FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

Owing to the new epidemic abroad in the land and the united effort on the part of our government to stay the same, all services of the Pres byterian church are called off Sun day. The pastor is ready to be of any assistance to the sick where he can. Parents will please go over the Sunday school lessons together at home. Our plans for the mems meeting are moved up few weeks Our program on church and christian efficiency is just moved forward un' til we have services again. It is earnestly hoped the churches will not have to be closed more than one Sabbath. The break in the continu ity of our work and the distraction is hard to overcome. When sickness has closed the church doors among us, is a good time to be attentive and helpful toward our brothers and all others whom we may help No services next Sabbath. But thu well need to look after those wht are sick.

STEAMBOAT 16 MONTHS
 ASHORE AGAIN FLOATS

Helena, Oct. 8.-The steamer Kate Adams, one of the best known of the Mississippi river craft, is back in her element after a sojourn on dry land for a period of Is months. Dur ing the high water of June 17 of last year the handsome steamboat grounded. The waters subsided, leav ing her high and dry far from water. She has been out of commission ever since. Trestles had to be built and the boat gradually moved river ward. She has been moved 200 feet in the last month and yesterday she had the experience, rare among steamboats, of second launching. She took the water from her trestie without accident and will soon be making her uninterrupted trips in the Memphis-Helena service.

 THE, ACREAGE IN WHEAT

Star Greig, farm demonstration, is sending out questionnaires to the farmers in each school district in the county for the purpose of ascer' taining how much wheat, rye and oats will be planted this fall. He has heard from sixteen of the thirty nine school districts in the county. that they will SOW 1,722 acres in wheat, $50 in rye and 842. in. oats. This by no means, covers the total acreage in these grains in the six. teen districts reporting, because a great many farmers who, have sown or contemplate sowing wheat, rye and oats have made no report.

MORE LEEWAY FOR
R. R. POLITICIANS
Employees, However, Are
Not Permitted to Con-
duct Campaigns
LABOR UNIONS
WIN CONCESSIONS
By ihe Unlled Press

bg tne Jnlteu press.
WASHINGTON, oct. 23-Employes of
the National Railways today were Civ
en- more leeway TO engage in politics.
Modification OF the anti-polltics order
of The Railroad Administration bearing
the approval Of President Wilson was
announced by Director General McAdoo.
Although officials refuse TO admit IT,
the modification OF the political ban
was regarded here as a victory for the
union labor leaders. All the four great
brotherhOods vigorously protested
against the original order and insisted
that the regulations were too string
ent.
II has developed since the issuance
OF the original order that there are
many communities In the United States
which are composed largely and in
some cases wholly Of railroad employees
and their families. Administration OF
civil laws therefore was Obstructed. Il
was upon this basis that the labor
leaders made their strongest fght.
While the new regulations still hold
a tight rein over political activities. the
railway employees are given the liberty
OF engaging In politics insofar as their
activities are not incompatible with
their railroad duties" The restrictions
contained in the original order have
been raised 50 far as department regula-
tions viii permit, officials declare.
The new order specifies:
That no officers, attorney or en-
ployes shall assume the conduct Of any
political campaign.
Il prohibits also the holding OF a po-
sition as a member or officer Of any
political committee or organization
which sOlicits funds for political pur-
poses or any organization which re-
quires the railroad emplOye to neglect
his railroad duties.
The provision against intimidation OF
the railroad employees by any railroad
emplOye is made drastic. Penalties for
such action are immediate dismissal.
with orders that such persons shall not
be re-emplOyed so long as the govern
ment controls the railroads.

crease would apply TO bills sent out Oc-

Strengthened out by the gas company

ing 20 correct all bills where the new
rate is charged 10 The old rate and re
fund any money paid on the bases OF
the new rate. The increase Will now
