Pray that the peace that may come will, be a peace of which heaven will approve. Impare God especially for the health of this our city, that the churches might soon throw open their doors to receive the people, who are anxious to humble their hearts before a merciful God. 5.—Son, "I Need Thee Every Hour" (One verse.) The passage of Scripture contemplated for this morning is the sixth Chapter of Matthew, from the ninth to the thirteenth verses. This is one of the most familiar passages in all the Bible this is a passage that all of us know from memory, and the danger is, when we know a passage from memory, we think we know all there is to be known about it. This paragraph is the richest literary gem ever given to man. There are phrases contained in it, that touch every phase of human life. The author of these lines was Divine. Let us consider these phrases as briefly: "OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN." Here we have the relation of a father and his child—a most tender relation. This is one of the main truths that Christ established here on earth—that God is our Father, and he preached than over and over again. One of his first utterances when a boy was to the effect that, "I must be about my Father's business;" one of the last words uttered on the cross was, "Father into thy hands I commend my spirit," on of the first words after leaving the tomb, "Tell my disciples that I go to your Father and to my Father;" his very last words on earth, with his feet on the ascension clouds, he said to His disciples, "I will send you the promise of the Father." This prayer teaches the fatherhood of God and if God is our Father, then we must be brothers. The first line of this prayer teaches the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Thomas Jefferson, that peerless Virginian, wrote more wisely than he Out of the high rent district. Better Hats for less money. Yes, it certainly is true that Miss Eva is again delighting the ladies with beautiful Hats. If you are experiencinghat trouble call and let her assist you. Millinery Store CHBILLIG, Prop.

VOL 18 As the eleven o'clock bell is sounded, all the members and friends of the church are asked to observe the quiet hour, in their homes, from eleven to twelve; and carry out this order of service: 1—Doxology. 2—A sentence prayer, by all who are present. 3—Song, "Jesus Lover of My Soul" 4—Scripture reading, 1 Samuel, fifteenth chapter. This Scripture shows the attitude of God in Old Testament times, regarding the people who insisted upon retarding the growth of righteousness in the earth. Every true American should read this passage and understand that it is the desire of God to slay utterly, those who would retard the growth of righteousness on the earth today. This Scripture teaches us that God will not be pleased with us, if we stop short of a complete victory on the one hand, and a most crushing defeat on the other. Because saul did not carry out the order of God, the kingdom was taken from him and given to another; and if we do not at this time, put down autocratic rule and military imperialism, as in the days of old, God will take from us the spirit of freedom—Democracy and Equality. Our enemies have been fighting to tear down the principles for which Christ died to establish, and it seems that Providence has given it over into our hands, largely, to see that righteousness does not perish from the face of the earth. This chapter warns us to "SLAY UTTERLY." Song, "Jesus Lover of My Soul" 4—Scripture reading, 1 Samuel, fifteenth chapter.

Pray especially for the suffering, stricken and bereaved in our country; for those who are made homeless by devastating fires; for those who are not appalled by the cruel, also, that god will bless with sound body and mind, our chief executive, that his utterances may continue to be true gems of a manliness as they have ever Cecil Fry HOT SPRING ECHO knew, when he said, "All men are created free and equal." It is the Divine will that all men, before God should stand upon a platform or borrerhood. God hasten the day when this truth will be recognized and realized. told if the Sun shall make us free, we are free indeed. His praise to our great liberator, who nugered that we might be free who became poor that we might be rich; who died that we might live, took the sting out of death and the victory Wanted-Peace Regardless of the fact that since pref. R. C. Barrow set "HALLOWED BE THEY NAME." Here e have a warriorhi and his God. The body of man gas come up through the laws of evolution just like any other member of the animal kingdom, but somewhere during the ages, the body of man, unlike any other creature, was kissed by a Divine breathing and man became a living soul. The Hebrew word for man simply means, "Earth:" the Greek word for man, means "Animal with a window above" and through that window the super-animal—Mar—looks to God; and every man whether he wants to or not worships; for his very soul, there is a crying, aching void that this world can never fill. Let not the window of the soul be besmeared by the stain of sin, but let the soul in deepest reverence say, "Hollowed be Thy name." "THY KINGDOM COME." Here we have a king and his subject. Not an autocat and a serf, but a king more in the sense of a protector, one who knows every use and desire of his subjects and as ever