The Editors are Coming.

Circular announcement has been re ceiyed from the Secretary of the Ar. kansas Press Association, stating that Forrest City is one of the cities the editors will visit, but the schedule has not yet been arranged, and it is not known just what day and hour they will arrive, nor how long they will remain. It is probable, however, that they will arrive lon the 18th or 18th, and be here about two or three hours.
 The circular addressed to the Secre- tary of the Business Mems Club is in the hands of MT. Robt. Hamilton. He has interviewed several business men about the matter, and it is the con- census of opinion that Forrest City should do something to entertain them while here. We would suggest that the streets and alleys be put in perfect order: that all automobiles and car riages in the city be lined up at the depot, and that we give them ride over the city, visiting the several manufacturing plants, the Springs, and any other places that may be of interest.
 MT. Hamilton has also canvassed the idea of having meeting on next Wednesday night, promptly at eight o'clock, at the Club Rooms, to discuss the matters to whichiall who are in terested in the progress and adver- tising of Forrest City, are earnestly invited to be present. Talk to your neighbor and friends about this i'm portant matter, and bring them with you to the meeting next Wednesday night at the Club Rooms

 The type made us say last week that the late settlement of Sheriff G. B. Mallory showed the largest collection ever made in this county by s3,000. It was written S30.000, but the exact figures over last year was S26, ,095 3s The gross collections were over sl35.- GOO, and that's an awful lot of money. The sheriff was given credit by the County Court for B ,212 20 for fines charged to him for collection in cases where defendants had beenhired out or the fines were otherwise uncollectable.
 An alarm of fire was turned in yes terday morning at o'clock which called the department to the home of MT. and Mrs. Luther Royal, in the Russell addition, where the chicken 1 house had been in blaze. and which might have quickly communicated to adjoining building, but for the prompt work of MT. Royal, who was awakened and Master Ernest Neel who lives next door. During the day on Wednesday 1 Mrs. Royal had burned several hen s nests in the center of the house and had later as she thought put out all remaining embers. but it seems the 1 fire had slowly and unnoticed spread l to the corners under the nest boxes and there quietly smouldered until after midnight, when it was famed into flame by the delightful breezes which were cooling the night air The fire
 was quickly extinguished. and the damage was slight. amounting to four or five dollars

Teachers Institute.

After an eight days continuous ses- sion the Carroll County Teachers h. stitute adjourned the 14th inst. It can easily and justly be classed among the best institutes ever held in the county.
 About one hundred and fifteen or twenty names were enrolled, probably one third of whom were new members.
 Notwithstanding the intense hot and oppressive weather the work of both instructors and pupils was excellent, a large number of the latter burning the midnight oil" that they might be pre- pared on the next days lessons. The manuel furnished by the State Super intendent vas followed closely, and furnished good basis for guesses at examination questions.
 The County Examiner, R. c. Gibson presided over Che Institute with dignity anl efficiency
 He had the situation perfectly in hand from the opening to.the close, and the splendid success of the Inst ute is due largely to his quiet but effective efforts.
 The following teachers acted as in- structors:
 Theory and Practice Mrs. II, s. Coleman, W. J Tate.
 Reading Miss Edna Bradfeld.
 Agrcuitare-Mr. Irby, Lonnie John son.
 Civil Goyernment-W. J. Tate, Ira Gufley.
 Algebra-W. D. Crawford, J. c. Bunch, Miss Minnie Crawford.
 Spelling Mrs. T. s. Coleman, Miss Jessie Curtis.
 Grammar-H. ?. Burney, Miss Myrtle Orton.
 Arkansas History-Miss Lydia Murphy.
 Physiology Ira Suskey.
 Geography Mrs. Anna George.
 Arithmetic c. Bunch, Mr. Page, W. J. Tate.
 U. s. History ". c. Smith, James Trinble.
 Penmanship Mrs. II, S. Coleman.
 Language Miss Edna Brad6eld.
 Following the Institute the regular June examination was held the 18th and 18th. There were 54 applicants for teachers, license, twenty-six of whom were from the Green Forest High School.

MISS PAULINE WATSON
 OUT OF PIANO COHTES

The name of Miss Pauline Watson will no longer appear in the list of con testants for the piano to be given away by Ben Harbert and others.
 The fact that Miss Watson is related to Mr. Harbert seems to have led some people to believe that she has been or would be favored, and to allay this feeling and to prove that this contest is absolutely on the square, Miss Wat sons name has been withdrawn by mutual consent.
 There is nothing going to be permit ed but absolute fairness in this contest The man in the moon has just as much interest in who wins this elegant in strument as Mir. Harbert or any one associated with him. The young lady who gets the most certificates will get it.
 All tickets out should be in by July 4, as the count will appear in the issue of July 2.

The T telephone Girl.

The telephone girl sits still in her chair. She listens to voices from every where. She knows all our sorrows; she knows all our joys; she knows every girl that is chasing the boys.
 She knows all of our troubles, she knows of our strife; she knows every man who is mean to his wife. She knows every time we are out with the boys. She hears the excuses each fel- low employs.
 She knows every woman who has a past; she knows every man who's in clined to be fast. Tn fact there's secret meath each saucy curl of that demure-looking telephone girl.
 If the telephone girl would tell all she knows, it would turn all our friends into bitterest foes. She would SOW small wind that would soon be gale engulf us in trouble and land us in jail
 She could get good story that, gaining in force, would cause half our wives to sue for divorce; she could get all the churches mixed up in fight, and turn all our days into sorrowing night.
 She could get the whole town in a terrible stew, if she'd tell one-tenth part of the things that she knew Now doesn't it set our brain in whirl, when you think what we owe to the telephone girl.

One of the most remarkable proofs of the unusual laxative merit con- tained in Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is that it is effective not only in peo- pie in the prime of life, but at the extremes of ages. As many letters are received from mothers regarding the cures of children, as from men and women of sixty, seventy and eighty years of age. It must be truly won derful laxative
 In the cure of constipation and bowel trouble in old people it has no equal. It corrects the constipation, dispels the headache, biliousness, gas, drowsiness after eating, etc. People advancing in years should see to it that their bowels move freely, and if they do not to take Dr. Caldwell s

Our little "spiel" short time ago about the care of the public school building seems to have excited no at tenton. Since vacation commenced the house stands windows up and doors open, although Prof. Burney tells us that he closed up the house as securely as he could when the school closed. Young people, boys and others, visit the place as often as they please with out restraint as to conduct. It is too bad that we have no better means Of caring for our public property. It does seem that the board or the council could invocate the aid of law to the ex- tent that people going to the building without business or permission could be prosecuted for trespassing. We wish to insist again that this is seri- ous matter, deserving of attention. It will be too late to consider 1t after something serious has happened.
