Tuesday securing this part of the
country for Glen Johnson, a negro
from Wilmot who is wanted for an
alleged attack upon Sadie Holt, the 10
year old daughter of Will Holt. white
farmer who lives about two miles from
Wilmot.
A negro answering Johnson's de-

Tuesday night eight miles north of

awaiting the arrival of parties from

was made by Warden Higgins of the

Proving a Big Success,

The big automobile contest inaugu-

already been added to our list. there Is
still big field for work right here in
Dermott as we'll As in nearby towns

Moral Education A
National Necessity.

Years ago de Tocqueville, the great
French statesman. was sent to Ameri-
ca to study our Institutions. On his
return to France he made his report to
the French Senate and in that report
he said. "Sirs, went at your bidding;
| assembled their mountains | went
down into their valleys; | visited their
commercial markets and their empo-
RUINS of trade; entered legislative
halls and their judicial courts
searched everywhere in vain until
entered the church. 1t was there. sirs,
as listened to the soul elevating and
soul equalizing gospel of Christ, as it
fell from Sabbath to Sabbath upon the
waiting multitudes. that learned why
America is great and free and France
is a slave.
The same principles that made Amer
lea great in her early history are as
much factor of greatness today as
they have ever been. The greatest
men of our Nation realize this fact and
that is why regular church attendance
is more of a necessity with everyone of
them from the President down than it
is habit or compliment They realize
the necessity of worship, and the ne
cessity of refreshing the soul and de
veloping the Spiritual side of man so
that it may absolutely control the baser
or animal side of him. There is an
element in every community who differ
with the great men of the Nation on
this point, hut thanks be to the Deity

Begin to pick cotton az soon as a
good picker can pick l25 pounds a day
and pick the crop as fast as it opens
even if it costs 81. 90 more per bale.
The extra cost in harvesting will be
more than made up in the cotton saved

THE STATUE OF LIBERTY NEVER
INVISIBLE NOW

Suddenly transformed from dark
bulk against the darkening sky into
gloriously illuminated figure, the
Statue of Liberty ON the evening OF
December 2, was illuminated by giant
searchlights which formed a perma-
nent lighting plant for the famous
sImbold in New York Harbor presented
to this country by the French people
in 1886. =.
President Wilson gave the signal
that threw the lights upon the statue
for the first time. At dinner after
wards. he made an informal address
in which he spoke in part as follows:
81 was reflecting, as we saw the
light stream upon that beautiful
statue, that its source was outside the
statue; that it did not proceed from
Liberty, but proceeded from the light
We were throwing upon Liberty, and
il occurred to me that, after all, it was
a proper symbol of our life, because
we can take to ourselves the dignity
of Liberty only as we illustrate the
fact and the true spirit of Liberty, and
the only light that We can contribute
to the illumination of the world is the
light that will shine out Of our life
as a nation upon that conception and
upon that image"

THE BOY SCOUT LIFE-sAVeRs

THE BOY SCOUT LIFE-SAVeRS
Some important gatherings peace
conferences and such things-have
been held at The Hague in Holland.
A gathering just as important, from
the point of view of two boys. was
held at The Hague" in Norfolk Va,
on September II, 1916.
1t was a swimming party. for The
Hague" at Norfolk is branch of the
Elizabeth River. An old barge served
as a diving platform.
The swimmers glided through tn"
water so easily that seven-year-Old
boy wi o had never learned TO swim
thought he could do il. He found out,
after he had jumped off the barge
into deep water, that there were points
in the game which he did not under
stand. He went down like sinked.
A boy who was swimming near him
went to the rescue He did not know
how to handle a drowning person and
was soon in trouble himself. There
were all the markings Of a double
drowning when Archie II. iiosier,
first-class Scout, went down TO inVeSti-
gate.
Archie pried them apart, giving the
would-be rescuer a chance to save
himself, then finished the job by fish
ing the other fellow out OF the drink.
Just how near it came TO being the
youngsters last swimming lesson may
be judged from the fact that he was
confined to his bed for two days
On account of the great difficulties
which had to be overcome by the
Scout, and the great risk which he in
Cured, the National Court of Honor
believed that more than ordinary
recognition was due and awarded
silver medal to Scout Hosier.
Ffsherman's luck! Wet, tired, hun
cry, Paul Stephen, a Tenderfoot i'll
Troop No l of Vassar, Mich, was
crossing trestle on his way home.
"Dody's drewning!" came cry from
up the stream. Ninety-nine out of
every 100 persons would have stopped,
hesitated, wondered what to do about
it. But Paul wheeled about and
started back across the trestle.
A race ran under the trest!e. Sixty
feet up stream a creek emptied into
the race A four-year-old boy had ven
tured too far out on the overhanging
bank and it had given away. Paul had
warned him of this very danger but he
had disregarded the warning.
1t was an open trestle and the Scout
was in danger of slipping and break
ing a leg or falling through the tim
hers as he ran He did not know how
deep the water was. He only knew
that the bank was steep and slippery
and that the bottom was full of snags.
In, spite of all that he dove in, clothes
and all.
His promptness and daring pre-
vented a tragedy. Choking, gasping,
the youngster came up in the grasp
of the Scout. With the help of an
other boy he was dragged up the bank