pleased to honor them; and to those who overcome, he has promised crowns of righteousness and thrones to sit upon. The earthly subjects of this king are his heirs and joint heirs to his only bagotten Son. Rejoice, then, if you are a chilts or the king, for he is indeed, "rich in nouses and lands and holdeth the wealth of the world in his hands." "THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN." Here we have a master and his slave—a master whose will is always benign; a master whose purposes are always right; a master who says, "Go into my theeyard and work and I will pay thee what is right," a messor who is the rewarder of them that diligently seek Him: a master, who when his subjects went astray, sent His Son, to restore them, even at the pell of His life. "THY WILL BE DONE." Oh, that we could trust his will implicitly and say in the language of another, "not my will, but thine be done." "GIVE US THIS DAY OUR CALYM BREAD." Here we have a ben factor and a beneficial. Bread not only for the body, but food for the soul, also. He sends his sunshine and rain upon the just and quiet. He permits, his earth to yield her incense to all mankind and he promises the soul, hidden manna. Daniel, a giant at player, fed his soul from Heaven's table, just as often as he fed his body from the king's table. We are cold that he opened his window and passed to God three times a day. Daily bread is what, we plead, we do not pray for the boarding of this food for months or years, but Lord just for today, for thy bread do we pray. Blood of heaven, bread of heaven" Ford me "I will want no more." "FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASS US AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US." These phrases are inseparably connected, and what God hath joined together, at no man put asurer. A near that is too calloused to send forth forgiveness is also too hard to be penetrated by God's forgiveness. Hence in order to be forgiven of God we must forgive our fellow man. No man can ever be great whose soul is being burned out of him by a spirit of revenge and hate. Paul, the greatest exponent of the Christian Saint, gives us the key to the secret of his success. He says, "Forgetting the things that are behind, I press on." To forget is one of the hap- factual factuities with which a human being is endowed; and one of the things that we must forget, is our hurts. God teach us to forgive. "LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION," Here we have a pilgrim and his guide. A man that is sure that he is God led, need never fear, for he knoweth all the way. Our eyes are bedded and cannot see, but a short distance at a time, but his eye is every place beholdling the evil and the good. David said "He loads us by still waters and green pasurs." When God leads no evil can some upon us for we seeth all. Oh, for a spirit it easys. "Where he leads me I will follow, I'll go with him all the way." "BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL FOR THINE IS THE KINGDOM THE POWER AND THE GLORY FOREVER." Here we have a captive and his deliverer. Man in an unguarded moment allowed satan to come in and make a captive of him. The law had to be satisfied, justice had to be apposed and God had to be honored. The Son of God, the merciful Christ satisfied all of these claims and the captive is free, secured by a bond, written in the heart's blood of Jesus and we are UNCLE SAM THE LID'S DOWN! FAMILY SUGAR BOWL U. B. Food Administration. OBEY ORDERS! told if the Sun shall strike us free, we are free indeed. All praise to our great liberator, who nungered that we might be foe who became poor that we might be rich; who died that we might be lost, took the sting out of death and the victory from the grave; and proclaimed eternal freedom for all who put their trust in Him. 8—Song, "Guide Me, Oh, Thou Great Jehovah." Church Column COTHELL CHAPEL C. M. E. By Rev. W. Conway Smith, D. D. In view of the fact that our annual conference will convene at Fort Smith, Ark., on Nov. 6th and we have the greater part of our annual conference claims to raise between now and the opening of the annual conference. I took this method to say to the members and friends of Cottrell Chapel that having the time that our church doors are closed on account of Spanish influenza, you are urged to be governed by the following suggestions: Each member and fronts are requested to come to Cortell Chapel parsonage (in the parr of church) 410 East Grand Avenue on Sunday, October 29th, beginning at 11 a.m. and continuing all day, and pay your weekly assessments and your dollar money, and receive a collection envelope for the individual rally for conference arrangements to take place on the fourth Sunday in this month. Each member will report his individual envelope for this rally at the parsonage on the fourth Sunday. The past week, one step will be at the parsonage all day Sunday. The other officers will make a house to house canvass. The pastors send greetings to all the members of their churches and wish that they remember their churches in prayer. If they can't go up to the house of the Lord on tomgrow in body they can at their homes meet in spirit and worship gether for good. Dezcon Reed of Eureka church, sends a special plea to his church to pray that they may be able to enter upon large things for the