IS GREEN FOREST ON THE MAP ?

IS GREEN FOREST ON THE MAP ? With Apologies to Leslie Banner.
 Why is Green Forest on the map?
 Who knows Green Forest is on the map?
 Who cares-other than our home folks?
 What does Green Forest mean, industrially, to Arkansas?
 Anything?
 What is Green Forests rank in the Arkanas development game?
 Whats the score?
 Are we really in the game?
 Boys, it is almighty important, the position Green Forest takes in this race for industrial supremacy.
 And the old town cannot fight her battles without you and me to boost.
 We can boost at least if we do not build.
 No town is better than her men.
 No town ever went ahead without men to push her ahead-a lazy fellow allows his crops to run to weeds.
 A lazy townsman allows his town to run to weeds literally and figuratively.
 Weeds and crops do not thrive well together.
 Weeds and town development do not know each other.
 Let's cut down the weeds.
 Let's cultivate our ground.
 There is reason for our town being on the map, or it would not be there. Let's study our town little while.
 Find out why Green Forest is on the map; why you and and our neighbors settled on this spot instead of some where else.
 In making this inquiry we will prob ably discover reasons why other per sons, other business men, would like to live and do business in our town.
 We will discover our advantages.
 After we know our town, let's tell others; lets pass the information around; send it abroad.
 Our private business is important, and must not be neglected, but our general business interests are insepa- rably associated with the welfare of the town.
 If the town prospers, we will have a better chance to prosper.
 What are you, and what am 1, will ing to do to make our town more prominent on the map!

County Examiner on School Tax

Many of our people look upon our special school tax as burden, and at the same time will pay their tax for a jail, alms-house or court house with seeming pleasure. Why is it that any one should protest against a tax that goes to his own children, or if not his own children to his neighbors children? Every dollar paid as school tax will lessen the amount to be paid for jails and almshouses. Is it not better to tax for education than for almshouses and jails?
 The false and foolish doctrine that we are too poor to educate has seen its day in Arkansas. The few who would use such an argument are now without listeners to such logic.
 It is hoped that the County Examiner will be able to report that every district in Carroll county will vote a seven-mill tax, if it takes that much money to give their children eight months school Shall other peoples children have a better chance of success in life than mine is the question that many a parent will settle at the school election on the Fist day of this month. How are you going to settle the question.
 Is there a more prosperous con- munity in all of Arkansas than the town of Green Forest? She votes T. mill special tax, and would vote more if the law allowed, because she SUD- plcments that heavy tax by supporting a private school nearly four months in the year. Much of the expense of this school is pure donation from her people, as they put board at or below actual cost. Other communities will follow in the wake of Green Forest.
 Osage has been paying the best price to her teachers of any district in the country. So far we have not heard a word of complaint from the heavy tax the people impose on themselves for the benefit of their children. On the 2lst of May that enterprising little burg will show that she is not a "quitter. The same old tax will be voted, and the same number of successful teachers will go forth to bless the county with their work.
 Carrollton, the place can boast of being the native town of some of the most illustrations citizens of the state, is laboring to maintain that reputation, and well is she succeeding.
 The people of Urbanette are discuss ing the question of a new house. The one now belonging to the district is only few years old. Where is there a community that has done better than this one.
 Will May 21, 1910, say to our children that you shall have on average over & days per year? We hope that the people, on the day, will decree that the average shall be 100 days if not better.

EVERYWHERE we see people going to the wall, "says Success, disappointed, never knowing what has caused their disappointment; never knowing the real cause of their wrecked lives, for lack of self-analysis or because no one ever told them. They can tell when a neighbor gets into a rut; when his business is shrinking. They can see the paralysis creeping through his factory or other place of business, the evidence of the dry rot that is running him, but they can not see how they stand themselves. Familiarity with the gradual deterioration about them has paralyzed their vision; blinded them to their condition. They can criticize other people and see their danger but can not see their own.

A GOOD business man will not let any personal spite or grudge of any kind to stand between him and busi- ness. It may be hard for one to wait upon people whom you do not like, but business is business. When such people come into business place it is necessary to lay aside petty foolishness. Be white and treat them white. That is the best way We are nothing more than little insignificant worms after all is said and done and when we are gone and others occupy the space which we now fill the earth will go on in it's revolution just the same as for ages.
