Pleasant Hill and Ozark Circuit

Last Saturday and Sunday was my day at Pleasant Grove and to say that these services brought joy to the pastors heart would be only expressing It tamely. There was such splen- did interest and the people res bonded with such alacrity that it seemed like a band of true sol diers of our blessed Lord. At the close of the service Saturday night there were two who con- fessed faith in Christ and went from there rejoicing in a Saw ior's love. On Sunday morning the Sunday school under the efficient management of the superintendent, Bro. J. A. Floyd, was so well organized and busy that it reminded one of the activity of a bee hive. It was truly well-ordered and active bunch, God only knows what such a school will mean to the country.
 After the Sunday school all the school staying for church, and many more coming, The good choir were in their places and sang well; spiritual songs to the edification of the congrega- tion. 1 am glad to say that the pastor is delighted with so faith full and efficient a choir.
 This but indicates the interest throughout the circuit. The church and friends are rallying to the pastors call and the work of God with a beautiful activity. This makes US very hopeful and helps us to do our best. Nc preacher can do his best work ing with a cold and indifferent church. But your pastor is de lighted to be with such a people, and feels that he has the best circuit in the Fort Smith district.
 As some of our friends desire to know what the circuit is, we are glad to report, that there are five deeded Methodist churches, a parsonage in the town of Ozark, with no indebt edness on any/'of these, anC with a membership of 320.
 Yours for the Masters cause in the war with sin.
 J. l.. Shelby, Pastor.

The British and French on the
western front began new offensive
the morniug of July I, extending the
entire 90 miles OF the British line and
many miles OF the French line north
OF Verdun and along the Somme
river. The advance broke through
several lines OF German trenches, the
French pushing forward as far as six

midable resistance. Up III the 9th
the Anglo French forces claimed to
have taken i6, 900 prisoners aud about
