ECHOES FROM SUNDAY
Beginning the Year With the Book

Ye do err, not knowing the Scrip tures.-Christ (Matt. 22:29.).
 Men may err who know the Scrip lures because they will not follow their teachings, or because they are naturally weak and will not seek the help of Him who is able to hold them up and give them strength to live according to their light.
 But men are certain to err who do not Know the Scriptures. Their ideas and ideals, because of their perverted nature, are out of harmony with truth. They reach wrong con- clusions; and their lives will reflect their teaching whatever it may have been; in other words, they will fol- low their ideas of right and wrong. As man thinketh in his heart, so is he. For instance, if person doesn't know he can live right, he will not live right.
 X The cause of so much crime is traceable chiefly to two things lack of knowledge and wilful disobedience of known law, or knowledge already acquired. But the chief reason for crime and suffering and failure grows out of a lack of knowledge. My people perish for lack of knowl- edge. The cry of many a troubled soul has been, If I had only known!
 Hence we can see the necessity of using every opportunity to preach and teach the word. Especially should we labor with the children and youth that they may know the truth which is able to make men free.
 The Christian Education Move ment of the Methodist church stands for the dissemination of the truth of the Bible among all people.
 F. c. CANNON, Pastor.

WAR CLOUD
 GRONS DARK
 IN EUROPE Bolsheviki Planning Spring Drive into Roumania. ROUMANIAN TROOPS READY Roumania May Receive Help From Greece In the Event of
 Hostilities.
RoUMANIAN TROOPS READY

Paris, Jan. 5.-That the Bolsheviki are planning big spring drive into Roumania and Galicia is the belief of military experts here.
 Recent developments along the western frontier of Russia have con- vineed the critics that the soviets will drive into this territory as soon as the weather permits.
 A new European war, with various nations dragging one another into war is seen as a consequence of these operations.
 Huge concentrations of Red troops have been bulked against the Bessa- rabian frontier which was recently assigned to Roumania in the parti- tition made by the allies.
 Roumania was recently admitted to membership in the league of na- tions and the question arises will the leaque protect it against the on- slaughts of the Red armies.
 The fear that other nations are toppling on the brink of war has resulted from the realization that the Bolsheviki have now linked them selves with Turkey through the crush ing of Armenia.
 The Turks are armed and still in I the field, protesting against the Turkish. boundary as established by the allies, and it is believed they could be easily led.
 Roumania is soon to form family alliance with Greece through two marriages between members of the royal houses and may be able to count on the support of Constan- tines troops in the event of war.
 With these two nations afield there is every possibility of new Balkan explosion.
 France is openly preparing to aid Poland in case of a Bolshevist at tack on that country and large credits have been voted for that purpose. France, through its alliances, may be able to pull other nations into war
 Roumania has 100000 trained troops ready for quick action in case of an attack, and it will not surprise those in touch with the situation to see an explosion at any minute.

EVERY TOWNSHIP ASKED TO SEND DELEGATES TO CON-
 FERENCE

l have been urged to apoint dele- gates to attend the Statewide confer ence of farmers, planters, merchants and bankers called by the governor to meet in Little Rock on Januafy 18th and 18th.
 This meeting will have strong influence in insuring sound farming, merchandising and banking in 1921 and it is important that every town ship take part in this conference.
 The citizens of each township know the most successful, who are good and safe advisors and I am go- ing to ask the people in each town. ship to get together and select one or more delegates to attend this con- ference. The expense will be small and if each citizen would contribute small amount toward defraying the expenses of their delegates it. would cost each one very little and enable them to learn first hand just what the leading business men of the State think of the present situation as special consideration will be given to what crops to raise for 1921, the acreage that should be planted to each crop, and how the farm and business operations of 1921 can be financed.

MINSTREL PLAYS TO CROWDED
 HOUSE

The minstrel show given here two weeks ago by the members of the Rison Band was carried to Bearden Saturday evening, where they had such large crowd that the building would not nearly accomodate them.
 Many people who saw the show here went to Bearden to see and hear them again. This is a splendid show by all home talent and our band is one of the best in South Arkansas.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

have put the word assurance" In the
place Of the word substance"
Substance" seems to me the bet
ter word because from its derivation
1t means literally ito stand under"
and that means foundation. In other
words, Faith is the foundation OF
things hoped for.
Since the present moment Is all we
have and all that we are assured
Of the future must be altogether a
matter Of hope. and hope depends
entirely on faith.
Faith is not credulity.
The man who hopes fer the i'm
possible cannot have faith In his
hopes. Genuine faith is based on truth
which is Interchangeable and everlasting.
So long as there is life there is
faith as well as hope. Perhaps
sometimes our faith may lessen be-
cause experience shows 1t to have
been wrongly placed. But lose faith
we cannot, and our effort always
should be to strengthen and sustain
| 1t.
Faith and hope are our mental
crutches and the lamer we are the
more we need them.
How foolish 1t would be for us.
who are at best, in ourselves. so feeble
and helpless. to throw away the things

You have not lost faith. You have

given to all Of us and the darkness
frightens and overwhelms you.

THE WOODS
By DOUGLAS MALLocH
THE WANDERERS.


A LITTLE church through dusty
Al trees
Raised up its wooden spire,
One Of religions purities
Amid our mortal mire,
And one there came to open door
Made timid by his sin,
Made timid by the mark he wore,
And dared not enter In.
The while he paused he heard a
whir-
Beside him trembled down
Another outcast wanderer,
The swallow Of the town.
1t fiuttered through the open place.
1t mounted to the choir,
Within the simple house Of grace
Poured forth Its notes Of fire.
And he who lonely fingered heard
And something fell away;
He followed after singing bird
Where sinners kneel to pray.
Yea. there the old remembrance died
And there the new began;
For soon they worshiped side by
side
The swallow and the man.

you there that he will see that you

AS you go up in the elevator you
have faith In the machinery that
hauls you from the ground up into

You go TO work and for six d"ys
you labor with faith that at the end

You have faith in nature, In to-
