WEDDING BELLS.

A few intimate friends assembled at the home of Mir. and Mrs. W. E. Holt, to witness the marriage of their daughter, Kathleen, to Lieutenant J. K. Bishop, Wednesday morning, Au- gust 28. The porch and parlors were filled with growing plants. Flags were in evidence everywhere, but the archway between hall and living room was artistically draped with the Stars and Stripes.
 Promptly at ten o'clock Miss Ruby Cook, a guest of Miss Holt's, accom- panied by Mir. Owen, the friend of Lieutenant Bishop, played few soft chords on the piano and the bride and groom entered, taking their place under the arch where the Rev. Mir. Smith, pastor of the Baptist church, in few, but impressive words, made them one.
 Little Julia Alice Boughan, sweet dainty maid of ten, was ring bearer.
 The bride was gowned in white Georgette over white satin; the groom in his uniform.
 Lieutenant Bishop is an A. E. grad uate of Ouachita college He was cadet captain at college before en- tering the service. It was while study ing there that he met Miss Holt, who is also an Ouachita graduate, and the friendship was formed that ended in the marriage that was witnessed on Wednesday. He received his lieuten- ants commission in the Fourth Off, cers' Training Camp. His home is in Columbus, Ark.
 Many congratulations have been re- ceived by Mir. and Mrs. Holt, sssur- ing them of the many fine qualities possessed by their new son.
 Kathleen has lived from earliest childhood in Mena and many were the sweet words spoken of her and the fond hope that life's richest gifts would be hers. "The light that never was on land or sea- shone in their faces; perfect love, yet with touch of awe as they seemed to realize they were standing on the threshold of a new and wonderful life with many difficult problems to solve, yet feel ing assured Love would make smooth the rough places and as the shadows heightened on the downward slope of the hill" be guiding star into the beautiful beyond.
 Holy and sweet is the tie that binds Two loving hearts today;
 His task to battle for God and right, Hers, to wait and pray.
 Affectionately, [

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN 2

All during Friday night, when the good rain came down steadily and abundantly, there doubtless were thousands in Polk county, remember ing the anxious hours during the drouth of July and early August, thought of "what might have been." If this last good rain had come at the right time very many Polk county farmers now would be feeling pros porous, would have been assured of plenty of food and feed for the com Ing seasons, instead of being deeply disappointed after such bright pros poets early--after working and toil- ing to do little more than usual to help themselves by helping win the war.
 But there's no use repining over "what might have been" The rain, coming late, will fatten the pastures and put many a pound of good meat on hogs and cattle, and will bring forth much in the fall gardens. It is great blessing. and Polk county, thru the efforts of her people and the rain, will profit greatly.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON COTTON
AhCStAVitat'SAy Mary B. Wigstrand.

The Committee on Agronomy with the College of Agriculture at Fay etteviiie makes the following recon mendations to the cotton farmer:
 i. Market cotton only as demand ed this year.
 2. Make arrangements to carry over any part of the cotton crop not needed now, to meet the demand when peace may be declared.
 3. Keep the grades separate in picking and ginning.
 4. Insist on heavy bales to save space in shipping.
 5. Cover the bales we'll and store properly to prevent deterioration and loss.
 6. Store the seed carefully and ir small lots on the farms, to prevent heating, etc, and market as needed by the mills.

The Associated Press summary an- nounces that the taking of the Dro- court -Queant line, as told in the news columns, ends the menace of the fa- nous Hindenburg line. In fact, the claims made that this line cannot be maintained further by the Ger maR forces. That is the kind of news that fits the humor of the American people. Some day we will hear, if we keep on trying, that the Huns cannot maintain any bno except to beg for quarter. And there should be no let Up until that glad day.

WINNING pAY BY DAY.

Days have gone into weeks and still each unit of time tells of gains made by the allies in France-oi driving the Germans back and back, of taking prisoners and munitions, And so far there is a vast and pleas ing difference between this and any other drive. In the Hun efforts there were grat lunges and plunges, vio- lent, irresistible, carried forward at great cost of life, and then cessation. It was tremendous force sent on- ward in one direction until momentum was lost.
 General Foch, on the other hand, covering a vast front, and with a force that seems flexible. nips in here and bites in there, hitting the weak spots and the vital points in the en- emy line, giving him no peace and no rest anywhere, and as the days length en into weeks these tactics seem to be breaking the nerve of the enemy, un- til, the late news indicates, he is rushing almost pellmell to escape the Nemesis that, day and night, hour by hour, presses on his heels.
 Somehow, to the uninitiated, the feeling grows that Foch has adopted the plan that is going to, in the end, strike terror in the Hunnish heart, and is making the way easy for the son to Berlin" move that is the bat tie cry of every American, here or in France.
 Let the drive go on and on until the mothers and babes of the Lusitan- ia horror and the ravaged peoples of Belgium and France are avenged in ten fold measure and then keep on at the task until the Hun has been taught lesson that dozen genera tions will not suffice to allow him to forget.
