BREAD UPON THE WATERS.

Sometime last summer, or maybe longer than that, there came to the home of Tom Hailey, living l2 miles south of Eureka Springs, tramp, asking for som thing to eat and for work The good man, who is badly afflicted, having an eye out, hand off, and otherwise injured extended to him the hand of welcome and gave him work and lodging, although in great need himself, being afflicted as he was, and family to care for. The man proved a good worker and all the family liked him. Then he was drafted and went to war, but before going to fight for liberty and justice of this family and millions of others, he did not forget to sign a paper that in ease of his death they would be pro- vided for, and at the same time show his appreciation of the family's kind ness. The paper signed was life in- surance policy for s10,000. Then he sailed, and while fighting the measly Germans, fell. to rise no more-giving his life for his country and all he held dear. Soon after there came a check for $50 to Mir Hailey, which surprised him very much. He was still more surprised when learned that the tramp had remembered his kind enss and provided for him for life.

EMBROIDERY CLUB DINNER.

That war has ceased was again verified Thursday of last week when the ladies of the Embroidery Club, who have given their time and men- ey to the work of making the boys over there and at home more com fortable since war was declared laid aside their dreams of battlefield and said with Scott, Soldier rest thy war far,s OCT, said it to the thousands who are still living and to the many who are now on the broad ocean on their way to their homes and loved ones.
 What could have been more fitting to show the spirit of gladness that each felt than for the Club to have it's annual dinner and tree at the New Year-a New Year when joy can be uneonfined. Although the plans were made just the week before, ev- cry thing was perfect. Mrs. Roy Joyce opened her beautiful new home to the Club and each member did her part in furnishing the dinner which included every thing that tempts the appetite at the Christmas time.
 The tree laden with it's mysterious packages stood near the fire place, just ready for Santa Claus, who did not make his appearance till after the dinner was served. Numbers were passes corresponding to numbered gifts and as eager children each ans wered "here" when her number was called What fun untying the pack ages and what rejoicing over the giftsl The daughters of the Club, who have so generously given their services in times of need, with the following out of town guests of the Club, Mesdames Earl Bird, Fayette- vile, Roland Clark, Harrison, Frost, Rogers and s.

FROM JAY NORRIS.

The following letter was received by Mrs. Bessie Norris from her son in Germany:
 Germany, Dec. s, 1918.-Dear Moth err Will write you few lines as this is Sunday and we are resting after eight days of straight hiking. We left Eiehen Lux, where we were resting on Dec. 1. and have been hik- ing ever since We crossed the Ger man border Dec. 3. and just now a German lady gave me cookie which sure was fine, she said they were making them for Christmas. We sell dom got anything like that in France. If had lots of money I would get about ten marks worth and eat them all by myself. We haven't been paid for sometime and you see our pocket change is rather low. But I hope to have lots of money when 1 get back to the states. You will get this about Christmas, the next one I hope to spend at home The last two have been spent in the army. This one guess will be spent on the Rhine, no farther l hope.
 We'll mother it is getting dark and have few things that must be done. l have platoon of about 40 men to look after and all are non com's, sgts and corporals. Had 50 when we left the camp back behind the lines. We went up and over through where they had done the last fighting of the war and saw it all, so will have lots to tell. Tell all the folks l said hello but cant write but a few letters as there is very little material up here.
 With lots of love and all kinds of wishes for happy Christmas and a big Christmas dinner. Sure wish could spend it with you.
