vision, are the supreme hallmark of civil

At the St. Louis World Fair, in the Phil
ippine village, there was native school
There inhabitants from the various islands
gathered daily to learn the English Ian
guage.
They were a motley but earnest, happy,
enthusiastic group. Some attended in their
native dress of breech-clout and nose
ring. Others were attired in American
made shirts. Others wore just pants. Some
aspired to a coat, while the Filipino chill
dren and adults were dressed just as
Americans.
Some way or other the completeness or
incompleteness of their attire seemed to
have no effect whatever as to their eager
ness to learn, their alertness or their mental
grasp of the lessons. They were just as
human without a shirt as with one, but
possibly had less pride of possession and
maybe less feeling of embarrassment
1t may indeed be doubted if even dress
suit and silk hat would at once change
the nature and temperament of Moro.

pedition in white fannels, might face a

like that. After moment now look came
into his eyes, look combined of impatience

US abruptly and, as l learned later sought
out the management. "She isn't here" he
whispered to me after the curtain again
rang up, "and they say she's sick"

solution.
"Now, can't do thatl" he hawked back
so hoarsely that 1 told him to keep quiet.

with intentional sarcasm.
He Redeemed, coughed nervously and then
in a forced matter-of-fact tone: "Oh, she
isn't very sick-not sick at all now-be out

look in, only decent thing to do" l agreed
to the appropriateness of the act without re-
ferring to the after midnight calling hour
But what's that in the package% l asked,

Reginald seemed vastly relieved at this

"Oh, that" he said, laughing. ooh, you

her again. You see she had all these

Lancashire Talk Picturesque
Wit Is Brief But Well Favored

There is a peculiar favor about Lanca-
shire humor. 1t comes out in odd sayings
which always follow certain words. If
someone says: 81 wonder!" the retort is:
"Tha'd wonder more if tn crows built i thi
yed, and took thi nose for a nest egg!"
If messenger makes excuses for being
late, the retort is: "Tha'rt rect chap to send
for sorrow-tha'rt so long uppo' tn road"
The man who is asked if he could drink
a pint invariably replies: cay, bud l cud
drink a quart better"
Brevity is not only the soul of Lancashire
wit, but also of Lancashire business. 1t is
said that two merchants, perhaps jointly
worth a million or two, will meet on the
Manchester Cotton Exchange, and that this
will be their conversation: "Mornin'" T"

Greatest Bible Picture is
 Coming For Thanksgiving
Life of the Sauior, With Wonderful Scenes of the Holy City and Egypt, Made in
 Natural Colors

and eatalog among the great pictures of his life"
 Rev. Poppe, a retired Pres byterian minister of Little Rock, says: 'Years ago, as a young man 1 saw the repro duetion of the Passion Play given every ten years in Ba- varia, depicting the life of our Savior. The impression was a lasting one. Never, though did l see a more magnificent representation of Christ's life from birth to resurrection than in Behold the Man." Al most bibically correct, abso- lutely without any demerits, with gorgeous colors, the scenes of the Holy City and Egypt were brought before us. 1 hope every Sunday school child, every father and mother every Bible student will go and see this wonderful story with it's lasting aftertaste."
 The Arkansas Democrat says: !" Behold the Man is a truly wonderful, artistic, col orful production, depicting the life of the Savior in a most beautiful manner, moving with an appeal that is the most ten der and best in the human heart. The eoloring is superb and the characters were cast with unusual keenness of ar tistic perception. It is just the kind of picture for every fath- CT, mother, son and daughter to see. It will leave a lasting impression on everyone who sees this wonderful produc- tion.

GETTING ON WITH
 PUREBREDS

Independence county is fast coming to the front in the pro- duction of purebred livestock. Good hogs and cattle are more in evidence than in any year in our history. By a little eff fort we could become one of the greatest live stock produc- ing centers in the South. Con- centration and cooperation is what is needed.
 In the vicinity of Newark the raising of Poland China hogs is already pretty we'll started, and while we do not pronounce one breed of stock better than another We men, tion this breed for the reason that there is already a good foundation of this breed in our immediate vicinity.
 According to good judges farmers around Newark have some of as good animals car rying some of the most popu- lar bloodlines of the Poland China breed as are to be found any place, moulding the big herds in the corn producing section.
 To start with we have as good foundation material as our neighbor states of the north, then we have the ad- vantage of three to four mon- ths of better weather condi- tions for producing hogs than the farmers of some of the famous cornbelt states. We have the hogs and the ideal weather conditions, and the farmers. What we need is for our farmers to study the ways of some of these north ern farmers and see how they go up against obstacles with which we do not have to con- pete, and still produce the worlds greatest hogs and make money for themselves.
The Newark journal., 1921-11-17

This vicinity needs more farm CTS to wake up and take hold of this industry in which we now have a running start, and do their best to produce bet ter hogs.
 A few live breeders could organize a cooperative asso- citation which would do much to facilitate the marketing of these purebreds at good prices for the farmers. With an as- sociation the small breeder is given equal opportunity as the man who raises great num- Der of hogs and would be able to get his hogs sold at good prices at a very small outlay.
 The Gage County Livestock Breeders of Nebraska started out in a small way and have built up a reputation for pure bred livestock that is wide spread. Besides different kinds of printed matter telling of the merits of livestock pro- duced in their county they had erected near different railroad points ' signboards ' K 10 feet with this inscription, "Wel- come to Gage County, Pure Bred Live Stock Center ,
 The breeders of this Nebras- ka county are unanimous in their expressions that "Adver- Using Pays and the results are that by pooling their ord- CTS they sold in comparative ly short time six carloads of purebred cattle and swine to other states.
 The Journal believes that now would be an opportune time for the farmers of this community to start on the road to success with purebred hogs.

Coming to Newark directly from Little Rock, where it was shown this week, the most wonderful pictorial drama of the ages, and one of the great est educational pictures ever made, will be shown in New ark the 24th as a Special Thanksgiving offering at the Royal.
 Behold the Man. is the title of the picture which is made from the Bible and de piets the life of the Savior in a most remarkable and rever- ential manner.
 The picture contains some remarkably fine scenes of the Holy City, Egypt and other points of interest in the Holy Land.
 The picture is endorsed by ministers of all denominations as it contains nothing that is in the least offensive from de. nominational point of view.
 Rev. Calvin B. Waller, pas. tor of the second Baptist Church of Little Rock, has the following to say of the pic. ture: 'I with others wish tc commend Behold the Man. the picture depirting the life o1 our Lord. It is a splendid work of art and very educa- tional and helpful in giving a practical understanding of the life and time of our Savior. It is as free of any of the ordin- ary objections to such work as is possible"
 Rev. Hogg, pastor of the Winfield Memorial Methodist Church of Little Rock says: q consider the film, Behold the Man. the greatest screening of Biblical truth I have ever seen. The characters live be. fore ones eyes and it is with difficulty that one faces the reality of the street when the show is done. This picture is a sermon that every believer in Jesus Christ should see and one that every person, what ever his creed, will appreciate
