James Gordon GiIkey, pastor of the South Congregational church Of visit, has explained how he had increased his congregation from 300 l to 1,70O by allowing the young folks to dance in the church chapel Not only do the young people dance | of them descendants of the Pilgrim fathers, and the minister himself participate in the hops
 1 "We dance all the modern dances, 1 including the toddle," said the Rev. MT. Gilkey. "It was the only way to save the young folks from the dance hall and the sex problem play of the local theaters. If the young people want to dance they are go- 1 ing to dance and if you won't let them dance in the church they will go someplace else. Probably to the cheap dance halls. That accounts for the depraved tendencies of our nice boys and girls today, Girls and boys who previously took no in- terest in the church are now among the best workers"
 The Rev. MT. Gilkey said the elders were against the idea at
 the start. but he finally convinced
 them that if they allowed their children to dance at all it should
 he where dancing would be made right

THE LONE STAR HIGHWAY.

It is. announced that the Arkan- Aas State Highway Department has designated the route y.of the Lone I6tnr Highway along the main line of the Missouri Pacific railway from Poplar Bluff to Newport, abandon ing the previously designated route through Paragould and Jonesboro. If the State Highway Department has the exclusive say in establish ing the choice of route of the Lone Star, totally disregarding the wishes and activities of a majority of the people and the decision of the of ficials of that Highway,eSit is pos sessing an authority that few, if any, credited it with possessing.
 The announcement of the change in the routing came as surprise and many are reluctant to believe the report is authentic. At least If the report is really true-the cit afsens residing along the eastern slope of Crowley's Ridge would like to know why the road should be preferred to traverse the mud-route of the main line of the Missouri Pa cific railway, . sparsely settled sec tion, in preference to the higher elevation .nd thickly populated re- zion over this way.
 It is true the distance from Pop- lar Bluff to Newport along the main line of the Missouri Pacific is considerably shorter than the routess would be through Paragould and Jonesboro, but the difference in the cost of building the road east of the Ridge instead of along the main line would represent approxi- mately the total cost of the High way between those two points. It is claimed--and the claim is support ed by competent engineers. it would practically be impossible to build a permanent roadbed along the main line of the Missouri Pacific; that railway engineers have never been able to make the roadbed hold for more than a brief period, due to the depth of the soft formation.
 Perhaps it would he advisable for the local Lone Star clubs along the iRaragould-Joneabor route and the citizens generally of this section to ascertain just why the State High- way Department has become so sud denly final and authentic in it's assignation of the route through a .condemned section. It's peculiar such step would be taken, if it really has been taken Surely. it should be satisfactorily explained.
