School Notes.

Last Thursday morning the Agri-
culture class composed Of Juniors
and Seniors took a field trip. They
made analysis of the rocks and soils
that they examined. They were gone
from s to 10 O'Clock, and good, valus-
BILE york is reported.
Physical Culture is being introduce
ed in High school. Two periods after
school each week will be devoted to
gymnasium exercises. Mrs. Huff will
have charge of the class. This is very
badly needed in the school, especially
for the girls; for they do not have
the amount of exercise necessary for
good health. The student body has
entered into this intellectually
and it is sure to be a success.
The Sophomores INDUCED in a
glorious but tiresome truck-ride, Fri
day night, October list. They went
through Graniteville, Iron Mountain
and Bismarck, finally landing in Iron
ton about $3.50 P. Ma brood of
chickens in high spirits but physical
exhaustion.
GRADE SCHOOL NOTES.
The third grade has just finished
constructing an Indian village, after
studying Indian life.
The fifth grade has been doing some
very good dramatization work the
past week.
Many pupils were absent from the
grades last week on account of the
d%iphtheria scare. Parents, there's no
more danger at school than else
where. 1t is an injustice to both
teachers and pupils to keep children
out of school unless absolutely neces-
sary. Let's have better attendance
next month.
The boys beat the girls in this
months final spelling contest.
The little folks certainly enjoy the
teeter boards.

Report Of Union Meeting at Des Arc
Continued.

The fourth week opened with such
conviction on the people that men
walked the streets with tears flowing
from their eyes on the account of sin.
Up to this time no morning prayer
meetings had been held, but the peo-
pie began to gather together at 800
O'Clock and would spend an hour or
so in earnest prayer and victory fol-
lowed. The meetings at 2:30 O'Clock
in the afternoons were times of special
rejoicing and souls found God at
every service, at their homes and, in
fact, the very atmosphere was charg-
ed with the Holy Ghost. Old men,
young men, women, boys and girls
wept their way to the alter and were
gloriously saved. Many were the
shouts Of souls redeemed by His
precious blood.
Such messages that fell from the
lips of Bro. Taylor, that mighty man
of God; we will never.forget the Won
derful truths as they were brought
fourth by,that faithful servant, unc-
tionized by the Blessed Holy Ghost.
Resolutions ana confessions were
made by many s5as the Holy Ghost
showed people where they really
we're. Glory to God for honest hearts
1t surely does pay to hold on to God
in prayer.
Such a revival has never been in
this town or community before. Up
to the end of the third week 40 souls
had found God. But thanks to His
precious name 40 more souls were
added the fourth week, making So in
all that found our dear Lord ano
Saviour, Jesus Christ. All three oil
the churches were greatly built up,
there being many additions to each
church.
We never can get through praising
God for the good done in this town
and community by this dear Bro
Taylor. Great will be his reward in
the last day when he can look every
body in Des Arc in the face and say
81 did my best to help you to God,'
for we know both night and day this
mighty man of God was pleading tc
the Heavenly Father for lost souls.

Attorney General McAllister holds
that under the constitution of Mis-
souri, women are not eligible to be
elected members of the General AS
sembly. They could not qualify,
even if elected, the Attorney General
says, and he cites section 4, article 4,
of the constitution, which reads:
"No person shall be a member of the
House of Representatives who shall
not have attained the age of "a years,
who shall not be a male citizen of the
United States, who shall not have
been a qualified voter of this State
two years." etc. Section 6 of the
same article relates to members OF
the State Senate, and the qualiica-
tions are the same, except that Sena-
tors must be at least 80 years of age.

SMUGGLED GEMS
PEDDLED IN U. S.
Vast Sums Realized, with
Women S Aid, for
Soviet.

New York, July z7.-Believing
that women are being employed to
dispose Of smuggled gems, thereby
realizing vast sums for the Russian
Soviet, Assistant Federal Attorney
Walker began a systematic investi-
cation of the smuggling charges
upon which Nils jacobson, a sea-
man, and Mitchell Saffron. Brook
lyn, are being held.
Saffron. Mr.. Walker learned, lives
with Ludwig c. A X Martens, the
Soviet ambassador" and is a clerk
in the Soviet headquarters here.
The connection Of women in the
case was indicated today when
Anna Keinanen was invited to Mr..
Walkers office. 1t was learned that
Federal agencies are working on
the theory that for more than a
year gems have been brought into
the country and sold by women to
aid the Russian cause.
Jacobson was arrested upon the
arrival of the steamship Stockholm
a week ago.
Saffron was arrested two days
later, when he appeared at a room
ing house in Manhattan, to which
jacobson had been directed.
