Considering the vast amount of
work that has been accomplished
in Winfield in a very short span
of years, the prospects are roseate
for its full development into the
progressive city in a very brief
period.
Mrs. j. S. Hunt and little son
accompanied Mrs. A. b. Moore,
her guest and sistRr-in-law, as far
III Ruston, where she will spend a
few days with relatives and
friends. Mrs. Moore spent the
past week with Mrs. Hunt and
returns to her home in Arkadel-
phia.
1t is noted that some of the
badly washed side streets have
recently been repaired and graded.
A system of thorough ditching
and grading is badly needed.
Undoubtedly this will be done
when the system Of water works
is inaugurated. 1t takes time to
do all things.
The reporter of The Sentinel
takes this method of expressing
his thanks and appreciation of
the many cOurtesies extended
and valuable assistance rendered
hun by Secretary j. w. Boyett
and associate, j. n. DeLoach,
during the session of the Farmers
Union convention.

Some enterprising citizen could
make an excellent living by inau-
gurating a regular line of convey
ances between this town aud the
Natatorium, q distance of three
miles. Many visitors anxious To
visit this resort are debarred from
doing so for the lack of regular
transportation.
The editor of The Sentinel re-
grets very much not being able to
attend the banquet given by Nine
Host G. l.. Bradley of the Mon.
roe Hotel on the 23rd to the cid
veterans, to which we were invit-
ed. We have read with pieasur,
the description given in the Mon
roe papers, and the pleasure it
gave the old vets. We take off
our hats to Col. Bradley.
The sloping neutral ground of
Main street on. the square between
Bevill street aud Central Division
avenue shows what little work
and expense are necessary to
fringe the sidewalks with attrac-
tive areas and prevent constant
repairs. A beruriful green sward
its whole length and is
II very attractive setting to the
concrete pavement.
