By Great ReUiUdl

Rev. Norris Greer, district evan
gelist of the Forrest City district
of the Methodist church, assisted by
j. w. Glover, as singer, Rev. Kuntz,
pastor of the Convention Baptist
church, and Rev. M. n. Johnston,
pastor of the Methodist church, have
just closed the most successful re-
vival ever held in Moro.
There were 155 conversions dur
ing the meeting, of whom "a united
with the Methodist church, 81 with
the Convention Baptist church and
large number with the Christian
church and the Land Mark Baptist
church.
While the meeting was held by
the Methodist church, the members
of all the churches in town Joined
in and assisted in the meeting, and
as result all the churches were
built up and strengthened.
1t is estimated that SO per cent
of the business. men of the town
were converted. A large number
of elderly men were converted and
united with the different churches.
A business mems Bible class was
organized, with a large membership;
a prayer meeting and an Epworth
League were organized at the close
of the meeting.

JUNIOR PICNIC

The Junior Class spent delight
full afternoon "picnicking" in the
Robertson Addition, Friday, Septem-
Der "a. The class met at the school
building as soon as the members
had gotten their "eats." From there
the class went to the Robertson Adj
dition in two cars furnished by two
members of the class. One of the
features of the afternoon was the
stunt fence climbing by the class
as a whole. After reaching suit
able place the food was stored away
until time for supper The class
then began a wild chase through
the woods and as result, gathered
a very large crop of "beggar lice
and an equally large appetite. After
several hours of this the bunch par
took of the lunch. 1t was noticed
that, although all showed healthy
appetite, the faculty leaders, Mr..
Schisler and Miss Hively, ate more
than any of the others. After the
class had cleaned the table they piled
into the cars and came to town
tired, satisfied and happy.

Texan Loses $4,000
To "OH Magnates"

Little Rock, Sept. 29.-J. F. Floyd
of Post City, Texas, reported to
Chief of Police Rottenberry today
that he had been buncoed out of
$4,000 by two oil spectators Civ
ing their names as Mr.. Brown and
Mr. Edwards. The two men induced
him to meet them in Indianapolis,
Ind, with the money, claiming that
they had agreat oil investment deal
awaiting him. The men later claim
ed that they bought oil stock in
stead of selling it, and in that way
induced Floyd to come to Little
Rock where they would make good
the loss. After waiting two days
for them, Mr.. Floyd concluded that
he had been swindled and notified
the police. Mr.. Floyd said he mort
gagged his cotton crop to get the
$4,000, being made to believe the
oil would make him a wealthy man.

"Self Control"
Now that you have been told of
the progress of our school, let US
tell you under what difficulties these
advancements have been made. New
err before has the school been crowd
ed as it is now. There are "
pupils in the primary department
and 81 in the 7th grade. Think
of II students crowded into one
room, within two feet of black
board There are only three va
cant desks in high school. How can
our school make a normal progress
when there is scarcely room to ac-
commodate the pupils already en-
rolled?
We need a new building, more
departments, and more teachers.
There are but few pupils in high
school who would not take advant-
age of business course if it. were
possible to do so. The education
of many students will be completed
in Mariana High School, and it
would be an advantage to them and
to the community to have course
in Community Civics.
1t is not the fault of the manage
ing force that we haven't a new
building and more departments. Let
us hope that another year will find
better conditions existing than these

school and rs in high, an increase
of Is per cent over last years at

Twenty minutes each day is de-
voted to physical culture in the
grammar school under the super
vision of Miss King. When the
weather does not permit the pupils
to take these exercises out of
doors, they are performed in the
basement. Twenty minutes is also
employed daily in art or singing.
This year each class in school has
m auditorium period of thirty min
utes once a week. Not only do the
pupils receive valuable training on
account of these periods, but they
relieve the monotony of school life.
A county nurse is soon expected
who will take physical examinations
of all students. Health records will
be sent to parents notifying them
of any physical defects of their
children.

