SOME OF THE DANGERS OF LIFE
Prof. Wootton Tells What He Proposes
 10 Do.

Some seem to think that we are undertaking too much when we ad- vertise complete course in Book keeping and Banking in three months and Shorthand in sixty days. Have we a right to tell the truth? The world is full of dan ger. It is dangerous to violate the law; it is dangerous to stand over a telephone during q storm; 1t IS dangerous to sleep on the railroad track: it is equally dangerous from a financial standpoint for q professional man to misrepresent.
 There are two routes From Mena, Ark, to Hot Springs, Ark, Around by Texarkana IS over two hundred miles: straight through is under one hundred miles. If business man follows his profession twenty three years without cutting a bee-llne, ne ought to go out of business.

TO COMPILE CREDIT GUIDE.
It is Planned to Give Rating of Every
 Man in This Section.

Charles E. Hill and l.. M. Hines, representing the Mer- chants Mercantile Company of Okla homa City, are in Mena for the purpose of compiling credit guide of Polk, Sevier and Scott counties. This IS for the use largely of merchants and business men and will show the credit standing of pract cally every man in the counties named. The IT, nancial standing, such as is shown in Bradstreets and Duns, will have no bearing in this case, but man with nothing but his salary or income from any source who pays his accounts promptly will stand as we'll as any other.
 In this day when almost every man uses credit to more or less extent, this will be beneficial to both business men and all men who pay their accounts and debts as agreed.

WHITE CLIFF SUIT SETTLED.
After Years of Litigation Famous
 Chalk Lands Ordered Sold.

Texarkana, May 18.-Among the cases disposed of in the Federal court Saturday was the famous White Cliff suit, which involves the ownership of the White Cliff cement property, situated thirty miles north of here in Little River county. By consent of all the parties Tn inter est a decree was entered by the court for the sale of the property for a minimum sum of S65, 900.
 All claims have been adjusted and the money realized from the sale of the property will be ap- piled to the payment of the vari- ous outstanding indebtedness. The case has been in the courts for several years.
 White Cliff was first discovered and exploited to the world about 10 years ago by German named Won Butcher, grandnephew ol General Blucher, who served Wellington at Waterloo in 1915 The property is regarded as very valuable. Its chalk deposits which are practically inexhaust able. are said to make the fines cement in the country. The works have been idle for severa years, as a result of the litiga tion, but it is now expected ths the work of development of th, property will proceed.

thank you, mem oers of the School Board, for the aid you have given us. We thank you for the en- enlargement and help you have always given, and especially for that in the last four years, for we realize that without your CO., operation no one could have built up a high school, and we feel greatly indebted to you for this, Mena's first four-year high school graduating class. And now, dear friends, we thank you for your appreciation of Mena's high school and it's graduates. We thank you for your interest in us and your attendance tonight. Though we bid you goodbye as students, we shall always remem- Der you and shall think of you as true, kind and loving friends.
 Now teachers, we must say goodbye to you, but this good bye will not be forp citing. We will be with you no more in the school room but we hope you will instlll into the minds of others the same wisdom that we have received from you.
 Dear Superintendent, we must say goodbye to you, but this goodbye will not be a forgetting. We will think of you more often from this time on than we have done before. We shall never for get your help and encouragement, for many are the times when we were dispairing that you have helped us over the rough places and put us again on smooth ground; and bJ your bright and interesting way to knowledge you have taught us to measure up to the highest of our abilities.
 Now, dear classmates we, must say goodbye. Our graduation, which we, like all others have thought of only with joy, has come. But behind the sunshine there is ever a cloud, and apart from the joy of our graduation, we must say goodbye to each other, our school days and school mates. Happy were the days we spent together, but they are gone and as we go onward in life we will be separated, but may we al- ways love each other and remem- Der the happy days together, and especially the time that we bade one and all sweet goodbye.

Fort Smith, May 19,-Yegg. men at ? o'clock yesterday morn- ing blew open the safe at the Van Buren postoffice but were frightened away by the night police force before entrance could be effected into the inner com partmeut where the money and stamps were kept.
 The outer door of the large Hall safe was broken into bits and pieces of iron were hurled in- to every part of the room. The furniture was reduced to mass of wreckage by the force of the shock and windows rattled for blocks.
 A hole was drilled through the steel of the safe door by hand pump operared by compressed air and a charge of nitroglycerine was exploded. The noise of the explosion brought the night watchman. He saw two men run from the back door and one mounted horse which he whipped into a run. The other man ran across lots and escaped.
 On the floor of the room was found two safe jimmies, a mans bat and the remains of the hand pump. A handful of soap used in the drilling was left in cor ner and a small vial of what is supposed to be nitro. glycerine was near the safe.
