WlLLMAkEHTWO STORIES
directors of Planters State Bank Met
Saturday and Decided Original
Plans for Home Too Small.

AT meeting of the directors of the
newly organized Planters State Bank,
held on Saturday evening, it was de-
clded that instead of building a one
story bank building with a floor space
OF 25x5O. as was first planned, a two
story building, measuring 25x75 would
be built. This will not only allow for
more room for the bank but will allow
room fer Office rooms on the second
floor.
The building is to have a pressed
brick frontage on Mena street and a
side OF pressed brick on the wide alley
between Petty's store and the bank.
The entrance to the bank room will
be at the corner of the building. The
entrance to the stairs leading to the
second story will be about midway of
the building on the alley and a con-
crete walk viii probably be built abong
the side of the building on the alley.
1t is the plan of the directors of the
bank to have the building completed
by March /.

CITY WITHOUT A FLY

Boast.

From the DeQueen Bee,
w Q. Bowman. mayor of Hubbard
City, who attained fame last year by
offering 81 900 for every fly that could
be found in his municipality, was in
Dallas yesterday. 1--WE have abso-
lutely the cleanest city in the state, :
he said last night. There is no doubt
of that fact. Our streets are swept
every Tuesday and Friday and every
vestige or suspicion of trash or refuse
is carefully removed and the thorough
fares are as clean as lady's parlor.
And our system of sanitation is prac-
tically perfect. so much so that my
published offer of 81 900 for every fly
that could be discovered in Hubbard
City wasn't accepted. Our sewer
system is complete and, in fact, with
the exception of street cars we have
every public utility that is enjoyed by
a town of 10000 people. although we
have but 1000 souls in our corporate
limits. Our water has medicinal
properties and at a large expense
there has been erected modern bath
ing establishment, which attracts
many individuals and seekers for
health to our confines. They are all
improved if not cured Of the ailments
from which they suffer.

Here is a new way to make apple
dumplings that will surely please every
housewife, for it is not necessary to
have whole apples, and the juice cannot
run out and burn as with apple dump
lings where the apple is placed in the
center and the dough turned up around
it. The biscuit part forms crispy
shell that holds the apples and juice.
