Some More Good Revivals

Our first meeting was at New Home,
We had Bro. VIII Cunningham to do
the preaching for us. He did as fine
preaching as ] ever heard, and we
had real good meeting for the time
we were there. It's results were about
eight conventions and eight additions,
four by baptism and four by letter
Next we went to Myrtle, Mo-, where
we held our own meeting. We were
there ten days, had ~ conventions,
baptized seven and some more waiting
baptism. The b. Y. p. U's and Sunday
schools are still growing and doing
fine. Last year was prosperous year.
Our next meeting was at Skaggs
Ferry church. We held our own meet
ing here with Bro. Roy Crotts as sing
er The meeting was n wonderful sue
cess from the first service. We were
there eleven days and had conventions
and additions ut every evening service.
The results were 40 conventions and
45 additions to the church, 30 by bap-
tism and 10 by letter. We did not
have a house 80 we had to hold our
meeting under brush arbor. While
the meeting was In session we started
a campaign to build a house and at
the same time started the work. Every
thing is moving fine. We are building
a house 30x60 feet, so IL II is necessary
in later years we can add to it.
The house will cost approximately
three thousand five hundred dollars
when IL is completed. This is a young
church only four years old and has
hard struggle. But thank the Lord
through the leadership of the Holy
Spirit we are leading the way. Breth-
rem pray for us and If you feel like
helping us on our church house please
send il to l.. G. Miller, Maynard, Ark,
and you will get a receipt from the
church. All gifts, great or small, will
be very much appreciated.
Everybody remember church day on
every third Sunday, Sunday night and
Saturday night before. Everybody
invited to come.

THREE AMENDMENTS
FOR OCTOBER ELECTION
CONTINUED from first page.) }

crease their salary. This is only sim
pie Justice and an exercise of business
principles. No business concern would
be willing to attempt to run its bust
ness with the same equipment and
force now as it did fifty years ago.
And yet, that is what the people Of
Arkansas have required to their high
est court with population more than
doubled and business interests multi
piled a hundredfOld. II is in the in
terest of the people themselves, who
are entitled to a prompt adjustment
Of the litigation, that this relief be
provided.
Amendment No. II proposes neces-
sary relief for cities, towns and coun-
ties that are staggering under a load
Of debt with no prospect of meeting
accommodating obligations. 1t does not
concern taxpayers in communities free
from debt, not only enables such com
munities as desire to do so to issue
bonds for the payment Of outstanding
Indebtedness, and to levy tax in
addition to that now levied not exceed
ing three mills until such Indebtedness
is paid. This provision applies only
to existing Indebtedness and does not
permit other Indebtedness to be incur
red. II is further provided that no
unit of the state government shall in
cur indebtedness in excess of the total
revenue for that year and that any
officer of city, town or county who
authorizes, signs or issues script, war
rants or other certificates of indebted
be guilty of a misdemeanOr and sub
ject to fine of not less than $500 nor
more than $4,000 and be removed
from office. The adoption of this
amendment would enable counties and
cities TO provide means for paying
their debts and would establish them
firmly upon sound financial basis,
as the state of Arkansas is at this
time.
Amendment No - is also a relief
measure. Ii proposes to relieve the
General Assembly from the mass of
local and special legislation which has
been increasing during recent years
until II has effectually clogged the law
making machinery. The amendment
will prohibit the legislature from con-
sidering any law that is local or spec
ial in its nature and il will therefore
be given ample time for the enactment
of laws that are Of benefit to the en-
tire people. General legislation has
been crowded out and worse than that,
has frequently been sold out by mem
bers more interested in the passage of
some local act than in general welfare.
Local legislation affecting purely local
affairs is to he placed where il belongs,
in the Quorum courts Of the counties,
the common councils Of cities and
towns and other local authorities
where such matters may be given due
consideration and not run through the
legislative mill as just so much grist.
All three amendments are needed
and IL is believed the people will adopt
them when they are understood.
