COUNTY READING CIRCLE
Faulkner Teachers Form Organization at
 Public School Saturday.

A number of teachers of the Ar kansas Teachers Reading Circle met at the Conway public school building Saturday for the purpose of organizing a county association. Prof. T. F. Forrest, who IS county manager, was elected chairman and Miss Maggie Denison secretary.
 It was decided to have several local circles throughout the county. These will meet once each month and the adopted books will be studied and discussed. Local cir cles will be held at Conway, Vi lonia, Holland, Greenbriar, En- ders, Chadwick and Guy. A local director will be appointed by the county manager.
 The professional book adopted was Halleck' Psychogy and Psy- chic Culture. The Couture book adopted was Semple's American History and its Geographical Con- ditions. The professional book must be finished by June. The county examiner stated that he would renew the license of no teacher unless he had read Hal leck's Psychology and Psychic Culture.
 A committee composed of C. C. Jones, Miss Florence Hamilton, and Mrs. C. H. Nelson was ap- pointed to outline the work for each month. The association then ad- iourned to meet again during the institute in June.

TRAGEDY IN PERRY COUNTY
George Haines Shot and Killed
 by Negro.
Lynching is Narrowly Averted, but Of fcers Land Slayer in Jail
 at Little Rock.

The Perrville News of Saturday has the following account of a tragedy at Fourche last Thursday:
 A negro mill hand Henry Lee shot and killed George Haines, the head sawyer at the FourChe River Lumber Company's mill, Thursday during the noon hour.
 The negro claims that Haines ordered him to change the saws at- ter the whistle blew for noon and upon his refusal to obey orders, Haines started at him with a heavy piece of timber, when he drew his pistol and shot Haines to death.
 It seems there was no one near at the time of the shooting and Lee made his escape, going to Hous- ton. A posse was in pursuit and had no difficulty in tracing the negro as he made frequent inqiiies along the road and told of the shooting. Lee stopped at MT. Winkley's house and asked per mission to spend the night there.
 Winkley fixed him bed in his barn and then sent his son after the officers. Deputy Sherifs Gil lenwater and Shelton arrived soon and placed Lee under arrest. Dep uty Prosecuting Attorney Bow en filed information against Lee, who waived examination and was taken to Little Rock and placed in jail to await the action of the grand jury.
 Indignation and excitement was at high pitch among Haines' friends and a lynching was narrow ly averted by the officers.
 The murdered man leaves wife and four small children. His wife was i'll and is report in critical condition since the shooting oc- cured.

 The teachers and pupils are all looking forward for a new school building in the near future.
 The Lanier Society has been greatly improving since Christmas. The debate last Friday was one of the best in the history of the soci- ety. The subject was: Resolved that Columbus deserves more praise for discovering America than Washington does for defend ing the same. The affirmatives were D. w. H. P. Pearson, Iva Muse and Perlin Thayer. The neg atives were Agnes Maddox, Rice Wilson and John Reeves. Howard James was to be one of the negative but was absent, and John Reeves volunteered to take his place. He was one of the best on the neg ati we side. The negatives won the de- bate.
 Mrs. T. M. Moore and Mrs. L.. C. Holman were among the visitors of the school last week. Visitors are welcome at any time.
 Sergeant Jones was absent from the society last Friday and L. H, Moore was appointed to fill the vacancy.
 The boys will soon begin to play ball and some of them have proph- isied that we would have several fine teams this year. We expect to play several games both at home and abroad.
 Prof. Waters had a great many trees set out in the campus and some of the boys are going to set out some more.

Letter To John r. Taylor,
Snow Hill. Md.

Dear Sir A new word has come into
use in paint; it is strong. Strong paint
is paint as strong as paint can be-
Weak paint is pant not so strong.
If one paint takes 10 gallons to do a
job and another Is, the 10 gallon paint
is the stronger.
If one paint wears 10 years. and an
other >, the l0-year paint is the stronger
The strongest paint is the one that
takes least gallons and wears longest.
But do such differences exist? Yes
and greater. Devoe is the strongest Of
all. A job that takes 10 gallons Devoe
takes more than % Of some. And job
of Devoe wears several times as long
as a job of some paints.
O. h. Perry. East Sth St, Erie, Pa,
painted two houses same size same
time: with two paints same price; took
gallons Devoe TO 4 of the other; and
IN three years Devoe was the better
looking job.
There are strong and weak paints:
we all want the strongest, paint can't
be too strong.
Yours truly.

BE NOT DECEIy ED !

A sLANDERING tongue IS more
To be dreaded than the most
loathsome reptile that crawls
upon the face of the earth, for
he will give warning before he
strikes you-but a slanderer
never. Let a man or woman
start on the downward road to
ruin and we are all prone to
step aside and cry out, slide
on, slide on to destruction. 4"
Instead of stretching out the
hand of brotherly love and stay
ing their progress, we stand by
and let them slide. He who
can stoop down and lift up his
fallen brother from the mire
and place him on his feet and
whisper sweet counsel in his
ear, and bid him to go and lead
a better life, is truly a bene-
factor to the race.
