4 Iorcet Of Ginnts,

IT Is almost impossible for one who
has seen only the Eastern or Rocky
Mountain forests to imagine the
woods Of the Pacific coast. Pictures
of the big trees are as common as
postage stamps, but the most won
derful thing about the big trees is
that they are scarcely bigger than
the rest of the forest.
The Pacific coast bears only a
tenth of our woodland, but nearly
half of our timber. An average acre
in the Rocky Mountain forest yields
one to two thousand board feet of
timber. in the Southern forest three
TO foar thousand. in the Northern
forest four 10 six thousand.
An acreage acre on the Pacific
coast yields fifteen to twenty thou

Rocky Mountain forests. toss the
Northern on top Of them, aud stuff
tie central into the chinks, and, acre
for acre, the Pacific forest will out
weigh them all.-American Maya

tional and civlizing influence as the
promptness with which il has been
adopted not only by persons of wealth
and culture but the larger classes
who lay no claim to wealth or influ-
ence In the pursuit and demonstration
of artistic pursuit which is their life
work. There are many college pro-
fessors among the inconspicuous but
faithful attendants at many of the
public dances in New York and prob
ably elsewhere. Many of them frankly
admit that dancing never appealed to
them until it broke the barriers of the
formal dancing of few years ago and
entered the field OF poetry of human
movement
Even more sure in its assurance
that modern dancing is but step in
education is the manner in which the
classes of all the great art schools OF
the city have taken to It. The studio
without an automatic music producing
machine is practically unknown. The
public dance place of good repute in
the studio neighborhoods which has
not a very large attendance from the
art schools must have incompetent
musicians and strong competition.
This is true not only of the students
of drawing. painting and sculpture but
of music also. Among the best known
exponets of the modern dance is Miss
Florence Peterson, who is widely
known in the studio world. She is

rev. e.. X. ROGERS
CALLED TO WOOD
WARD, OKLAHOMA
Pastor OF A. II. Presbyterian
Church Will Tender His Res
ignatiOn Sabbath Nov. 80.

The entire membership of
the local A. r. Presbyterian
Church and the many friends of
Rev. G. K. Rogers in Monticello
learn with regret that he has
accepted a call to a Church in
Woodward Oklahoma. At a con-
gregational meeting Sabbath,
November Both he will tender
his resignation.
Mr.. Rogers has been in Mon
ticello about five years, having
accepted the call to this church
as his first pastorate after
graduating from the Associate
Reformed Presbyterian Semi
nary, at Due West, S. c. in the
spring of 1914.
From the beginning Of his
work. Mr.. Rogers has won re-
cognition as man Of strength
and ability not only as a minister
but as a friend, a neighbor and a
citizen, always standing four
square for the right. Perhaps his
most outstanding characteristic
is his genuine helpfulness and
sympathy for those in trouble
or sorrow. With an unselfash-
ness as rare as it is beautiful he
has given laVishly of his time
and energy to help those in need
of assistance of any kind. High
and low rich and poor have ever
found in him a friend who
seemed always to regard it a
privilege to serve.
To the A. T.. =. manse about
one year after his coming to
Monticello, Mr.. Rogers brought,
to the great delight Of the col
gregation, his lovely little bride.
who soon proved herself in every
way a most capable and efficient
pastors wife.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers
have endeared themselves not
only to the people of the Church
they have served but to the en-
tire citizenship of the town.
Their many friends will wish
for them in their new home and
field of service much JOY and
happiness.

REVIVAL AT METHODIST
CHURCH.

The revival that has been in
progress at the M. E. Church
South, came to a close Sunday
evening. The evangelist, Rev.
w. B. Hogg was ablely assisted
throughout the meeting by Mr..
and Mrs. Don Cochran Of Winona
Lake, Ind. Although the meet
ing was short it proved to be a
most enthusiastic revival.
Crowded houses at all services
marked the popularity of the
speaker. Having been a former
rail road engineer and an army
chaplain of more than two years
service, Mr.. Hogg was able to
get in closer touch with the men
than most men of his profess
sion.
On Saturday afternoon an
open air service was given on
the publice square. Sunday
afternoon at the church a meet
ing was held for men only. The
subject of the address was. "The
Devils Cash Register. About
three hundred men heard one of
the most impressive sermons
that has ever been delivered in
this city.
At the evening, the closing
service, long before the opening
hymn the house was filled to its
capacity. Large numbers turn
ed away unable to find standing
room. A powerful discourse
was given on Paul's message to
Agrippa.
Before coming to Monticello,
Mr.. Hogg had just closed a very
successful meeting at Asbury
Church at Little Rock. During
the time that he was stationed
at Camp Pike as an army chap
lain and during his recent meet
ing at Little Rock and Month
cello, he became so favorably i'm
dressed with the state that he
has decided to give up his Mis-
sissippi charge and transfer to

SEALS AND HELP
PREVENT DISEASE.

Dr.. John Thames, the recently
appointed Health Officer Of lit
tie Rock. n 4 recent interview
called attention to the appalling
death rate in Pulaski county last
year from tuberculosis and IN
tlueHaa. Dir. Thames said:
1t is a matter Of record that
two preventable diseases pre-
valent in Pulaski County caused
nearly three times as many
deaths during the year 1918 as
were listed IN the World War
from the entire State fer Tie
whole period Of the war. In
a ctaai figures tuberculosis
claimed 326 and influenza 523 in
1913, ard the war 1876 for the
entire State for the whole period
Of the war.
The influenza death rate was
so high because the disease be-
came q worldwide pandenic.
From the experience of past
epidemics, we are preparing for
and expect a recurrence, ard the
number Of cases we have and the
number Of deaths following will
be in direct proportion to the
preventive measures practic d
by the people
"Nhila Influenza claimed so
many within itself, it also weak
ems the system Of those who do
not die Of it and prepares the
way for It's ally, tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis is with us at all
times, and is claiming so many
of our valuable citizens, it is
high time the people are arous-
ed to the necessity Of putting
forth every effort for its pre-
vention. The scientists have
proven that tuberculosis can be
prevented as easily as any
other communicable disease, if
the proper work is done.
The National tuberculosis
Association has worked SO in.
tensively and so extensively in
this field, that it is the national
authority on tuberculosis con-
troll measures. It is now render
ing assistance to the United
States Government in tuber-
culosis sanitoria for soldiers,
and the nation wide campaign it
is now undertaking through the
sale of Red Cross Christmas
seals, handled in this State by
the Arkansas Public Health As
ISOLATION, should have the Wig
orous support OF every com
munity."
