opportunity to buy strictly high-grade
pianos below even the regularly es-
tablishcd wholesale or jobbing figures,

SALVATION ARflY IN MENA.

The people of Mena have cause for
congratulation in the fact that the
greatest organization in all the world
for the relief of less fortunate hu-
mainly, the Salvation Army, is to
establish a mission here.
For recent years in almost the en-
tire civilized world, men and women,
earnest, devoted and self-sacrificing,
have taken up a work of humanity,
going into the lower levels, where
needed the most, but where, too
often, denominational churches and
ordinary charity fail to reach.
Mena is fortunate in having but
few instances of suffering for the
necessities of life, and when any
such cases have been brought to
light the people responded quickly
and literally. However, il viii be a
satisfaction to all charitably inclined
people to know that they haye an
organization such as the Salvation
Army, that not only does the
hard work necessary and does it
willingly, but through which their
donations can be distributed to the
really deserving and where they will
do the most good.
The Mena weekly star., 1910-11-24
Want Surcease Of Elections.

Sentiment seems to be crystalizing
around the proposition to give state
officials term of four years and
make them subject to recall in case
of incompetency of malfeasance,
and also ineligible for a second term,
in Kansas.
This will take a constitutional
amendment as the constitution pro-
vides for two year term.
AS it is now, the people of Kansas,
as in Arkansas. are stirred up with
politics all the time. No sooner is
one election off until another cam
paign is begun. The returns from
the recent election are not all in, yet
the politicians are beginning to start
booms for governor and other Of
ficials two years hence.
With state elections held every
four years business would be more
settled, it is argued, and the people
would not be in the throes of a po-
litical agitation always. Many of
the older states have adopted the
four year term and find it works
well. With the recall feature added.
it would be no trouble to get rid of
an undesirable official. What in
this applies to Kansas applies with
double force to Arkansas, for the
reason that we hold primaries as
well as elections and our state cleo
tons are held separate from national
elections.
Arkansas would do well to agitate
for the reform to be needed in Kan
sas. Fort Smith Times Record.

: THANKSGIVING GREETING )

This is the fifteenth time for IT.
Weekly Star and the thirteenth + r
The Evening Star that, under the
same management Thanksgiving
greetings have been sent out to its
numerous readers.
1t is with great satisfaction that
Thanksgiving day, 1910, finds the
people in this section in better and
more prosperous condition than ever
before. Crops have been bountiful,
the prices received by the producers
enough to satisfy all reasonable de-
sires, with result that more men
than ever before have money in
their pockets and the means at hand
to supply their families with the
necessities and comforts of life.
In corresponding ratio the business
interests of Mena are thriving.
Many merchants have found their
sales beyond expectation and are
forced to recorder and replenish de-
pleted stocks. 1t is the usual thing
to hear business men say that 'busi-
ness this fall has been better than
ever before"
But Mena has lost the Kansas City
Southern division!
Yes, that is true-and with it a
number of valuable citizens. But
there is silver lining even to this.
The cloud that has threatened for
years has passed by, the storm is
over, and the sun shines as brightly
as ever, and there is no more that
shifting. threatening cloud that
brought shivers of fear to the timid
wherever its unpleasant shape made
its presence fell.
Hundreds of good people, progress
sive and appreciative of our advan-
tages, are coming into Mena and
Polk Comfy. Thousands more will
come, and the signs are everywhere
that better day is dawning.
Well may we this year give thanks
to the God of all for the blessings
that have been and are ours.
Let us love and work, and work
and love, and deserve all we have
and all that may be given us.

versary congratulations to we'll
known people which Life prints every
week, there stood in the issue of July
Ia, 1910, the following tribute to
Mrs. Eddy, which the News Scimitar
iudorses:
" 1t is a real pleasure to offer our
Fluctuations to one of the most re-
markable women ever born in this
country. Mrs. Eddy has had truly
wonderful career. More maligned
than any woman has ever been that
we can recall, and, on the other
hand, more exalted, she has held her
course in apparent serenity; and at
present, at an advanced age, is still
at the head and front of one of the
greatest religious movements known.
She has made the doctors sit up and
be more careful; she has attracted
crowds Of worshipers, and she still
remains with us in undiminished
glory. Every effort to dislodge her
has only resulted in disaster
Madam. you have established a
true claim upon our respect. How
ever much we may disagree with
your views. it is of much more con-
sequence that we should acknowl-
edge your powerful personality
1--WE give you our blessing.
Peace and a long life continue to be
your lot.

FIRES ON MOUNTAINS
After Two Days Fight the Forest OF.
ficers Give % the Battle.


The mountains north of Mena were
at times Tuesday almost hidden from
sight by a dense smoke which comes
from forest fire which started some
time Saturday. 1t appears to have
originated in the valley near the
watrworks dam and has been working
northward and eastward till it now
covers several hundred acres. A
large part of this is not in the Forest
Reserve.
Forest Ranger Guy Brewer, some
hired men and some volunteers fought
with the fire Sunday and Sunday night
and thought it was out. Brewer was
called Monday to fire on Poteau
mountain and Forest Guard G. j.
Hiett came from the Eagle Gap ranger
station to look over the fire near
Mena. When he went around the fire
line he found that it was apparently
safely extinguished.
Later, however, it broke out and about
five O'Clock Monday night with three
men he went out to try and get it un-
der control. They worked until nine
O'Clock next morning. when they gave
it up and come to town. The line then
was about seven miles long and burning
through grass nearly knee high, but do
ing no damage except possibly to the
young growth of timber.