reopening of the church when the closing order is recalled. Dr. G. B. Ashford sends greetings to members of Visitor's Chapel and says remomber church and conference claims. KILLED BY TRAIN. Mr. Joe Porter, a former well known resident of this city was run down and killed by a train at Nashville. Tuesday. The remains were shipped to this city for burial by the Warren Undertaking Co. UNCLE SAM Wanted-Peace. Regardless of the fact that ever since Prof. R. C. Barrow set foot in Hot Springs and assumed the duties of the principship of Langston School, there has been a continual uproar in school matters and the school children have been the chief sufferers, the Echo representing the ultra-conservative elements of colored census, has refused to "take sides" with any faction or to enter into any controversy growing out of school affairs, but has left matters to be adjusted by superintendent and school board. It seems, however that the good Prof. has been able to "pull the wool" over the board's eyes as Barrow up to now has found some avenue of escape from the very frequent and peculiar situations in which he has been involved. This week in direct violation of the orders of the board of health. Barrow is alleged to have disregarded constituted authority by teaching a class in the school building, thus violating the law which strictly prohibits congregating in public institutions and thereby endangering the public health and was called before the police authorities to explain this erratic action. We feel certain of the fact that the School Board knew nothing of this matter, but why the Board continues to wink at such irregularities, and "puts up" with Barrows' "peculiar stuff" is beyond public comprehension. With Prof. Barrow it must have been a case of finance for his genius for extracting money from school patrons, can scarcely be denied as since his tenure of office it has been more expensive to send children to Langston school than to some private institutions where tuition is paid and the nickels and dimes extracted from parents for one thing and another amounted to a very considerable sum. We do not think the Board knew about all of these financial requirements. A few weeks ago Mrs. S. B. Ashcraft, one of the respected women of our city, appeared before the Board to offer grievance for mistreatment by Mr. Barrow. It seems that last year Mrs. Ashcraft paid Barrow a regular sum, monthly, for the privilege of serving lunches to school children. For some reason Mr. Barrow decided that Mrs. Ashcraft would not hold the concession this year and charged that her cooking was unsanitary and service unsatisfactory. This charge so mortified this good lady that she appeared before the Board, believing at the time that the money which she had been paying had been going to the board. Againn the Board knew nothing about this arrangement. A seeing lady visitor, here from some part of the state, is alleged to have paid $2.00 per month tuition all during last year and had resumed payment this year, but becoming ill, her mother applied to the principal for the return of $18.00 and after some clingable argument, succeeded in obtaining a check for $12. The mother went to the president of the Board with the matter and he apparently knew nothing of the matter. These things, coupled with Mr. harrow's alleged bullying tactics practiced upon teachers and threats against children have gone far enough, while the colored citizens at large appreciate the Langton school building, its excellent equipment and the apparent interest of members of the school board, they are tired ```markdown ``` of this continual uproar, knowing that under such conditions the educational interests of their children are not being properly served, and for Langston School to reach the stage of smooth sailing and efficiency which this school should reach, the Board must not accept Mr. Barrow's words, supported and supplemented by the contentions of a few of his satellites, but must recognize the fact that under this smoke there is smoldering a bed of public fire and it is not enough to dismiss complaints with mere statements of misinformation concerning such matters, but colored citizens are deeply interested in their school situation and it is a matter of general desire that an end be put to such irregularities as may exist and that such pace may come to this institution as will enable the children to get therefrom, in fact, as well as in name, the basic principles of true education which this institution should give. We have never presumed to criticize Mr. Barrow's intelligence; it is the financial methods which interest us as they seem to interest him, for certainly he seems to have an eye on the wheels' a tendency which if pursued is certainly going to make him Mr. Wheelbarrow and cause him to roll to other parts. BRAD O. SMITH For Sheriff. The. Echo is authorized to announce Brad O. Smith. Democratic nominee for re-election as sheriff of Garland county in the general election of November 5th. It is hardly necessary to write an introductory of Mr. Smith to the voters of Garland county. The efficient service which he has rendered and the good record which he has made, has brought him in close touch with the people and has gained for him not only the respect and confidence of the entire commonwealth, but has gained for him the friendship