Monqolians Great Meat Eaters.

Inhabitants of Mongolia are great
meat eaters, living I'm some cases en-
tirely on mutton. 1t is not uncommon
for a Mongol to consume ten pounds
of this meat at one sitting. He also
compares other foods by asking If
they are as good as mutton. The Mon
gol puts mutton fat in his tea, which
is prepared with milk from the poor
est grade of tea, pressed into bricks.
He drinks enormous quantities of this,
80 cups a day being no uncommon
amount for an adult. The natives eat
whenever opportunity comes, there
being no regular meal hours.
Water Is scarce in Mongolia, a
few wells along the caravan route
furnishing the entire supply. During
the winter and spring the camel is
the only animal that can cross the
desert and subsist on the dried
up grasses. At this season of the year
blocks Of Ice are carried for water
supply, and In other seasons two large
tubs are carried on each camel, one
tub on each side.

ALL WENT INTO THE BILL
Moroccan Ruler Found in the End
That He Paid for His
Hours of Bridge.

How the sultan of Morocco, Mulai
has been amusedly told.
A close friendship sprang up be-
tween the sultan and an English
dentist, and as often as not, bridge
took the place of dentistry. The
dentist would arrive with his timid
lady assistant, and all his implements
Of torture, only to be invited to sit
down at the table and play cards. The
lady-assistant was very young and
very shy, and was more accustomed to
play children's card games than
bridge. A fourth player would be
found and the ill-assorted party COM
pleted. The ex-sultan enjoyed himself
immensely. He generally won, per-
haps by never permitting the trembling
lady assistant to be his partner. The
points were one franc a hundred, so
no very serious damage could be done /;
but rich as the sultan was, he re-
joiced more in his humble winnings at
bridge than over his many thousands
in the banks. Not a little of his en-
joyment was owing to the fact that he
felt that he was doing" the dentist.
"He comes" the ex-sultan would say,
ito mend my teeth and to take my
gold, and in the end win his francs"
But one day the climax came. The
teeth were eXcellently repaired-the
work was of the beSt-there was no
more to be done but to pay the bill
and the bill very naturally and rightly
included all the bridge hours, at so
much per hour. 1t was the most ex-
pensive bridge Mulai Hafid ever
played.

sYsTEMATIzING YOUR WORK.
Not Because of the Money, But h
Save Yourself Extra Work.

Have you systematized your work,
whether that work is in Office, shop,
store, the kitchen or out in the field ?
Have you systematized it, not par
ticularly because there's money in
it, but to save yourself extra work
tired hands and tired feet? Put
your personal routine doings in the
rome, the store and the field under
a system that you have thought out
hard, and you'll have more time for
recreation, for reading and-for
ioafing. We use the word advisedly.
because for the man who attends to
his life's work efficiently, loafing is
good thing.
The United States Bulletin tells of
the secretary of great trust COM
pany who was having a fierce time
with his feet Came home every night
with feet so tired and achey they had
to be put through the hot-water
bath relief every single night. Be-
fore we we're through the days work,
they hurt, sometimes even in the
morning. Those aches did his task
no good. He wasn't a pleasant Office
companion. He couldn't help think
irg of those feet and while thinking
of them, he didn't think efficiently
on the task at home.
One day, an efficiency engineer
looked over the trust company's
place. After inspection he walked in
on the secretary himself and said:
"You are spending too much time
walking back and forth from your
Office 10 the vice presidents office.
1t seems to me you could employ an
Office messenger, and so save about
two and a half hours of your time
about a mile and a half of inside
walking, and 1 believe that you
would be a more agreeable man to
work with. Two and a half hours of
your time is worth about eight times
that of a messengers full day, and
ell that you are doing is to carry pa
pers to and fro, about which you
have almost nothing to discuss"
We can't all employ messengers
but we can all lay out our work to
system and save our feet.
