W. c. T. U.

The w. c. T. U. held an interesting meeting yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Sam Logan. A pro- gram on Prohibition in War Times" was led by Mrs. Jordan. At the close of the meeting six children represent ing the Fourth grade presented to the Union donation of 5000 to be used in caring for the French orphan recently adopted by the Union. En- closed was the following note:
 In memory of Paul Davis. Whereas, God, the children's Friend, has been pleased to take our little comrade, Paul Davis, to live with Him in His beautiful home in heaven; we, the children and teacher of the Fourth grade, wish to donate ten dollars to the w. c. T. U. orphans fund in honor and in memory of Paul. We shall ever think of him as happy play-fellow and bright industrious student. just loaned by God us for short happy while to be a reminder of Him.
 Because weather conditions at the time of his death prevented us from decorating his grave with a floral tri- bute, as we wuold have wished to have done, our thoughts turned next to one of Paul's dearest wishes and ambitions during his long days of patient suffering, that of helping in the great war relief work.
 So we thought n help some other child would be as pleasing to him and would express our love and sympathy.
 Lovingly,
 THE FOURTH GRADE.

Matthew, one of the most interest ing and instructive books in the bible, will be the subject of discussion again next Sunday at the Teacher Training Class of the Methodist church. Much interest is being manifested in this line of work even during the extreme ly inclement weather. H. B. McKen- aie, the teacher, is at the head of the Teacher Training work in the Prescott district, and is said by many outsiders to be the most efficient in the Little Rock Conference. You miss much by not attending these classes.

Minor and Wheeler Gordon, who have been in Memphis for the past week standing the examination for theraviation corps, returned today and report that although it will be few weeks before they hear definitely as to their success in the examination, they feel sure they have passed, but will have to await official notification.
 The restaurants and hotels of the city are strictly observing the meat less and wheatless days and meals as recommended by the food administra- tion, and notices to that effect have been posted in each place of business. This attitude toward conserving the food supply which is taken by Prescott eating houses deserves commendation because of the patriotic spirit with which each have volunteered to strict ly observe these rules of the admins tration.
 If we win the war, wouldn't you like to say that you and your children had a part, if even a small part, in financing it, and especially when you only lend your Uncle Sam the money? The easy route is to buy War Savings Stamps and do it today.
