ACCOMMODATE THE PUBLIC.

The recent announcement made by the Pine Bluff Delivery Company that it had entered into a contract with the Arkansas and Texas Consolidated Ice and Coal Co.,. and the Consumers Ice and Coal Company, of this city, whereby it will handle practically the entire output of the local ice plants, has brought about some new rules in the delivery and sale of ice that is not meeting with favor on the part of the public Manager R. T. Lou than, of the delivery company, states that the new methods of delivery were dopted for the purpose of sys- tematizing the daily deliveries and to give the public a more prompt and satisfactory service in this respect. It was figured that the ice compa- nies were operating the delivery ser vice at loss, owing to the inability of the drivers to maintain a more perfect and uniform schedule throughout the city.
 The public would gladly welcome any move that would result in better service from a delivery standpoint, but they file objections to the new rule, put into effect on April 1, that no person can purchase , cents worth Of ice unless they send to the factor ies for it. Many declare that this rule will work a hardship on subur- banites and in many instances incon- venience patrons of the companies. In many cases there are only two members of a family. The head of the family is at work during the day, while the housewife is forced to spend the day at home in perform ance of her household duties. In other cases many poor families are not financially able to purchase more than , cents worth of ice a day. Often sickness in the home Of the poor people makes it necessary to have ice delivered at the door.
 Manager Louthan states that he is not bent on doing anything that would work hardship on his pa irons. He contends that the Deliv- cry Company makes small sales from wagons at loss.
 It is to the public that the ice con- panies must cater and the public ought to be given every consideration and convenience by them. Public sentiment means as much to ice com panies as it does to any other enter prise maintained by public patronage, and the Delivery Company would do a great service to an inconvenienced lublic if it returned to the former custom of selling small quantities of ice from it's wagons.

NIXON'S VICTORY.

The signal victory recently scored by Attorney T. Havis Nixon, the ver- satile young Pine Bluff lawyer, who was nominated for prosecuting attor- ney of the Eleventh Judicial District in the recent primary election, was victory of which MT. Nixon and his loyal friends might we'll feel proud, and although defeated, MT. Hunt and his friends have nothing to regret for the excellent fight they made.
 Sidney J. Hunt is a clean man. A good lawyer and good campaignec His ability and integrity was amply attested by the flattering vote he re- ceived throughout the district. It is to be regretted that Mir. Hunt was sacrificed in a popular public wave of Nixon sentiment. There are none who will doubt the ability of Havis Nixon. His record as a lawyer in this city and state, since his admittance to the bar, will compare favorably with that of any legal light in this section. He has brilliant future. Of him the people expect much. He can either mold his future or destroy 1t.
 There are many who declare that Havis Nixon is unsafe, careless, acts on the impulse of the moment and does things without first weighing their importance or effect. Those who know Havis Nixon best know that he is a man of good common sense. He knows the law. He knows between right and wrong. He is careful when carefulness is an es- sential and he is fair. His recent bombastic campaign was not wholly brought about by Nixon's tendencies
 
 to be sensational. but he realized that the fight made against him required a campaign of this sort and he figur- ed well, for it evidently had its ef- feet. Even the Hunt supporters did not deny Nixon's progressiveness and modern political methods. He reckon ed with his host and he reckoned well.
 Havis Nixon is young man who has suffered political disappointments and can. appreciate political success. He is notssoreslded in matters that affect tse public. He is liberal and the cr-nhic believes that he will Ike r-c of the best prosecnting atv |. se in the history of the distF'cs' i

DON'T scOLp

For the sake of your children don't

children reared in the presence and un.
der the influence OF scold. The effect
of the everlasting complaining and fault
finding of such persons is to make the
young who bear it unamiable, malicious,
callous-hearted, and they often learn to
take pleasure in doing the very things
for which they receive such tongus.lasli-
ings. As they are siwa,G getting the
blame of wrong doing, whether they
deserve il or not, tEey think they mig
as we'll do wrong as right. They loss all
ambition to strive for the favorable opin.

On Tuesday THE Rosary" will be the

INVITATIONS CONE FAST

is not only proposed to have the affair
abig one in attendance, but the menu
and entertainment provided will cor
respond
To give an understanding of what 1t
means to feed seven hundred persons,
it might be we'll to state that the com
mittee has estimated that the meat con-
sumed on this one night will amount to
a quarter of a ton. The bread, if put
end to end would reach to the top of
the water tower and part way down
again. The butter. if put in one roll,
would weigh more than the head waiter
for the banquet, Bill Cain. All the
liquids drank next Wednesday night
would about half fill the tank of the
Emerson school. If a man took twenty
minutes to eat one pie, 1t would take
him two days and two hours to eat all
the pies without stopping for rest or
sleep. An idea of the size of the
crowd in attendance can be gained from
the fact that if they were transported
on train at the same time they would
completely fiji the seats in twelve
coaches.
Aside from the toasts which will be
offered Wednesday night. the committee
has secured the services of a vaude-
