The little Kodak pictures have
brought and are bringing much hap

pictures of mother and the kiddies.
On many an office, library or den

He says he's willing to serve hls country in war, but after it's all over he wants to come home. The letter follows.

WHY NOT PUT NEWPORT ON
 THE CHURCH MAP7

The Independent is anxious to extend every aid within it's power to- ward the upbuilding of the churches of Newport. Perhaps the paper may be able to do little, perhaps much. It depends altogether upon the manner in which the pastors and other work CTS take advantage of the papers willingness to contribute it's share.
 The Independent should like each day to have column devoted to the churches and Sunday schools and aux Hilary organizations of every church. Of course the paper could not be ex- pected to furnish reporters to secure all this news, but surely each organ ization would give some member the responsibility of filling, part of the column.
 Newport is fortunate at this time in having pastors who are above the av- craze. They are mentally capable, possess appealing personalities, and are religiously engaged in their work. With these pastors bending their eff forts toward common cause in per feet harmony, the churches will grow and prosper.
 No town can rise above it's churches. Unless there is spiritual prosperity there can hardly be anything else in a community worth while, and progress will lag. We have good churches but not one of them is attended as it should be- Every church should be filled at each service, and we should like to see concert of action on the part of our ministers and mem- bers of the organizations directed to- ward movement to put Newport on the map as a church-going town, and toward that end this paper stands ready to answer every call that is made upon it.

Of interest to the people of Jack son county is the news that the com missioners of the Cache River Drain age District have just closed the con- tract for the digging of the drainage ditch of this district, which will be twenty miles in length, commencing at Sedgwick, in Lawrence county, and extending into Craignead county, thence into the eastern section of Jackson county The successful bid der was A. V. Wills of St. Louis, the contract being awarded at Jonesboro.
 The work is to be completed with in three and half years from the time the work begins, which. will be III a short time. There are five and a half million yards of excavating to be done in the digging of this ditch, and when completed will open up for cul- tivation a large area of fine farming lands in the three counties where the ditch is cut.
 There is being circulated already Tn Jackson county, petition to form an- other district in the county, to con- meet with the terminal of the Cache River ditch, in order to carry off the water.
