Mapping" the Az.

The greatest discovery yet made In
exploring the air Is that the atmos-
phere consists of two layers, the low
or extending from sea level up to TO-.
600 meters, in which there is a steady
fall OF temperature with elevation.
This Is called the troposphere. Above
this there is no fall, and up to a0,OOO
meters a slight rise, The upper layer
Is known as the stratosphere. It Il
actually possible today for an alrplane
to rise from the ground to the bottom
OF the stratosphere, say about six
miles, In one hour. II we want to sx-
plore somewhat higher. say 20 miles,
we install light instruments on
sounding balloon.

At Oak Grove.

The basket dinner was well attended
last Sunday. Sunday school at II n.
M, followed by a program. The boys
and girls did exceptionally well, both
in reading and song, The committee
evidently did its part in training the
children.
After the program, the baskets were
unpacked. Oh, such a dinner! All ate
TO their satisfaction, save a few very
backward, bashful ones, Col. CUP,
Elmer Allen, Mr.. Greenlee, and some
others whose names will not be mem
ton; most everybody behaved becom-
ingly; only, anyone who would steal a
gizzard from a poor preacher. Herman
Fancher was present,
The day was saddened by the fun
eral Of little Leroy Hughes, which was
held at Highland church.
The s o'clock service in the grove
was well attended. Three confessed
their faith in Christ at this service, so
we all went home feeling that the day
was a very profitable one.
Next week we will announce the
place of the baptismal service.

The Wages of Sin,

A lesson the wages of sin" was
written in a New York hotel, early
Sunday morning, July 81, when Sarah
Cowen, daughter Of the late John X.
Cowen, who was president of the B. &
o. railroad, died from the effects of
alcohol and drug poisoning.
Twelve years ago, Sarah Cowen was
a beautiful debutante and an heiress 70
large fortune. When death came,
she had lost her beauty, although she
was only 33 years old, her features
were marked by the years of dissipa-
ton that had followed the blasting of
her romance and her friends and rela-
tives no longer acknowledged her.

vce- Chairman Sykes represented

Vice Chairman Sykes represented
the committee of fifteen in the Inter-
state Commerce Commission hearings
in Denver and Chicago recently in the
livestock case In the action to secure
lower freight rates. The presentation
demonstrated that while livestock
prices have declined freight rates have
not and the producer is thereby un-
justly handicapped.
The subcommittee on orderly mar
keting reported that a careful study
has been made Of the movement of
livestock, particularly hogs, ut all the
eleven leading various markets. Price
levels in relation to seasonal receipts
and the INTERPRETATION between price
levels and seasonal receipts and daily
receipts were presented. II is the
purpose Of this committee Of fifteen
to work out a plan which will have a
tendency to lessen the uneven dis
tribution or receipts both daily and
seasonal as a preventative Of market
gluts and accompanying disastrous
fluctuations in prices.
The subcommittee on legislation re-
ported that II has presented in Wash
ington the views Of the committee Of
fifteen on packer legislation. An eff
fort will now be made to secure ac-
ton on the measure now In confer
ence and IL Is hoped that a law pro.
viding effective supervision Of the
packing industry and the stockyards
will finally be secured.

miles suspended operation August /,
1921.
II is estimated more than one hun
bred thousand persons will be thrown
out Of employment in Northwest
Arkansas, as the result of the shut
down. In addition to the railroad en-
ployees, virtually every town along the
line has some industry dependent on
the road for shipment Of its products.
The cessation Of operation also has eli
minated the only medium for the
movement Of many farm products.
Chickens, eggs and dairy products are
