Workers Wanted

Negroes, negroes everywhere, and no, man to work, is the plight of the south. In constructive opera tions during the last year the negro iaborer was found willing to work at exceptionally high wages, for about half the time. In railroad work, we are informed by reports from that section, the men averaged about 12 days each month. Wages are on a steady increase, many cities paying from $50 to g per day. With white employees an increase of wages generally is followed by marked additional effort. Not so with the dark man, on whom an advance in the wage scale produces exactly the op- posite effect He works only long enough for actual maintenance, and with augmented wages he promptly makes direct and corresponding re- duction in effort. His improyidence and shiftlessness is reflected in the sections annual reports which show in Mobile county, Alabama for in stance. that fer the average fisezl pc riod more than half have been buried as paupers at the public expense. the extent of this economic loss being de- fined in the statement that about one half the entire population of the coen- ty. CT something like 10000, are of negro descent. Meanwhile the south . industrial expansion has produced a labor demand which is supplied neith- er by natural increase of natives or by the arrival of aliens.

The whole length of the drive between the post and the city park was one great ovation. and the route was lined by cheering crowds.

 At the City Park
 Upon the arrival of the president at the city park the speaking was be gun by the introduction of Governor Davis. The governor made a short speech. extending welcome to Ar kansas, and declared that no words could adequately express the pleasure of the people in the visit of the pres dent. The governor declared incident ally that the Southern white man could best solve the race question and that the occasional outbreaks of mobs for the summary punishment of revolting , crimes, are not an evidence of racial prejudice, but of a purpose to show that these awful crimes cannot be com. mitted with impunity,
 Judge Jacob Trieber then spoke briefly. welcoming the president on be half of the city of Little Rock

Motoring Makes Fat.

Women who are afraid of growing fat and adding adipose tissue should not motor much. Nothing increases the appetite like rushing through fresh air, while the fact of sitting all day prevents the taking of ordinary exer- elsie, Few people walk after they ac- Quire motor. Progression seems too slow and too tiresome. so that, like hens shut up in coop, they only stir to eat. Ii it is desired to retain the figure. q woman should not motor every day, or at least not all day and should take care to indulge in brisk walk, ride. or a bicycle run as we'll in order to exercise the muscles and keep them supple and strong. It is extremely easy togetfatan1 shapeless in a very short time. and as difficult to return to ones normal con. Gitien of slimness. The average motor ist is fat and blessed with an admirable appetite.

Self-Dependenee

Many man has tried to justify his failure on the ground that he was doomed by the cards which fate dealt him, that he must pick them up and play the game, and that no effort, how ever great, on his part, could material ly change the result. But. my young friend says Orison Swett Marsden in Success Magazine, the fate that deals your cards is in the main your own resolution. The result of the game does not rest with fate or destiny, but with you. You will take the trick if you have the superior energy, abili- ty and determination requisite to take it You have the power within your self to change the value of the cards which, you say, fate has dealt you The game depends upon your train ing, upon the way you are disciplined to seize and use your opportunities, and upon your ability to put grit In the place of superior advantages. Just because circumstances do some times give clients to lawyers and pa uents to physicians, put commonplace clerygymen in uncommon pulpits, and place the sons of rich at the head of great corporations even when they have only average ability and scarce ly any experience, while poor youths with greater ability and more expert. ence often have to fight their way for years to obtain ordinary stua- tions, are you justified in starting out without a chart or in leaving a place for luck in your programme? What would you think of the captain of great liner who would start out to sea without any port in view, and trust to luck to land his precious cargo safely? Did you ever know of a strong young man making out his life programme and depending upon chance to carry out any part of it? Men who depend upon luck" do not think it worth while to make a thor. ough preparation for success. They are not willing to pay the regular price for It. They are looking for bargains. They are hunting for short cuts to success. Power gravitates to the man who knows how. Luck Is the tide, nothing more. The strong man rows with it if 1t makes toward his port; he rows against it if it flows the other way

Scarcity of Labor.

There is big demand for labor in the fields of the cotton-growing sec tions of the state at present, and it is quite probable that an effort will soon be made to secure an Italian colony to take the place of negroes. Numbers of negroes are leaving the country and going to the cities and 1t is a serious problem to secure sufficient labor in many instances to work the crops. The prospects of securing several large colonies of Italians is said to be very good

After the preliminary greetings were over the president and party ascended to the army post, being preceded by guard of honor com posed of Federal and ex-Confederate veterans. These veterans were led by eX-Gov. Dan w Jones and Col A. s. Fowler. The president was very visibly impressed by the spirit of amity manifested among the eX-sol- diers in this selection of his escort. This spectacle of the blue and the gray marching side by side is said not to have been witnessed by the president on any previous occasion. As the party proceeded up the hill salute Of twenty-one guns was fired at intervals of ten seconds. Upon the arrival of the president at the post dress prade was given by the regular soldiers composing the garrison of the fort.
