OVER THE TOP

Thd big drive is on us. Now the
issue of life or death, faithfulness or
unfaithfulness, must be decided. Re-
sponsibility is individual. What have
you done? What will your record be
when the organization is investigated
In these days the church must be stirr-
ed as no man ever before dreamed it
could be stirred. We must not be
slackers. Only towards quail when
the time comes to go out.

Do you believe in helping the needy?
The oppressed, the widows and the
orphans of France and Belgium?
Do you believe in providing schools
for the mountain boys and girls? Do
you believe it is right to send doctors
to China when they have only one doc
tor to every million people?
Do you believe in building houses
for girls who go to the city to work,
where they may have clean, healthful
Surroundings at a minimum cost? If
your girl were compelled to go to the
city to make her way would you be
glad there was a real home for her,
where a motherly christian woman
would watch over and care for her?
Then you believe in missions.

HORNER PRESENTS
MUSICAL ARTISTS
Premier Concert Artists, Aggre
CATION Of Picked Musicians Sing
ycur FavOrite Songs at
'nautauQua


Some of the best musical attractions
that have appeared before the Amer
lean public have been adversely criti-
cised because they did not sing the
songs that the people wanted. The
Premier Concert Artists is company
representing selections made from
many musical artists. They take rank
AS one of the biggest musical attrac-
tiOns Chas. +. Horner has ever pre-
sented ut the Chautauqua.
The company will consist Of six
splendid soloists, supported by flute,
piano and violin. They are perfectly
capable of singing anything in music,
yet the bulk of their program is to
consist Of the songs that have long
been favorites with the public. Old
favorite songs will mean more to us
after we have heard them sung by
these artists, for they know how to put
the sentiment into them with their
rich expressive voices. Elaborate
stage settings designed especially for
this company by Mattein of New York
City will lend added effectiveness and
charm TO this important program.

Reports are being circulated to the
effect that another location has been
selected in the Quay community. This
is well-founded but under certain con-
ditions only will the company put up
the money to put down test well.
After the first well is completed IL
will not cost so much to put down an
other we'll as the operators will know
what size drill to begin work with,
provided they are not required to go
more than $500 feet This is given
as the reason why the company must
have large acreage of leases before
they will expend thousands Of dollars
nuttin~ down test well. This Is one
reason why the farmers should be very
careful to WHOM they lease their prop
erty. Find out who wants your lease
and look out for scalpers.

route Home.

entirely of Colorado troops and of

ID, is one of the units, has embarked
at Bordeaux and is enroute home. They

be done at Fort Russell in Wyoming
instead of taking them odt 10 Californ-

will be generally approved. and could
yet be improved upon by making it
Fort Logan instead Of For Russell.

In Argonne Fight.

S. Sorenson, who lived north of Cad
doa, and formerly worked on the J.
NJ. Williams ranch, is back from
France. He was formerly member of
Company D., and was transferred to
one of the regular army units. He
was in the thick of the fighting on the
famous Argonne battle line, and re-
ceived bad flesh wounds on each of
his hands which left long scars, but
Re was fortunate in not losing the use
of either hand or even the fingers.
Thht was admitted to be one of the
hottest scraps of the war and Mr..
Screnson says it was just as warm
as he cares to be mixed up in.

A Poor Winner.

1t is sometimes hard to be a good
loser but it looks like most anyone
could be a good winner. The Daily
Crouch, however, cannot keep down
its ruling passion for letting out its
bile even in the face of a victory that
is complete. The uncalled for and un-
just attacks made on the Y. NJ. b.
A. organization and its officers during
the campaign were excused somewhat
on account of the heat of the fight.
but the attack in last evenings issue
was as contemplate as the author
himself, and comes with poor grace
from one who has himself had the
veil of charity misused for his bene-
fit oftener than any other man in the
community. The election is over and
all good citizens are willing to let bye
cones be bye-gones and accept the YER
dict of the majority with good grace
The Crouch, however, only uses it as
screen to vent the editors spleen
against an organization that has done
more good work for Lamar in the
past five years, both in the line of
boosting and charity, than any other
in the city.
