GREAT DEMAND FOR
 STENOGRApHERS

i Stenographers and Bookkeepers ar. badly needed in the Government of i fce~ dt Washington according to a let l ter received by Draughon's praetica' Business College Little Rock. from tlt l Honorable Martin A Morrison. Presi- dent of the United States Civil Ser vice Commission. He says that the shortage of stenographers and book keepers in Washington is so great that the situation has become acute and seems to grow worse instead of bet 1 ter
 Some branches of the government service are calling for stenOgraphers in great numbers The Bureau of War | Risk Insurance recently asking for one thousand stenographers and typists at one time In addition to the entrance salary of $1200 year bonus of from i $10 to $20 d month is given by the government Mir Morrison says that the average stenographer who enters 1 the government service at $120U year will receive after one months sats- 1 factory service, pay a the rate of $1400 d year. Promotion to higher salaried places k reasonably rapid,- and de pends on the ability of the stenogra- pher The demand for bookkeepers ir government service is equally great
 A shortage of trained office help also exists ill Little Rock and throughout the state of Arkansas Last month Draughons Little Rock College had 104 calls for steuographerS and book 1 keepers They were able to fill only 57 of these positions and after making every effort to secure young men and women with the required training had 10 leave r of the places thrilled
 The need of trained office help k so great that every one who starts a bus ihess training may rest assured of position inst a> soon a> he k able to meet the demands of the business world.

catechism all her life since she was
a little girl. She read the Bible thru
once year for many years. She
loved to quote verses of scripture
that would fit so we'll into the CONVEX
sation when talking with her friends
law coming quietly into her room
overheard her at prayer mention all
her children, grandchildren, her
neighbors, the college president, the
new pastor and the church. Latterly
she talked but little. One day her
son said, mother what are you
thinking about, she answered, "Oh!
good wishing blessings on all
my loved ones" Thus was her long
life-a benediction, her two weeks
sickness apparently painless and her
death just like one going to sleep.
Her spirit passed away at noon on
beautiful and quiet Sabbath day of
July 18th.
BLESSED are the dead who die in
the Lord Yea saith the spirit that
they may rest from their labors and
their works do follow them"

IN MEMORIAM

Mary Alexander McIlvaine was
born in Maghereagh, near London
derry, Ireland, March 9Th 1924. Her
fathers name was Joseph Alexander
and her mothers name was Mary
McIntire. They belonged to the
sturdy scotch stock that helped to
give Scotch Irish the place they hold
the world over.
Mary Alexander, when a girl more
than fourteen years ago, joined the
Reformed Presbyterian church, the
old covenanters that stood so firm
against popery in the mountains OF
Scotland. One of her ancestors was
shot in the famous siege of London
: derry where the brave garrison de-
Tended the city against King James
Ind from Dec. 18, 1858 until relief
came July 18th 1889.
She was married to Andrew Nc
Ilvaine Aug. 7th 1851, She leaves
to mourn their loss eight children.
John. of New York City, Mrs. Mary
Reed, Mrs. Bell Patterson of Topeka,
Kans., Mrs. Rebecco Clifford, of Los
Angeles, Cal, Joseph of Maryville,
Robert of Spokane, Wash, Mrs
Sarah Brown of Maryville, and Will
liam of New York City.
The family left Londonderry, Ire
land, April End 1870 on the steam
ship India of the Anchor Line land
ing at New York in II days-a quick
trim at that time. After spending a
few days with her brother Andrew
Alexander in the city they came to
Maryville on April %, 1870 where
Rev. Isaac McIlvaine, her brother-ln-
law had selected farm from Andrew
Duncan where she has lived ever
since her husband having passed
awav May 3rd 1884. To speak OF
the progress that has taken place IN
the worlds history in her more than
95 wears would fill volumes.
She had a kindly disposition and
was beloved by all who knew her, A
store of knowledge that delighted
Young and old. She was never bet
ter pleased than when she gathered
a lot of little folks around her knees
to tell them stories or to give them
pieces of poetry of which she had ar
inexhaustable store or perchance
teach them Bible verses or help them
with their lessons.
As long as she was able to leave
the home she would go over to tn'
tenant house to teach the renter
children and no school teacher work
ed harder than she. She was hrn
believer in the Bible and knew tn

and associated powers on the
10th of June, 1919, the armistice
would only terminate on refusal
to sign the peace treaty. or IL no
answer were returned on the
23d of June at 7 o'clock. Ac-
cording to International law, as
embodied particularly in Articles
40 and Al of the regulations an
need to the fourth Hague con-
vention of 1907, every serious
violation OF the armistice by one
of the parties gives the other
party the right to denounce 1t,
and even in case of urgency to
recommence hostilities at once.
"A violation of the terms of
the armistice by individuals,
acting on their own initiative,
only confers the right of de-
manding the punishment of these
offenders, and If necessary, in
demnity for the losses sustained.
1t will. therefore, be open to the
allied and associated powers to
bring before a military tribunal
the persons responsible for these
acts of destruction. so that the
appropriate penalties may De
imposed. Furthermore, the Incl
dent gives the allied and asso-
ciated powers a right to repara-
tion for the loss caused, and in
consequence a right to proceed
to such further measures as the
said powers may deem appro-
pirate. r
Deliberate Breach in Advance.
Lastly, the sinking of the
German feet is not only rio
lation of the armistioe, but can
only be regarded by the allied
and associated powers as a de-
liberate breach in advance of the
conditions communicated to Ger
many and now accepted by nef.
Furthermore, the incident is not
an isolated act. The, vburnfng o.
permission for the burning of the
French flags which Germany
was to restore, constitutes an
other deliberate breach in ad-
vance of these same conditions.
'In consequence, the allied and
associated powers declare they
take note of these signal acts
of bad faith, and that when the
investigation have been COM
pleted into all the circumstances
they will exact the necessary
reparation. 1t Is evident that any
repetition of acts like those mrst
have a very unfortunate effect
upon the future operation of the
treaty which the Germans are
about to sign.
They have made complaint of
the fifteen years period of oc-
cupation which the treaty con-
templates. They have made
complaint that admission to the
league of nations may be too
long deferred. How can Ger
many put forward such claims if
she encourages or permits de-
liberate violations of her written
engagements She cannot COM
plain should the allies use the
full powers conferred on them by
the treaty, particularly Article
429, If she, on her side. delib-
erately violates it's provisions.
(Signedl &c. CLEMENCEAU."
