WHEAT FIELDS DRAWING
 MANY BOYS AND MEN
Squad of Eighteen Members of Oak Grove, La. High School Class
 Passes Through City.

With wheat harvesting started in Texas. and gradually to work north ward, into Oklahoma, Kansas and other states in that section of the wheat belt while at the same time schools and colleges are ending their terms, countless boys and men are leaving this section of the country for the wheatfields, to aid in the harvest ing.
 Several Pine Bluff boys plan to go to points in Oklahoma for this pur- pose, the idea being to get the healthy outdoor work, earn the good pay of s6 per day "and keep that is offered and at the same time help to harvest the country's crops of foodstuffs, a patriotic duty not less important than the providing of money or giving ac- tual service in the army.
 There passed through Pine Bluff Tuesday morning, a squad of eighteen husky young Louisiana school boys, all members of classes of the Oak Grove high school. The boys were headed for Oklahoma, to help in the wheat harvest, and they were led by Prof. John Tanner, member of the faculty of the Oak Grove school. The boys, according to Prof. Tanner, are able to do the work. and will follow the harvestcrs on their annual rounds, until the entire crop has been harvest ed. The boys all wore nice new out fits of overalls,' carried no baggage, and made the trip from Oak Grove to Little Rock principally on freight trains. At Little. Rock. they expected to get lift" through the state en- ployment agency.

Young Mems Civic League
in Novel Campaign Stunt
Friday Evening.
F. 8. Geld.

What perhaps may prove to be one
of the most interesting mass meetings
of the local campaign will be held
Friday evening in the Knights of
Columbus hall when the Young Mems
Civic league will publicly discuss the
several candidates for the various city
Offices. ..
The candidates will each be repre-
scented by prominent speaker who
will present the claims Of those run
ming for Office. In this way the pub
lie will be given an unusual opportuni-
ty to compare effectively the men who
are to guide the business of the city
during the next important two years.
The Civic league was organized sew
eral weeks ago for the purpose of
interesting young men in politics.
Believing that many young men did
not even vote at civic elections the
idea was conceived Of an organization
where they could freely discuss issues
and candidates before the general pub
lie. Everyone is invited to the mass
meeting tomorrow night which will
start promptly at o'clock in the
Knights of Columbus hall.

Real American Sentiment
From Man of German Birth

less in a country then a barren wilder
ness. nothing to look forward to. only
possibilities. Yet he chose to take
the hardships of frontiersman in the
land Of the free. than to raise his
family subjects to the German kaiser.
But we have been patient. If actual
war ever exists it will be because
Germany in an unwise moment forced
the issue upon us. 1t is for us to be
loyal to the grandest flag in the world,
q flag which our ancestors saw in the
distance like a star OF hope through q
cloudy sky.
Let us all reach out our hands to
our president and tell the world. that
he is the greatest man on earth be-
cause he is president OF the United
States. Yours.

PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To HAVE EXAMINATIO

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov 1.-THE semi
annual examinations of applicants for
the grade of certified public account
ant in Georgia will be held at the Ans
ley Hotel in this city beginning We'd
nesday morning, November 81, at .
o'clock. and lasting for two days
Indications are there will be an un-
usually good class for these examine
tons, because of the extraordinary de-
mand almost everywhere in the state
for accountants who possess the Geor-
gia certificate 1t is absolutely es-
sential under the law that any man
who practices as a certified public ac-
countant in Georgia must have a
Georgia certificate Neither a certi-
ficate from any ohter state, nor the
American Institute of Accountants
will answer; unless he holds the Geor-
gia certificate he is not a certified pub
lie accountant in this state.
Business men and corporations are
almost uniformly demanding now that
their work be doe by certified account
ants, and accounting firms in Georgia
are having some difficulty in keeping
enough of these to meet the growing
demand
The Georgia Board of Examiners Of
Certified Public Accountants is com
posed Of Joel Hunter, Of Atlanta, chair
man; r. w Jemison, of Macon, Sec
rotary, and Harold Hirsch, of Atlanta,
legal member All OF these will be
present and engage in the conduct Of
the examination Wednesday and
Thursday. They especially urge that
all candidates for the examination be

ATLANTA PEOPLE CATCH SUNDAY
WHEN He USES ANOTHER'S WORDS
INTERFERING TO GENERAL LEE
HE QUOTED BEN HILLS FAMOUS
GRAFTON WITHOUT GIVING ANY
CREDIT FOR 1T.

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. IA New York
paper caught Billy Sunday in the act
of stealing Bob Ingersolls thunder,
and exposed the pagirasm with dead
" parallel of columns on the front
page, which Billy explained by saying
somebody furnished him the Ingersoll
Grafton and he adapted certain por-
tions of it without knowing where it
came from, or words to that effect.
Perhaps on this account, or perhaps,
without knowing anything about this
interesting parallel of front page col
umns. Atlanta critics and observers OF
the famous evangelist are watching
him closely and sending communica-
tons to the newspapers pointing out
where he has culled from this piece Of
literature and that grafton.
OF course, nothing gets into print
about it, because the Atlanta newspa-
pers are supporting the Billy Sunday
campaign in the perfectly honest be-
lief that he is going to accomplish
some good, but some of the communi-
cations would make interesting reading
if they were printed.
The other night Billy paid tribute
to Robert e. Lee in the famous lam
guage of Ben Hill, describing the
South's great leader as "a man with
out guile, a general without egotism,
a soldier without cruelty foe with
cut hate, Napoleon without his amb-
ton, Frederick the Great without his
tyranny, and Washington without his
reward.
The tribute came in the middle Of
Billy's sermon without any pause to
explain that the language was quoted,
and likewise appeared in the printed
of the sermon. Next day
the newspapers got a flock Of letters
