BUY OAT DRILLS TOGETHER

The county agents report that in a number of instances men are getting together to buy grain drills. This is very good practice and if the owners of small tracts of land in Arkansas are to compete with their more veal thy brothers they must cooperate not only to buy oat drills but many other things simply because they cannot afford to get them in any other way and without these things they cannot produce a crop as economically as the man who has them. Why not get to- gether and buy corn shredders, stump pullers, req and bean harvesterS, and anything else that you may need? Do not forget that V. H. Kern, farm ma chinery specialist with the Extension Division of the University of Arkan- sas, will be glad to give advice and help you at any time.

War Takes "curse" of Wrist Watch

The wrist watch for men Is coming into it's own in the opinion of jewellers, who declare that the use of this class of timepiece by the boys in khaki has removed the "curSe" on the watch, which caused a smile whenever seen just below mans cuff. There is no indication to snicker at the wearing apparel of the men who are to enter the fight in France, and the fact that nearly every one of them wear a wrist watch is in the opinion of the jewel CTS. the salvation of the watch which one time was worn exclusively Dy "women."

AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSO-
 CAPTION WAR COUNCIL

While fear has been expressed that there is danger of the country being oypr-organized on account of the eX- taordinary demands that are being made upon the people when called sud denly from peaceful pursuits to pre- Daration for a world war, out of it all should come great good in the causes for which aid is sought. It is found that there are innumerable avenues through which aid may be provided for an army of more than a million men, on land and sea. Many important lessons have been learned in recent years, especially in the care of men, that the disgrace of Chicka- mauga and Anniston may be avoided. The United States is leading the allies in the recognition of the value | of maintaining man-power at it's highest degree of efficiency, also the unit value of a man. American gen eralship will never adopt the Teutonic system of the shock formation," in which men are sacrificed ruthlessly
 and needlessly.
 The Red Cross, the |, NJ. C. A. and
 other agencies are provided and liber-
 ally supported for the comfort and
 convenience of the men. The latest undertaking, designed in a measure to
 solve the yeXatious problem of recre-
 atOnaI activities, is the organization
 ol the American Library Association
 War Council upon the recommends
 uOn or Secretary of War Baker and
 secretary of the Navy Daniels.
 The object of the State Library
 'Ounell is to collect funds for the erection of libraries and the purchase aHu maintenance of books for use by
 ue soldiers both in the S5th divisional 'Nn.onment and in the cantonments " Oe constructed in France. Gov. D'Ougn has appointed the following '' members of the Arkansas Council:

The subject of educating the public in regard to the care of the teeth was discussed at the recent convention Of the Indiana State Dental Association, and the lack of knowledge of parents and school teachers along this line was deplored In the physiologies, Dr. House saidr only one or two pages were devoted to the oral cavity. The state board of health and the medical profession. he said were everlastlngly reminding the public concerning the use of pure food, "and just think Of the millions of mouths that the in- stant they close on morsel of food have it made impure by bacteria, both pathogenic and nonpathogenic, which actually swarm in the mouth
 It was suggested that dentist should have a place on the state board of health and that a treatise on oral hygiene should be published for the teachers of the public schools.
 Dr. ]. w. Roper, of Princeton. made report with regard to free dental inspection in the Princeton public schools. He said the plan had proved satisfactory. The work was given a thorough tryout in the Princeton schools during the last year and par ents and teachers were pleased.

PRAYING DOWN HINDU TEMPLE
Bishop Warne Of Methodist Episcopal
Church Tells Story Of Woman's
Vision In India.

Bishop Warne Of the Methodist
Episcopal church tells this remark
able story of victory through pray
er. A strong Hindu leader had been
converted. He was head man over
5000, who had become Christians,
and through his influence the old
temple was torn away and a church
was built. Later he fell away, and
the missionary, returning to the vii
lage, found a new temple built i'm
mediately adjoining the new Chris
tian church. The missionary went
to the bishop and asked him to "first
call day of prayer"
Following this advice, he called to-
gether all the missionaries, and they
me! for prayer at a place some 80
miles away. After they had prayed
sometime one of the lady mission
aries arose and said: 81 cannot pray
any longer; 1 have victory. 1t seems
i have had a vision and saw the
forces of light and darkness bat
ting in the air. The darkness had
faded away and light has tri-
umphed." The next morning at day
break a messenger came and stated
that on the previous afternoon at
about the hour of the lady's vision
the temple had been torn down.
