If you would know how eight cow boys, brought direct from their life on the plains to the contrasting scenes of Fifth avenue and New York"s high society, see "Love's Lariat," the immensely engaging comedy drama, to be represented in Bluebird Photoplays at the Grand tonight with Harry Carey and Olive Fuller Golden leading a large and capable company of camera-stars The possibilities for humorous scenes
 and situations, the sharp contrast in surroundings, usages and environ ment, have been skillfully interpret ed-and the romantic love story that lends "heart interest" to the ultimate outcome will serve as a satisfying in terlude to an excellent entertainment.

June 29, 1870, and this union was blessed with 10 children, eight hay ing preceded their father to the other shore, leaving a kind and devoted wife and two sons, James and Dean, to mourn their loss, besides hosts of sorrowing relatives and friends. He was a kind and loving husband and father, and to know him was to love him, and the large attendance of neighbors and friends at the cemetery testified to the high esteem in which he was held by the entire community. It does seem hard to part with our loved ones, but God in His infinite wisdom doeth all things well.

The following is the pro- gram: Leader, Mrs. S. G. Smith; "Arkansas as Mission Field" Mrs. w. B. Hubbell; vocal duet, Mrs. w. s. Cazort and Miss Sallie Craig; "Ar- kansas as Mission Field,' Mrs. Frank E.

 Ladies, come out to this meeting. We feel assured of a profitable and enjoyable time, and this invitation is not only for the missionary societies of the different denominations but for the women generally of the vari- ous churches.
 The last two meetings of the Bap- tist Woman's Missionary Society have been unusually interesting and strengthening, the subject for one meeting being "A review of the work of 1916 and plans for 1917, and the other Mothers Meeting" which is al- ways helpful.

IN MEMORY.

Samuel Y. Cox who passed away at the home of his son, James Cox, was born in Georgia, November 20
 l846, and lived to the age of 70 years. He came to Conway with his par ents at the age of two years and re- sided in the same community the rest of his life. He left home apparently in good health on the morning of December 13, to attend to some busi- ness in Conway, and was suddenly taken ill, from which illness he never recovered. The funeral serv- ices were held at the home of his son December 21, Rev. L. M. Sipes officiating. Interment was at Caney cemetery. Samuel Y. Cox united in marriage to Matilda J. McCarty

He is a graduate of Emory and Henry College. After being admitted to the bar he became private secretary to ex-President An drew Johnson.
 The Detroit Free-Pr made the following comment upon Dr. Small s address in that city: Those who heard Rev. Sam Small at the auditor ium yesterday afternoon were held spellbound by his powers of logic, wit and earnesct eloquence. He quickly finds the sea-level of his audience and then he moves it to tears, laughter or applause at his will. Perhaps the liquor traffic never before, in Detroit, received more drastic going-over than it got in Dr. Small's speech
 The lecture is given under the aus pices of the Anti-Saloon League of America with the cooperation of the Arkansas league. No admission fee will be charged.

In the second method the fruit is

veal is 1870, leg of lamb is 1900, and
mutton is 1,0S5.
1t is possible with the aid of this
picture to make up balanced ration
which will be not only economical but
which is scientifically designed. A low
cost balanced ration might be as fol-
lows: Steamed rice, raisins, maple
syrup, whole wheat bread, butter, glass
Of milk and two heaping tablespoonfuls
of ice cream. This would give 03S Gallo
ries. A high-cost balanced ration
which would give 1,165 calories would
consist of clam chowder, salmon GRO
quettes, baked sweet potatoes, bread,
butter, custard pie and coffee. This
gives 400 grammes of protein, against
23.2 grammes for the low-cost balanced
ration.
If every one were alive to the possi-
bility of the balanced ration we would
have little fear from a food famine.

Dublin, July 28.-No one knows when
the Irish convention will end nor what
it will bring forth. 1t might last three
months or be wrecked in a week. The
Defence of the Realm Act prohibits any
reference to its meetings beyond the
official reports, though the secrecy oil
it's sessions is in name only.
Here is a convention holding sessions
in Trinity College, a stones throw
from St. Stephens Green, where the
Countess Markievicz and her band Of
rebels fought a year ago, and a little
further away stand the ruins of Sack
Vile Street, looking much the same as
they did the day the Sim Feiners sur
rendered. Here is John Redmond long
time boss of the Nationalists, and so
popular with the masses two or three

was always the occasion of big
demonstration. But to-day instead OF
cheers he is greeted with Kisses and
cries of Traitor"
OF England's many problems, that of
Jreland's future is not the least. But
five hundred would be a liberal esti-
mate of the crowd which gathered TO
watch the arrival of the delegates TO

the turning point in the history of Ire
land, while four thousand attended the
Curragh races, where some $4,000 was
distributed in purses during the three
Gays' meeting. l talked with a work
ingman at Liberty Hall, and he spoke
with pride Of his part in the rebellion,
his arrest, Imprisonment and release
a few days ago. He profcssed total
ignorance Of the convention. but final

everything possible TO create a favor

and then the Sim Feiners refused TO

power is increasing steadily, and not

Introduces Three Bills
Almost Identical With

Three bill. almost identical with the
armed neutrality acts of 1898, when
the United States had to protect it's
shipping from devastation in the Napo-
leonic wars. have been introduced by
Representative Platt of New York. The
bills are almost word for word as
passed by the Congress of the United
States in 119S. with the exception that
the word France" has been changed to
Germany" and the omission of obso-
iete sections referring to privateerinp.
One of the bills is non-intercourse
declares is essential 'It ought to be
passed in spite of the fact there is
scarcely any intercourse with GERMANY
Il was part of the general scheme in
1898"
The three bills include one "to pro-
tect the commerce of the United States"
one to suspend commercial intercourse
between the United States and the Ger
man empire and one ito authorize the
defense of the merchant vessels of the
United States against German depre-
dations.' The latter meas sure empowers
a merchantmen to resist by force any
assault committed or threatened nv a
German snip; also to retake any
American merchant vessel captured or
to aid any mer@hantman under the
stars and Stripes in danger of being
hurt by German. One of the bills
