Making Children Happy.

Our quiet hours with our chill dren should first of all be cheerful hours, says an exchange. Sid- ney Smith has said: If you make children happy now, you make them happy twenty years hence by the memory of it. I be- lieve it to be quite true. We should make the hour with our children full of joy, then twenty years from now we, too, can re- call how happy they were, how we heard their merry voices and watched them play, and we can look with pride on our children. Grown up lads Then, too the quiet hours with our children should be loving! How much the small touches of a mothers love means to the child! Even if it is only a whisper to your son as he starts to school. Remember, mother is thinking about you all day and expecting you to be a good boy,' how much better the effect of such farewell than hurry him away with some sharp and nervous rebuke.

interested more in the continual tion of this work than is the pub- lie. We have interests in com- mon with every citizen, to say nothing of the financial interests we have at stake in the success of our company, and why we can be blamed for a discontinuance of the work of Maj. Drought is more than 1 can see. It is easier for some people to find fault than it is for them to help along 8 pub- lie enterprise. The persons who are placing the responsibility of the failure of Major Drought to resume work at the feet of the Green Forest Oil & Gas Go. are those who have steadfastly re- fused to help by taking stock or otherwise helping to promote the interest of our company, or else they do not know what they are talking about. Our company is originally responsible for all that has been accomplished, all the money that has been spent in prospecting, and instead of grat- itude some of the parties who have profited on account of it are lending us kicks.
 s'I do not yet regard the mat ter permanently settled that Maj. Drought will withdraw from here. He is fair minded man. Ido not believe he will hold the public or the Oil & Gas Co. responsible for the actions of a few individuals in refusing to grant options. I am yet hopeful that he will see his way clear to proceed with his prospecting work upon his re- turn from Old Mexico. One thing sure, he and the public both may depend upon the Green Forest Oil & Gas Co. to do all it can to help the matter along that is in the bounds of reason. We will do anything that does not mean a sacrifice of the interests of many nonresidents who hold stock in our company"

U. c. V. Resolutions.

At a special meeting of John G. Fletcher Camp, No. 638, U. c. w., held at Green Forest Ark, on the 17th day of January, 1903, I. A. Clarke, J. P. Fancher. and G. M. Wallace were appointed com mittee to draft resolutions in honor of the late Gen. Geo. Moor man. The committee made the following report, which was adopted:
 Whereas, Gen. Geo. Moorman, Adjutant General and Chief of Staff of Gen. John B. Gordon, commander-in chief of the Unit ed Confederate Veterans, was suddenly cut down by the hand of death, while in the discharge of his duties in the service of the association, at his home in New Orleans, on the 18th day of last December, belt
 Resolved, That we learn with deep sorrow of the demise of this great man and noble son of the South.
 We feel that in his deplorable death the association has sustain . ed an immeasurable, and per- haps, an irreparable loss. We recognize the worth and true greatness of Gen. Moorman, and his valuable service in building an organization of U. c. V. to it's present magnificent proportions. He did a grand work for the vet erans of the south, and as it was a work of love without pecuniary reward, we honor and revere his memory for his noble generosity. This camp remembers with pride his devotion to duty and his efficient services as gallant soldier during the entire war be- tween the states, and his labor of love for the southern soldiers since the war, but we are especi- ally proud of the fact that his grand career began in the Trans Mississippi Department, when he discharged his duties as he did everywhere, with consum- mate ability, in the spirit of a true patriot and noble man.
 We extend to Gen. Gordon, our beloved commander-in chief, our sympathy in the loss of his great adjutant, and, as comrades of Gen. Moorman, we tender sincere condolence to his family in their bereavement.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE.
It's DOings as Reported by Our.
 Special Correspondents.

Little Rock. Jan. 27-The city has been crowded nearly all the week with delegates to the Good Roads Convention. It was one of the most representative gather ings held in the state, and it's re- suits will be a heritage to our children. We never saw such an enthusiastic gathering, never saw men in such real earnest. The Good Roads Convention means much to Arkansas. The del egates were royalty entertained by the good people of the city, and all returned home praising their treatment.
 The house of representative sat down on the resolution to visit the convict farm in a body. It is more than probable that 8 special committee will be appointed to examine the farm and report their findings.
 The joint resolutions inviting Attorney General Murphy to ad dress the assembly and which passed the senate met it's death in the house Friday. This is probably as it should be. The feeling between the governor and the other members of the peni- tentiary board is already at fever heat, and little more fuel ad- ded to the flame would result in immeasurable injury to the state. It is generally conceded that the governor in his message took advantage of his constitutional privilege of delivering it, and went away outside of the pro- prieties of the occasion. We get it straight from a member of the house who stands "next" to the governor, that he will be candi- date for re- election again next year. s'This is final, official and sol"
 Already there is talk of extend ing the session. That there is more business in sight for the general assembly than ever be- fore is certain, but there is no reason why it should not get through in 60 days if the ways and means committee get through with their work and submit an apnropria atiOn hill
 The idea of a two mill state road tax is finding much favor, and it may be recommended by the ways and means committee.

In Loving Memory Of
MATTE COX FREDERICK.

Had the power "n this sad night,
To softly speak one little word
To call the dead back into life,
That sound should ne'er be heard.
For though to-day, with sobbing sound
We stood around on open grave,
And to the dark and mournful ground,
Priceless treasure gave,
Yet God, in His infinite grace and love,
Has made it lighter to bear,
By showing that in His home above.
She is free from pain and care.
Now We have one vacant place,
The weak, low voice Is still;
But on the patient, suffering face,
We read Gods holy will.
She was glad TO leave this sinful world,
And cross to the ''shining shore,"
Where, III the loving Savior's crown,
She's jewel forevermore.
Then cease. sad hearts, your weary
aches,
And listen to bright Heavens bell,
That says to him that stands and waits,
"HE doeth all things well,''
We should not grieve; look up and say.
II trust Thee. faithful Friend,"
And walk while Jesus leads the way,
To meet her In the end.
