/. The sin for which Israel was
judged (v, y. It was drunkenness,
which seems to have been a national
sin (See lisa. OH, Il; rs; Amos
2:6, S, Z; Al; 6, g. Samaria's posi-
ton was an enyiable one. The whole
nation was proud of her The crown
Of pride whose glorious beauty had
been so marked was fading through
the blighting effects of drunkenness.
:. The instrument by which the
punishment was effected ". p. 1t was
to be by the strong hand Of the Assy-
rians. The imagery of this verse
shows that this destruction was to be
sudden, swift and irresistible.
Some Of the evils wrought by drunk
enness:

and SPIRITUAL is soon mastered by
strong drink. (b) Honor brought into
the dust. "Shall be trodden under

city was humbled through intempcr-
ance, 50 does drunkenness bring down
into the dust those high in educa-
tional social and business circles.
(c) 1t despOiIs beauty wv. /, ~.
Beauty is a fading flower" Beauty
soon departs from the form and spirit
of men and women who indulge in the

SIGNING AUTO ROADS.

Phoenix, June 91.-As the first step toward the placing of signs along the Black Canyon route between Prescott and Phoenix, the road is being log ged this week by represen tatives of the Automobile Club of Ari zona. This work is being super vised by Walker Elliott. former project manager with the Salt River Valley Water Users as sociation, who has been retained by the club as consulting and field engineer.
 The proper signing of the auto roads of Arizona is one of the practical activities of the new organization which IS destined to bring it into favor with, every auto owner, whether resident of the state or transient. Signs will be placed at all road forks and intersections, with proper arrow and distance indications clearly marked in black lettering on white enameled background. In addition to these warming sings will be placed on both sides of all sharp curves, rail roal crossings, steep grades, and other dangerous points.

NO SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS.

Phoenix, x,June.-The dearth of teachers in Arizona is condi tion of the past. Higher wages and return from other employ ments are causing a flood of ap- plications for employment in the schools. In this county alone the quarterly school examination was taken by ten men and II women. The normal school at Tempe graduated about 100, nearly all already engaged. About half that number graduat ed at the Flagstaff normal, all women.
 The new school year probably will be the first in the history of the state in which the teaching force and school enrollment have shrunk, because of conditions in the mining camps. At least 100 teachers will be dropped from employment.
 July 1, through an act of the last legislature, the work of vocational education will. be at tached to the office of the state superintendent of public instruc tion. R. H. H. Blome, former head of the Northern normal and of the Bisbee high school. thus will have his vaca tional work taken over by new ap- pointive officer, M l.. Doner. who has been assistant principal of the Mesa schools.

4CHEKA" POWERS
 REPORTED LESS
By Associated Press

Reval, EsIhonia. September 5.--The power of the "Cheka." or exeraor- dinary committee to combat count er-revolution have recently been curtailed, says Moscow advices from independent sources. These are in some measure corrorborated by bol- shevik newspapers. It was the without warrants, secret comdemna- tions and death sentences, which ordered and carried out most of the executions during the period of red terror" in Russia.
 Some of the soviet government off, ficials, considering that the period of civil war and counter revolution was almost completly ended, favor ed the abolition of the "Cheka" all together, it is said. The controversy between those desiring to abolish it and those considering 1t still neces- sary is now understood to have been settled by compromise.
 M Krylenko, a former sailor the public prosecutor of the revolution ary tribunal led the fight for aboli- tion, according to newspapers in the
  of the "Cheka." opposed him.
 The government resolved on re- form of legal procedure, under which the "Cheka's" powers are principal ly confined to cases of espionage and participation in revolts, but without power to pass the death sentence ex- cept in localities under martial law.
 A supreme tribunal" is to be established. This is to act as the high est legal body, as court of appeals, and also as an institution of super vision In exercising this supervision, the tribunal must include a represen- tative of the "Cheke."
 In theory the revolutionary mli- tary tribunals in the army and on the railways are abolished, unless mill tary operations or uprisings render their retention necessary. The func- tions at present exercised by these courts will be transferred to special departments which are to have the right to pass sentence of death in re- gions not under martial law.

Danby did not wait for the girl to recognize him. He hurried toward her, crossing her path directly.
 Miss Natalie" He swept off his hat. "This-this is unexpected, isn't it? I'm so glad"
 Just because he cared so much for her, speech was difficult. He was afraid, too, that she might slip away rom him. It had seemed so long since those happy days of work in her uncle's library. although in reality but short time had elapsed since then.