of citizens of every class, creed and color. Brad Smith has come nearer harmonizing the various political cliques and factions of Garland county than has any man who has ever graced the office of Sheriff. Criticisms of his official record and conduct have been few, if any, and it is the concensus of opinion that a man more adaptable to the local situation could hardly be found within the confines of Garland county. He is the personification of kindness and courtesy, yet fearless and impartial in the performance of his official duty. His record as a business and executive ability is beyond question. During his tenure of office, Mr. Smith has surrounded himself with deputies representing the best type of our local citizenry—men who have helped our good sheriff to maintain his office up to the highest standard. Colored citizens have found in Brad Smith an ever ready friend. Without the least discrimination, he has given them the kind consideration and service which has been given to the white element of our citizenry. Among them he has some of his strongest supporters, who believe in his mand will support their belief with their votes. There has not yet been an occasion when Mr Smith has not striven to give the public what the public wanted. He has done it in his characteristic and manly way. More than this could not be asked or expected of any man. Taken all in all, and viewed from every standpoint he fully measures up to the required standard. His continuance in office means peace and prosperity for Garland county. There is little doubt of the fact that Rosece C. Lanham is going to make a great race for Constable of Hot Springs Township. Mr. Lanham is finding great favor with the people because of the fact that he is known to be a "square man," whose clean record as a private citizen ability as a business man and fitness every way entitles him to the just consideration of every vote of Hot Springs township. He has never held office in the county and has never aspired for an official position, but at the solicitation of friends he consented to enter the constable's place. Mr. Lanham is a man broad in his views and believes that public service should he rendered strictly along conscientious lines. His list of admirers and supporters grow larger and stronger every day and new friends are easily made of those with whom he comes in contact. As a business man of years or rescence here Mr. Lanham has strong business backing. His friends are confined to neither class or color. He will receive a strong vote on November. 5th. THOS. J. BLEDSOE For Sheriff. The Echo is authorized to announce Thos. J. Bledsoe as a candidate for Sheriff of Garland County subject to the votes of the people in the general election of November 5th. There is hardly a more popular citizen in both city and county than T. J. Bledsoe. His friends are not confined to any political party, class or race. He is known as a friend to the people and the people are friends to Bledsoe. When he entered the sheriff's race before, Mr. Bledsoe received a majority of votes and was duly commissioned to serve his constituency. Through court proceedings, he was deprived of his office which was fairly given him by the people. While his friends had no jurisdiction over the courts, the "voice of the people" is always supreme at the polls and a host of voters believe that the right to hold this office is due T. J. Bledsoe and they will back up this belief with ballots. Mr. Bledsoe is equally popular with one class as with another. Leading business men of the town believe in him; the farmer with him and the common labor regard his as his friend. Mr. Bledsoe is a Republican and this fact makes him "mighty popular" with the colored citizens. He is just an approachable as sheriff as he is a private citizen, being a broad-minded man and one who believes that every citizen regardless of color or conditions should be protected in the enjoyment of his civic rights. The colored citizen has found T. J. Bledsoe to be friendly to the colored man's cause and ever ready to render assistance to a member of the race in anyway that lay within his power. He has a strong following of colored friends and a number of local colored political leaders to espouse his cause. Mr. Bledsoe is going to make a strong race in the general election of Nov. 5. ALLEN HOTCHKISS For County Clerk. The Echo is authorized to announce Alien Hotchkiss, promo nominees, as a candidate for Council, subject to the votes of people in the general election of November 5th. Among the best known citizens of Garland County Mr. Hotchkiss might be easily numbered, for no man in public office scarcely enjoys a wider circle of friends. As County Clerk Mr. Hotchkiss' record is one which commends him to the voting public, for efficient service he marked his tenure of office and courtesy in the discharge of public duty has won for him a host of friends and supporters in both city and county. Mr. Hotchkiss has rendered invaluable service to the federal government and at the same time has served the best interests of the citizens of our county. In seeking re-election, he is only asking what he truly deserves. He has served his continuity faithfully and well in the approaching election, true appreciation of his good service should be recorded at the polls SATURDAYS Published by Echo Publishing Co.

