Our New Home
We are now located within
two miles of Leachville Ark. on
land owned by Hon. S. L. Culler
of Bunker Mo, on land, at . the
present, could be called nothing
bub a vast hbwlln g wilderness,'
which we must at the present
believe that God has spoken of
in thir manner.
"And the work of righteous
ness shall be peace; and the
effect of righteousness, quiet
ness, and assurance lor ever. -
And my people shall dwell in a
peaceable habitation, and in sure
dwellings, and in quiet resting
places;
When it shall hail, coming
down on the forest; and the
city shall be low in a low place.
Blessed are ye that sow beside
all waters that send forth tbith:
er the feet of the ox and the ass.
Isa. 82 IT 18 19-20
For we must say that, we
come hare for more than one
purpose.' 1st from a naturel
standpoint to clear up Mr Cul
lers land and make it a fruitful
field.
2nd. From a spiritual standpoint
to establish righteousness, both,
naturally and Bpirituall y for
there must be a restitution of
all things, which is spoken by
all the Holy Prophets, Bince
the world began. There
fore righteousness, and peace
must be brought to the world
And while the peace proposition
is being discussed by the world
of nations, we in this part of
God's land and country shall do
all we cr.n to set forth, this
great, proposition in our new
home, in living it. And that too,
for the purpose of leting the
world see our good works, so
that they too may glorify the
the great God of heaven.
For this purpose we must say
that we trust, that
our labor
here in our new borne may be
the cause of this icripturo be
ing fulfilled, please read.
"Repent ye therefore, and be
converted, that your Bins may
be blotted out, when the times
of refreshing shall . come from
the presence of the Lord:
And he shall send Jesus
Christ, which before was preach
ed unto you:
Whom the heaven must' re
ceive until the times of restitu
tion of all things, which God
hath spoken by the mouth cf
all his holy prophets since the
world begnn. Actu 8-1920- 21
Yes dear reader there must
be a restitution of all things
spoken by all the holy prophets
since the world began,, before
Christ will come the . second
time.
And this restitution must
bring to the world a covenant of
Let all. thy ways
everlasting peace and the Rlory
of tbo rightoirsness of the land
shall cover the earth a? the
water, covers the sea. And we
shall say that we feel quite
thankful for tbe offer made to us
of our new home' by the Hon.
Mr Culler ot Bunker. And also
for giving 08 pur Business as

THURSDAY DEO. 2Gtb. 1918.
THIS IS WHAT HE SAID.
"I desire to ask tbe attention
of the Senate to some rather
brief remarks touching the pro
posed league of nations. I shall
not be able in tbe time limited,
to enter into a complete analysis
of that great subject, I hope
merely tc throw out a few aug.
gestions which may possibly be
ot some use at a time like this.
"At tbe beginning I shall
breach a senatorial precedent by
reading a statement by George
Washington. I know that Wash
ington is very much cut of
fashion-fHla memory and teach
ings are fading from the minds of
modern statesmen.
Nevertheless, out of reverence
for the past I challenge your
thought to these words by
Washington in the very sunset
of bis life, when looking back
ward through the mellow light
of experience, he surveyed the
history of mankind, and when he
was also able to catch a proph
etic vision of the mighty re
public of today. Let me implore
your attention.
"Against the insidious wiles of
foreign influence, (I conjure you
to believe me fellow citizens) the
jealousy of a free perple ought
to be constantly awake, since
history and experacce prove
that foreign influence is one of
the most baneful foes of republi
can government t Real prtriots
who may resist tbe intrigues of
the favorite are liable to become
suspected and odious while its
tools and dupes usurp the ap
plause and confiileuceof the
of the people to (surrender tbeir
interests." etc.

LODGE WOULD PUT OFF
NATIONS' LEAGUE SCHEME.
Washington, Dec, 21, calling
President Wilson's league of
nations idea "captivation and
aUractlved,'' Senator Lodge,
Republican floor leader today
seriously questioned its prac
tical lityas a working plan to
keep the peace of the world.
Attempt to form an effec
tive league now, Lodge said on
only lend to "embarrass tbe
peace that we ought to make at
once with Germany.
"Intelligent discussion becomes
difficult when tbe league of nation
drape themselves in trailing
clouds.of glory and omit to tell
us conditions to which they
propose to bind the nations,"
Lodge added.
He followed with a series of
questions as to who would be
members of the league whether
Germany is to bo included
and whether small nation are
to have a vote equal to the large
ones. Lodge urged postponement

President's 14 peace terms until
