ARKANSAS DELEGATION
RETURNS FROM CLEVELAND

LITTLE ROCK, May 25.-The Arkan
sas Delegation to the Inter-Church
World Movement conference last
week at Cleveland has returned with
some very valuable information.
There are three features of the re
cent campaign which stand out prom
inently. They are;
First, that the campaign for fnan
cial support for the churches, conduct
ed among the so-Called Friendly Cit
izens Group was an utter failure, be
cause
Second, there is no such thing as
Friendly Citizens Group;
Third, that the campaign among the
churches has been a great success
and that future campaigns must be
conducted by the denominations, with
the cooperation of the lnter-Church
Movement for a reduction of the over
head expense.
There were about 500 in attendance
at the Conference, those from Arkan'
sas being State Secretary j. II. klrk'
patrick, E. H. Omohundro, George W.
Reid and wife, r. C. George, Rev. F.
in. Brewer of Texarkana, and Miss
Mckay Of Hope.
The financial drive among the
churches proper resulted in marvel
ous response, but it was universally
agreed that the campaign in the so
called No-Man's Land between the
church and the world was a mistake
and a failure, as there is no such a
zone of persons friendly to the work
of the church who are not already
contributing,

HALL OF FAME FOR TREES
Many Historic Perennial Plants Have
Been Nominated for a Place in
Institution.

1.-THE great Tree on Boston Common"
and 1.-THE Green Tree Hotel" at L.
Claire, Ia, the most famous tree on the
Mississippi river, have been nominated
for a place in the "hall Of fame for
big trees" being compiled by the
American Forestry association.
The great tree On Boston Common
was blown down in a storm February
Is, 1918, the centennial Of the year in
which the colonists gathered around
the tree and started for Lexington to
give battle to the British.
The Green Tree hotel at LeClaire is
we'll known on the Mississippi river,
because to the river men it was the
waiting place of men out Of a job and
looking for a trip. Therefore they
gave it the name Of the Green Tree
hotel. 1t is considered to be 120 years
old.

Importance Of Music.

What an empty place Inc worio
would be without music!
Ever since the creation birds have
been pouring forth their song OF
cheer.
The art of music has progressed to
q remarkable degree. Heretofore peo-
ple have always regarded this art as
a luxury, but the recent war has
shown us most enphatically that 1t Is
q necessity. "Music is the medicine OF
the mind" This saying has been justi-
fed. Music has produced a wonder
full effect on shell-shocked men who
served in the war.
Patriotism and music combine, but
so do religion and music. Does not
music add beauty to church services,
thereby exalting the thought7 Is not
music one of the chief attractions. II

amusement?-Chicago News.

Third. That pupils be given an
opportunity to purchase thrift stamps.
1--WE have established thrift as a
regular school subject in Minnesota
and this we hope to do in the other
states Of the Ninth district in the near
future"
Women's Activities.
OF the women's activities in the
Ninth district, Miss Pollock explains
that the three months thrift tests are
being carried on by many thousands
Of women throughout the district.
During the first month the women
kept correct accounts of household ex.
penses, using this information the
second month to effect a saving and
the third month the money thus saved
is to be invested,-preferably in gov
eminent securities-and the informa-
ton thus obtained will be used as ma.
terial for permanent economy.
Every effort is under way to estab-
lish a connecting link between the
schools and the parents" said Miss
Pollock. 1--WE are cooperating with
the Department of Justice and are di.

LONG IDOL OF SMALL BOY
Famous "Deadwood Dick" Lived and
Died In Full Appreciation Of His
Great Popularity.

Deadwood Dick is dead. His real
name was Richard Bullock, and he
died most conventionally at an age of
seventy-fve years in a hospital at
Glendale, Cal.
Deadwood Dick should have been
the happiest of men. Few men can
pass twilight years illumined by the
glow Of their past. Few men are
privileged to read heroic lies about
themselves which are founded on a
modicum Of truth. Achilles v
read the "Aeneid." Satan never read
paradise Lost" unless he had pe-
rused it since Millions day by the ftful
flames Of his plutonic abode. Sieg-
fried never scanned the "Nibelung-
lied" The greatest heroes of the
greatest lies by the greatest liars have
met their end believing they would be
unhonored and unsung by posterity.
Not so with Deadwood Dick. His
saga was at his elbow these several
decades. All he had to do was to
take down n of the volumes wei
which the boys of a generation or two
ago pored to realize what a great man
he had not been. And all the time
ne had the consciousness that he real
ly had passed wonderful days on
mountain and plain, hauling gold by
stage through perils created by nature
and by man-that there was enough
OF the heroic to justify the modern
Observation-Disclosures Times-Star.

Endurance Test,

The setting for the tale is La Jolla,
a small town near San Diego. 1t is a
place that boasts of great swimming
and many other attractions, besides a
museum. A little maiden, whom we
will call Nellie, was passing the mu-
scum with her mother. Both were
newcomers In the town and were TAX
ing their first sightseeing tour. Nellie
glanced up at the sign in front Of the
misunderstanding shark. Fifteen
cents admission" SO the two passed
on. Two or three hours later, mother
and daughter came back by the same
route, and again passed the museum.
The sign, Of course, was still there.
Nellie could not be silenced. "Is that
man still eating the shark?" she asked
II should think he would get tired."-

Physique Of Country and City Boys.


Under the selective draft law, regis
trants were given two physical exami-
nations, n by the local draft boards
and another by the army surgeons af-
ter the men who passed the local
board examination reached camp.
Analysis of these records of physi-
cal examinations shows that the coun-
try boys made better records than
those from the cities; the white regis
trants better than the colored, and
the native born better records than
those of alien birth. These differ
ences are so considerable that 100, 200
country boys would furnish for the
military service 1880 more soldiers
than would an equal number Of city
boys. Similarly, 100000 whites would
furnish 1,240 more soldiers than would
an. equal number Of colored. Finally,
100000 native born would yield $500
more soldiers than would q like num-
Der of foreign. The Importance Of
these figures may be appreciated by
noting that $500 men is equivalent to
an infantry regiment at full war
strength.

They are large trees. ages old. and
how many years of are and skill with

familiar examples of the %topiarists' art

houses their like may be seen in abun-
dance. They are accepted as curiosi-
ties, survivals of times past when men
had more leisure on their hands than
today.
The shaping of living trees into
birds and beasts of prey, into spfrals,
pillars, cannon balls, and any other
fantasy chosen, still exists as a British
industry. In the Royal Kew nurseries.
