The aggregation, which is known as

composed of about as soldiers and
one lady, arrived here over the Mo-
bile and Ohio railroad late Sunday
afternoon and on the same evening
its orchestra appeared in a sacred
concert at the First Baptist church.
The spacious auditorium was filled
to capacity, it having been estimated
that there were between $500 and
1000 people present, and the i'm
mense audience was thoroughly
charmed by the excellent program
which was rendered.
At 1890 o'clock Monday MORN

local citizens were accorded the priv

Harold Bell Wright, who has sold
over 100000 copies of his books,
has written his first magazine article
for the February American Magazine.
1t is called The Sword of Jesus" and
asks what Jesus would do in this
great world war. Every man, woman
and child in America should read IL.
In addition there are fine articles
about the Mayo brothers, the great
doctors of Rochester. Mimi; Thomas
Edison mad Abraham Lincoln. The
Edison article presents a new view of
the famous genius, discussing not his
inventions. but the personal wisdom
OF the man. What I Learned from
Abe Lincoln" tells how pictures and
the life of Lincoln has inspired one
man, and Walter Prichard Eaton tells
of the plays worth seeing this winter.
The fiction contains good stories
