 NOTES ON CONWAY

(From Baptist Advance, June 24.)
 The editor had the pleasure of sup plying for Pastor Garrott and the Conway church last Sunday. Bro Garrott and his family are on va cation, visiting his people in Ken lucky. We were sorry to learn that Mrs. Garrott's health is very poor. On this account it was decided last Sun- day that the pastors vacation be ex- tended few weeks. All of the church work seems to be in thriving condi- tion. The editor spoke morning and night to good congregations.
 Mrs. L. E. Barton and children are now at Conway, where she will teach in Central College next year. Dr. Barton is also moving his headquar- ters there and requests his correspond ents to address him at that place. He has just closed two weeks meet ing at Benton, and Pastor Taylor thinks it was a very helpful and sue cessful meeting. Five persons receiv- ed into the church. The day congre- gations are said to have been the larg- est ever seen in Bnton Dr. Barton begins a meeting at Cotton Plant Monday night, June 21.
 At Conway last Sunday we were de lighted to find former pastor l.. M Sipes, who is now pastor of Seminary Hill Baptist church, Fort Worth. He and his family have been taking a little vacation Ca very little one) and were spending few days with friends at Conway. Bro. Sipes utterly re. fused to preach, in spite of all en. treaty or cajolery; so we had to let him go. He is this week in a meet. ing with Pastor Keeling and the First Baptists church at Stamps, and Mrs Sipes and the children are with he, people at Lewisville.

Chicago Defender
 Barred by Judge

Pine Bluff, Feb, 14.-Chancellol J. M. Elliott today issued an injunc- tion restraining John D. Young, Jr. negro, and "any other parties" from circulating the Chicago Defender, a negro radical publication, in Pine Bluff or Jefferson county
 The injunction was granted at the instance of Mayor Mack Hollis. It was sought following receipt here by Young of copies of the paper con taining an account of the killing of George Wick, negro, here Thursday February 5.
 The Defenders account of the af fair portrayed Vicks as defending his home, his liberty and his person, and was held to be false in its entirety by the court.
 The killing of Vicks here last week had not the slightest bearing on race trouble. Vicks killed officer Lynn in cold blood, and many negroes, as well as whites, aided in the hunt for him.

Arkansas LaLUs Ban
 Whiskey for Medicine

Little Rock, Ark, Feb. 17.-At- torney General Arbuckle today sent the following letter to the Sunny Brook Distilling Company, Chicago, relative to shipping whiskey into Ar kansas for medical purposes:
 Recently l have had several in- quiries similar to that contained in your letter of the 18th instant, ask ing if druggists and pharmacists in the State of Arkansas are permitted to dispense liquors on physicians prescriptions, provided they comply with the requirements of the federal government. In reply to your letter. beg to state:
 In the first place, you are per haps aware that no act which has been passed by Congress pertaining to the liquor traffic will affect the enforcement of the statutes of Ar kansas regulating the same. Section l of Act No. ST, acts of Arkansas, 1919, reads as follows:
 That it shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation or asso- citation in any manner, to transport into this state, or from one place to another place in this state, or for any railroad company or express or other common carrier, or any officer agent Or employe of any of them, or any other person to ship or transport into, Or to deliver in this state in any manner or by any means what soever, any alcoholic, vinous, malt, spurious, or fermented liquors, or any compound or preparation thereof commonly called tonics, bitters or medicated liquors, except as provided in Section IT.
 Now, the only exception in the act is found in Section IT of the same act, and which reads as follows
 That nothing in this act shall make it unlawful CD for any priest or minister or any religious denomi- nation or sect to order and have ship ped and delivered to him wine for strictly sacramental purposes, @ for any registered pharmacist or physician to have shipped and deliver

TeacIiers Of County
 To Meet Feb. 26
 For Organization,
(By J. E. Manning.)

supt. Fred l.. McChesney of the Marianna schools wrote me some lime ago, 'I am willing to cooperate ;n the organization of County Teachers Association.
 Supt. M. l.. Lambert of the Moro schools says, "you can depend on me and my teachers if the roads are so we can get te Marianne on the day set for organization"
 Prof. w. N. Putnam, principal at Aubrey, replied when spoken to up on the subject of county teachers Association, 'Barkis is willing. We certainly do need little more mixing among the teachers and you can count on me to contribute my part"
 Principal I. w. Blackford at Rondo, said, "If permitted to attend such a meeting as the organization of our county teachers, 1 shall be glad to do so."
 Prof. Puckett at Haynes, expressed a favorable attitude toward the county teachers association. He said 'it seems to me that it is high time we were doing something"
 I am sure that the Gill school teachers will help with the work of a county teachers association.
 There are numerous other teachers among them some of our county's best lady teachers, who have not only expressed willingness, but anxiety for the county association to be formed.
 MT. Whitaker, our county agri- cultural demonstrator, asks, "why can't our county pull off some big educational rally?" It can and will if we all unite and see to it. School board members are willing to lend assistance and cooperation and they should. We need them in this way, too.
 MT. Lambert of Moro promises to make every effort to get good man from the State Department of Edu- cation to meet with the Lee county teachers on organization day. He

IRON METAL KNOWN IN
 DAYS OF MOSES

Iron must have been familiar in the time of Moses. A wedge made of iron was left in the great pyramid by the builders, which proves that the metal was known and in use about 1500 B. C., the Detroit News recalls. Besides in the fourth chapter of Gen esis it is mentioned that Tubal Cain was pioneer in developing the art of iron making and brass working. Brass, however, was a very indefi- mite term among the natives.
 When spoken of in the Scriptures it is seldom to be understood to sig nifty the alloy of copper and zinc now called by that name. The 'brass" tempered for edge tools or weapons of war was bronze, usually a com pound of copper and tin.
 Copper was also known to man. kind at very early period. Articles of copper were found eighty-one feet under the statue of Rameses the Great, which was erected $500 years ago. Debris has accumulated there to depth of nine feet and the copper articles were found, on furthere ex- cavation, seventy-two feet lower down.

 You are therefore advised that in the opinion of this office, notwith- standing any legislation enacted by Congress, it is still a violation of the bone dry law of this state to ship into this state whiskey or other intoxicating liquors except as indi- cated in Section IT of the above act referred to"

thinks MT. c. c. Tasseter will be available.
 MT. J. w Kuykendan, business manager for the Arkansas Teachers Association, urged all counties to or ganize and affiliate with the state association to obtain needed lepisla ton, increased revenues, better sal aries and general improved condi tlons. Thus Lee county teachers you can see that our organization is not desired for local benefits only but its effect would be statewide when we have embraced the opportunity of becoming rating power in the state association through sufficient membership in our local organization.
 The teachers seem willing and the need for county association seems Tn evidence. l have been asked to call a meeting. l consider that the various teachers mentioned in this paper have already called a meeting and I'll only name a time to meet. Alter considering suggestions it is decided to appoint the fourth Sat urday in February, 18th, 1920, at 10:0O a. m. as time to meetin Ma rianna, Ark, to organize our coun- ty teachers and lay plans for furth- ering the education interest of our county.
 The Marianna school board is re- quested to permit the county teach CTS to meet in some appropriate part of the high school building and it is thought there will be no objection to that. It is urgently requested that every white teacher in Lee county be in Marianna on the above date to take part in the meeting.
