"Peas in a Pod"
Sermon Was a
Unique Effort

Rev. Guhse delivered another of his
interesting and novel subject sermons
last Sunday, the subject being "Peas
in Pod" He told of having taken
up a peapod, breaking it open, seeing
there six perfectly formed peas, and
Thinking of how nature had provided
her wonders for mans benefit in vege-
table production, and said how perfect
the peas were as they lay there in
the shell, representing so much that
was wonderful in the providence of
God for mankind. The ways of man
are like these peas in the pod, he said.
There are six wonderful virtues we
all need to cultivate in order to get
along on the roadway of life with the
most good to the many with whom we
are thrown in contact. In our race
to the goal of good deeds and happi-
ness we have to pick these six vir-
tues: Purpose, perseverance, prayer
patience, peace, power. He elaborated
each of these virtues, told all that
each meant in their regular order as
related to the Christians onward ca
reer, and made altogether one of his
most interesting sermons.

KENSETT SCHOOL GIRL
 DEAD AFTER FIGHT
SUCCUMBS TO INJURIES SAID TO HAVE BEEN INFLICTED BY
 HER TEACHER

Miss Bessie Moddin Of Kensett, died Friday night from injuries said to have been inflicted by Miss Dale. a teacher in the High School of Ken sett.
 It was said that Miss Moddin was sufferer from heart trouble and that her parents had requested tbc teachers of the Kensett school that should the occasion arise where t was deemed necessary to reprimand her, or that any form of punishment was required, to report the matter fully to them and that they woul3 take the necessary steps, that t was dangerous to excite the girl in any way because of her affIietion
 It is alleged that a short time ago Miss Dale, the teacher ia the room attended by Miss Moddin. became ia- censed because the girl had referred to other children in the room as teachers petsn and attempted to chastise her. 1t is also charged that the principal of the school shut the door and stoed by while Miss Dale knocked Miss Moddin down and beat  her with her fists. The girl was talk en home after the trouble and Rbysi- elan calia3 8he stated that three rib were broken and that other iniarea were inflicted. She lived aaga Fri day, when she died.

ROAD DISTRICT LAW
 UPHELD BY COURT
DECISION OF SUPREME COURT ON PULASKI DISTRICT OF IN
 TEREST TO STATE

Little Rock, June 9.-The supreme court today sustained the validity of the five road improvement districts created for Pulaski County by the last Legislature. Associate Justice Hart handed down a dissenting opinion. The act creating the district was at tackled on several grounds, chief among which was that the district was an invasion on the rights of the county court, that it was diseriminat- ing against the city of Little Rock, and that though the common charge of costs and expenses of all of the five roads in the district to the gener- al district, an injustice might be worked on individual owners affected by only one of the roads.
 Another objection was that certain Lonoke County lands not included in the district would be benefited by the proposed improvement. The su- preme court held that the boundaries of the district had to be made some where, and that the Legislature could not be said to have acted arbitrarily in failing to extend the district into county which the road does not penetrate.
 The opinion is of great interest to the entire state, as several other road districts created by the last Legisla- ture will be affected by the decision. It also means that with the Hot Springs road being pushed in a sep arate district Little Rock will have six of the principal roads leading out of the city improved, according to the most modern methods.

He escap- es and when Pearl shows gratitude to Gresham for having rescued her she is warned by her cousin, Naomi that Gresham is not what he seems to be. The next day the Waldon fam fly, each member of which is seeking to control the Waldon War Works, which they own in common, start out to visit the plant Naomi does not go with the other members of the family, pretending to be i'll. On the way to the works their motor car stalls and Pear uncle, Ezra, sug- gests that they call on Gresham, whose apartment is nearby.

OPENING OF
IND. RESERV ATTN

The Eagle Butte News of last
week contained the following in
reference to movement in which
Forest City people have great
deal of indirect interest:
''The Indians of the Cheyenne
River Reservation held councils at
the various subagencies the first of
the week, the business under con-
sideration being a proposition to
open the diminished reserve to
homestead entry. While many of
the Indians in the open portion of
the reservation favor the opening
of the balance of the reservation,
much opposition to the plan devel-
oped, it is reported, from those
living in the unopened country
particularly. one of the objections
arising from the fact that no land
would be left for allotment to chill
dren in the future, and that their
rapge for live stock would he too
seriously curtailed. Indians who
have been given their citizenship
are inclined to favor opening. for
the reason that they assume this
would be means of final settle
ment of tribal interests and a divi-
sion of the moneys held in trust
for them by the government.
AS we understand, the tribal
cattle leases have a period of two
years yet to run and the govern
ment will probably do nothing re-
garding the matter until the end of
said period. The present agitation
is for the purpose of securing the
consent Of a majority of the Indi
ans on the diminished reserve to
the proposed opening.
