During this time of decreas- ed traffic and stringent conditions of finance, the company says the equip ment not only Is not needed but would prove a useless expenditure on the part of the company.

Christmas Day
 In Pine Bluff
(Continued From Page One.)

candies a brighter red, and all the wares and tricks and contrivances have had gayer appearance than usual. The wax dolls wear finer clothes and their heavenly blue eyes are limpid with such pathos as art could give them.
 The suggestions Of frost in the air is another symptom of the2 appr oach- ing Xmas day. 1t reddens the cheeks of the youngsters and sends them along with a hop, skip and a jump their faces beanins with the eXpec- tat;on that is sometimes pleasanter than realization.
 We are reasonably sure that for most of these little ones Santa Claus has prepared a feast of good things that will be enjoyed and appreciated, and all of them, let us hope, will be reminded that this season, despite the alleged financial panic, is one of joy and thanksgiving. We are sure that d as jolly as ever, but there are some
 faces he will miss-faces he has missed this many 8 long year. The little girl fair haired and blue eyed, that sat in the yellow sunshine and sang to her dolly will sing no more. The little boy or girl that ran to meet their papa al the gate will run to meet him no more. \ kinder, a higher, wiser than Santa Claus has taken these little ones into his keep ing.
 And yet it may be they will sit with us in the happy Christmas time, not as pale, dread ghosts, but as children who retain their childhood forever
 dream children sitting around it. Thrice blessed the home that has had sorrow for it's guest.
 And yet there are others. The chil- ;dren of the poor, few though they be ia Pine Bluff. They will be well taken care Of tomorrow by the charitable
 Elks, the various institutions that give out charity with a lavish hand and Reverend s. s. Holcomb and oth- CTS, who are continually looking af- ter the wants of the unfortunate needy. Their little hearts will glad den with that childish appreciation that is so touching to nature and so beautiful in It's simplicity.
 There is no panic The financiers may yell their panicky strains, but Pine Bluff goes on in it's usual pro- gressive and industrious fashion, car ing for it's children as in days gone by. The merchants, the laborers, all have much to be thankful for within it's bounds this Christmas time and the Graphic extends it's heartiest good wishes and Christmas cheer.
