In
Europe, the bear, shows the sympa-
thetic, affectionate attitude of the Rus
sian toward animals. In every other
European language with which I am
familiar the name of the bear, with the
r. rolled as II is universally except
in English. suggests a fierce, growing
wild beast. In Italian 1t 10 orso; In
French. ours; In German. baer; In
Scandinavian. bjorn. But the Russi-
ans think of the bear In a friendly.
rather jocular way, and call him
miedvied-"the fellow who likes
honey" AS a matter Of fact, however.
the peasants seldom use that word.
They call the bear mishka, which
means Little Michael, or Micky.
Because the Russian is kind to ami
mails and to his fellow man you must
not think that he is q coward. The
Russian 10. l think, the only hunter
who kills the biggest bears single
handed with a spear; and 30 we find
q naturally gentle race displaying In
war the most dauntless bravery, not
only In the excitement Of O bayonet
charge, but In the stubborn endurance
of defense.
The Russian Is very fond of pets.
I have een that embodiment of un-
bending and wooden faced dignity, the
conventional butler, forgetting his thin
silk stockings and pumps. dash out In
to the snow when the mercury was
far below zero, to rescue a starving
kitten, which he thenceforth kept in
his W room. I have never seen q
Russian boy throw a stone at a dog
or a cat. Russian boys do not catapult
pigeons. One Of the maids In the
American embassy rescued a wounded
pigeon. set its broken leg and tended
1t carefully in secret. When her act
of kindness was discovered, she burst
into sobs. because she was afraid that
she would not be permitted to keep
the bird.
