In the words of the scared negro, "We believe the scripture is being filled full."-Ingram Correspondent of the Pocahontas Star Herald.
 One more week and the villification speeches of the candidates will end till the next campaign. When Arkan- sas statutes contain laws prohibiting personal attacks on the private life and character of public men or poli- ticians and constitute the offense as a felony all this nauseating blasphemy and campaign lies will be stopped and the state will be relieved of disgrace full episodes.-Arkansas Herald.

hour is the call OF Christs love for IA
whole church to save the whole world.
The method IL as simple as 1t is most
Christian. II is for each communion TO
think and to act In terms OF the whole.
In and through our relation to the
whole church may we rightly and finally
determine our relation to one another.
II Is negative only in so far as II
protests against the fact of continued
schism.

conferences and the Fundamental prob
lens of unity in them are related 10
