Mrs. w. A. Steele, Makes a Trip To Beech Grove In Interest of
 Missionary Society.

Mrs. w. A. Steele. Secretary of the Womans Missionary Soci- ety, of the Methodist Church, Ft. Smith district, came down from Van Buren Tuesday the 14th, and made the trip to Beech Grove going north through the sleet and cold, to visit the Womans Missionary Society of that neigh borhood. The trip had been planned some time ago, but she was prevented from going, and when the arrangements for this trip were made no one thought of a blizzard such as she had to face going north sixteen miles in an open wagon. This shows the heroic spirit Mrs. Steele posses ses in this great work, and other work that she undertakes for the Master. This was hard trip for the strongest who are accus- toned to exposure and hardships now this is what she says: l feel well repaid for my trip to Beech Grove, 1 found such good people and they were so kind to me, that is a great work they are doing under the leadership of Rev H. M. Lewis.

Mir. Hansell was persuaded to sell his favorite bird dog Jake" for the pitiful sum of twenty five dollars to T. H. R. Johnson of Alma. Mir. Johnson is a lover of dogs and keeps pack of hounds on his plantation below Alma, and m order to treat Jake fair he gave a half interest of him to Ernest McGehee, who gave him the klndest treatment but the pointer was not used to being chained and it went hard with him. for in Ozark he and King" are at home at most places they go. By some means he slipped his collar and got loose, and was only two hours in getting back to Ozark, a distance of 24 miles by rail. It is probable that he came the wagon road which is several miles farhter. Mir. Han sell says he does not know wheth- CT he will return the twenty-five dollars and keep the dog, or re- turn the dog, -ah we'll Mrs. Hansell says: ''I suppose we will keep him. "
