after which the crowd Did each other
farewell to meet again that night and
attend services in body at the
Methodist Church, This was a most
glorious as we'll as inspiring scene as
the mother of seventy three years
entered the church leading the sons
and daughter with their host of de-"
scendants to the House of Worship.
A more worthy or noble deed cannot
be done by any mother. Surely they
know and hear mothers voice now,
and may she lead each one of them
to the God she knows and serves, as
she led them at this hour to the House
of Worship. A special song was
rendered, entitled "Will the Circle be
Unbroken?" and many eyes were
moistened as they listened to the
beautiful words and strains of music,
Following which the pastor, Rev. Jos.
H. Jones, spoke to large and inter-
ested audience, taking his text from
John Gal, and closed with an altar
service wherein the presence and
power of the Divine Master was mani
tested through the outpouring of the
Holy Spirit upon his people. In these
sacred Holy moments may the "Still
Small Voice" have spoken SO audibly
to each soul that as they break ranks
and again take up the tolls of this life,
that each has made a VOW that they
will be in the Great Reunion in the
Holy City not made by hands.

Wilson Still Party Leader.
(From the Brooklyn Eag le.)

From the Brooklyn Eagl
In arranging conference with
former President Woodrow Wilson to
discuss the attitude of the Democratic
party in the United States Senate to-
ward President Harding's foreign
policies, Gilbert M. Hitchcock of
Nebraska, the ra mixing Democratic
Senator in the Foreign Affairs Com
mittee, recognizes one fact that is
plain enough to the rank and file of
the organization to which he belongs.
Woodrow Wilson is still the leader
of his party. He is still the counselor
who must and will be trusted. He
has no rival. Perhaps he no longer
dreams that he can make his broad
idealism a platform that the whole
organ zation can stand upon. But in
that idealism is the sheet anchor,
from which the Democratic ship may
drift a little to the east or west or
north or south, as the winds of tenn
porary sentiment may blow, but from
which it cannot break loose without
wreck. We have too much faith in
the sound sense of Senator Hitch
cock, to imagine that they will seek a
course of factious opposition to the
Harding policies, whatever the Hard
ing policies may be. Ultimate re-
sponsibility for what is done does not
rest upon tn shoulders of the minor
ity. Yet that minority is still re-
sponsible for its own consistency.
Consistency with what? Consistency
with Wilson's ideals, of course. The
logic of Senator Hitchcock's course
is inevita BILE.

Barnhouse Wins Fight.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, October IA.
Under verbal understanding
reached by attorney General Barrett,
through his assistant, Albert Miller
and Judge Uhas. G.. Revelle of St.
Louis today, the suits instituted
against State Auditor Hackmann by
DR.. E. l.. Farmhouse, state food ana
drug commissioner, were dismissed
and Farmhouse and his deputies and
office help will be paid their salaries
from last May.
Farmhouse had instituted two suits
| against the Auditor in the Cole Coun-
ty Circuit Court involving the salaries
of himself and his employees, and in
one of them the court had rendered
Judgment against the Auditor. This
suit was appealed to the Supreme
Court, in answer to the proceedings
of the Attorney General in the Su-
preme Court seeking to declare Barn
house's claim to the office invalid. The
latter had filed reply, in which he
asked for $4,000 damages against the
Auditor for holding up the salaries of
the department.
All of the suits against the Auditor
were dismissed and the latter an
nounced that he would adopt the ad-
vice of the Attorney General and al
low the salaries and the expense ac-
counts that are found to be correct.
The understanding here stated will
not affect the suit pending in the Su-
preme Court to oust Farmhouse and
turn the Office over to Chas. S. Prath-
er of Stoddard county, who was ap-
pointed last August.
Gov. Hyde contends that the term
of DR.. Farmhouse expired the first of
this year, while the latter contends
that he is entitled to hold under his
com mission from Gov. Gardner until
June, 1928.

Stevenson Family Reunion.

