MONUMENT ARRIVES

The James Memorial which
is to be erected in the near fu-
ture over the grave of the late
United States Senator Ollie M.
James arrived last week. It is
a gigantic structure weighing
"a, 300 pounds.
The monument is eight and
one-half feet square at the base
and is about thirty-five feet
high. It will be set on a con-
crete foundation which is al
ready in place.
The City Coal and Transfer
company have the contract to
move the monument to the GEM
etery but the condition of the
roads will not permit of it's be-
ing moved as yet. The largest
of the four sections weighs
twelve tons and there is only one
chance of obtaining a convey
carry this enormous load. This
is a log wagon belonging to Tom
Barnes Of near Salem which has
been used for moving large boil
ers. If this wagon will not
move it something will have to
be brought in from the outside
to do the job.
The monument was purchas-
ed from W. w. Leland Co., and
they will send a man here to
superintend the erection which
will start as soon as weather
conditions will permit.
This monument will be- the
center of attraction for Crit
tenden county and will be visit
ed by people from all over the
United States. but there is
somthing greater than a mas
sive structure of marble that
will cause Ollie James to be long
remembered in the hearts Of
his fellow countrymen, and as
Ben Johnson says of Shakes
peare He is not dead for his
works will cause him to live in
the eternal present"

Life insurance does more than
merely protect the family of the
insured; it strengthens the
credit of the policy holder dur
ing his life. When a banker is
asked for a stiff loan, one of
the first questions asked is if
the borrowers life is insured,
and to what extent. All organ
izations that extend credit
want to know if a man is in
sured.
SDubbing the life insurance
agent is a game of the past.
Every business man of real sag
acity knows that the only wise
course for him to take is to car
ry all the insurance he can.
There is a saying among life
insurance men that wives some
times object to insurance, wild
ows never do. The result is OBJ
vious- thousands of refined
women have to support them
selves simply because their hus-
bands neglected insurance.
There is no question but that
heaven is a delightful place, but

over endless tubs of steamy,
smelly clothes, and your boys

MAN LEAVES

while he contemplates taking

MAKE WAREHOUSE
OF OLD CHURCH

The Marion Hardware Co.
has purchased the old Christian
church building opposite the
Sisco livery barn and will use
it for q warehouse. They have
torn down their former ware
house next to the Paris feed
barn to vacate the lot for the
new gargae that is to be built
on this site and are moving it
to the new location where they
will use in an addition to the
old church. The church will be
used for buggies and wagons
while the annex will be used
for farming implements.
Peace and quiet will now
reign where the gospel was
once preached only when Uncle
Gabe goes out to get a wagon
or set up a buggy, but there is
some doubt about peace and
quiet prevailing then.
