FROM LEONARD CAWTHON
- rr n r ra .a s

MT. and Mrs. John Cawthon, re- siding near Sloan Springs, recently received letter from their son, Corp. Leonard Cawthon, who is with the 142nd r. A., a portion of the letter being as follows:
 On Active Service with the Ameri- can Expeditionary Force, February /, 19l9-The sun is shining pretty and bright to-day. It tried to snow all last week. but would melt as fast as it hit the ground. Well, this is the second of February, and we are look ing for General Pershing to visit us to-day or tomorrow.
 Say mother, | have been enjoying some of the best lectures and sermons I ever heard the last week, by Dr. Foster of New York, and believe me he sure knows how to talk. He leaves us tonight, and l think he IS going to the 9th Division.
 Tell Johnnie I have me a little French comrade who stays with me now. He can speak little English and l can speak little French, so we have quite a time talking to one another. I found him down at the Y. M. C. A. one night and took him up to the barracks with me and fixed him some underwear up and put it on him, and we are having him uniform made. The boys all think he is just about it" so he don't want for very much now. His mother has one arm cut off, and he says his father IS a prisoner in Germany, but believe he is dead, as all of the allied prisoners have been released long ago. He wants to come to America with me, but I don't know whether to try to take him or not, but l sure hate the idea of him having to go back home when he has nothing to go back to. If 1 were able 1 sure would bring hlm home with me. l don't believe he ever knew what 1t was to be loved until he came to us. but the boys are spelling him, and l guess l am just as bad at 1t as the others.
 l suppose you are still expecting me to come home any time, and l am still looking for a chance to go home, but it may be some time yet before ing me shrdultsdhMy.T hshshrdluhr I get to start. You are always talk ing about me having the pond to cross, but I hope will never have anything worse or more dangerous to do than that, so don't let that bother you, for l didn't even get sea sick coming over. WAS sick when started across, but was feeling pretty good when got here. But believe me I will feel still better when l reach the other side once more, even If l am throwing up my socks. Hoping to hear from you soon, and asking you to pray for me that we may meet again soon, l am your loving son,

OBITUARIES.
 RAIDER

Another oll settler gone. es lh- deed when on February 26 l. D. Rader of Springdale Arkansas closed hls eyes m death, one of the oldest set tiers of Washington County passed av.av from this life and community Everybody in these parts knew l. D. Rader unless it was stranger or new conner.
 He was born and reared Tn east Tennessee. but the main part of hls life was spent here He was not molly-eoddle or a jellyfish without moral and spiritual backbone, but he was one of those sturdy characters whom you could depend on to do what he could in the cause of truth and righteousness. Whatever he believed he also confessed and lived accord ing to his confession. He was man of good sense and judgment not so much regarding the things that pass away. but rather in regard to right and wrong. He always lived upon the side of truth and righteousness and generally was found in the front rank Of course he was not infalllble, but like the rest of us he could and did make mistakes for the old saying Is true, .sTo err is human, and he was human. but he also had that divine trait about him to forgive and not to keep a grudge He certainly was no hypocrite, but a true follower of Him of whom 1t is written, he in creased in favor with God and man. He was from childhood a stauneh member of the Lutheran church and was well posted in church matters. His main article of faith was that he did not trust in works of righteous ness alone. which he had done but that he was saved by the grace of God alone, through faith Ill Christ.
 His departure from this life was preceded by years of failing health and strength and by months of treacherous illness, but in his sick ness he manifested surprising de gree of vitality and unexpected pa tenee. His wife, children and grandchildren and all will miss him. But We know that he has aways be- lieved and confessed that all things must work together for good to those that love God Hence also his de- parture must have been to his and our advantage He entered into rest and the glory of saints made per feet We want to follow in thy steps to reach the same good.
 ". Cook, his former pastor came down from Independence, Kan, to conduct the funeral service. His sermon was based on one of the fav- orite texts of the dear departed one, Lord now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace for mine eyes have seen thy salvation

MADISON COUNTY GAVE

Huntsville, Ark-An immense cave the largest in Madison county and ap- parently the largest in the state, has been discovered on farm belonging to former State Senator Lemuel Ken dall, situated four miles northeast of Alabam. The entrance obscure and scarcely noticeable, is near Kings riY- CT
 The cave has been explored a dis tanee of five miles, and many other passages opened beyond in an intri- cate and apparently endless process ion. Scores of rooms some small but one more than a quarter of an acre in extent, were explored. There are many stalagmtes, and stalactites Tn every room. Both united in several places, forming wonderful white col umns that stand sentinel like near the remains of strange animals and heaps of human bones For while nothing was known of this cave un- til short time ago it was evidently we'll known in the past and seems to have been used as burial spot in primitive times The sloping skull of a man of vanished race has been found.
 4 swift subterranean river flows in this cave, and is large enough for big boats to float on it's surface. Blind fish are found in it's waters. Yawning chasms of unknown depth render travel in some portions of the cave exceedingly dangerous, and one of the explorers who lost his footing was rescued with difficulty. Many beautiful basins worn out of solid rock are found and these contain crystal clear pools.
 Although remote from the railroad it Is believed that many students of geology will visit this remarkable cavern and read it's wonderful story.
