goes the second and third time, he
becomes the mark of jeers and the
grand dame and the big man wonders
who II is that dares invade the sacred
precinct where he worships. Can one
be blamed for leaving the church
that gives him no welcome?
Several years ago, a widow with
two daughters moved from a small
town to one Of che leading cities in the
south. This woman, moved solely for
the purpose Of being near D. Jewish
house Of worship.
One Of the daughters held a college
degree. They were poor. This moth,
er in Israel was the daughter Of a
rabbi. She yearned for Jewish COM
panions. She yearned to see her
youngest daughters worship in q
Temple.
The poor woman had wealthy broth
ers who were known in the city where
she lived. Those brothers were
friends Of the rabbi Of the leading
congregation. The brothers had mon
ey, the widow had none. The poor
woman and her two daughters for
several Satbaths attended the temple
and were objects Of sighting remarks
by members Of the congregation, al
though they were not objects Of char
ity, neither did they seek charity, but
only sought Jewish companionship
and friendship which they did not re-
ceive.
Did that noted southern Jewish rabbi
and he is noted among the brethren,
or any Of his congregation welcome
or speak to tina poor woman and her
two daughters at any Of the services?
No.
They met Christians, Christians in
vited them to worship with them, they
accepted the invitation. Result, they
visited the Christian church not more
than twice, before the pastor Of that
church gave them a welcome. Friend
ships sprung up. The younger Of the
daughters, the one who held the col
lege degree, was invited to affairs. she
became identified with the Sunday
School as teacher, and although the
mother never wavered from the faith,
the two daughters whom she sought
to lead to the faith became Christians.
As time went on, the mother became
III. In stead Of Jewish friends being
around her when she said Schmai Is
rael, a Christian minister closed her
eyes. The two daughters becoming
Christians hurried on her death. She
died heart-broken.
Her last request was to be buried
beside her deceased husband in the
Jewish cemetery. The wealthy broth
ers came to pay their last respects to
their beloved sister. That Holy ~
rabbi and Holy ~ Jews who wor-
ship the Golden Calf more than God
and who think a little charity doled
out covers their sins, were overly anx-
ious to share the grief Of the wealthy
brothers who loved their sister. They
were nice to the family. They sent
flowers to the dead, when they refus-
ed companionship and sympathy for
the living. That poor woman lying
in her coffin could not appreciate the

Little Rock, Oct 24-The site for the first annual Arkansas state fair and exposition is being cleared and appearance. The portable frame buildings are being erected and the grounds and placed in position in read mess for the exhibits. General Man ager Berger has established his head quarters or the grounds and is giv- ing the preliminary arrangements his personal attention.
 The choicest of exhibits shown in the various county and district fairs are being sent to Little Rock for ex- l Ihibition here. In every quarter of the state the liveliest interest is be- ing manifested by the people. For the first time in the history of Ark ansas there is to be held a genuine state fair, in which every county is expected to have a part.
 Conditions are most suspicious for the fair, which is to be held November 11-19. It is being promoted by the business men of Little Rock, who have raised an ample fund for the purpose of paying liberal premiums and meet ling the heavy expenses consequent up- on the holding of the fair. It is not a temporary project, but it is the ann bition of those who are promoting it to make it an annual affair that will compare most favorable with the fairs being held in Dallas, Memphis and elsefhere. The management secured from the state the privilege of hold ing the fair or a tract of 65 acres lying west of the deaf mute institute. lit is most attractive site on high. rolling land and convienently located to the various transportation lines.

MT. Rogers said he thought the flagman was joking and made iocd- lar response. "I'll fix you when you get out, he said the flagman told him,

 Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct. 24.-This city, where the first reunion of the United Confederate Veterans Associa- tlon was held on July 1, 1890, again will receive the veterans in annual en- campment on October 25, and not wlthstanding a recurrence of the yearly predictions that This will be the last gathering of the Confederate army" the campaign for the 1922 re- union is already under way. Savan- nah, Ga, whose city council has ap- propriated S12,000 for the purpose of entertaining the old soldiers, was the first to enter the field for the honor.
 Although time has dealt kindly with the Confederate veteran, each reunion has made it's apparent that his vitality is surrendering and ef- and towns to send as many of them forts are being made in many cities to this years reunion as possible At lanta, Ga, has undertaken the task of raising a fund of S5,O0O with which to defray the reunion expen- ses of every dependent veteran in the Atlanta district. Many other communities have adopted similar methods to swell the ranks when the gray army parades the streets of Chattanooga this month.
 While the veterans parade each year gives a pathetic touch to the gathering, the brighter side of the reunions invariably predominates The social events always are an out standing feature. Commanders of Departments. divisions, brigades and camps appoint sponsors and maids of honor and bring them all to the en- campments. The veteran always is the patriarch of the assemblage and the honored guest of all occasions. Dancing the Virginia Reel is one of his delights, and many still are able to go through the steps of the more modern dances. Frequently the young CT set takes back seat to permit the old soldiers and their wives to dance the polka, the two step or the "round" " waltz.
