EXPLOSION IN GARAGE BLOWS
CeJT GLASS, FRONT

An explosion, the exact cause of
which is unknown, on Friday morning,
knocked out the plate glass front in
the building occupied by the Thomas
garage and set fire to the place, caus-
ing considerable damage.
A. R. Thomas was working on car
and was about to employ an air pres
sure machine in some cleaning work on
same. He turned on the electric switch
and an explosion followed, the force of
same blowing out the glass front. It
is thought that the room was filed with
gas vapor and that a spark from the
electric switch ignited it, causing the
explosion. Fire ensued and practically
everything in1ammable. caught fire.
The fire truck crew was called and
within short time, by efficient work,
the blaze was extinguished. The DAM
age by fire was small.

We are thankful for so many blessings God has shove red down upon us. He has sent us refresh ing rains on our crops, :and best of all three souls were blessed with the mighty hand of God one of them. my dear companion. And that isn't all: several luke warm christians were revived, which resulted in several family altars being established. and may they ever continue, although Sa- tan's great army may launch at- tack after attack, may we as christians sweep them off their feet. And how? An humble prayer is the best way to put them to flight. And remember dear christian friend. as Bro- Moody said. religion needs culti- vation or else thorns and thistles will spring up and choke it out. We have been having some won. derful testimonial services which were as good, if not better. than preaching. Each child of God was a real live wire. We feel that the three-days picnic at Charleston cheated us out of sev- eral precious souls. May we put our shoulders % the wheels of Zion and give it such a spin that IL may ever continue In per petuality. We, of the Methodist Protestant Church, don't claim that we are The Church, " but only Lranch' of Gods great church. Bro. Moody believes in cooperation. In one meeting in which he assisted there were three or four denominations preachers working hand in hand for the great cause. and the re- suit was near fifty conversions. Why can't we all lay down our prejudice. both religion and pol itical. and board the great boat and pull, pull, pull.

 A report on legislation was made by Andy Covington. pres ident of the State Federation of Labor.
 A resolution was passed to es- tablish one bank in each county. To endorse the cooperative pooling of cotton.
 To build one cotton factory and ore fertilizer plant in the state. To appoint a committee to meet with the ginners to regulate prices.
 To pat on one. third basis next year.
 To ask our next Legislature to allow school districts to vote as
 
 much tax as they need to carry on their schools.
 To have our state tax raised to six mills instead of three mills.
 To have our State President sign ait checks before they can be cashed.
 To have our state paper sent to all members in good standing. Charley Roberts, National President. was with us two days and National Secretary Davis was through the convention.
 We had the best state cOnven- tion Arkansas has ever had. The farmers are more determined to do something for themselves than ever before, and it is getting time. There was so much raised last year that they could not find a market for 1t, and part of those who raised the food are starving. It tfcSes wagon load of hides to buy a pair of shoes, and one bale of cotton to buy a suit of clothes. and 1t is better for a man to miss a crt D than to buy tools to make it.