The Germans have been past masters in the exercise of their arm but now they are doing business with "de feet." We hope that soon the negro race will have some God-made leader. We have some of the self-appointed and self-made kind, but this class is so full of the everlasting ego and keep their ears so close to the ground listening for the pieddils of the white folks that there is small chance of getting out of the wilderness of race discrimination. The other class is the white folks' brand and this kind is made with lead and drawstrings which permit them to move around in a prescribed circle. Bye and bye another Frederick Douglass, a God-appointed man will forge to the forefront and the race will make another great stride to ward the goal of Democracy. ```markdown ``` After years of patient waiting and some little agitation, colored bath attendants have at last secured a raise in their fees. While it is the concensus of opinion that 10 cents should have been added to the old fee, in view of the increased cost of living, the 5 cent raise will nep considerably and lends encouragement to the belief that ultimately the fee will be 25 cents. We compliment the attendants in this matter and hope that they will show appreciation of what they have received, but not satisfaction that the amount is adequate for their services or needs. We have always believed in "asking." The Bible tells us to do so. We believe in the good book, and in order to receive we must not be backward or stingy in making our wants known. The Spanish Influenza seems to have too stylish a name to pay much attention to colored faces. It seems to be a kind of Lily-white disease and rather discriminating and picks out white folks, principally for his associates. It appears to give them all the "Spanish trimmings," but the black brother seems to get only the plain old influenza and about the only effect it appears to have on him is to make him sneeze a dozen times, cough nine coughs and then get up and go his way. Mr. J. W. Graham of the Echo, and special travelling manager of "Who's Who in Arkansas," is spending several days at home, resting, after several weeks of successful business on the road. Mr. Graham touches the Spanish Influenza prevalent in every community visits and owes to the effects of this wide-spread epidemic, he will remain at home until no situation undergoes a change. This work is progressing nicely. Editor Lockhart requests that local subscribers who are to have representation in this publication will please send in the amount of their subscription at once and please call and see him in regard to the subject matter to be printed, as the time is now at hand when you must act. Representatives o f the race are writing from all over the state and are complying with the requirements. We urge that you do your part NOW. CHURCH NOTES. A great many persons have expressed their pleasure and profit from the church service given out from the Roanoke Epiphany church by the pastor, Dr. J. T. Hill for last Sunday, the 13th past. Dr. Hill had in this rendered a greater service to the city than he can imagine. When you cause one to think you have done a great thing, and if at the same time you can have those thoughts centred on God you have done the greatest and most lasting service you can do for the individual you have tried to influence. Dr. Hill ill continue to give out these services while the closing order remains in force. Get a copy of the Echo and through it it be able to attend an intelligent, thoughtful, inspiring and helpful church service --- omorrow. The Echo can be bind at Thomas' Frag Store and Barnett's inlaird parlor on Malvern Avenue and at 115 Church St. The Echo is authorized to announce Charles H. Davis, Democrat nominee as a candidate for County Treasurer, subject to the votes of the people in the general election of November 5th. Charles H. Davis is a popular favorite. He is a man whom the people hold in the blightest esteem and one who in the faithful discharge of public duty and kindly interest manifested in the welfare of all citizens regardless of race, color and creed has won a host of friends who stand ready to accord him their strongest support. Mr. Davis, during his years of experience in Hot Springs has been identified with every progressive movement and whenever called upon has rendered active serviles in affairs for the upbuilding of our community. His record as a citizen is one of the host and as a public officer, he has rendered such sentimental vote will be given to this to the people. At the polls on Nov. 11 there will be a host of Davis supporters and a sublime compulsory service as commensuria nim worthy citizen. --- The Echo is authorized to announce Mr. J. F. Cooper as a candidate for Tax Assessor, subject to the action of the people in the general election of November 5th. Mr. Cooper is a man of the people and believes in such equalization of tax assessment as will leave to doubt of a "square deal." If elected he will give his personal attention to the duties of his office and promises to personally examine and ascertain the true valuation of property so that there will be such fair qualification that no citizen will be compelled to bear an unjust burden, but all property will be assessed according to true and fair valuation. With this plan pursued and faithfully carried out, there will be money enough realized to place both city and county on a firm financial basis and Hot Springs will come int obits own. Mr. Cooper has been here for 21 years and is both widely known and popular with the people. He is known as "a man of his word," and if elected there is no doubt in our mind that he will carry out his plasures to the people. Judge Scott Wood Announces. The Echo is authorized to announce Judge Scott Wood, Democrat nominee for Circuit Judge, as a candidate for re-election in the general election of Nov. 5th. Judge Scott Wood is without doubt one of the strongest jurists in the State of Arkansas. He is a man of forceful mind and strict integrity and is possessed of the true qualities of leadership, hence he has held the confidence of the citizens of Garland and Montgomery counties and their faith in him has kept him identified with the political voice of the 11th Judicial District. He lived in jurisprudence, he is prepared to make a ruling on any law at law with little fear of contradiction. He has the courage of his convictions and the people have great faith in his legal strength. As Circuit Judge he has been validated by these principles and has found always at hand, the heavy support of a strong constituency. Judge Wood has good moral integrity for civil rights courses and exact justice. His administration has been characterized by fitness and impartiality. He has a strong following in Garland county and will receive very strong support in the general election of November 5th.
