FAT AND LEAN

That is, babies; fat, they are
happy and safe; lean, they are
neither happy nor safe.
Apart from being entirely
healthy or not quite well, fat
one has much reserve of vital
strength to resist any sudden
attack, while the lean one has
little or no reserve.
The way to be fat and well
is SCOTS emulsion of cod-liver
oil. A little: only little.
Not any, if healthy and plump
already; 'let well enough
alone"
Well send you little 70 Try II yoa Ike.

RIVAL FOR BERRYVILLE.
New Town of "Scullin'' on the St.
 l.. & N. 4. Railroad.

That there will be rival town on the new railroad near Berry vile seems now to be a settled fact.
 J. W. Freeman, the moving spirit on railroad matters con- cerning our county seat town, stated to a TRIBUNE representa- tive last Thursday that new town would be laid off on what is known as the Ledbetter farm, be- tween two and three miles north and little west of Berryville.
 Mr. Freeman owns 16O acres of land in body at this point. He says forty of it will be plated in a few days and active prepara- tions for the building of the new town will then be under way.
 The new town, as yet, has not been christened but Mr. Freeman says that it will probably be named "SculIin," in honor of John Scullin of St. Louis, who is constructing the road.
 Mir. Freeman says that it is the intention to build turnpike road, and perhaps later on an electric line between the two towns. He says he has 8 fran chise on excellent water-pow- CT on Kings river, only short distance from the proposed new town, which can be used for run ming electric motors and lighting the towns at small cost, compara- lively. He also suggested the idea that 6 wire might be extend ed to Green Forest for lighting purposes.

Annual School Election.

The annual school election for the special district of Green Forest last Saturday passed off quietly and favorably, we think, to the school interests of our town.
 There were 57 votes cast, 49 of which were for A. J. Cox and A. J. Russell for directors; A votes were for a 5 mill tax and 43 in favor of the sale of the school building.
 The retiring directors were F. Wise and John Buell., the hold overs being F. O. Butt, H. Stacy, c. B. Grim and J. F. Walker.
 The following report of the financial condition, expenditures, etc, of the district was made by the board:
 Election Expenses, 1929, s GOO. Painting School House. |. S.00. lnsuring school House years, 25o0.' Janitors, months, IA co. Fuel, Il D s Repairs. Seats, Windows, Stoves. Black Payment on School house Site, 25,0o. Teachers Wages, 600,OG,

 Total 734 96. Balance on hand, 13. 46.
 The question of a new school building was discussed and the opinion seemed unanimous that a new house would have to be built. While no plans have yet been adopted by the board as to how the money for the new building is to be secured, it is thought that 8 successful effort may be made in that direction soon, if the old property of the district can be disposed of to a good advantage. Former actions of the board in this has been at their own discre- tion and now that the electors have indorsed what they have done and favor a new building, we look for decided steps to be taken in that direction.