 She flushed nervously.
 He took his courage in both hands, and said
 But you're not staying at home Just now! And your uncle and-and l-we're missing you terribly. When are you coming back?"
 She avoided his glance. Her little race was sad as she replied;
 Not for long time, I'm afraid"
 He caught her by the elbow. and masterfully-piloted her under the shadow of the trees. They had gone some little distance from the road before he said:
 We were good friends. you and I, and-oh, please don't think me pre- sumptuous!-but I've missed you horribly since you went away. [ couldn'e help feeling hurt that you didn't even say goodbye to me, or let me know when you were com ing back to continue the cataloguing of the books"
 She did not answer. Indeed, her lips trembled so that she could not form the words she longed to say.
 Tears were in her eyes, too. Though it was growing dusk now, Maurice Danby, with the sharp scru- tiny of love, observed those tears.
 He longed to take her in his arms and kiss her.
 I've been through lot of trou- ble," said pretty Natalie, drearily. "Oh. it's been my own fault. I knowt But that doesn't make it any the less hard to bear.'

TWO THOUSAND AT
 B|G SANDY SCHOOL
Great Gathering to Celebrate Completion of Consolidated
 School In Hull District

Tuscaloosa, September 5-(Spe- cfaD-Some 2.500 people assembled at Big Sandy schoolhouse near Hull. Friday morning for the purpose of celebrating the completion of the Big Sandy consolidated school. and en- toying the bountiful and delicious barbecue served by the progressive people of the thriving Hull district.
 The new school building represents the most modern ideas in rural ar chitecture. The lighting system, ven- tilation, and heating are worked out in detail, and so arranged as to give the students and teachers com fort and convenience. The contrast between the old building and the new is so marked, as to make q comparison ridiculous.
 The meeting in the auditorium, was called to order by Superin- tendent Smith, who in a short but most impressive talk congratulated the citizens of Hull for the splendid work as represented in the new con- solidated school building. You know have made possible" stated MT. smith, by providing an educational plant, the fulfillment of the ideals of American democracy give every girl and boy an opportunity to ob- tain an education."
 King First Speaker
 pr. l.. M. King of the University or Alabama was the first speaker on the programme. He concentrated thoughts on Alabama's greatest as- set, the boy and the girl. Dr. King has travelled extensively, especially in the United States, and has studied the different school systems of nine of the leading states in the union.
 Superintendent Burnett of the Tus- caloosa city school in short but in- teresting talk emphasized the neces- sity of the three mills school tax in every beat of Tuscaloosa county.
 Col wolsey Finnell, staunch friends of the American school system and member of a family that has been identified with the educators of Alabama for the last three gen erations. compared the school system of America with those of France, England and Germany.

 The most impressive speech made during the morning session was de- lNeIeu py the much beloved teacher of all teachers, educator of all edu- cators, real southern gentlemen and scholar among the, greatest and over so years young, pr. George Little.
 The barbecue served by the good people of Hull was not only delicious but most bountiful. Fried chicken, pies, cakes, preserves, salads, sand wiches in addition to the famous brunswick stew and barbecue were piled high on the table. It was d day that will long be remembered by all who had the privilege of en- toying the hospitality of the citizens of Big Sandy

Danby drew in a sharp breath.

 She turned on him. A wan, wist- ful smile lit up her woe.
 "Fias he said he misses me?"
 Danby was truthful. He shook his head.
 Well. no Not exactly. But any one can see it."
 A pause.
 He spoke again.
 Hes getting old. you know. And excuse my saying so-you're the ap- centers around you. Fl guessed-I couldn't help it-that there's been some difference of opinion--be- tween the two of you"
 His voice trailed off into silence.
 Overhead, in the branches of the fine old trees, the birds were twitter- ing a sleepy good night. And the gathering dusk flung romantic atmosphere over everything, turning the place to fairyland.
 Tits wonderful out here, after my stuffy lodgings said Natalie un- eXpectedly. She sniffed the scented air and listened to the droWsy tWlt- tering of the birds. It soothed her lonely, troubled little heart to feel that she was wanted
 They turned down a small by-path and found two seats that were com pletely isolated.
 From far away there came the music of a band.
 They seated themselves in silence, wondering vaguely what was In the heart of each.
 And then their talk began.
 Natalie was shy at first But gradually-under the influence of young Danby's warmth-she thawed a little. Oh, 1t was good to have an understanding friend!
 In confidence, she told him of her job.
