wrong In a love AFFAIR had embit-
tered him, however, and caused his
misanthropical retirement into his use
less o~bscurity. Reacting against so
ciety, he had more and more turned his
thoughts inward and inclosed himself
In a shell of ~selfishness. He wns the
sole i%nhabitant of his little world and
charity was his servant the only needs
he really believed In were his own
needs; to their supply and protection
his meal were consecrated.
But ew MeKeefrey was strangely
interested. Something OF old sympathy
and youthful feeling stirred In his
crusty heart. He was touched by the
thought OF boyish anticipatlons and
afraid for the dIsappolntments that he
foresaw. He remembered that once
HIS own heart had been warm and
hopeful. that he had made effort for
good and sent out dreams into the
future. There came back to him O
OF the bitter and blighting frost
that had chilled and deadened him, and
there sighed In his soul a faint hope
that happiness might visit him again
In his effort to bestow II upon others.
1t seemed a sweet and desirable thing
to him to honor the faith that was
causing Tim to reach out into the
world for a blessing.
So IT was that there were signs OF
activity about McKeefrey's
house and mysterious arrivals at Nc
Cams house. And when, on Christ.

by association delegates at their recent
meeting in New Orleans. The inter

the half-convinced Tim.

couraged the boy. but at the same time

The neighbors, and especially the
~neighbors' boys, were much interested
in Tins experiment as 1t progressed.
The stock Of materials was limited,
but with friendly help the two wires
and the rest of a simple apparatus
were contrived and the boys imagined
that they heard things as they listened
In. They imagined, too, that there was
an ear at the other end of everywhere
as they sending out their express
sions of desire. Certainly II was well
noIsed about in the nelghborhood that
McCann's boy was scientifically hope
full for himself and family; even the
particulars of his aspirations were I'M

Among others. old man McKeefrey
heard the news. EcKeefrey was a pc
culiar old chap. He lived alone In a
rather dilapidated house on the edge
Of the village and had little to do with
anybody. Once In q while he would
give his Views on the one subject that
employed his thoughts to an evening
company at the corner store, but no
one paid much attention to them. His
one idea was that charity began at
home. and the popular opinion that ia
Mckeefrey's home II stayed there.
There was also a general opinion that
In McKeefrey's home ii was not very
much needed. The old man was not
much on dress and he seldom went
or seemed to indulge in any
OF the non~nece~sities or Injuries of
life, but he vas supposed to have

VARYING I~NDUCTANCE

How Different Forms of Winding
Affect Reception of Long and
Short Waves.

commonly used form OF inductsnce Is
the single layer solenoid. which In

cylindrical form.
The method used TO vary the In
ductsnce of a tuning coll Ia a slide
which gives single turn variations or
q switch which usually varies the In
ductance in groups OF turns. For
very close tuning where even the

 This week three very interest ing meetings in stores have been he'd by the Evangelists. On Tuesday III the store of J.J. Greer X Son with 40 men present. On Wednesday in Srong's Hardware with 37 men pIesent and in Ar rington & j. Fers' store with 55 men present, Oil Thursday. These meetings will be continued next week in Oth r stores and great good will come from them.
 On Thursday afternoon three ear ioads went down to Altus and the Evangeiists held an open air meeting in the town with almost l80 present.
 On Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock a large open air meeting WIIl he held on the public square in Ozark and 1t is expected that hundreds will he present to listen to the fine singing and the stir ring ad ress of Evangelist Steph- ems. Many of the citizens of the town will be present to help.
 A very interesting service is arranged for Saturday night when the boys and girls of the town will slng from the platform several choruses and join in the service Ror all.
 On Sunday four great meetings are planned. At 10:45 a. m. in the Tabernacle Evangelist Steph- ems subject will be High Tide Christianity " At 3 D. m. a Mass Meeting for men will be held in the Tabernacle and a Mass Meet ing for women will be addressed in the Christian church by Mrs. Stephens. At 6 o'clock a young peoples service will be held in he Methodist church and at 2 0 clock sharp a great Evangelis- l tic service in the Tabernacle when Rev, Stephens will speak on Five Reasons why every man and woman in Ozark should be a Christian. He will give the last words of Tom Paine, Voltaire and other noted infdels and every skeptic and others for miles around are invited.

As we come to the close of thi Conference We wish first: to ex- press our thanks and apprecla- ton to Mir. J. G. Moore and the Hi-Y of Ozark for inviting us here and for their tireleSs eff forts bolh day and night to make the Conference a success.
 Second: To thank the good people of Ozark for their cordial reception into their homes.
 Third: To extend our thanks and compliments to the Domestic Science Girls of the Ozark High School for the splendid banquet provided for us.
 Forth: To acknowledge our ob- legations to the speakers for the good they have done us.
 Fifth: To express our sincere thanks to the churches who have lent their buildings for our use and to the Stephens party for their cooperation.
 Sixth: To thank all those who have provided music to entertain us while here.
 Seventh: To thank the news papers for their generous adver- Using of the conference.

Older Boys Conference

The older boys conference met in Ozark Friday afternoon when the boys from the various clubs began arriving. For h e benefit of those who do not know what the Hi-Y, is we will ex- plain. It is an organization of High School boys doing Y. M. C. A work. There are in the state B Hi-Y clubs with a membership of 800 high school boys. The fifth distric conference was held in the fall of 1921 and winter of 1922 such as the one just held in Ozark k. The organization has 330 acres in state camp site on Petit Jeln Mountain near Morrilton. There were 800 boys and young men in training camps at that place last summer. They have twelve college associations. They have organized counties with sec- retaries doing work with boys in rural districts. One city asso- citation at Little Rock
 Twelve industrial and railroad associations in Arkansas. There are twenty five of the leading business and professional men of he state supervising the work The following is brief report of the conference here. There were in attendance delegates, leaders and speakers, ninety. F,. Smith sent the largest delegation though was outnumbered by Ozark delegation.
 A banquet was held at the Methodist Church Saturday er- ening when the domestic science class served an elaborate lunch con. Besides the visiting dele gates and speakers a number 0t the business men were pre- ent, Dave Partaln was the speaker oi the evening. At the openirq 2 meeting Friday evening Mayor Harris made welcome address when he turned over the keys oI the town to the Hi ' boys say ing that if they lived up to thelr pledge they would be welcome to any home in Ozark or our state. pr. Douglass also made q welcome address. Rev. w. j. Faust welcomed them in behalf of the churches of the town.

 some respects of the line that is being drawn by the evangelist as to the kind of lives protesting christians should live and as to what 1t really means to be- come a christian. Rev. Stephens declares that man to become a
 christian must be willing t9 go farther than right abaul face, a turning to God as a sinner and
 accepting Jesus Christ as per sQnaI Savior and acknowledging
 him as Lord and master over ones
 life. Just because man does
 not commit murder. 6, adultery,
 or stea. or lie, does not make him eIegiole for heaven. Jesus Christ states that except a maa be
