Pennington Contractor Gets
JOb-WOrk Begins At

Two Towers In Front To Be
Architectural Features of
EGifice.

! The contract has been closed for
the construction of new Catholic
church at Oran, Mo-, to cost 100000,
which will be without peer among
church edifices in that part Of South
east Missouri.
/ The church will be known as Guar
dian Angel church and the erection OF
which is largely due to the efforts of
Father Helmbacher, who is pastor of
The parish at Or9n. 1t is largely due
to his efforts in collecting funds for
the structure that it will be erected
at this time.
! The contract was awarded to the
Mccarthy Construction Company of
Pennington, of which Timothy Ne
Cai'thy is the leading member. The
construction firm two years ago built
me new court house at Benton and a
year ago erected the new high school
building at Poplar Bluff.
They have had considerable cxpcr-
fence in putting up church structure,
and according to the plans and speci-
iications for the Guardian Angel struc-
ture, it will be very elaborate when
completed. Ii will require several
months to complete the Job.
The church building will be of brick
with white stone trimmings. The site
is on 4 large lot on corner in Oran
and 4 large lawn will be allowed Oh
all sides OF the structure.
1t will be two stories in height and
Oh the two corners in the front of the
building there will be square towers,
one of which Will be finished off to
cupalo scvera! feet higher than the
roof Of the main building.
In the roar will be vestry and study
rooms with private entrance, and
the main entrance 10 the building will
be in the center at the front and will
be through Il large arched doorway.
There likewise will be an entry under
the larger of the two towers or
turrets.
A series Of large stained glass Win
dows in two rows on either side Of the
building mas been arranged and on the
interior the decorations will be sump-
tuous. TIE altar will be magnificent
and the pews that will be installed
will be of very artistic design.

DRAINAGE DISTRICT
PLANS EXTENSION
Engineers Plan Reclamation of
$4,000 Acres In Bollinger
and StOddard.

William \. O'Bricn, chief engineer
OF the Little River Drainage District,
will present to the governing board of
the dist ict, at its next meeting, COM
plete plans for the reclamation Of
So, 900 acres Of land in BoIlinger and
Stoddard counties, which have been
included in the district.
Tentative plans for the reclamation
Of the land, which is known by the
drainage engineers as = western eX-
tension" have been approved by the
board AT its meeting yesterday. As
soon as the final draft OF the plans
is filed with the board. the reclama-
ton work thorc will be started.
The land was included in the district
because it was found that the acreage
would be benefited by the plan for
drainage through the diversion of
Castor river.
The governing board opened its
regular meeting Monday and on the
first day passed all routine business.

by the restlcssness among the Irish.
'The present policy of cndeavoring
to keep all trouble at d minimum is
sound: but in the case Of the volte-
face of Washington which is above in
dictated as possibility, it would,
repeat, doubtless become desirable 10
throw the sword into the scale, and to
trust to reap our advantage later.
This must in any event be arranged
for as soon as possible after the war;
for otherwise the balance Of wealth
must become intolerable. Since repu-
diatiOn must come, it had better come
all round; we can then reconstruct
civilization on fair basis. Unless
America is completely disintegrated
Europe must lie at her mercy for cen
turtles to come. 1t is evident that we
may rely upon the cooperation Of
Japan in this task. =
But by adroity fomenting the Gle
mcnts of race hatred in America. the
continent may yet be reduced to chaos
without our rislsing a military eXpedi-
ton other than one Of occupation and
administration. President Wilson's
great speech in Congress, even more
than ali the efforts Of our press, has
sown the dragons teeth, in my humble
opinion, beyond the power of any man
to pluck up, and We have merely to
await the due season for the crop Of
armed men to rise up and Stay each
other.

The Diplomatic Situation.

Feeling in this country is very
strongly sympathetic with France; to
abandon her would unite American
sentiment against England as nothing
else could do. On the other hand,
there is practically no pro-RusSian
feeling; an understanding between
France, Germany and ourselves as
against Russia would be popular, as
tending to relieve the tension, and do
away with the deadlock. This would
be signally the case if it We're con-
ccrted that after the fall of Russia,
the next task were to be the humilia-
ton Of Japan. Such an arrangement
need not, and should not, prove in
compatible with the design upon
America itself indicated above. Ger
many may be offered South America
as compensation for acceding in full
to such desires as France might cX-
press in reference 10 the terms of
peace.
