Instead of commencing on Thursday night as was previously announced, the meeting will commence on next Sunday morning The tent will be pitched on Saturday and everything gotten ready for one Of the greatest religious cam paigns ever waged in Dermott
 Interest in the meeting is steadily growing and all the churches and Christians are getting closer together with determination to put the devil and sin to flight and put our old town in her rghtful place as the best town in southeast Arkansas We excel Tn everything else, and why not in religion and civic righteousness? We can If We will. so lets get busy in the Lords service and everybody fall in line and clean up things.
 There were seventeen men who went from Dcrmott to Mctiehee last Sunday afternoon in autos to the big meeting for men at the revival meeting tent, and such splendid showing dld they make that the leader of the meeting asked the Dermott men to stand and when they did the McGehee men showed then appreciation for the visitors with vigorous hand clasp.

SHORTAGE IN PAPER
COULD Be RELIEVED
Organization Needed in ColIeC-
ton of Raw Materials, How
ever, 1t Is Pointed Out.

Organization is needed to collect the
papers and rags necessary to relieve
the present prices in the shortage of
raw material for the manufacture of
paper. Secretary Rcdfield said today.
IIc said if individuals saved their own
papers and sold them in small lots it
is not likely they would get large
prices for them and would become dis
couraged.
one million posters calling attention
to the serious shortage of raw ma
terals now arc being sent broadcast
over the country to chambers of COM
merce and other civic organizations, S
well as to postmasters. with the re-
quest that they be posted in conspic-
uous places. The paper manufacture
crs themselves have been called upon
by Secretary Redfield to help in the
campaign to relieve them. Bundles of
the circulars have been sent to them
for distribution.

School Children Could Aid.

If the churches or the children in
the public schools" said Mr.. Overton,
could be induced to take the matter
UP Systematically. something might be
accomplished. Anybody handy with
tools could build box in which the
material could be boX-baled. and by
means of the crudest kind of sorting
could put news and cheap papers in
one bale, magazines, books, etc, in d
separate bale, and mixed rags in Il
third. They would then be in Il posi-
ton to ship to the nearest sorter of
rags and paper stock. II. however,
they do not systematic their work
and attempted to sell TO the small col
]ector" who goes about with wagon
and a string of bells. the chances are
that. irrespective of the high prices the
mills are paying today. the junk man

prices that the housewife will become

Churches Could Get Revenue.

1t was suggested this morning that
churches and various philanthropic Or
ganizations could add to their source
of revenue by collecting old papers and
rags and selling them to the paper
houses.
Some idea of just Wat the paper
manufacturers need rIas given i'll d
letter this mo-~.ng from Frank G..
Overton, paper manufacturer. IN
which was outlined the material want
ell. as follows
Waste materials, such as old silk
garments; cast-off furs, mating, oil
cloth and trash of that description are
useless. excepting i'll so far as the
larger pieces might be suitable for bale
covering. but practically all other
grades of rags and waste papers have
a value. 1t would seem as though 1T
would be worth while for the individ-
ual householder to save rags and waste
papers. provided each locality is willing
to take the trouble to combine coilec-
tons and get in communication with
some responsible rag merchant. who
is willing to pay fair value for small
lots. consisting of one or more bales.

TOOK HER FATHER To
GIVE HIM LIBERTY

ATLANTA. Ca, Nov. 3.-Frequent
discoveries of dynamite placed on
Atlanta street car tracks, supposedly
by persons in sympathy with the strik-
ing conductors and motormen, have
made it dangerous for young men to
stay out too late in the evening, espec-
tally if they have occasion to walk
along the car tracks when returning
home.
A young Albanian who is member
of a union and who is a very quiet and
mild-mannered individual, who never
harmed a living thing in his life, went
to call on his girl and staid until his
last car had left, which made it nee
essary for him to go home on foot.
AS he lives in suburb where the
streets and sidewalks are not so good
as they are in the city, the young man
is in the habit of walking on an inter
urban trolley car track when he has
occasion to make these hiking journ-
eys, and on the night in question it SO
happened that stick of dynamite had
been found on this very track.
1t was quite natural, therefore, that
guards patrolling the track should ar
rest the young union man when they
found him strolling along the track
about l O'Clock a. m. and he had the
deuce of time to prove an alibi. 1t
was finally necessary for him to sum
mon his sweetheart's father to the
Tower, where he was held on suspi-
cion, to establish the fact that he had
spent the evening in her company, and
had not been engaged in any dynamit-
ing enterprises.
