Rev. W. B. Hays spent two days of
this week at Newark in the interest
of Hendrix College Endowment
Fund. Mr. Hays has been appointed
by the board of directors of Hendrix
College to solicit from the southern
portion of the Batesville district, for
this endowment fund, which is fifty
thousand dollars, and endows a chair
of Bible and Christian Education in
the college. He says Newark went
“over the top” in their subscriptions,
one man near there, at Moorefield,
subscribing one thousand dollars.
Mr. Hays is considered by the con
ference heads one of their strongest
and most capable men, and never fail
to put on him the church’s most dif
ficult work. He is an untiring work
er in the interest of his home town
as well, for during the past year of
war work he has been right along
with our business men in campaigns,
raising the various war funds, and
successfully. He is serving his fourth
year as pastor of the local church,
and, until recently, would have been
his final year, or time allotted in
Methodism, but at the general con
ference at Atlanta, the old rule of the
church was done away with, and
when the board of stewards and pre
siding elder see best, the time is ex
tended.

NATIONAL FLAG DA i .
Next Friday is Flag Day and the
Newport Lodge of Elks is planning
to take the lead in a great celebra
tion designed to pay fitting tribute
to the glorious stars and stripes.
The idea of setting apart one day in
the year as flag day originated with
the Elks Lodge several years ago.
Later congress recognized the force
of the plan and nationalized Flag
Day, setting it apart as a day for
honoring Old Glory as a time for pa
triotic devotion to the ideals of this
grat nation. Now, as never before,
[the hundred million people who are
units in this great government, are
rallying to the Flag, and now, as
never before Flag Day has a deeper
significance and stirs patriotic im
pulses in the hearts of the masses.
I A beautiful program is being got
ten up under the direction of Mrs.
P. H. Van Dyke, who is getting to
gether the best musical talent of the
city to sing patriotic songs and put
on flag drills. Many attractive feat
ures are to be introduced at the ser
| vice, which will be at the opera
• house Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
Rev. Marion Waldrip of Hot Springs,
one of the state’s most popular pub
i lie speakers, will make the address
i for the occasion.
