likewise proved that the bigger they

Now since the war is over already it is being discussed in a wonderfully interesting way by the master of minds of the world. Even in "dear old Brink ley" you hear this being dis cussed now and then, and it is surprising some times to hear just what they say"

CITY COUNCIL MEETING

The regular session of the City Council meeting held on Tuesday night was purely rou- tine business, allowing bills. etc.
 A month ago Mayor Greenlee in a very complete message called attention to the Council, the City Health Officer and City Marshal, to the filth con-. dition of the streets alleys, bad drainage, weeds, etc, and ask led that these dangerous con- ditiOns be abated at once. The month has passed, the weeds are growing ranker, the stenches worse, and we are wondering why the City Mar shal will not enforce the law.

ZENT CLUB

On Friday, May 16, the pupils of Zent school had the honor and pleasure of having our dis trict agent, MT. McKill, and our home agents, Miss Fortinberry and R. w. Beck, accompanied by Mrs. R. w. Beck.
 The children were profited very much by the interesting talks of MT. McKill..
 MT. Beck talked to the boys and girls about Rally Day., on June 18th, at Clarendon, which we were all glad to hear of. He also talked to us about how real club members should pre- pare ourselves for the short course at Jonesboro, from Aug. 21st to the 18th.

There is no way Of ac- counting for her colossal mis- takes except by divine interven- ton. The Allies blurdered and dubbed and committed mistake after sickening mistake; that Germany's should have been even more costly is beyond h't- man capacity for error. And so it looks to me as though Prov idence took care of the Allies. Hard headed military men without much religion in their make up have said rhe same thing to me. What happened IS beyond other explanation. The British fleet, the French, British and Russian armies saved civ ilization through four long years of war. But Goi Almighty won it and the United States was most certainly His instrtI- ment to give the finishing strokes"