1t was day of great joy, not only
to Mrs. Ellen Stevenson, better
known in this vicinity as Grandma
Stevenson, who is now waiting for
the hand of time to reach the seventy
third mile stone. of her life, but to the
many sons, daughter, grandchildren
and great grandchildren that gather
ed from far and near to be in a great
family reunion at the home of her
only daughter, Mrs. Bertha Lewis,
about two miles from Des Arc, on
Sunday, October 9th, 1921.
Surely it was a most remarkable
occasion, an incident which will be
long remembered and cherished in
the hearts of all that were a part OF
this memorial event. AS we pause
and mediate upon all those things
that helped to make up-the day, we
cannot but feel that the Great God OF
Heaven was not unmindful of the
comfort, pleasure and happiness of
the occasion in behalf of the Father
and three children who have already
Fought the Good Fight" and are
now awaiting the "Home Coming
for the last Great Reunion on the
other shore.
The Sabbath Morn, broke forth
with smile of golden tints in the
eastern sky and as the sun arose and
looked out over the great expanse of
hills and valleys, and drank the spark
ling dew dangling from the leaves of
the forest and then stretched forth
its great arms of warmth and mellow
ed the chill of the early hours, it
seemed that heaven and earth were
putting forth their best to make the
day joy to all
There was a "stir' in many a home
while the hours OF the morning were
still in their infancy gathering to-
gether the many good things that had
been already prepared to satisfy the
most exacting palate.
Upon arrival at the home of her
daughter, after the usual exchange of
greetings, tables were spread under
the canopies of the large oak trees
and the noon meal was enjoyed by
the large number present, total of
fifty-six, consisting Of the mother,
ten sons, one daughter, nine daugh-
ter-in laws, one son-in- law, thirty
two grandchildren and two great
grandchildren. If it could have been
possible for the other twenty one
members of the various families to
have been present, there would have
been total Of seventy eight in this
wonderful reunion.
Fortunately all Of Mrs. Stevensons
children were present, ranging in ages
Of from fifty seven to thirty tive
years old.
The afternoon was spent in music
singing and talking over past events
and before the hour Of departure fol
town came, the tables were spread K

Republican Congressman Scores Tax
Shifting Bill.

The following extract from the
speech of Representative Edward
Voigt (Rep., Wis., who, with forty
nine other Republicans, voted to re-
commit the tax revision bill in the
House, is fairly representative of the
sentiment of Republicans in many
parts of the Unitede States, especially
in the west:
"Now, then, we have the enormous
war debt, and for the present at least
we must raise at least four billions a
year to keep the Government going,
and that raises the question, How
should this money be collected? In
fairness to all the people OF this coun-
try, who should pay? I recognize but
one principal way to collect taxes,
and that is to make every man pay
according to his ability, and that
ability can best be measured by his
net income. OF course, we derive
some revenue from the tariff, and
minor amounts from other sources,
the collection of which may be proper
and expedient, but what / mean tc
say is that in my Judgement there il
only one fair way for the Govern
ment to raise the bulk OF its revenue
and that is by properly graded in
come tax. Let him pay who makes
the money, and the more he makel
the higher should be his tax.

vote for bill which appears to me to
be unfair to the great mass of the
American people. This bill lifts the
burden from the very rich individuals
and corporations and gives no CORE
spending benefit to those less favor
ably situated. In fact, when the total
burden imposed by this bill is con-
sidered, the proportion of the whole
tax to be paid by the less wealthy is
actually increased. Of course, the
bill is hailed with joy by Big Business,
by the trusts and the millionaires and
mnltimillionaires."

Well Called nchlna,s Sorrow

Chinese records show, once flowed
through rich fertile valley, it's tribu-
tary hills well wooded. Today it is a
broad moving quicksand with a small
amount of water most of the year, but
when the floods come the whole face
of the landscape may be changed. In
1856 this river, which is known as
= "China's Sorrow" flooded some 10000
square miles of the most densely popu-
lated lands, wiped out thousands of
villages and towns, and drowned p
100000 people.
