WHY NOT?

Tucumcari is railroad town with
much work on Sunday. Many work
men expect their Sunday dinner as
promptly at twelve o'clock as upon
week day. This makes il quite diff
cult for some of the good women who
desire TO do so, to attend divine wor-
ship. Why should not the church adopt
"A new time for beginning the morning
service. The Christian church desires
TO dismiss before twelve o'clock-from
80 10 ll.Ab-so will have a COM
bned service next Lords Dag morn
ing and until further notice. We de-
sire TO accommodate the greatest num-
ber and believe it can be thus done.
Our Bible school and preaching SER
vices will be combined To be on time
be there at 9:I5. Should we find less
people suited under the new system
we shall change back.
The morning subject Is, First
Things First" will a Clear Con-
science Guarantee Salvation" will be
discussed in the evening. Again last
Lords Day evening our hearts were
made to rejoice when "A mother and
daughter made the good confession
May this occur often.

ONE RAY OF HOPE
Rock Island viii Receive 1000
New Cars-But
Relief i'm Kansas Is Uncertain
Officials Are Guessing.

Is relief for the freight car shortage
in Kansas in sight for the Rock Is
land? Topeka officials of the road
look at the situation from various
angles. The news that the Rock
Island had been authorized to pur-
chase 1000 box cars, was one of the
most interesting topics at the station
today.
Estimates on the length of time
which would elapse before the deliv-
cry of the cars could commence, va
ried widely, tho it was stated that the
local offices had no official informa-
ton on the subject, and probab bly,
would not have till it is time for the
delivery of the>new cars to begin.
In the division freight headquarters,
it was said that delivery would hardly
start within the next six months, en-
tirely too late to assist in the present
congestion. Another official was more
optimistic, believing that the new cars
would begin to arrive in the course of
very few weeks. In the division
headquarters it was pointed out that
the factories which will build the cars
are now behind with their orders, and
that the Rock Islands order may be
late in getting out.
That this division will receive its
share of the cars when they arrive,
seems certain. The need here, on ac-
count of the crops which are waiting
to be moved, is most urgent.
IF the cars were to be delivered
now, or even in a few weeks, as they
probably won't be- said one official,
kansas would get at least 80 per cent
of them"

LOVES CAPTIVE
Prima Donna Unable to Get
Passport to q. S.
Had Returned to Austria to See
Lover; Loses $4,000.

Berlin, Nov. 15.-Emmy Destin, the
Bohemian prima donna of the Metro
politan Opera company of New YORK,
and Dim Gilly, French sergeant of
Zouaves. former Metropolitan bari
tone and sweetheart of Madame DeS-
tin, are understood to be detained on
Madame Destin's estate near Prague.
Attempts to obtain passports for
Madame Destin to return to America
and fill her 1916-17 opera contracts
have been unavailing, and 1t is not
believed probable she will be able to
get back. Her sympathy with the
Bohemian nationalists may have some
thing to do with it.
Her Lover a Prisoner, Too.
New York, Nov. 15.-When the
Metropolitan opera management re-
ceived it's first direct word it indicated
Madame Destin certainly will not be
permitted to return to this country.
It announced that all plans for
Madame Destin to take part in the
opera season will be abandoned and
the program rearranged accordingly.
The Metropolitan management is
convinced that her love for the French
sergeant of Zouaves and former Metro
politan opera baritone, Dim Gi1ly, has
virtually made a prisoner of the b.
hemian prima donna on her estate
near Prague.
Returned Against Advice.
Against the advice and pleadings of
her operate associates in New York,
Madame Destin insisted on returning
to Austria after her last season in New
York.
The attraction was not her relatives
or estate, it is said nor even what she
may have thought she might do for
the cause of the Bohemian national
lists, but just Dim Gilly. Tho one of
the myriad quirks of war, Gilly, a
Frenchman born and a French army
officer, was detained by the central
powers when found on the Destin es-
tate at the opening of the war and
permitted to remain there in compare
tive freedom.
The first and second seasons
Madame Destin returned to the United
States, leaving Gilly at Prague during
her opera season. Madame Destin in
sisted on going back, knowing there
was a strong possibility of her being
and SIS, 600 in opera and concert CON
tracts thereby.
