ON The RATILE LINE

The Allies continued to have the
best of the Germans on the battle
line in France and Belgium during
the past week, but the advance has
been slower. Belgium has been oc-
cupied from the coast east to Client
and Tournai. In France gains have
been made and Valenciennes is now
nearly surrounded. The Americans
continue to do their full share of the
fighting.
Turkey has not quit the Germans
yet, the latter having threatened to
lombard Constantinople unless Tur-
key staid in line.
In Serbia allied troops have reoc-
cupied a large part of the country,
being within a few miles of Belgrade,
the capital.
Further notes have passed be-
twee the United States and Germany
peace proposals. Let the
continue and peace
will be on its way.

3. BROWN PASSES AWAY.

On Oct. II, 1918, the Lord saw tit
in his goodness and wisdom to call
Elder j. B.Brown of Mannsville, Ok
lahoma, to come where the dead in
Christ shall live throughout the.
ceaseless ages of never ending
eternity, where God shall wipe away
all tears and where heartaches are
unknown. where troubles and tribu-
1ations never come, where we say no
more goodbyes.

Nov. 80, 1882. To this union has
been born ten children, eight Of
whom yet survive and were present
upon this occasion. Six of this num-
ber are faithful children Of our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ.

came a member of the Church Of
Christ under the peacrnIng OF Elder
Hiram Pharris at Antioch on Flynn's
Greek Besides being faithful
Christian since his obedience to the
gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the
power of God to save those who be-
lieve, he had for about twenty years
been faithful preacher of the Bible.
Fourteen years ago he moved from
Bloomington to Tyler, then in Indian
Territory, now Oklahoma, where, he
has lived for several years and has
vast acquaintance nd host OF
strong friends. Elder Hollinsworth
of Mannsville, who was among the
first of Bro. Browns acquaintances
when he came west, was very atten-
